How the Vermont motorcycle test works

  • Permit: a course or a testA licensed Vermont resident gets a Motorcycle Learner Permit by passing the permit test or finishing the 4-hour Vermont Motorcycle Awareness Program. The permit lasts 120 days, can be renewed twice, and allows daylight riding in Vermont only, with no passengers. (Vermont DMV: Motorcycle Endorsement)
  • Then an off-road skills testThe endorsement takes a 25-question knowledge exam (80%) and an off-road skills test on your own registered, insured motorcycle, usually April to October. Fail the skills test and you practice a week before trying again. (Vermont DMV: Motorcycle Endorsement)
  • Or the VREP courseVermont Rider Education Program courses can replace the DMV tests: the 15-hour Basic Rider Course waives the knowledge and skills tests, and the one-day Experienced Rider License Waiver course waives the skills test. (Vermont DMV: Motorcycle Endorsement)
  • Vermont rules on top of the MSF manualThe 2025 Vermont Motorcycle Manual adds Vermont’s pages (helmets for every rider, eye protection unless the motorcycle has a windshield, inspection, insurance, no two motorcycles side by side in one lane) to the MSF Motorcycle Operator Manual, 17th edition. (Vermont DMV: Forms (CDL and Motorcycle Manuals))

Based on the Vermont Motorcycle Manual (2025). Official licensing agency.
