Thanks for this brother. Looks like you’re in Ontario & the way you approached this video, I’ve got considerably less nerves about getting my license. Thank you very much 😊
@@tractioncontrol.ca1 I’ve never driven a motorcycle before. I’m wanting to finance the 2022 Harley Davidson Iron 883, but I’m not sure if going brand new would be for the best. My two questions for an experienced rider for yourself would be the following: • Should I Finance New or Buy Used? • Should I Put Crash Bars on my Motorcycle?
@@ChristiansLongboardAdventures I recommend to do the safety course first before buying your first bike. Most important thing is to find what '"Type" of bike you like. Safety course is a good opportunity to try different styles of bikes and then decide what type of bike you enjoy the most. I have seen many students buying a cruiser just to realize they like sports bike more and vice a versa. Used/finance/new/used - it boils down to personal choice/financial situation etc. I highly recommend new riders to buy used small cc (under 500cc) bike and improve riding skills. You can apply learned skills from small bike onto bigger bike. If you start with a bigger bike, you are struggling with weight, too much power which in return prolongs your learning process. Hope this helps to make a decision thats right for you.
@@ChristiansLongboardAdventures don't do that to yourself. You'll regret buying a bike that feels like a truck as your first. Harley died in early 2000's anyways, maybe look at the older 80's Harley's or look into Honda or Yamaha's lineups from the 80's onward like the marauder, interceptor, maxim, virago etc
I got my motorcycle licence in Ontario, Canada back in 1990. I wrote my beginners at the start of summer, then rode with a group of buddies for a month or so during the summer. After those 4 or 5 weeks I went for my full M licence @ the MTO & passed! --->within 20 minutes of getting my FULL M LICENCE my buddies & I were off on a road trip to the USA! I wore my helmet on the highway but when we got to the city Duluth in Minnesota we all took our helmets off as there is no helmet law there!
Thank you for the very informative video. One question I have is can you acquire you M license without owning a motorcycle? Similar to M2 can the school provide one you will take the test in? or can you rent or borrow one like we did for the G test?
This video was the best one I’ve found! You laid it out so clear and concise. I learnt a lot just from this short video but it opened my eyes to how smooth this process can be.
I'm a student and I love motorcycles, now I want a vespa 50cc, what kind of restrictions do I have with this type of motorcycle, can I use it in a highway? Thanks for your videos, they are really informative .
Thank you! 50cc Vespa is not allowed on highway because most likely it would not reach highway appropriate speed. You need a motor vehicle that is capable of minimum 100kms/hour or more.
Yep. Same deal here. I'm 49. Had a motorcycle in the past. Got one again. It's a total cash grab for the province and Insurance. Since now we have to have 100% all year coverage. Months we can't ride. Yea, thieves pretty much.
I have given M1 test recently and booked M2 test within 15 days of getting M1....I booked M2 with learning curves the 3 days course .....My question is am i eligible to give M2?? As my M1 is not 60 days old
Hello. This may be a stupid question but.....ive never been on a motorcycle before, but i am interested in a Honda Navi because you dont have to deal with a clutch etc..... How do you get your licence ( theyre 109ccs), if you dont want to learn a reg cycle??? Im guessing you cant?? Nice vid!!
Hi no its a valid question. Navi's fall under regular motorcycle license class. I would recommend to do safety course (they teach you how to ride and do the testing at the end, you will be using school bikes) once you have your M2 you can ride your Navy everywhere. Hope this helps!
I've been deliberating over getting my license for years. I grew up in a really rural area so the thought of driving on highways and in cities freaks me out - I'm not used to the traffic. But damn does it ever look like fun to ride the country roads. I'd love to take a trip across Canada on an adventure bike. This video is helpful. Now I just need to stop being so worried about riding a bike. :P
If you were looking for a sign, this is it. This is the year to pull the trigger. Its normal to be freaked out by city traffic and highspeeds but it all can be conquered by training and practice. I have done multiple Canada cross country trips and those are one of my best experiences. I am big fan of adventure bikes for their capacity to go on and off roads. Not sure where you are located but if you are near Toronto hit me up, I will help you to enhance your skills! You can find my contact details at www.tractioncontrol.ca. If you are not in Toronto, look for motorcycle training schools in your area. Riding is fun, when done right!
Very crisp and informative video. Thank you. By having an overseas experience of over 10 years of riding motorcycles, do we get skip the 18 months wait period from M2 to M by showing the drivers license extract ? Basically, The way they have it for car license, where in we can directly appear for G test after G1.
Thank you 🙏🏽 Yes, you can skip the waiting period with overseas licenses. However, it depends on the country of license. I would recommend to inquire with MTO before booking the M test. All the best!!
I am 22 born in Mississauga, just now going for my MTO test and i’m so excited!! thank you so much for making this video man. I think I will definitely do my M2-M course with MTO as well just to ensure I am prepared and to correct any bad habits I may pick up as an M2 rider.
Possibly! to my best knowledge, the drive test decides that on case to case basis. Your best bet is to visit any drive test centre and ask them if it can be done. They will also let you know the document required to skip the M2. If you need any help preparing for the M test, let me know!
So, im someone whos never been on a bike. The ideal route to go based off of my understand would be : M1 test-> safety school to M2 -> buy a bike -> ride said bike -> get the M license when possible?
You nailed it! I would also add Advance Riding course after getting M2. At the safety school you will learn foundations of riding but you need more than that to be safe on streets. If you are interested in investing in skill/safety, you can find me at www.tractioncontrol.ca All the best!
@@FerdawsAhmadi-hd8cu You can! Once you get your M1, do the safety course right away and pass the test. You still have to wait for 60days to pick up your M2. The courses go up to end of October.
90 days! The courses goes up to end of Oct and restarts next year in April. Also, you can do your M2 course anytime after receiving M1 upto 90days. Hope this answers your question.
Thank you for this informative video! May I ask, could I start riding (using) the motorcycle after M1. Because in G license you can start driving after the written test right (with someone who has the full license). Is it possible in M1 as well? Thank you!
Yes you can but its going to be difficult to find the insurance on M1. I recommend to get M2 before getting insured, the price difference is quite high typically.
if i do 2 days safety course, still i have to go to drive test centre for giving test ??? i heard after doing 2 days safety course we dont have to give test . plzz help me out
You don't have to go drive test for the test - Safety course will do the licensing test (on behalf of drivetest) at the end of two days. Hope that helps!
Hello, Awesome video. I am gonna become a beginner biker and excited about getting my motorcycle license sometime. I live in New Brunswick and was wondering about that motorcycle handbook you have in your description. Is that handbook relevant to my province New Brunswick as it is to Ontario or are they different. Also the third stage M is that the full license.
Its my pleasure! I am excited for you to join the motorcycle community. Unfortunately, I do not have any experience with NB licencing process and Yes M is a full license in Ontario.
There is no restriction on Engine capacity. You can start riding from M1 level as long as you can find an insurance (which is difficult) most riders start riding once they get M2 level licensing.
Not impossible but difficult to find one. There is a premium price to pay for sure. I recommend to wait until you get M2 or find a company thats willing to change the rate from M1 to M2 in the middle of the contract.
Yes you can as long as you have insurance. However, its difficult to find an insurance company that insures M1 riders. Even if you do find one, premiums are most likely going to be significantly higher than M2/M. Based on my experience, I do not recommend.
What about international people who come to Canada with a prior license in their own country with few years of experience does the process takes less time there or is it the same as new learner
You may be able to skip M2 and directly appear for M test. It is based on person to person basis and I would suggest to visit drive test centre to see if its possible in your case. I do recommend to go through M2 as doing a M2 course reduces your insurance plus if you havent ridden in Canada. It is difficult to pass the M test as the test is more than being able to ride. If you still decide to skip the M2 and go for M, I can prepare you for the test. You can find me at www.tractioncontrol.ca. All the best :)))
Thank you for the information, I have questions for you. I hold a Full G license in Ontario and I have Experience certificate from my Home country of 4+ years of driving both Car and Motorcycle. Do i get to skip M2 or not really? What benefit do i get of having a full G license?
My pleasure! There is a possibility you may be able to skip M2 and go straight for M. Its decided on person to person basis and you will need to visit drive test to see if skipping M2 applies to you. Personally I do not recommend skipping M2 as you do get insurance discount for doing the M2 course. Plus if you havent ridden in Canada, it will be difficult to pass the M test as its more than being able to ride a bike. If you still decide to skip the M2, reach out to me and I can train you for the test. You can find me at tractioncontrol.ca. All the best!
This might be a dumb question and I may have just misunderstood but how does the M test work? If they making you ride on the road? How does the instructor follow or evaluate you on your test? They can ride with you on the same vehicle like you would doing a G test? or is it all done within a radius and tester can visibly see you?
Thats actually a valid question - Instructor/examiner will follow you behind in a car. There is a driver for examiner and examiner will sit on passenger seat giving you directions via communication device. Hope this clears the confusion.
Hey, im 17 and used to ride motorcycles almost daily in my home country. So are you saying that passing the MTO written test will get you the M1 license? And you will be able yo drive a motorcycle on the road?
Thank you very much for the prompt / informative video !! for example if I want to do my M2 course April 15-17, I need to write my M1 test after Jan15 (90 days before the course) & the sooner the better if I want to get my M2 license get issued close to the course completion day. right?
Earliest you could upgrade your license from M1 to M2 is 60 days. If you are finishing the safety course on April 17th, I will recommend to get your M1 anytime between January 17th - February 17th. It’s best to get in February that way you have some grace period incase course got canceled. All the best!
Yes you can! We can arrange bike rental at lowest price in GTA. Reach out to me via email: Ride@tractioncontrol.ca Or DM me on social media: instagram.com/tractioncontrol.ca/
Its subjective! depends on the rider skill. M2 test is a breeze for riders with previous street riding experience and for new rider, need some practice.
Hello, I just want to ask when is the best time to buy motorcycle gears at a discounted price in all motorcycle stores here in the GTA? Do they offer discounts during black Friday's? Thank you and more power to you.
Insurance care of "insured licensing experience" so if you are M license holder with no insurance history, its considered as a new rider with no previous experience. Hope this helps!
RIght! riding a motorcycle has innate risk attach to it but with proper TRAINING and PRACTICE - you can reduce the risk. I am assuming you are wondering how much it cost to get a license - it depends on which school but approximately $500
when is this process do you get the actual bike, gear and insurance? im so confused because you need the license to get the insurance, to get the bike but you need the bike to get the license?
I see how it can be confusing, here is the step by step approach: Step1: Get license through safety school (bikes will be provided by the school for the test but you will need to arrange riding gear) Step 2: Find a bike you like then get insured Step 3: Visit Service Ontario to transfer ownership under your name, you will need below documents Owner's responsibility - Provide Bill of Sale, UVIP document and Registration. Buyer's responsibility - Insurance, Safety certificate and transfer ownership. On a side note, you dont need a license to get a bike as long as its insured and plated. Bike can be either towed or ridden by any licensed rider (a friend) I will be making a video on how to buy used bike in Ontario, stay tuned! Hope this helps!
When you say you have to hold your license for a certain period of time, what does that involve to do so? Do you recommend getting the bike first? And what’s a good beginner bike that can also be on the highway?
You don’t have to do anything to hold the license. You can hold your license level even if you don’t ride. However you need to upgrade until M level before it expires. Getting a bike before license doesn’t make any difference unless you can start insuring. Earlier you built history, earlier your premiums will go down. But you would need a license to start insuring. Any bike under 500cc is your best bet for best beginner bike for highway and street riding. Also these bikes are cost effective on insurance premiums. Hope this helps!
You will have to visit Drive test to find out the information. Every international countries have different rules when it comes to transferring licenses. All the best!
Glad to hear you enjoyed the video. Thanks for bringing it to attention - The goal of this video is to help new riders and I always try my best to lead with example.
Its a difficult question to answer as price changes from person to person. Here is the video with all the details that you need to know about insurance. Hope this helps! th-cam.com/video/wKtSmbbJjnU/w-d-xo.html
Yes! you can start riding with M1 BUT its hard to find insurance company that is willing insure M1 riders. If you find one, its usually charging much higher premiums. Personally, I would recommend to wait until you have M2. If you really cant wait, then find a company that is willing to change premium rates from M1 to M2 in the middle of the contract. All the best!
To my best knowledge, you do need "LSM license (limited speed motorcycle) here is the link to ministry website for more information: www.ontario.ca/page/get-motorcycle-licence#section-5
To get your M license and do the M test do we need to get our own motorcycle and show proof of ownership and insurance or can we rent a motorcycle to do the M test?

so once i have an M1 license, can i buy a motorcycle and drive it right away (with the relevant conditions)
Yes! as long as you have insurance under your name and motorcycle is registered - you are all set!
its rediculous ......and getting worse everday
It is unfortunate
Dies engine capacity influence the type of license? And at what stage can we ride the bike and what are the restrictions
There is no restriction on Engine capacity. You can start riding from M1 level as long as you can find an insurance (which is difficult) most riders start riding once they get M2 level licensing.
What if you have zero experience riding but want to get your license?
The licensing schools will teach you. Most students have no experience.
How hard is it to get insurance with a m1 i heard some people having a hard time getting insurance.
Not impossible but difficult to find one. There is a premium price to pay for sure. I recommend to wait until you get M2 or find a company thats willing to change the rate from M1 to M2 in the middle of the contract.
Can anyone please suggest where can I get training on affordable price, I am a beginner. Had my license back in India

Yes you can as long as you have insurance. However, its difficult to find an insurance company that insures M1 riders.

Is the M1 test at any service Ontario or only the drive test locations?

I have G license, so I don't need to take M1 right?
Correct! you still need to get M1
No it's not its a pain in the ass .wait wait and wait sum more
LOL :D
Nice 🥳
Thank you!
Thank you very much for the prompt / informative video !! for example if I want to do my M2 course April 15-17, I need to write my M1 test after Jan15 (90 days before the course) & the sooner the better if I want to get my M2 license get issued close to the course completion day. right?
Earliest you could upgrade your license from M1 to M2 is 60 days. If you are finishing the safety course on April 17th, I will recommend to get your M1 anytime between January 17th - February 17th. It’s best to get in February that way you have some grace period incase course got canceled. All the best!
@@tractioncontrol.ca1 Thanks for the good advise. I'll do the M1 test in February then
@@alkaviani1945 how did it go?
I must say your vid is the most informative and sample of all ones I saw thx a brother
I appreciate that!
Can I rent a motorcycle for my M test?
Yes you can! We can arrange bike rental at lowest price in GTA. Reach out to me via email: Ride@tractioncontrol.ca Or DM me on social media: instagram.com/tractioncontrol.ca/
Awesome! Thanks buddy!
Thanks Tyler! It was nice to meet you
Bro are all the exams easy or tough to pass
Its subjective! depends on the rider skill. M2 test is a breeze for riders with previous street riding experience and for new rider, need some practice.
Thanks for the tips bro. Keep it up
Its my pleasure brother, safe riding!
I did my M1 June i had 64 questions
Thats a critical information. The test have changed since the video was made. I will add correction in video description.
Thanks, that's the info I needed.
Glad it helped :)
How much it cost ?
Like for everything including the safety course and all of the money we should have
Idk if you still answer these but i have my g1 and did the road sign test for that, do i have to do it again for the m1 test?
Yes you do still need to write M1 test as part of it is specific to motorcycle skills
@@tractioncontrol.ca1 I meant the sign test like identifying road signs and stuff like that
Bro is it really that easy?
Hahaha really it is! 💪
Thanks buddy
My pleasure! 🙏
so i can basically go buy a harley after i get my M1 license and then enrol in safety school and also give the test for M2?
yes yes and yes. But also remember the insurance on M1 is hard to find and when you find it, its typically ridiculous amount.
@@tractioncontrol.ca1 so your advice? pass M2 using motorcycle the course provides and then invest in your own ride?
I have already given my g2 so do i again need to give m1?
Hello, I just want to ask when is the best time to buy motorcycle gears at a discounted price in all motorcycle stores here in the GTA? Do they offer discounts during black Friday's? Thank you and more power to you.

Its my pleasure! 💯
NaaaaYce

Does insurance increase if you have your M licence but don't own a motorcycle yet?
Insurance care of "insured licensing experience" so if you are M license holder with no insurance history, its considered as a new rider with no previous experience. Hope this helps!
Great video man! Thank you! When would you recommend starting the process of getting your motorcycle license would spring be the best time to start?
Best time is NOW! Longer you wait, longer it takes to build experience for insurance. Get it done :)
Appreciated but the only problem how safe driving motorcycle on street . It's just weekend hobbies forgot to mention how much total cost
RIght! riding a motorcycle has innate risk attach to it but with proper TRAINING and PRACTICE - you can reduce the risk.
I am assuming you are wondering how much it cost to get a license - it depends on which school but approximately $500
i got this 100cc(more like 75-80 probs) engine that mounts on a bike, can i not get an m license to ride it? it doesnt go highway speeds.
That would not work. You need street legal motorcycle with safety features. Look for motorcycle rentals to do the test.
when is this process do you get the actual bike, gear and insurance? im so confused because you need the license to get the insurance, to get the bike but you need the bike to get the license?
I see how it can be confusing, here is the step by step approach:
Step1: Get license through safety school (bikes will be provided by the school for the test but you will need to arrange riding gear)
Step 2: Find a bike you like then get insured
Step 3: Visit Service Ontario to transfer ownership under your name, you will need below documents
Owner's responsibility - Provide Bill of Sale, UVIP document and Registration.
Buyer's responsibility - Insurance, Safety certificate and transfer ownership.
On a side note, you dont need a license to get a bike as long as its insured and plated. Bike can be either towed or ridden by any licensed rider (a friend)
I will be making a video on how to buy used bike in Ontario, stay tuned!
Hope this helps!
When you say you have to hold your license for a certain period of time, what does that involve to do so? Do you recommend getting the bike first? And what’s a good beginner bike that can also be on the highway?
You don’t have to do anything to hold the license. You can hold your license level even if you don’t ride. However you need to upgrade until M level before it expires.
Getting a bike before license doesn’t make any difference unless you can start insuring. Earlier you built history, earlier your premiums will go down. But you would need a license to start insuring.
Any bike under 500cc is your best bet for best beginner bike for highway and street riding. Also these bikes are cost effective on insurance premiums.
Hope this helps!
How can I convert the motorcycle license I got from Turkey 4 years ago to an M class license? thanks
You will have to visit Drive test to find out the information. Every international countries have different rules when it comes to transferring licenses. All the best!
Good summary - thx. But was that an illegal lane change @3 min mark LOL
Glad to hear you enjoyed the video. Thanks for bringing it to attention - The goal of this video is to help new riders and I always try my best to lead with example.
I’m new in Canada, could you share how much does it cost for the first bike insurance? Thanks
Its a difficult question to answer as price changes from person to person. Here is the video with all the details that you need to know about insurance. Hope this helps!

Wjen you get the m1 license are you allowed to ride before getting m2
Yes! you can start riding with M1 BUT its hard to find insurance company that is willing insure M1 riders. If you find one, its usually charging much higher premiums. Personally, I would recommend to wait until you have M2. If you really cant wait, then find a company that is willing to change premium rates from M1 to M2 in the middle of the contract. All the best!
Can u make a video on insurance how much it’s gonna be for m1 m2 holder
th-cam.com/video/wKtSmbbJjnU/w-d-xo.htmlsi=HsLPIz5pLXwTHHll
Where can I get the M2 course in Canada? If we hold a G license, is the process still the same?
Process is the same for G license holders. I have added a link of government approved schools in video description. All the best!
In Ontario what is the youngest age u can take the M1 written test?
16
do i need to have M license to drive a 49cc motorcycle ?
To my best knowledge, you do need "LSM license (limited speed motorcycle) here is the link to ministry website for more information: www.ontario.ca/page/get-motorcycle-licence#section-5
To get your M license and do the M test do we need to get our own motorcycle and show proof of ownership and insurance or can we rent a motorcycle to do the M test?
You could just say it’s borrowed if anyone asks
What was your total expense to get M license?
I recommend to visit goverment appoved school websites to see current prices. link : www.ontario.ca/page/government-approved-motorcycle-safety-courses
Are you allowed to own a full-speed bike during the whole process or do you have to get a standard bike first?
You can own any motorcyle, there are no restriction on engine size in Canada. Hope this helps!
