Study this handbook carefully, because you’ll only have three chances to pass the test.
The written test is based on the California Motorcycle Handbook, available online below, at the DMV, or on the California DMV website. Previous applicants have reported that these tests are ridiculously difficult, probably because one accident is all it takes to get seriously injured – or worse – on a motorcycle. In order to obtain your M1, you’ve got to pass the written test, then the riding test. The first thing you’ve got to do is apply for the California M1 (Motorcycle) License. It’s not that far off if you break things up into steps. If your dream is to ride down California’s coastal roadways, take heart.
