Do I need a motorcycle license to ride a street legal dirt bike?
I'm thinking of purchasing a small 125cc dirt bike does about 67 miles a hour its completely street legal from the Honda dealer ship getting it off my buddy can I drive it with my regular class c licences or will I have to go through the motorcycle licences process
If you're going to ride it ON THE STREET, then you need a motorcycle operator's license AND a license plate on the bike! You'll need insurance too.
Are you going to get caught driving it? You don't say.
NO. As long as you ride offroad on private property. Riding on street may be another story depending on where you ride it, what country/state/province are you planning to ride it? How old are you? How long have you had your class C/car license. Some post indicate state tolerates under 150 cc motorcycle ridden with just car license, basic license covers cars, light commercial vehicles under 10,000 pounds gross weight, motorcycles not allowed on interstate meaning under 150cc in USA by federal laws. States moped/light motorcycle licensed vehicle OK to ride if over 21 with basic license. Locally 'Mopeds' are riden with basic license, motorcycle endorsement not needed. Couple states no license at all needed for 'Mopeds' Ohio and Colorado have been noted, Arkansas and Indiana until until 2 years ago with some 'grandfathered' riders still not having drivers license when riding them. SO, Wo Bist Du? Where are you?
Unless it is ridden solely on private property, you must get a license.
- Where in eastern PA can I legally ride my dirt bike? (trails/parks)? So I've been riding my 1979 Honda XL for a few months now (first bike) and I'm really interested in riding offroad now. The only place I can ride dirt right now is at a construction site down the street. Where are there any trails or parks that I can legally ride at in eastern PA or within a reasonable distance of West Chester, PA. (or any places that aren't so legal but fun to ride at… Haha)
- What size dirt bike should I ride? I'm about 5'10" and only 120lbs. I have a little riding experience from riding a friends bike. But I want to get my first dirt bike of my own now. I open to any brand but I was thinking yamaha or honda.
- KTM 450 EXC 2016 Street Legal? The KTM 450 EXC 2016 is one sexy bike, no doubt. But, even though it says Enduro, I do not see turn signals or mirrors. My dad wants to get this bike over the honda crf 250l. But he wants to see if it is street legal for CA. I just want to see if this bike can be made street legal. Yay or nae?
- Is a 1980 Honda cm400t a good beginner bike? I'm just looking for something that I can learn how to ride and ride in the city? I have completed the msf course and was looking alt 250's but couldn't find any near me in price range but the Honda 400 was
