How the Alaska motorcycle test works

  • M1, M2 or M3Alaska riders of motorcycles of 50 cc or more need an M1 (any motorcycle, from 16) or M3 (three-wheelers) class on their license; M2 is a special permit class for 14- and 15-year-olds on cycles under 50 cc. Under 50 cc, a basic driver license is enough. (Alaska DMV: Motorcycle License)
  • A knowledge test and a road testYou pass the motorcycle general knowledge test (free at a DMV office or online for a fee) and a road test on a motorcycle, or present an MSF course completion certificate to waive the road test. (Alaska DMV: Motorcycle License)
