I will be taking my motorcycle permit test tomorrow, just wondering what is expected and if i do fail the permit.
There is only one motorcycle permit, but there are two motorcycle licenses. There is a Class M1 motorcycle permit, a Class M2 license, and a Class M1 license. The written exam for the M1 permit and M2 license are the same. The riding test is only for the M1 license. There were four questions that asked, In case of . . . do you? a. apply front brake only, b. apply rear brake only, c. apply both breaks at same time, or d. pull in the clutch and Flinstone it, or something stupid like that. You may only get three answers wrong to pass, so if you do not answer both breaks for all of these then you will automatically fail. I just reread your question and now it kind of sound like you're asking about how many different permit tests there are. IDK about car tests for sure but heard it was something like 6-9, basically a new one for every day of the week so that each time you fail then you're guaranteed a new one. IIRC, with the motorcycle tests there is only 2 or 3 different ones, so if your friends take it before you then you got a really good chance it will be the same. If you see the repeated braking question then you know you got my same test. You can study from the handbook too. */End of Line.
There is only one motorcycle permit/license. It authorizes you to ride any kind of 2-wheeled vehicle over 50cc. The written test for a M/C license, I have taken it, and it is more about safety and defensive riding, unlike the car test which is more about rules of the road. I actually flunked it last time because I wasn't expecting that kind of questions (then the lady looked at my record on the computer and said You don't have to take the test! You're a good driver!). So I hope you have looked at the booklet. The riding test I have not taken (I've had my license for a long time). It's supposed to be pretty hard. You have to ride around a circle between two lines without touching the lines or putting your feet down. It's easier on a smaller bike. But if you take the MSF beginner's course you don't have to take the riding test, and that's another good reason to take the course. Good luck! I hope you get it!
