How to Pass the M2 Motorcycle Test in Ontario (M1 Exit Test) 

Today was my first day on two wheels. Now tomorrow is the test. Let’s do this! 🔥❤️‍🔥🙏

wow. I thought this was gonna be hard lol i feel much better after watching this.

Corrections: This test is the one that follows the course you take before your M2 Test. If you just take the test without the course, I believe that you use your own bike and that the test is different (riding the bike in a slalom is one of the exercises).In addition, I stated that you can get up to 12 points off during the test. In fact you can get 11 points off. On the 12th point you fail the test.

Ok, I have been teaching this exam and course for seven years in Ontario. Pass rate is massively high. Course is more intense that this evaluation. Looks like exam that is practiced at RTI and Curves schools. Times for section: 7.5sec box to end of narrow. 8.3sec box to box. 1.6sec mark 1 to mark 3 (of 4). 1.3sec on swerve, .. 1.3brake, .. 1.3trail brake. Marks on pavement. MTO ministry offers more simple test. Their examinators, unlike instructors at school, are not coaching or teaching.

So funny to see this as I just had the M1 Exit course/test 5 days ago at this same exact location. The explanation is spot on!

Appreciate you taking the time to make this and give us a heads up on what to expect.

Real detailed and precise! Taking mine this weekend, super excited. Thank you for the video :)

Test is tomorrow, grateful for this video. Can feel the test anxiety just watching lol

Thank you very much for this video! Crystal clear explanations! keep the good work!

Great video and very informative. The following is a little off topic but relevant. Try to follow the complete lack of logic of the MTO, you do a written test and get a 90 day permit to get out on the roads and then you do this test of the most basic skills of controlling a bike. So for 90 days they have no idea if you've ever even sat on a bike but you can go out into traffic. This test should be done immediately after the written tests or you receive nothing. All these skills can be practiced in a parking lot no permit required; it's absolutely asinine to test these most basic skills after letting people loose on the roads. I mean, if you didn't possess these skills during your M1 period, you would have been in multiple accidents in no time. It's like letting you sky dive for a while and then testing you to see if you know how to open a chute.

Pretty impressive, Brooke! From timidly picking your feet off the ground to running the course in just a few weeks... quite amazing!

Thank you so much for this! I’m taking my course in Kingston this weekend. 🙏🏻

Very comprehensive instructions! Congratulations, Brooke! You did so well! You had a great teacher. 👍🏻👍🏻

I used the GROM today and i passed with 0 points deducted! I am so happy i finally got my permit!

Really helpful video i must say. Keep up the good work

I knew ur voice was familiar, you were my English teacher in high school or elementary, I can’t remember which. Good to see you doing well on RU-vid

Atta girl Brooke! I was taught to ride by an OPP motorcycle officer and he taught us to put our feet on the pegs AS soon as we started to move and not put them down again until we were just stopped. The problem with running along with your feet down is that if you catch your foot on a rock or a pothole, it will break your ankle.

Brooke is a lucky girl. Thanks for teaching me about the test Dad!

Thanks for the upload guys. 🙏

Thnak you! I was better prepared for the tests today after watching your video. I passed!

Good job on the video. Thx for the heads up!

Excellent video. Well done . Very helpful 👍👍👍

Great information. Thanks for sharing!

The test is pretty easy if you've ridden a bike before . . .even if you have no experience by the time you have gone through the training you should find it pretty easy. When I did the M1-M2 course most people enrolled had ridden a bike at some point in the past in fact I think the average age of folks doing the course was over 40!

Thank you for doing this!

Cool channel! I'm learning how to ride this summer :)

Awesome, impressive and you really look fantastic riding on your bike like a real mean girl ... 😀

Thank you so much this was extremely helpful !

I have my m2 road test soon but I did not take the safety course, this video helped me gain some insight on what the test is going to consist of. Thanks

Great video!!!

Thank You Very Very Much For Sharing Your Knowledge Good Sir 🍻

NIce and helpful! well done

Congrats brooke

Thanks for the video

Thanks so much and gave you a thumbs up

It’s that easy, I have been riding in the dirt for a long while and this looks plain easy

Thank you

Very informative and easy to follow. Are the majority of students successful passing the test?

Here in Spain it's a litle bit harder than there, we have to describe the outline of the leaves of a clover painted on the pavement, when we leave the clover without stopping we circulate about five meters on a curb of a width of approximately fifteen centimeters, then we enter a 90 degrees curve and at the end there are two horizontal sticks about thirty centimeters apart and we have to stop hitting the first one only without hitting the second one. all this in a one meter wide lane approximately delineated by lines and cones and with a limited time. Also we have to use ap to second gear at the end before break down. We have not points any fail is not allowed

I just did the M2 Test at an Ontario drive test centre - not with a rider training program. The Ontario-conducted road tests do not use any of these exercises. This only applies to rider training programs.

Great job buddy . It takes the fear out of many students and allows us home teachers to understand what is requested

great video

Thanks for sharing this, thinking of taking the course and getting my license this year. Do You get to choose what kind of motorcycle you ride during the course or are you just assigned?

Thanks

I’m getting my first bike next months and I could use some starter tips I already know about counter steering to turn in a little confused how I should shift my weight I’m not sure how long to use my clutch either

I really enjoyed this video and thanks for posting it. Questions On the course does one get a chance to practice all of the exercises first before one is tested on them.? On the point system say on the first exercise if one is to slow as over the 7.5 seconds one loses one point and also one point every time one goes out of bounds. If that person went out of bounds twice and too slow then it would cost them 3 point just in that one first exercise? So if one has 11 points against them they will pass while 12 is a failure. Also dropping the bike at any time is an automatic failure?

What if I'm driving Autho shift no manual gears Scooter or Electric bike. Are we forced to use manual gas engined motorcycles for test?

Thank You for that. I just scheduled my M2 Test today for next week. I am a 55 yo male...bought my 1st dirt bike (with my own money from working) at 12 in 1976 when it was legal to ride on the backroads in the Niagara Peninsula. Got my G licence at 16 and my M licence at 18. No nerves...easily passed both 1st time. Have over 1,000.000 kms in 4X4 trucks and SUV in 39 years and over 200.00kms on street bikes in the 37 years. 4 years ago I went to MTO to renew licence but they CLAIMED I owed $740 and wouldn't renew. I am on permanent disability, had no car or bike and an income of $1000 per month. $740 out of pocket was out of the question. Last year my father passed and left me $3400 (It's OK) I bought a 2002 BMW F650GS Dakar for $3 grand+$400 Tax (Gonna ride it RTW wink-wink..body has expiry date) Went to renew my licence and found out the $740 disappeared but my licence was suspended for letting it lapse for more than 3 years (rule came in 1995...15 years AFTER I passed my licence and the year of the birth of my 3rd son and when i started the 1st of 2 companies). Now my disability caused my poverty...my poverty prevented me from renewing my licence. The MTO discriminated against me now by retesting BOTH G and M licence from scratch. (No mandatory waiting time) but I have not only MTO exam costs but 50% insurers won't insure a bike (Mandatory for test) and the one that did wanted $2300 on the table because their computer said I was a NEW M1 rider. Under no fault...insurance companies must insure cars but not motorcycles. CATCH 22...I need a legal bike to get M2 and M license. No one rents bikes...Borrow a bike is like asking to BORROW your wife...as ot has always been. MTO don't ride so don't understand that. I got insurance through Co-operators much much cheaper but the only did that because I ride an Adventure Bike (no sport bikes or cruisers). I was sick to my stomach writing beginners and again now (Just read your comment below and see this isn't the M2 test). I suffer severe depression...3 heart attacks and a triple bypass and diagnosed with chronic lung disease last year..Should have bought an E-Bike...no licence...no insurance...don't even have to carry ID so just give a false name when I KILL someone and get caught for impaired...ride tomorrow. Naaaaa. It is Great riding again. How I have missed it..66 mpg and I can't stay out of the saddle. If I fail next Wednesday...I will have to leave my bike there because I won't be able to walk it home (Lung condition and no G licence to rent a truck) Free Bike anyone...available at Privately Owned Monopolized Test Centre in Ontario!!!

Looks fairly easy for an experienced rider.

Is flat footing with both feet a requirement?

Is this how the test is performed by the MTO? Or during motorcycle course?

Is this the test conducted by motorcycle school or directly by drive test? Because I remember seeing some orange cones in the drivetest parking lot for m1 exit test which I don't see here.

Do they provide bikes? Or do you need to pay one month of expensive insurance and rent a bike for the m1 exit test?

Do they get mad when you rev the engine numerous times when downshifting? 😉 Edit; do you not go into 1st gear when stopping? 10:15, or did you and I didn’t notice.

How long this Course last for 1week or 4 day???

Hi. I just want to know if i take my friend’s motorcycle for a test which has small little turning signals right with the tail light as people generally put fancy ones, will they make it a problem using the motorcycle for the M2 test?

👑I have to write a test and then take the course.

Sira Jatta

Is it a good idea to take this test with a bigger bike? I’m thinking CBR650R because that’s the bike I want to buy. I have many years of riding experience but don’t have a licence in Ontario. Would it be too bulky for those maneuvers or can you pull it off if you have enough experience?

Hello; During the year, which time is good to get M1 and M2 license? That means I want to get my m1 license on 17th of February, then I can make an appointment for m2 on 17th of April?

Do we need to bring our own bike for the test?

can we buy and drive bike after clear sign exam m1 and if we dont want to take course so what we have to do ?

do you have to do all this just to ride a moped?

Can I use scooter for the Test? Thanks

Is she riding a CB300f? I'm looking at one of those as my first street bike. I've had enduros and dirt bikes before so I'm confident with the clutch and shifting the only thing I worry about is the weight of the bike. I'm only 5'5 and the YZ125 I had was a 38 inch seat height which was difficult to stand on when at a stop. Thankfully the bike I am hopefully buying (if no one else gets it first) has a lowered linkage in it because the previous driver was short as well. But its a lot heavier than a dirt bike.

If it normal for a new rider to 100% get into accident at least once or more? as in not normal for new rider to 100% not get into accident at least once or more?

I can't get insurance for my bike since I have a M1 and no insurance = no plates. Can I tow the bike there and still do the test?

Can you make a video on best new motorcycles to buy in Ontario (Including insurance)? I'm struggling with insurance costs! :(( Plus Ninja 400 and R3 are being marked up really high!! :(( im thinking about WR250R as my first new bike.

The Ontario graduated Motorcycle system is broken. Most riders I spoke to write the M1 and do not ride until they can book an M2. Then, you cannot find an M2 test anywhere in eastern Ontario for months. Our preferred location is Cornwall but there is nothing up to Ottawa and even west of Kingston. Insurance on a 1982 XL500 is $650/month for an M1.

must you have your M1 license before you buy your bike?

Hi, this video is actually helpful a lot. Thanks. But May I ask you a question? I don't get what is the difference between M2 and Full-M license. For M2, (without any L or M condition), I am still allowed to drive full-speed motorcycles day and night. So I do not know what makes the difference between just M2 and Full M. Could you please answer me? I will really appreciate it.

I have had my m since 83 You should learn to detect a Indian Uber driver that will run your green at kennedy and vodden that will end your life If not assume every intersection will be like this. I'm amazed by what I see from new riders. Like your taught only how to pass, but I could tell you hours of spidie skills . Even with that, it takes a tremendous amount of concentration Good luck

Where is this so I can practice?

Just wondering what the length and width is of each one of the courses. Would love to practice as much as I can since I finally got my m1 license. I'm from Perth ontario

What saddlebags was Brooke using?

What do you do if you have an automatic transmission, or a CVT transmission? Do they just disregard gearing? Cause I wanna get the PCX150 Scooter while is considered a motorcycle.

This looks very local to me lol. I see the CN tower in the back. Which parking lot is this?

can it be done on an Indian 500 lb cruiser

For the emergency brake do you downshift to 1st before you stop? Or stop at the 2nd gear? Thank you

new rider here. is it worth it to finish those additional course for the insurance reductions?

Noticed no one was downshifting? Is there a specific reason for that? I understand you can stop safely in any gear, but would it not be better for the motor to cycle through your gears?

Where was this filmed? Looks like Kingston Ontario

What bike is that?

Thank you much. I was wondering if US motorcycle license is valid in canada.

just did this a few weeks ago, I lost a point because I did a false start and put a foot down... then nailed the time by over half a second because "even if you mess up, the clock is ticking, finish!" and on a Grom I think I used *all* the power.

Do you pull the clutch in to break softly. Like slowly release the clutch as you are applying both breaks

My course was cancelled due to lockdown. How do they expect people to practice with a bike and bring their own bike for the test if no one will insure an m1?! I mean technically they do insure m1 but I would be paying 3 times the value of my bike to do so :/

Everyone please use more speed then shown in this video, they are very strict & I lost points on speed

What kind of bike do you have to use ? Is there a particular CC ? Can I bring my own dirt bike ?

Is there a in class written test at all?

I got my M1 on a whim having never been on a motorcycle and the very first time riding was the day I rode my brand new CBR300RA home from the dealership back in 2016. Plenty of stalling to be had on the way home lol

Where to register for M2 training. Any leads will be appreciated.

No U Turn?

Do they supply the bike or do we rent one there? (referencing the Groms) I have a rather large bike and would prefer taking the test on one of those.

I already experienced riding my bike in my country for a year now and next year me and my family will move to Ontario because of my dad's work. I'm getting nervous watching this even though it's still a year until moving there. 😅😅

Please help i have my m2 coming up in 4 days and i would like to know how to setup the cones to swerve through!

did somebody fail?

Is the test the same for automatic scooters?

If I do it faster than 7m do I gain Points?

If you go over the lines you will loose points.
