Bitch session about requirement for motorcycle endorsement for 3 wheel motorcycle.
As never having a motorcycle, in 83 years, I knew I would have to get the endorsement here in Idaho. Ninety eight percent of the motorcycle written test was not applicable to the Spyder and probably all other 3 wheel motorcycle and the other 2% was applicable to any 4 wheel vehicle. The skills test is only given by private citizens in most communities or as DMV said take the Starz course which is not given around here for 3 wheelers. The skills test consisted of three events. The first is a cone weave and normal stop, the second is an obstacle swerve, and the last a "quick stop". Now the written test cost $5 and gives you a learners permit for 6 months which cost $15, then the skills test cost $25 and then a new license with the endorsement for $15.
Just out of curiosity how many other States require an endorsement?
