RE: No License no Bike. Is this True?
I didn't have problem with "extra money" but my first road bike was a 84 Magna which I paid 1K for. As long as they "cap" the costs AND have the classes available. I wouldn't want to try to buy a bike then realize it's a year long wait for a class.

Guess I'm glad I got my license back when I was 16. There was a 15 year period from 83 to 98 where I didn't ride (or even own a bike...got spooked by a bad spill in 83), but I made sure the endorsement stayed on my drivers license just in case I ever wanted to ride again.

Bluerose, I think it's a matter of registration really
parent could plop down 10G for the kids bike, but whoever's name it's registered under needs the endorsement regardless of who's gonna be riding it...If therider (kid)is then caught riding without an endorsement then there is a problem.

How are you supposed to get a motorcycle endorsement on your license without a bike?

That won't work in Washington State -- the Riders Edge course doesn't get you the waiver, only the MSF will. However, you can get a Learner Permit with just the written, which is good for 90 days & is renewable once. At this time, you also don't need a license to register the bike with the State (yet).

I have been waiting for years for the government to do this with all vehicles. If you don't have a license, no vehicle. It would stop a lot of illegals from driving. They have an accident, no license, insurance.........then everyone else's insurance goes up because of the associated damage, injury, and death they cause, while they disappear back to their country of origin.
It happens a lot around here, and I have the "In memory" patches to prove it. DON"T NEED ANY MORE!!!

Only one thing will stop both...and that's more stringent border control.
