Power matters
A2 suitability is based on motorcycle power output and power-to-weight ratio, not just engine size.

A2 Motorbikes For Sale
Looking for an A2-friendly motorbike? Browse used bikes between 200cc and 500cc at SuperBike Factory that may be suitable for A2 licence riders.
A2 licence suitability is based on power output and power-to-weight ratio, not engine size alone, so you’ll need to double check the bike’s specification before buying.
What is an A2 motorbike?
An A2 motorbike is a motorcycle that can be ridden on an A2 licence, provided it meets the required power and power-to-weight limits. Because A2 suitability depends on more than engine size, not every bike in a certain cc range will automatically be A2 legal.
Important: We don’t currently hold horsepower data for every bike in stock, so we can’t guarantee that every 200cc to 500cc motorbike shown will be A2 licence suitable. Please check the bike’s power output, restriction options and licence suitability before buying.
Some bikes may be restricted
Some larger bikes may be A2 suitable if correctly restricted, but this must be checked before purchase.
Always check first
Before buying, confirm the exact bike’s power, restriction status and whether it is suitable for your licence.
