Those of you who've obtained a motorcycle license, what do y'all do? Just take a class, pass a written/driving/visual test, and pick up your license? The majority of people don't get insurance for a bike, right? Are the tests typically done at the DPS/DMV like a driver's license, or do y'all know if classes are offered, like weekend classes?

Well what I've gathered from various websites including dmv.org is:

1. A class is optional, up to you.
2. You pay various fees, including one for taking the test at a DMV.
3. Having insurance is the law, but if you don't get caught no one will know.
4. Motorcycle insurance is expensive, and it's not like it exactly protects you from dying going high speeds.

Where did you get that info from?
