A. HOW TO OBTAIN A MOTORCYCLE LEARNER PERMIT:
A Vermont licensed resident who does not possess a motorcycle
endorsement may obtain a Motorcycle Learner Permit to learn how
to operate a motorcycle.
To obtain a Motorcycle Learner Permit you must do the following:
1. Make an appointment for an examination at a motor vehicle
office near you. At the examination, 20 of the 25 questions must
be answered correctly. If the knowledge test is failed, there is a
waiting period of at least one day before the exam may be taken
again.
2. If you are 16 or 17 years old you MUST have a parent or legal
guardian sign the Motorcycle Learner Permit application as well
as have a valid Junior Operator License.
3. The fee for each knowledge examination is $7.00. There is no
fee for a Motorcycle Learner Permit.
4. After the permit is issued you may call 1-802-828-2085 to
schedule an appointment for your skills test. The permit is valid
for 120 days from the date of issue. If the appointment is not
made or you do not feel confident to take the skills test at the end
of the 120 days, you may renew your permit. There is no fee for
the renewal. You may renew by mail. Renewal forms are
available at all Department of Motor Vehicle offices and on the
Vermont DMV website.

another Motorcycle Learner Permit for a period of 12 months
from the expiration date of the last permit.
