In NSW there is the "LAM"s scheme (learner approved motorcycles) which means learners can ride bikes on a certain list. The maximum is 660cc. I rode the above bike for a year and a half on my P's and L's and it is a 650. The approved bikes are based on power to weight ratio of less than (i think) 150kw per tonne.

You sit a course and a computer test to get your l's. Then you can ride completely by your self (no supervisor or whatever). P's is another course. Full liscence you just pay.

I think Victoria's system is simliar.

Just trying to clear it up a bit
