What is covered in the Indiana motorcycle handbook?
The Indiana motorcycle handbook covers motorcycle controls and equipment, riding techniques, defensive riding strategies, intersections and turning, carrying passengers and cargo, special riding conditions (rain, night, highways), and Indiana-specific traffic laws for motorcyclists.

How many questions are on the Indiana motorcycle written test?
The Indiana (IN) motorcycle knowledge test has 50 questions, and you need 42 correct (84%) to pass. Practice free at DMVSOS to be ready for every one.
Can I take a motorcycle safety course instead of the written test in Indiana?
Many states allow you to waive the written and/or skills test by completing an approved MSF (Motorcycle Safety Foundation) Basic RiderCourse. Check with the Indiana BMV for current requirements.
