Re: License/Permit Info for Virginia
It's cake. My stuff had expired and for various reasons I had to take the written test (unexpectedly) and the riding test immediately following.. They were both cake. I was out of there in a jiffy!
The course at the DMV is pre-marked, but it's hard to tell what you have to do by looking at the ground without the cones. They have pamplets at the DMV that tell you what you can practice in order to be successful. A guy at the DMV that took his riding test before me handed it off to me for a little help in the right direction. Very cool of him.. Don't sweat it, just take your time and remember to go SLOWWWWWWWW and use the brake as much as you need to. You're better off to take way too long than you are to put your foot down or go over a line.

Trust me. Just go slow, and use that brake and throttle wisely. You're not under any time constraint with the u-turn whatsoever IIRC. Don't put your foot down.

Re: License/Permit Info for Virginia
i heard you can take it on a scooter or a moped is this true? the ones you register. I dont know if this is true but if so that would make the test ALOT easier. if someone knows please let me know.

Have you checked on the forum? Maybe even Craigslist? Any other motorcycle boards you post on? Just put the word out that you'd like to use someones 250cc for the motorcycle test and more than likely someone will come to the rescue!!!
