You can apply for a motorcycle endorsement at age 16½ if you hold a valid Indiana driver's license. You may also apply for a motorcycle learner's permit while working toward your endorsement.

The motorcycle knowledge test is taken at your local BMV. The test contains 25 questions on motorcycle safety and driving skills. You must answer 22 of the questions correctly to pass. The motorcycle skills exam is taken at an approved exam site and assesses your ability to operate your motorcycle safely. If you fail a test, you must wait one day to retake it.
