Local Test Centre
Unlike most training schools we have a Multi-Purpose Test Centre (MPTC) within half a mile of our motorcycle training centre. This means no time wasted travelling trying get to the test centre, you will also be able to do all your motorcycle training within the area you will be tested in. Module 1 (MOD 1) will take place at the MPTC and Module 2 (MOD 2) will take place out on the roads within Kirkcaldy. Beware of schools who are further away from the test centres. They often cut corners and give you no pre-test warm up before your MOD1 and MOD2 tests. They simply drop a bike off at the test centre and expect you to make your own way there! In some cases you can even end up sitting your test in an unfamiliar area.
