Complete the Self-Analysis Questionnaire below to be confident that you are familiar with all areas that will be tested in your motorcycle riding assessment.
From the Self-Assessment Questionnaire, you may determine some areas that you are not familiar with or are not competent in to the standard required to qualify you for a licence. If this is the case, contact InBalance Motorbike Training for assistance in enrolling you in the appropriate course lesson(s).
However if you feel that you could successfully complete a Q-Ride assessment provided by a Registered Service Provider against the course competencies below you may elect to be assessed straight away.
