BEWARE! New regulations about the A licence:
Since June 2nd 2016, anyone from the age 18 who wants to register for a motorbike licence is subject to an intermediate licence, the A2 licence. This intermediate licence limits to 47.6 horsepower the authorised power of the vehicle over a two-year period. After these 2 years, a compulsory training, which lasts 7 hours, is required if you want to be able to drive a more powerful motorbike. At the end of the training, you will receive a certificate allowing you to drive a vehicle with a horsepower higher than 47.6.
