What is the knowledge?

In order for a prospective driver to obtain a Licence to operate a black cab in London, they must first complete a course of study known as 'The Knowledge'. The purpose of this course is for them to demonstrate that they know the roads, routes and places of London.

Using a low cost bike from motorbike-warehouse.co.uk is a sensible option as this will reduce the traditionally high costs associated with the Knowledge, the scooter or motorcycle can still be kept after the course has been completed as a secondary or primary form of transport.

What vehicles do we recommend?

If you browse our product pages you will see here at motorbike-warehouse.co.uk we have a huge range of scooters and motorcycles. Some of these can be used for the Knowledge.

The vehicles we offer that are suitable for the Knowledge are tried, tested and trusted by hundreds of people who complete the Knowledge every year.

We have models to suit everyone’s pocket so just give us a call and we will be happy to help! Not only do we have quality used Hondas and Yamahas, we also have new Kymco motorcycles which are perfect for the job. For those who are conscious about how much they are spending we have new and used Honda CG125 replicas, but don’t worry, they are of a tried and tested design with awesome reliability and a bulletproof engine.

We also stock Suzuki GN125 replicas, this particular design has been around since the 1970’s. Not a lot has changed and our version has a very high percentage of interchangeable parts with the Suzuki version! We also have Honda cub 90 and Innova style scooters – again tried and tested designs with millions of units sold worldwide. Our friends in the Far East have taken these designs and given them a new modern twist with prices to make you wonder how they actually do it!

All of these models from any of our preferred brands are the perfect tool to get you around when learning The Knowledge. We can supply you with motorbike-warehouse.co.uk's Motorcycle Knowledge Kit*, which includes:

• A Knowledge Board, perfect for displaying your map safely and securely whilst riding (* fitted free).
