The rules of the road don’t change, but you’d be an extremely inexperienced rider. Maybe? But I wouldn’t

Would you be comfortable enough to pass the road test? That is all dependent on your ability to ride safely during the Road Test. If you dont think you have the confidence to do it, then you should probably get your own bike for more experience, you could rent their bikes, but why spend more money renting when you're buying anyways.

Just curious whats the reason for not buying a bike right away?
Thanks guys, I had the wrong idea. I was under the impression that people normally buy their bike after passing their road test since they’re less likely to drop it.

I don’t have an issue buying a bike right away. I’ve already been browsing to see what I might be interested in and looks like I’ll buy a bike after my MST is done.
