Thanks,

Your M2 is good for 5 years from the date you got it. So in your case you should be good until July 13. But why wait that long? If I were in your shoes I would be booking a course or your test in May.

Tooo often people get comfortable with their M2... Specially when the only restriction is no alcohol. Next thing you know the license is expired or its two days till it expires and your scrambling for a test date. Book it early. I went and got my M after a year with the M2. Ever since I've been sitting back and watching people have issues with forgetting.

Thanks for the info. For the past few years my work schedule has made it very hard get in enough riding and to do the exit course. I am going in May to finally complete it.

I thought you had to wait 22 months?

You would be correct, unless you do the 2nd safety course... which reduces it to 18.

"You must pass an M1 road test or complete an approved motorcycle safety course before receiving a Class M2 licence. You must have a Class M2 licence for a minimum of 22 months. If you complete an approved motorcycle safety course, you may reduce this time requirement by four months."

Just to clarify, you only have to wait 18 months if you have taken the M1exit class. You wait 22 months if you did not take a course at all. You only need to take the first course to shorten the waiting periods, not the M2X.

Question for Cutekill.
I took the Learning Curves M1X and got my M2 on August 8th. If I take my M2X this summer, will the paperwork be valid by December 8th when I'm eligible to submit it?
