I think this is right.

Q-ride only allows upgrade to a full license if you have a full car license
I think?!

I'm sure being under 25 is different too (but I can't recall what the
difference is).

(Although I'd love another ride on my GTS860 or my mach111.... mind you;
it might shatter a few comforting personal myths!)

You can only go straight onto a bike over 250cc if you have held a full car
licence for 3 years.

And "If you obtain your restricted (class RE) motorbike licence through
Q-RIDE, you can learn to ride an unrestricted (class R) motorbike
immediately if you re-enrol in Q-RIDE. However, if you have not held a car
licence for at least three years, you cannot apply for the unrestricted
(class R) licence until you have held the restricted (class RE) for one
year."
