Wyoming motorcycle license at a glance
A written knowledge test (WYDOT does not publish the number of questions or passing score) and a vision screening (20/40). For a one-year permit or the license you must also pass an on-cycle skills test in a controlled off-street area, on your own street-legal motorcycle; skills tests are not given in rain or snow or on a wet or icy course.
Wyoming motorcycle rules
| Rule | In Wyoming |
|---|---|
| Minimum age | 15 for a motorcycle instruction permit; an intermediate motorcycle permit is available at 16 after 50 certified practice hours, and full privileges follow the same age rules as other licenses (17, or 16 and a half with driver education). |
| Helmet and eye protection | Riders and passengers under 18 must wear an approved helmet securely fastened. Wyoming law does not require helmets for riders 18 and older, but WYDOT urges every rider to wear an approved helmet plus face or eye protection. dot.state.wy.us |
| Rider training course | WYDOT's Wyoming Motorcycle Safety Program offers the Motorcycle Safety Foundation Basic RiderCourse (5-hour online eCourse plus 11 hours of riding) for anyone 15 or older; it costs $50 for Wyoming residents plus a service fee. The course is optional, but completing it waives all Class M testing if you show your completion card to Driver Services within two years. dot.state.wy.us |
| Skills test waiver | Yes (all tests) |

- Study the Wyoming Motorcycle License Manual.

- At a Driver Services exam station, pass the vision screening and written test and pay the motorcycle license fee to get a 90-day instruction permit.
- Practice without passengers, following the hour limits if you are under 17.
- Take the WYDOT Basic RiderCourse to waive all Class M testing, or pass the on-cycle skills test on your own street-legal motorcycle while wearing a helmet, face shield, gloves, long sleeves, full-length pants and closed-toe shoes.
- Have Class M added to your license (or get a motorcycle-only license) once you meet the age rules.
