even if you get your bike licence isn't it tied to your normal drivers licence thus if you loose your car licence you also loose your bike licence?

Yep. Same license, same license number, same everything. Only difference is your license now has "License Class C, R" on it instead of just C.

Also, loose != lose.

if you have a valid drivers licence (unrestricted) and are over 25 don't you get a separate set of points for the bike licence part of it ? Or would I still have say 11 demerits on the bike licence if that's how many I have on the car licence ?

No.

It is the same licence, and same points. If you have a provisional rider licence and go over the provisional point limit, your rider licence will be suspended. You will still be able to drive a car if you have less than 12 points on your licence altogether..
