Gaining a motorcycle licence might be about to get easier
Gaining a motorcycle licence currently is a drawn-out, expensive, and complex task, although it might be about to get a bit more simple

"Compared to learning to drive a car, passing your full motorcycle test can also be prohibitively expensive, not to mention time-consuming. Estimates from various training bodies we spoke to placed the cost of gaining your bike licence at anything from £800 to £1,200. These are all factors that current motorcyclists, and lobbyists like the Motorcycle Action Group (MAG), think needs to change"................................
Not sure I could go through what rider's endure in the UK to get a license. Not suggesting training is a bad thing.
I looked for per capita comparisons between the UK and the Wild West (USA) related to Moto safety and couldn't find them. UK is a more densely populated country so might not be a perfect comparison.
Would you go through a tiered licensing process like the UKs if you had to do it again? I guess my vote would be "only begrudgingly".
Comes down to ...........If you need insurance to protect your assets, then your wasting your money on it with no license.
