Unfortunately we only have automatic 50cc scooters for the 16 year olds. If he did the CBT on an auto, he can still ride a geared bike, but just won't have had any training on one. If he does it on his own bike, it needs to be insured, taxed, and MoT'd. Getting reasonably priced insurance so as he can do the CBT on his own bike, normally proves to be the stumbling block. If anyone knows of a good insurance company, please feel free to share with us... ;)
