Yeah. Seems like it. Lessons are very limited. Good thing is that we are back to WFH by default for now.

COE prices are making motorcycles too expensive even for daily transport now though. Really headache with the 8,xxx COE. Never been this high during the history of CAT D COE..

Finally passed my Class 2 at CDC yesterday, weather was good, total group about 30 pax. Understand from instructor there is another Class 2/2A TP test today. Very rare to have twice a week but due to huge backlog from COVID lockdown, they have had to run more TP test dates. Not sure if same for the other driving centres also or not..

10 people taking Class 2, remaining 20 taking Class 2A. From what i notice..

• Class 2 (10 pax) - 1 absent, 2 failures, 7 passes
• Class 2A (20 pax) - 0 absent, 5 failures, 15 passes

Just want to share / record my cost and experience here.. Had to log in to my CDC before they updated the results because once you pass TP, they log you out of the system and you will be unable to log in again. I took 2 tries to pass TP.. If you can clear in 1 try then it might be slightly cheaper.

Total cost (this is for Comfort Driving Centre):

• Registration fee - $10
• Enrolment fee - $85.60
• Class 2 orientation (compulsory) - $38.52
• Class 2 lesson 1 - $41.73 (pass on 1st try)
• Class 2 lesson 2 - $38.52 (pass on 1st try)
• Class 2 lesson 3 - $41.73 (pass on 1st try)
• Bike simulator 1 - $26.54
• Bike simulator 2 - $26.54
• Bike simulator 3 - $26.54
• Circuit revision - $41.73
• TP test 1 (failed) - $69.55 + $33 (warm up + actual test)
• Re-training (compulsory if fail TP) - $38.52
• Circuit revision - $41.73
• TP test 2 (passed) - $69.55 + $33 (warm up + actual test)
• Others (top up fee) - $0.90 X 2

TOTAL - $664.60!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I never expected Class 2 to cost so much and this is with passing every lesson 1st try but TP 2 times. Even with perfect record (if pass TP 1st time)... the CHEAPEST cost to get Class 2 license will be $480.90!!!!!!!!!

I was reading old threads here in the past.... Class 2A/2 if you clear all one time can be as cheap as 100+ or 200+.. The cost has indeed increase by ALOT!!!

Of course the new compulsory simulator sessions didn't help....... They cost $26.54 each.

Anyone else taking Class 2 at the other centres... or can remember how much you spent in the past?

Getting license in Singapore now is really expensive!!

 Btw to all taking their license... Good luck..... Complete your journey..... And you will get there eventually!!

Anyway.. finally pass liao.... don't have to go back to driving school ever!!!!!!!!

Hi bro,
Just curious, how many days did it took you to complete it? What is the orientation prac about? For CDC, do we need to buy our own guards? Hows is the test route like? Thanks in advance

@Salman Shariff

On average most riders take 2-4 months to clear Class 2A/2 as it has lesser lessons than Class 2B.

Orientation prac is just the 1st lesson to familiarise yourself with CDC, where to go for lessons, what to expect, what time to reach, etc. Nothing much but it is required.

Yes CDC need to buy your own guards.

There is no Road test route for Class 2A/2, only for Class 2B. For the circuit test route, let me see if i can find the diagram floating around here somewhere.

Are you going for your Class 2 soon?

@abrams75 Absolutely! Finish the journey, the feeling is amazing once you clear all the licenses knowing that you can ride *ANY* motorcycle on the roads without limitation. Go for it!

Alright, i see.

Hmmm, because i see other schools don't have a "orientation prac". Straight to the matter, 3 pracs and TP.

Noted!

Thank you so much for the photo!

Yes i am considering to enrol soon. Just thinking if CDC is worth it as i live at north east region.

May consider ssdc woodlands. Quite fast. I got my class 2 within two months.

Hi, for CDC what kind of bike they use for class 2 license?

I just got my class 2A in SSDC, their test dates a lot but it's too far for me, so just checking whether their class 2 bike is same as CDC, wondering is it worth it to go back to SSDC?

They use the Yamaha MT-07 at CDC for class2.

 

Congrats on getting your 2A! If im not wrong SSDC uses the Honda NC700. From personal experience, SSDC instructors are quite strict. On the other hand, CDC instructors are the friendliest.

Depends on where you stay. Personally, convenience is a little more important. Now due to COVID all the test dates are quite random.

You can check on the individual test centres test dates here:

Good luck!

P.S. Another bro answered above, for CDC, Class 2A - Yamaha MT-03, Class 2 - Yamaha MT-07

Nice share here.

With inflation, everything just gets more n more expensive.

Wonder how much it will cost in 2022.

Would be interesting to have a YoY comparison.
