If you do it the easy way which is the best way go do the MSF course and that counts as your driving part, then just go do the written and you have it.
How can the state of Oregon require a non resident that is passing through (not even staying in the state) to have insurance. Granted 99% of all drivers have insurance, but how they enforce that type of law on someone. You get stopped for a tail light out, the officer runs your license and tags and BAM you get slapped with a fine for a law you had no knowledge about. You get punished for following the laws of your state by another state. A good lawyer could most likely get that thrown out... I would suspect. But, I don't think you would have the same result if you were applying Florida's gun lawThey can impound your bike and give you a big fat ticket, kind of on that note the State of Oregon now requires motorcycles to have insurance even if you do not live there and are just passing through. If you do not they give you a big fat ticket.
very true but gives younger riders the chance to own a bike with out full coverage premiums crazy but it doesI got my loan through HSBC.And No they dont require insurance on they bikes.However if you total the bike or its stolen you will still be making the payments and no bike
Honestly if it wasnt for a bank like that i wont have ANY bike today.Think about it.How can the average 22 yr old spend 200 + a month on the bike payment and 500 for the insurance.Thats like 700 bucks total between your insurance and payment EVERY month.Im willing to pay as much as 200 for insurance and i have looked everywhere but for a new rider who is 22 and has a busa they want to charge me at least 450+ a monthvery true but gives younger riders the chance to own a bike with out full coverage premiums crazy but it doesI got my loan through HSBC.And No they dont require insurance on they bikes.However if you total the bike or its stolen you will still be making the payments and no bike![]()

Oh well
You are mistaken, Florida does not require insurance on a motorcycle. It is not required for registration as it is with cars, it is highly recommended though. Here is the quote from the Department of Highway Safety & Motor Vehicles website.State of Florida mandates you carry Insurance. Period.
