No. In fact, it is possible that some insurance (especially life insurance and health insurance) could have higher premiums, or may have riders excluding coverage while riding a motorcycle. The exception is that you may qualify for a discount on motorcycle insurance if you take and pass an MSF (Motorcycle Safety Foundation) rider's course. I have never been offered a discount on any merchandise because I have a motorcycle license. In fact, once you buy a motorcycle, you'll probably be spending a lot of money on riding gear (helmets, boots, leathers, etc.) and on custom parts and upgrades for your motorcycle (it becomes a bit of an addiction).

I'm guessing that you have a son (or daughter) who wants a motorcycle, and is trying to talk you into it, and who has come up with this grand scheme to convince you that it will somehow translate into a financial windfall. If that's the case, don't buy it. I love motorcycling, and encourage all who are interested to become involved, but it's not right to use this type of method. Money can be saved, though, as motorcycles are not (usually) as expensive as cars, and they get much better mileage. The safety aspects must be considered, of course, as well as weather limitations - replacing a car with a motorcycle doesn't always work out to 100% satisfaction with regard to practical applications.

No. Some companies will offer a discount on insurance if you take a MSF approved course every couple of years (Experienced Rider Course).
Some vendors may offer a discount to selected owners associations like GWRRA or the Harley Owners Group, but that's in no way connected to holding a license.

Hi. I have been licensed as a motorcyclist for over 35 years and NEVER gotten a discount on anything. Most Insurance companies consider that a risk.

In California it's not an option. You're supposed to have a motorcycle license if you ride one. You won't get insurance for the bike without one..much less discounts. You will be ticketed if found riding without one.
