Getting a motorcycle and a motorcycle license?
I'm 15 years old. I love motorcycles. I know everything about bikes and shifting and stuff. I do have experience but i have only riden a Honda CG125. Nothing with more power.
I'm going to turn 16 next summer and i want to purchase a Kawasaki ninja 300. I want to know how i'm going to buy it and how i'm gonna get the license. I live in New York City by the way. Thanks!
Added (1). i can get a motorcycle learners permit at age 16 in NY so yeah
First of all you get a bike and learn the bike then you become a license because it's legal.
I don't think it's legal to get a motorcycle license until you are 21.
Look on the NY DMV website.
You need to get the license first because you can't even get insurance without it ( even then you can't buy the bike at 16, it has to be put in your parents name since you can't sign a purchase contract or get registration as a minor ) , take an msf ridercourse and they'll provide the bike and the training right thru getting the license and if you take this course the insurance rate will be lower than it would if you didn't, that lower insurance rate more than covers the cost of the course over a few years so it is worth taking the course
- Would I need a motorcycle license to drive a Honda Metropolitan scooter in Florida? I've been looking into getting one. I also looked up the rules for scooters/mopeds in Florida, but it was a little confusing and I think the scooter I want surpassed some of the maximum requirements for being classified as a scooter/moped.
- What's a clever/funny license plate for a motorcycle? Next month I'm getting a Honda cbr 500r (my first motorcycle) and I want custom plates. Any cool ideas?
- Shoud I buy the motorcycle before or after I get my license and gear? I found an interesting offer on a Honda CB500 from 1993 but I don't have my license nor gear. I'm afraid that if I don't buy it now I might loose it. What do you think? Of course I don't plan on riding with no gear. I'm going to store the motorcycle until it's 100% safe
- I've just turned 18 today and i'm gonna be getting a motorcycle what motorcycle would suit me? I'm only 90-95 pounds and I'm short what would be a good light weight cruiser around 250-300 pounds like my Honda Twinstar 185? I can't balance anything too big as i'm small, I need something that's lightweight, preferably Harley, but any work for me a bikes a bike, Thank you in advance! Note: My Honda Twinstar does not run my father had that bike since I was 7 or 8 and gave it to me when I was 9 but it sat out so long it doesn't work.
