Hello, unfortunately, the many entries in the forums don’t really bring me any further… I have had the 1B since 1987, i.e. today’s A1, 125ccm to 15hp without speed limit. For years I have been thinking about making the big, open motorcycle driver’s license A, but this prevented me from having the seemingly high costs. Some people, who after years of car driver’s license retook the A, gave me prices of 1000€ and more. It seems that since 2013 it is cheaper to make the A when you already have the A1. Is that right? – must you prove your 125 driving skills for this, by long-term registration of a 125 or similar? I had never owned a 125er, only occasionally borrowed one. – is for the A-training for the driving hours / driving test protective clothing besides the helmet (is available) obligatory and if yes, which one? Which one must also count at the costs. – with which costs of the F ahrschule incl. exam you have to calculate? Are there costs from 400 to 500€ realistic? That would be a lot cheaper than the costs I had originally expected. Thanks for the explanation…
