Maybe I mis understood your post. You do have to have a license, you don't have to have a motorcycle endorsement.

I guess im to assume you have no insurance either.....Sorry to vent...JUST DON'T GET IT!!!!!!!

Just for the record.... you will not get hauled in to jail for not having the M endorsement if you get pulled over on a bike. A friend of mine got pulled over (here in Illinois) on his bike without the class M and all he got was a $75 ticket for driving out of class. The cop ever let him call a buddy with the corrrect endorsement to come drive his bike home. I however got mine a year before I actually bought my first bike in 02.

Had one for several years, let it lapse when I moved to a new state, but finally got that fixed a couple of years ago.

Well in defense of all you reprobates ;-) my wife has an M3 endorsement (in Wa State there's 3 levels, 3 being the highest) but I wouldn't let her loose on either of my Harleys!
