Protective gear
We provide all necessary gear. If you prefer your own, it must be suitable for motorcycle riding. It should include abrasion-resistant clothing with knee and elbow protection, sturdy boots, gloves, a back protector and a helmet. All gear must be in good condition. We do not compensate for damaged equipment.
We strongly recommend a helmet liner for everyone’s comfort, and provide one free of charge. A base layer under your protective gear is comfortable and hygienic, keeping you warm on cold days and helping you stay cool in warm weather. Bring a change of clothes on hot days, as riding can make you sweat.
Which licence: A1, A2 or A?
Your age and the motorcycle you want to ride determine the appropriate category. Here we compare licences for two-wheeled motorcycles. These ages are for obtaining a licence; different age limits apply to learner riding.
A1 – light motorcycle
- Age: from 16.
- Motorcycle: maximum 11 kW and, for combustion engines, maximum 125 cm³.
- Power-to-weight ratio: maximum 0.1 kW per kilogram of kerb weight.
View all requirements and learner-riding rules for category A1 at Transportstyrelsen.
A2 – medium motorcycle
- Age: from 18.
- Motorcycle: maximum 35 kW. If power is restricted, the original output may not exceed twice the restricted output: a maximum of 70 kW when restricted to 35 kW.
- Power-to-weight ratio: maximum 0.2 kW per kilogram of kerb weight.
View all requirements and learner-riding rules for category A2 at Transportstyrelsen.
A – heavy motorcycle
- Age: from 24, or from 20 if you have held category A2 for at least two years.
- Motorcycle: all two-wheeled motorcycles, with no engine capacity or power limit.
- Power-to-weight ratio: no upper limit for this category.

Already hold A1 or A2?
To upgrade from A1 to A2 or A, or from A2 to A, you need a new practical driving test but no new theory test. You must still meet the age requirement for the new category.
If you completed risk training for your previous motorcycle licence, you normally do not need to repeat it. If you obtained A1 before 1 November 2009, you must complete both risk training parts. Plan your licence upgrade with us.
Six steps to your motorcycle licence
Here is the route to your first motorcycle licence. If you already hold A1 or A2, the theory and risk training exemptions above apply.
You need a valid group 1 learner’s permit (körkortstillstånd) for motorcycle training. The application includes a health declaration and eyesight certificate. Book an eyesight test with an optician and ask about the price and how the certificate is submitted.
Apply for a learner’s permit at Transportstyrelsen. An existing valid group 1 permit also covers motorcycles.
Compare motorcycle packages and lessons. When buying training online, enter the student’s details at checkout. You do not need a separate enrolment form afterwards. We help plan your lessons around your experience and chosen category. Unsure where to start? Contact us for guidance.
Start theory early and practise riding skills on the manoeuvring track and in traffic. Lessons build on what you already know. You can combine them with private practice if you meet the age requirement and hold a valid learner’s permit and have an approved private supervisor.
See the practical motorcycle training modules and read about theory training.
Both motorcycle risk training parts must be completed and valid when you take the tests. Car risk training is not valid for motorcycles.
- Risk 1: alcohol, drugs, tiredness and risky behaviour. About 3 hours with us.
- Risk 2: speed, safety and riding in different conditions. About 4 hours with us. You must be able to control the motorcycle safely before taking part.
Risk training is valid until you obtain your licence, for a maximum of five years. Motorcycle Risk 1 and 2: requirements and booking.
Take the theory test at Trafikverket after completing risk training. A passed motorcycle theory test is valid for one year. Plan your practical test so you can pass within that period.
You are photographed before the theory test and must bring valid ID. Read Trafikverket’s motorcycle test information.
Once you have passed theory and are ready, you demonstrate safe motorcycle control and riding in traffic. The test includes:
- A motorcycle safety check.
- Manoeuvres at low and high speed, and braking.
- Riding in traffic.
Plan a motorcycle for the test with us well in advance and read your Trafikverket booking confirmation. Check your package to see what is included.
Motorcycle licence questions
It depends on your experience, how often you can practise and how training and tests can be scheduled. We help plan the training to suit your circumstances. Plan your training with us.
It varies from person to person, depending on your experience, how often you ride and whether you can practise privately between lessons. Moped or off-road riding experience can help with motorcycle control, while car driving experience can help you read traffic.
After your first lesson, you and your instructor review your skills and what needs more practice. You then receive a personal estimate of how many lessons you may need.
Motorcycle Risk 1 and Risk 2 are separate parts of the training. Check each package page to see whether they are included.
Yes, we also teach beginners. In a taster lesson, you ride in controlled conditions with an instructor. We have low-seat motorcycles and provide a riding suit, helmet, boots and gloves.
Yes. Your instructor helps develop your riding skills and plan what to practise next. Private practice requires an approved supervisor and the appropriate learner’s permit.
You can buy more lessons. The number depends on your progress; a package does not guarantee that you will be test-ready once you have used its lessons. See current motorcycle prices and terms in the price list – choose Motorcycle.
