      Yeah, the way it works around here is that every licence is age-limited. So you can get an A1 at 18, which allows you to ride a 125. A2 at 20, which allows you to ride up to 35kw I believe, and full A at 24 (or 22, and owner of an A2 licence for 2 years).

        Is this just for Belgium or all of Europe?

        How new is this? Was this reformed after brexit?

        35kw is a very strange limitation I wonder how they came to that number.

          It is generally standardised across Europe as far as I know, although the age limits can differ across countries.
          No idea when this was introduced as I never really looked into it. And I don’t really know why they chose 35kw either, but they had to draw the line somewhere, I suppose. :)
