To operate a motorcycle on streets, you must have a motorcycle drivers license.
You do not need a license to operate a dirt bike as long as you keep it off of the streets. The procedure for doing so varies by state. In most states, you can obtain a motorcycle drivers license at the age of 16, the same age for obtaining a regular driver’s license. The process involves a written test as well as a motorcycle driving test.
