Lightning Motorcycle Training

Enhanced Rider Scheme

The Driving Standards Agency, in conjunction with the motorcycle industry, have devised a new package of training known as the Enhanced Rider Scheme (ERS).

The scheme is intended to benefit all bike riders who have a full motorcycle licence, irrespective to the size of bike, or the experience level of the rider. You will not need to take a test or even any training if your skills are assessed as satisfactory. You will also earn discounts on your insurance as a result.

Any rider who shows the required level of competency on training delivered by a registered post-test motorcycle trainer ( RPMT ) will receive an Enhanced Rider Insurance Certificate (ERIC). They can present this certificate to major insurers to be in line for possible discounts. Further, they will also be eligible for continued discounts by receiving additional developmental training in future years. This applies to ALL riders taking RPMT training such as new riders, experienced riders and those returning to riding after a break.

The insurers sponsoring the scheme are: AA Insurance, Bennett's Insurance, Bikesure, Carole Nash, Chandler Direct, CIA Ins, Devitt, E Bike, MCE Ins, Motorcycle Direct, Norwich Union Direct and Lexham.
