What license do i need to ride motorbike?
Answers:
In the UK. You need a CBT (compulsary basic training) cert first. But have a look at the site below for the full details.
Compulsory Basic Training (CBT)
Motorcycles, scooters and mopeds
You must complete compulsory basic training [CBT] before riding a moped or motorcycle (with or without sidecar) on the road. However, you may ride on a road under the supervision of an approved instructor as part of that training course.
Your motorcycle dealer or local council road safety officer can give information on local training schemes, or see adverts in local papers and telephone directories
You need a full driving licence to ride a proper motorbike (and take a motorbike test), but you can ride a moped on a provisional licence with 'L' plates on.
it depends on the type of bike and how powerful it is, for some bikes you need to be over 21 and have a full licence, others you dont. find out what kind of bike you plan to ride first
all learner moped and motorcycle riders irrespective of when a licence was issued must have completed a Compulsory Basic Training [CBT] course before riding a moped or motorcycle.
When you successfully complete CBT you will get a Certificate of Completion [DL196] which is valid for 3 years. Certificates issued before 1 July 1996 expired on 30 June 1999. The requirement to complete CBT does not apply those riders who are :
learning to ride a motorcycle and who have already obtained full moped entitlement as a result of passing a moped test on or after 1 December 1990, or
riding a moped with full entitlement given automatically with a full car licence.
for a larger bike you need a 'big bike' test. You need to show you are confident on a big bike and if you are a short person you may have problems.
if you have a full uk car licence then you can jump straight onto a 50cc moped. Wanna ride anything larger then a test of some form is compulsary.
you need a cbt certificate that covers you for about 2 years in which time you will have to take a full test.if you take it on your 125 you will be restricted to 33bhp for 2 years after which time you can ride a more powerful bike.take your test on a bike with more then 50bhp then you can ride any size but i do know that law will be changing again in the next couple of years

You don't say what licence you have so can't say, contrary to whats been said about mopeds you only have full moped licence via a full car licence is you passed test before 2000, after which you still need cbt.
