Motorcycle Theory Test — Study Guide

A topic-by-topic look at what you need to know for the Motorcycle Theory Test. Each guide ends with a free quiz.

What to do at the scene of a road traffic collision — first aid, warning devices, reporting and safety.

Staying focused: observation, anticipation, concentration and avoiding distraction and fatigue.

Considerate driving, close following, courtesy and how your attitude affects safety.

Licences, insurance, MOT, vehicle tax and the paperwork you need by law.

Spotting and reacting to developing hazards — children, cyclists, animals, weather and your own condition.

Joining and leaving, lane discipline, speed limits, hard shoulders and smart motorway signals.

Sharing the road with lorries, buses, trams, tractors and bikes.

Sign shapes and colours — orders, warnings, information, direction signs and road markings.

Junctions, roundabouts, parking, speed limits and who has priority.

Stopping distances, braking in rain or ice, and the two-second rule.

Pre-ride checks, tyres, lights, protective clothing and reporting defects.

Cornering, braking, riding in poor weather and on different road surfaces.

Pillion passengers, panniers, top boxes, towing and the effect of a load on handling.

Pedestrians, cyclists, motorcyclists, horse riders and older or disabled road users.

Questions that are not used in Northern Ireland tests. The app keeps them out of the mock test so a mock is fair wherever you sit the test.
