FAQs

What do I need?

A valid CBT (DL196) these are valid for two years from date of issue.

A Provisional or Full UK licence or accepted foreign equivalent.

Your own safety helmet.

What bikes do you stock?

We only currently offer Honda CBF 125’s but will offer Automatics soon. For larger bikes please contact another provider.

I am doing my full licence, when is a good time to hire a 125cc to help with my training?

Ideally after your CBT course however at any point during your training will be beneficial to help you pass your tests first time.

Can I extend my hire?

Yes you can extend your hire, simply log in to your account and click on “orders”. On your previous booking click on “View”, then scroll down to Extend Hire and select your preferred Return date and time. The cost will then be calculated.

I want to do delivery riding can I hire your bike?

Yes you can, we will need to remove our bike from our insurance and transfer this over to your own cover. Self drive hire and Motorcycle school policies do not allow delivery riders to be covered.

What happens if the bike breaks down?

In the unlikely event of a mechanical issue we provide 24 hour cover through the RAC. So we can pick up it and then exchange it for you on return. If you are far away and need an overnight stay this can be organised with our cover or a return journey to your home address.

I have a driving conviction, can I still hire?

In short yes, but we may need to run this through our insurance company first. Please email us with the details of your claims or convictions and we can get back to you prior to your booking.

I'm 17 years old am I too young to hire?

Providing you have a valid CBT and a Provisional UK licence yes you can.

Only if you hold a full Motorcycle licence or foreign equivalent valid here in the UK.

Pedrfo Ribiero

Great choice! Bike was in tip top condition and Nick accommodated for some less than ideal times for the pick up and return. Couldn't have expected any better! Highly recommend!

Kody Peace

I rented a 125cc motorcycle the week leading up to my mod 2 test. Nick was super helpful and a joy to deal with. I will definitely rent a bike through BCK again

K Shannon

Fantastic Service. Hired a bike from BCK after passing my CBT to get more road experience/confidence. Nick was really helpful and accommodating with pickup and drop off times. Can't recommend enough!

Carsten

I rented a Honda CBF 125 from Nick in preparation for MOD1 and MOD2. This was key to passing the tests quickly. Nick provided me with expert knowledge before leaving me with the bike. Highly recommend using BCK motorcycles to anyone.

Tie Dang Gong

Rented one've the hyper-smart 125's for a week between training, putting a few miles under my belt before mod 2; wouldn't've passed without it! Great option to have if you've a spare dollar, great bike from Nick, A-grade service.
