What a rider practice test puts in front of you
A practice test here is a full-length rider set: 45 questions mixed across all 12 subjects, sat in one go, and marked at the end so you can see which subjects cost you. Sit it the way you would sit the real thing, straight through, without stopping to look a rule up. The moment you check an answer mid-set you have turned it into study, and the mark stops telling you anything. There are 13 of these sets, 45 questions each, 585 questions in total. The Rider Knowledge Test itself is set and run by Transport for NSW, and it uses its own rules rather than the car test's, which is why the bike subjects are here and the car ones are not.
A cycle that actually moves you forward
Re-sitting the same set teaches you that set. The cycle below keeps handing you new information instead, which is the only thing that changes your result.
- 1
Open Test 1 with nothing revised
A clean score on day one would tell you nothing. The point of the first set is to find the gaps.
- 2
Write the subject beside every miss
Not the question, the subject. That short list is your study plan for the week.
- 3
Go and fix those subjects
Work the matching topic sets until the rule arrives before the options do.
- 4
Move to the next test, never the same one
A set you have already sat rewards memory. A fresh set rewards understanding.
The 13 practice tests on this page
The 13 practice tests below each run as a full-length set of 45 questions in the shape of the real rider test. Every one is free and there is no limit on how often you re-sit. Start at Test 1, sit it cold, then work through the rest in order as your weak subjects tighten up. Each set mixes the subjects rather than grouping them, so you also practise switching between topics, which is its own small skill under pressure. A set is marked as soon as you finish it, with your answers tallied by subject, so the next thing to study is obvious. Thirteen sets gives you enough fresh material to keep testing right up to the week you book, without ever re-running one you already remember.

Where the 585 questions come from
The sets draw across all 12 rider subjects. Bike Specific is the largest pool at 92 questions, Intersections next at 84, and Rider Safety at 68. The nine shorter subjects fill out the rest of the mix. Because every set is mixed, a bike rule can be followed by a sign and then a give-way question with nothing in between, and that is exactly how the real sitting feels: no warning, no grouping, no chance to settle into one way of thinking. The full subject list with every count sits on the motorbike topic practice page.
Bike Specific
The rules that only exist on two wheels: position in a lane, filtering, what you may carry.
Intersections
Give way, turning and right of way, met from a narrower and less visible vehicle.
Rider Safety
Protective gear, being seen, braking on two wheels and reading the road surface.
What the mark at the end tells you
The mark on a practice test counts the answers you gave here and nothing else. Read it as a diagnostic, not a verdict. A 40 with three bike questions wrong is more useful to you than a 43 you cannot explain, because it points at a subject. What matters is where the misses cluster. One scrappy set does not mean you are not ready, and one strong set does not mean you are: the mock tests are the readiness gauge, not a single practice run.
After a clean run
When two practice tests in a row come back clean, move up to the mock tests: 8 sets of 45 questions each, sat in one unbroken run, which is the closest rehearsal here to the real thing. Keep the topic sets for anything still catching you, and work the bike subjects even when a test has not singled them out. Spotting hazards is a separate skill again, and this site's hazard clips are at hazard clips at /quiz/hpt. One thing worth knowing: the questions in every set here follow NSW road rules, so if you will sit the test in another state, check its own rules with the authority there.
