how long does it take?

How long does it take to get a motorcycle license?? where to go to buy a good starters bike. Any suggested tips on what should be done before purchsing a bike?  

Take an MSF course...2 days...got to the DMV and take the Motrocycle test...30 minutes...go to any dealer and buy a bike. If your serious you can do it all in less than a week. There are a number of good starter bikes. I would look for  a used one because you are probably going to want to move up to something with more power pretty quick. Good luck and ride safe if you go through with this.  

What about the writen part(DMV)??? is that gonna be necessary?? I am in the process of geting the gear and thats gonna take me some time cuz i lack "FUNDS" for the bike so im trying to save before i get started.  

when you take the MSF course it will make the DMV a piece of cake, The MSF course could take you from not knowing the difference between 4 wheels and 2, to taking on the street with the skill of someone with around 2 years of self taught experience  

I took the MSF course. (one friday night, saturday and part of  sunday)Monday I went and took the DMV written test (30 min). I have not bought a bike yet but I do rent bikes often. It is an easy and fun process. You will know more about saftey after the course than a self taught rider with years of experience.  

sweet This infor really helped alot!!!!  

i recommend you to get ready to pass your DMV written test before you'll go to DMV office.
Here's pretty good site to study:

for all states  

My MSF class (New York) required that I get my learner's permit first. I was given a written exam during my class. Once I passed both the written and skills portions of the MSF class, I was mailed a voucher for my license about a week later which I took to the DMV and exchanged it for my temporary license. I did not have to take the traditional DMV driver's test. It couldn't have been easier to get a license.

Buy a used bike in case you drop it unless you are really confident. The typical accident is when the bike just falls over while parked. Fairings are $$$ to replace. For a good beginner sportbike, get one with a more upright riding position like a Suzuki GS500F (like mine) or a Ninja 500R. Both are great starter bikes you won't outgrow for a couple of years, if at all. Stay below 600cc because they might be too powerful for a newbie and there is a large increase in insurance costs once you hit 600 cc.

Good luck, have fun. You're in for a wild ride!!!  

I started with a Ninja 250R, and never regretted it.  You can find a newer used one for relatively cheap.  When you’re confident you can handle a bigger bike you’ll be able to sell it for about the same price you got it for.  

i also think it depends on what state your in.
I am in the Navy stationed in Maine and i just took my BRC and passed and i took my card to the BMV and paid 40 bucks and got my license.  I looked around on "Craigslist and other local classified ad sites and now i will be the owner of a 1997 honda CBR 600 f3
13000 miles yoshimura slip (carbon fiber), repsol body paint, and a bike jacket for 2300.  It pays to be patient and look really close for deals and dont be afraid to do research and ask experienced bikers for help.  GOOD LUCK
