How to Get Your Motorcycle Licence in Manitoba (Class 6)
Manitoba's motorcycle licence runs through MPI's graduated licensing: a knowledge test, then a learner stage, an intermediate stage, and finally the full Class 6. The learner stage takes months, not days — so if you want to ride this season, start early.

The Manitoba path at a glance
Learner → Intermediate → Full Class 6 graduated licensing with MPI. The knowledge test is the gate to everything else — pass it and the riding stages open up.
Step by step
- Study the official rider handbook. MPI's official motorcycle guide is the source for every test question. Pair it with free practice tests in the Manitoba format so the question style holds no surprises.
- Pass the knowledge test at an MPI Service Centre or Autopac agent. The knowledge test typically runs around 50 multiple-choice questions with a 80% pass mark — confirm the current format with MPI. Every road sign on the test is illustrated in our Canadian road signs guide.
- Ride as a learner. Expect conditions while you build experience — see the restrictions below — and use the stage deliberately: quiet roads, good weather, real practice.
- Ride out the learner and intermediate stages — Manitoba's timeline is one of the longer ones, which is exactly why passing the knowledge test early in the year matters.
- Pass the road test and ride. Rider training is worth it everywhere (and often earns an insurance discount) — it teaches what a written test can't.
Learner restrictions
- Learner-stage supervision and riding restrictions apply
- No passengers as a learner
- Plan for a learner stage measured in months
Fees, learner conditions, and test formats change over time. This guide describes the process as of 2026 — always confirm current requirements with MPI. Expect a modest fee for the knowledge test and separate fees for road tests.
