MOTORCYCLE CHECK RIDE COURSE
Check Ride (CR)
The Check Ride stage, is also mandatory, can be undertaken at any time following the issue of your learner permit.
The Check Ride must be taken at least one calendar month before obtaining your motorcycle license. It consists of 3.5hrs of training on-road and on our training range.
This course is designed as a preparatory stage which will enable the rider to ensure that his/her road safety skills and practical skills are of a sufficient level to allow safe and successful completion of the Motorcycle Licence Assessment (MLA) which can be taken one month after completion of the Check Ride stage.* (other conditions apply).
The Check Ride is conducted with our normal 5 to 1 Student/Instructor ratio and the first stage is a number of exercises conducted on our training range covering correct steering inputs, effective use of vision and eye direction, braking and cornering techniques and simulated road-riding exercises.
These exercises are then followed by a group road-ride in varying, typical road and traffic conditions with each student completing “lead and follow” stages with our instructor, covering aspects such as:
- Low speed maneuvering skills
- Correct Lane Positioning
- Establishing Crash Avoidance Space
- Identifying Main Crash Hazards for Motorcyclists
- Buffering in Traffic
- Correct use of Mirrors and Head checks
- Correct use of all controls
The instructor will provide each student with a feedback sheet on completion of the Check Ride which will outline any areas which may require attention and practice prior to undertaking the Motorcycle Licence Assessment.
N.B. The Check Ride Course is ideal as a refresher course for returning riders who still hold a current Motorcycle Licence but have not ridden for some period of time

I originally did my Victorian Learners Permit with Ride-Tek and from that experience I booked in to do my full P’s purely due to the service. I got my Motorbike Licence!

Ride-Tek do a great job of training riders. They don’t just deliver a generic program, but assess where your skills and confidence are at and tweak the motorcycle training to your needs.
