The official book the Tennessee motorcycle knowledge test is based on — where to get it and how to study it.
The Tennessee Department of Safety and Homeland Security publishes the current motorcycle manual on its official site. Always study the latest edition.
Every question on the Tennessee motorcycle knowledge test is drawn from the official motorcycle operator manual — a different book from the regular car driver handbook. Always study the most recent edition published by the Tennessee Department of Safety and Homeland Security, because rules and numbers change between revisions.
Read one chapter at a time, then test that chapter with the practice test before moving on. Pay extra attention to chapters on gear, the pre-ride inspection, hazard awareness (SEE), and emergency maneuvers — these are the most heavily tested sections. Score 24 of 30 correct (80%) to pass.
