I don't know where you live, but I'm in Illinois and here you can get a learners permit, get someone to ride w/you to the dmv, take the written test and then they go outside and set up some orange cones for obstacles to run around. Easy...you can do it especially since you've rode before. Also I think some states if not all have classes that you can take instead of dmv? All my friends have just went to the dmv. Good Luck!

The MSF classes in most states that I know of are accepted towards getting a permit, and it means less insurance costs. You will still need to do the written test. I hear some states accept the MSF certificate in lieu of the skills test.

It's the same process. Take a learners permit test, take a drivers test. Go to your local DMV and fill out the forms.A couple of things about the drivers test -
You have to supply the bike for the test.
The bike has to be fully registered and insured.
"You" cannot ride the bike to the drivers test.
You have to supply a driver and automobile to drive the inspector while he's grading your test.
When I first got my license, I didn't know anyone with a bike or license. I paid a reduced fee to a motorcycle driver training course to help me with my drivers test..
In the Uk you can do a direct access course, this is 1 weeks training on a 500cc bike, at the end of the training you go straight into your test. Before any of this you need to complete a CBT course (compulsory basic training).
How do I take out the airbox on a 2001 Honda F4i?
The test criteria is changing soon with more parts of the test taken off road eg. emergency stop, this will now be done off road and your speed measured to make sure you are doing 30 mph. Hope this helps. By the way the Direct Access Course is fantastic.
The easiest way would be to go to a MSF course. Motorcycle Safety Foundation. They offer classes regularly either 2-4 days (evenings) during the week or 2 day course on the weekends. Once you pass their course, you will automatically have your license. All you have to do then, is send the certificate of passing the course into your state's DMV. If you already have a license to drive a car, then, to get a permit, all you need to do, in most states is pay the $10 or so for a motorcycle permit. With a permit, you can operate a motorcycle, but can't carry passengers. You'll need a permit to take a MSF course.
Your best bet is to call your local Department of Motor Vehicles office and ask them. They will be able to tell you exactly what you need to do.

First, decide which bike you feel best on. Dont let ignorant people try to sell you a certain brand name just because its popular. Look in the papers, what do you see most of for sale? thats the ones to avoid cause their selling them. If its a good bike, they aint gonna sell it. when you get ready to take your driving test, go to a small small hick town and your driving test will be much easier.

Hi AmandaI am a born again biker (too old to state my age) however I recently took my test by using 'Direct Access' on a 500cc bike, which allows you to drive mororcycles over 33bhp. Just type into your Web search engine 'Direct Access' - Can I offer you some advise! I originally took my lessons from a driving school in Leeds (bunch of Idiots). They taught me the wrong way (which cost me in excess of £1000) - I eventually found a good tutor - Please Please.. DO YOUR HOMEWORK - seek out a professional riding school or Tutor. Being taught incorrectly is not only costly but downright dangerous (I know from my experience). - I do hope that you take the test and pass [Welcome to the biking community]

Where can i get a blue print to make my own bike like a ninja?
Where are you?? UK, USA, OZ?I got gas in the face from Harley gas tank, do these tanks have a overflow line?
Here in PA they offer free motorcycle safety course and provide motorcycles for the course, They are 250's and most of them are Honda Shadows. These are good training cycles and are not very expensive. However, if this will be your first bike buy used and pay cash, get the experience of riding before moving up to bigger and more expensive bikes. I have had friends who bought big bikes like Goldwings and rode only a few times then selling them at a loss because they weren't ready for a big bike. Nothing wrong with starting small and working up to bigger later on. In fact the smaller bike will normally sell quicker when you are ready to move up, then use the money for your next bike. In my class, 5 people never even sat on a motorcycle before and graduated with no problems, you do need to get a motorcycle permit first before signing up for the safety course. The course takes you from starting and learning how to use brakes, clutch, and lights & horn to walking the bike and then to actually riding and stopping. Was alot of fun even for me as an experienced rider. I highly recommend it! Contact your local Christian Motorcyclist Association, you will find members who will help you learn and decide the best bike for you. You can Yahoo seach "Christian Motorcyclist Association".Tired of hearing, "I've got 20+ years experience"!?

go to your local bmv, get a motorcycle permit pack and study book, take the test and get your permit, then find a bike you can handle, get the feel of the bike, and when you're ready go take your license skills test, don't be nervous, it's actually not as hard as you may think.More Questions & Answers ...
