B. A three-wheel motorbike with power not exceeding 15 kW.
Explanation
The question is about the scope of a category A1 driving licence. It entitles you to drive a three-wheeled motorcycle with power not exceeding 15 kW - the answer is B.
The Vehicle Drivers Act states that a category A1 driving licence entitles you to drive a motorcycle with an engine capacity not exceeding 125 cm3, power not exceeding 11 kW and a power-to-unladen-mass ratio not exceeding 0.1 kW/kg, a three-wheeled motorcycle with power not exceeding 15 kW, and the vehicles specified for category AM (a moped and a light quadricycle). A slow-moving vehicle (answer A) requires category T or B, and a quadricycle (answer C) requires category B1 or B; category A1 covers only a light quadricycle, that is up to 350 kg and 45 km/h. You can get category A1 from the age of 16, with your parents' consent, and it is the most common start to motorcycle entitlements; if you have A1, for A2 you take only the practical part of the exam.
