To go from Novice 1 to Novice 2, you have to stay incident-free for 12 months.
If you go for your “M” endorsement on a moped, you get a “J” restriction and keep your “R” if you already had one. In the Novice 2 stage you can only ride motorcycles or mopeds up to 400cc. Once you’re through the novice stages, you can ride mopeds as an experienced rider but you’re still considered a learner (with learner restrictions) on any larger motorcycles.
When you’re eligible to graduate to Novice 2, you have to pay your $500 MGDL fee (unless you’ve successfully completed an SGI-approved motorcycle training course and can show proof).
Pass
You completed 12 consecutive months as a Novice 2 rider without any interruptions or incidents! You graduate to an unrestricted “M” Endorsement, making you an experienced motorcycle rider. We’ll mail your new valid licence to you.
Fail
If your 12 consecutive months in Novice 2 have incidents, you have to restart the Novice 2 stage and stay incident-free for the entire 12-month period. You're also placed in the MGDL Improvement program.
Motorcycle Unrestricted “M”
To go from Novice 2 to a full, unrestricted “M” motorcycle licence, you have to stay incident-free for 12 months.
Rebate
If you joined the program after Jan. 1, 2016, completed an SGI-approved motorcycle course before you graduated and graduated from the MGDL program incident-free – no licence suspensions or motorcycle traffic convictions/at-fault collisions, and remained a Saskatchewan resident maintaining your licence here, you’re eligible for a $450 rebate. We'll notify you if you're getting a rebate.
