What the Idaho Motorcycle Rider’s Handbook says about Idaho endorsement and tests

  • Applying for a Motorcycle Endorsement

    Idaho encourages every rider (and requires riders under 21) to take an entry-level motorcycle course before the endorsement; the knowledge test is based on this handbook, and skills tests are given in a controlled off-street area by third-party skills test examiners. p. 15

  • Riding Requirements

    In Idaho, anyone under 21 must pass the knowledge test and complete an approved motorcycle rider training course for the endorsement; the course is recommended for everyone 21 or older too. p. 16

  • Instruction Permit

    An Idaho motorcycle instruction permit is available to anyone with a valid Idaho driver's license who has passed the motorcycle knowledge test; it is valid for 1 year and allows practice riding in daylight only, with no freeway riding and no passengers. p. 16

  • Knowledge Test

    The Idaho motorcycle knowledge test is taken at any county driver's license office and is based on this handbook; if you fail it, you wait 3 days before retesting and pay the test fee again. p. 17

  • Quick Stop

    In the quick stop exercise, reach a steady speed between 12 and 20 mph by the first line, then stop as fast as you safely can when your front tire passes the second line; you don't lose points for skidding, and you stay stopped until told to move. p. 88

  • Professional Training

    The Idaho STAR Motorcycle Safety Program's training is associated with a 79% lower crash risk and an 89% lower risk of a fatal crash; its state-certified instructors teach in a controlled, off-street setting, covering physical skills and mental strategies, with courses for every level. p. 109
