Keep in mind every state is different. In Georgia, riding a bike without the correct endorsement is the same as driving a car without a regular license. You have to be licensed/endorsed for the specific vehicle you're driving/riding The bike will be impounded unless the Officer allows you to have somebody else ride it, you can get a trip to jail and yes, if you're involved in an accident most insurance companies wont cover your losses. Just not worth the hassle for how little effort it takes to get the license.

 

Getting the NC endorsement is a PIA. I had to take the written twice before passing. The online pre test is bullcrap and nothing like the 'trick' questions in the actual test intended to at least make you scratch your head. To boot I took the driving part on my RK and not some flippin 125. It was just in the parking lot but all sorts of maneuvers around cones, slow rolling, yada yada. I also, not proudly, rode without an endorsement a long time before getting one. Just glad it is behind me.

 

Man! I thought that was a real bug on my new screen for a sec. LOL

Ya got me!

 

Got mine in August of 1972!

 

Got mine when I was 16 .. never not had one

 

Yes I do! I bought the 08 F150 to match. I think it's called Senility!

 

Since I was 18, 36 now. Just for peace of mine and the Mrytle Beach cops that have always seem to have a issue with bikers.

 

I'm not old enough to be senile........

 

Got mine in 1978

 

I had a license from age 14 to 35. At 35 started my own company and was required to carry 2 million life insurance for a bank loan.

My insurance agent helped secure good affordable insurance. He advised me to not keep my MC kicense, don't say I own a boat or ski, or skiydive as a company would charge the pi$$ out of me.

so 22 years later I have to lie cheat and steal to afford insurance and keep my insurance.

I am such an a$$ the money gods dictate and made me do it.
