What to Expect in the Montana Motorcycle Permit Test

Before we begin the practice tests, let’s review the actual Montana Motorcycle Permit Test so you know what to expect.

When you take the test, you’ll need to demonstrate knowledge of three key areas:

  1. Motorcycle Driving Basics – Including safe handling techniques, proper use of equipment, and riding strategies.
  2. Montana Road Rules – Covering everything from speed limits and right-of-way laws to navigating intersections.
  3. Traffic Signs – Ensuring you recognize and correctly interpret vital traffic signals and signs.

The multiple-choice questions are based on the Montana Motorcycle Operator Manual, your go-to preparation resource. To pass, you’ll need to achieve a score of at least 80%.

Sounds manageable, right? Yet many people find themselves unprepared for tricky or unexpected questions. That’s where a practice test is invaluable.
