No, just go to the DPS and tell them you want a motorcycle liscense!

Yes.Some states (if you're in the US) allow you to drive a bike with just your license.But most make you take a motorcycle driving test and get an 'endorsement' on your lic. for a bike.jan

In the US it depends on State, but I know at least some states let you do that.Honestly though, I wouldn't recommend it if you're young and have no real driving experience. There are a lot of things to be learned about the road, things that can only be learned by experience. It would be much more dangerous to gain this experience on a motorcycle that in would be in a car. A motorcycle is NOT a good first car unless you have a death wish or really like skin grafts.
