Not in Ohio. If you got the money, you can buy the bike.

lol yeah, they dont care... at all. you could tell em your buying the bike for a suicide attempt and they'd smile and sell it to you.

They never asked me if I have a license when I bought either of my bikes (I live in Alberta).

No. If you would like to know all the proper steps involved in getting a motorcycle (because being taught step-by-step how to do it seems almost impossible) go here:

I made that page myself, specifically to help people answer questions like yours and more. Hope you find it helpful...

In most states you do not need a license to purchase, but no insurer will underwrite an UNlicensed rider... (think about it).
