As I already wrote, before buying a motorcycle, it is advisable to get a category A license. If you have your own motorcycle, then you will be able to train well on it before passing to the traffic police.

But on the other hand, on your motorcycle without a license, you can train only among garages. Therefore, the question of what you need to do first, get a license or buy a bike, everyone decides differently. I will tell you below what is the situation with motorcycle rights in Ukraine and whether it is worth studying in a motorcycle school, or it is easier to buy a license :-).

Is it worth studying in a motorcycle school?

As I already wrote, before buying a motorcycle, it is advisable to get a category A license. If you have your own motorcycle, then you will be able to train well on it before passing to the traffic police.

But on the other hand, on your motorcycle without a license, you can train only among garages. Therefore, the question of what you need to do first, get a license or buy a bike, everyone decides differently. I will tell you below what is the situation with motorcycle rights in Ukraine and whether it is worth studying in a motorcycle school, or it is easier to buy a license :-).

Is it worth studying in a motorcycle school?

There is no definitive answer :-). It depends on your desire, experience and money. So, how things are for 2012 and how to get category A rights.

The easiest and most important legal way is to graduate from motorcycle school and pass the rights to the traffic police yourself. The disadvantage of this method: time and money. Alas, it is cheaper to "buy" a category A license than to study at school. But, if you have the time and money and have a good motorcycle school at your fingertips, then it is better to take a training course.

Now about the motorcycle schools. It is best to choose the one that you like. Almost every motorcycle school has a trial lesson where you can get acquainted with the motorcycle school and ride a motorcycle under the guidance of an instructor.

I took such a lesson in the Safe Riding motorcycle school and I liked it. Alas, the price of a full course of study is about 500 USD, which is not cheap. Let's say that you would learn to drive a car, you need to spend about 300-400 USD on a driving school.

Another good motorcycle school, I was recommended Albatross.

Well, where I do not advise you to go to study is in Onega and Signal. The price there is lower, but believe me, you may have so many difficulties when passing the internal exam that the total training will be MORE EXPENSIVE.

The objective price for training in a motorcycle school is from 400 to 500 dollars. What's below, or divorce or very low-quality training!

Therefore, if you decide to learn how to drive a motorcycle, then choose a GOOD motorcycle school! Read reviews about them on the Internet before recording!

Or maybe you should buy a category A license?

If you have little time and little money, it is cheaper to buy a category A license :-). If you need to spend 2 months on motorcycle school, 500 USD + pass the theory and practice in the traffic police, which you may not be able to do the first time, then it is easier and CHEAPER to buy a license. The price of category A rights in Ukraine, in 2012, was about 200 USD and a month of waiting. Agree, it is at least 2 times cheaper than studying in a motorcycle school, learning tickets and being nervous when passing to the traffic police.

But the price of such purchased rights can be your life!

Therefore, in any case, learn the rules of the road well, find a good instructor and from study with him the amount of time you need to feel confident behind the wheel of a motorcycle!

And only after that, go to the public road in full equipment.
