It would depend on state laws if you would be able to acquire a motorcycle license when your passenger motor vehicle license is revoked. Some states might allow you to drive a motorcycle while others will not allow you any driving privileges.

Some states have the motorcycle license as an addendum to a normal driver's license, thus it would be highly unlikely that you would be able to obtain privileges to drive a motorcycle with a revoked regular driver's license. Other states have the motorcycle license as a totally separate license so it might be possible to get it.

In California, vehicle code 23660 states that when a license is revoked or suspended, that the person shall surrender each and every operator's license to the court. From that statement it would appear that no licenses are allowed while your driving privileges are revoked.

So to find out for certain what the laws are in your state regarding you obtaining a motorcycle license while having your main driving privileges revoked, check with your Department of Motor Vehicles.
