FAQ

Everything you need to know

I don't have a bike for my basic handling course, do I need one?+

No — Revs provides training motorcycles for the basic handling course. You do not need to own or bring your own bike. All bikes are fully maintained and meet NZTA requirements.
What happens with my motorcycle theory test?+

You'll need to sit the motorcycle theory test at an AA or VTNZ testing centre before getting your learner licence. Revs can help you prepare, but the theory test is booked and sat independently through those agencies.
What if I'm sick on the day of my course?+

Please let us know as soon as possible. We understand illness happens and will work with you to reschedule. Contact us before your session start time and we'll find a new date that works for you.
What happens if I failed an assessment, but believe that I should have passed?+

If you believe the outcome was incorrect, you have the right to request a review. Speak with your instructor directly after the assessment. Formal appeals can also be lodged with Waka Kotahi (NZTA) through their official CBTA complaints and appeals process.
Can I use my own bike for my restricted or full licence assessment?+

Yes, subject to the bike meeting NZTA's requirements — it must be roadworthy, WoF compliant, and appropriate for the class of licence being assessed. Speak to us ahead of your assessment date to confirm your bike is suitable.
