    I've got a Royal Alloy scooter 125cc. I'm wondering would it meet the requirements for the A1 driving test? The list of suitable bikes on the RSA website looks as if it hasn't been updated in years. There are similar sized Vespas on the list, so hoping mine would make the cut.

    Fuel Capacity: 11.0L

    Yes your scooter is suitable for a category A1 test.

    Bring a printout of the spec with you on the day if its not on tge RSA list.

    If you passed a test on it you would get a full licence for automatics only (licence code 78)

    Do you think a print out of the link above will suffice, as long as it shows the vehicle specs?

    Thanks

    Yes good idea to bring it with you anyway but you shouldn't need it.
