Highly doubt it.

They should be checking your licence as a condition of insurance etc, so it depends if you are asking because you havent done a bike test (in which case please do before going on track) or you've been banned (in which case using that copy you kept before the ban is a Bad Thing, m'kay)

IIRC you could always do it using an MSA licence instead of a DVLA one.

Hottrax and I think another company called Focussed events don't require bike licences. You have to sign a disclaimer saying you're a decent rider on a safe well maintained bike. Then if you cause carnage it's easier for them to palm the legal action off onto you.

Call them to be sure though, but it's definitely possible. I did one about 4 years ago at mallory and now GP rider Bradley Smith was there on his priller 125. He wasted me on my GSXR600. Plus all of my mates on a 996S, a ZX10R and a Daytona 600.

if you dont have a license do you really think you are skilled enough to handle one at speed on a circuit?
