How to Get a Motorcycle License

Published by AccurateWP

You likely recognize Accurate Auto Insurance as one of the premier home and auto insurance companies in Illinois. But did you know that we are also well-versed in motorcycle insurance? Obtaining motorcycle insurance is an important step if you are interested in riding a motorcycle. Before you look into getting motorcycle insurance, you should first get your motorcycle license. This process isn’t extremely difficult, but necessary to ensure you are properly educated about the rules of the road.

Take the Course

It’s likely that your state Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV) has a course called the Motorcycle Safety Foundation’s Basic Rider Course. Know that you will have to pay for this course and it costs anywhere from $25-$300. The course lasts two or three days and is a mixture between classroom and hands-on learning. If you graduate, you’ll earn a road test waiver that you can take to your local DMV to get your license.

Note that courses are usually booked weeks in advance. While you wait for your course to happen, it’s a good idea to make sure you’re well-versed in riding a bike, as it’s a major prerequisite of the course. Doing this will also give you confidence navigating roads on two wheels instead of four.

Additional Courses

At first, it may be intimidating to navigate the road on a motorcycle. Consider taking additional courses such as the Basic Bike-Bonding Rider course and the Street Rider Course 1. These are worth the money and can give you more experience. Like all things in life, practice makes perfect.

If you’re looking for one of the best home and auto insurance companies in Illinois, Accurate Auto Insurance is sure to be on the list! We also offer motorcycle insurance as well. We’ll see you on the road!

After calling a few places and not getting the service that I expected, a woman named Sofia Tapia from Accurate Auto was able to not only give me the answers I was looking for, but she did it with a positive attitude and and no hassle. I will definitely be sending friends her way. Thankful for the help I received.”
