The requirements for obtaining a motorcycle license vary from state to state. In some states, you can get a motorcycle learner's permit without having a car driver's license. However, in most states, you need to have a valid car driver's license before you can get a motorcycle learner's permit.
Once you have a motorcycle learner's permit, you will need to pass a written test and a riding skills test in order to get a full motorcycle license. The written test covers topics such as motorcycle safety, traffic laws, and motorcycle operation. The riding skills test evaluates your ability to safely operate a motorcycle.
If you pass the written test and the riding skills test, you will be issued a full motorcycle license. This license will allow you to legally operate a motorcycle on public roads.
