DAS
Direct Access
BIKE-IT has cumulatively more DAS
experience in the Glasgow area than any other Motorcycle Rider Training school. The majority of our instructors
were amongst the first qualified in DAS Training.
In Fife, our
main instructor has 16 years training experience, and was one of the
first to pass the Direct Access assessments.
What is DAS?
Direct Access training gives those who are
eligible access to riding larger motorcycles without restriction
immediately after passing their practical test. To check if you are
eligible see our Quick Guide.
CBT must always be taken before
beginning a DAS training course and in the interest of safety your
initial training will be in our compound. This is to enable the
instructor to assess your skill and to ensure you are ready to handle
the open road safely. You will normally progress to the larger bike
once you are familiar, and have some experience on the 125cc bike. This
will depend on how you progress and your safety will be our
consideration for this.
The DAS course can be taken in a variety
of ways depending upon your experience and circumstances. The courses
we offer are detailed in the list BIKE-IT Prices and further
information can be obtained by contacting us.
You can practice for your DAS practical
test on any size motorcycle that exceeds the learner specification and your
test must be taken on a machine of at least 46.6bhp. When training you
must be accompanied at all times by an instructor and take all the
usual safety precautions. This includes wearing reflective clothing and
radio headsets to keep you in contact with the instructor. If you want
to practice on your own machine this will require an instructor to
collect you, ask for information about this service.
DAS training is tailored to suit an
individuals needs. It is best to come and talk to one of our instructors
about what course of action would be best to suit you.
Direct access is not suitable for everyone
and we reserve the right to restrict to training on a 125cc bike where
safety becomes a concern. Full terms and conditions apply.
