Anyone know what kind of tests i need to take/requirements in terms of age and stuff? I’m just 17 now, and I got my G1, and have yet to take my G2, but I’m wondering whether I need to take the G2 if I just want to drive a motorcycle.

If anyone can post a web link to an official site that would be very helpful.

Here in PA they offer free motorcycle safety course and provide motorcycles for the course, They are 250′s and most of them are Honda Shadows. These are good training cycles and are not very expensive. They start out teaching you the trip precheck through to avoiding hazzards on the road. We had 5 people in our class who have never driven a motorcycle, one of which never even been on a motorcycle before. Everybody passed the four day class and received their license. Try a smaller bike and work your way up until you become more experienced. However, if this will be your first bike buy used and pay cash, get the experience of riding before moving up to bigger and more expensive bikes. I have had friends who bought big bikes like Goldwings and rode only a few times then selling them at a loss because they weren’t ready for a big bike. Nothing wrong with starting small and working up to bigger later on. In fact the smaller bike will normally sell quicker when you are ready to move up, then use the money for your next bike.
