Hello,
I'll stay six months in Florida (Miami) for a language course.
I would like to buy a used bike to enjoy Florida. I sell it cheap at the end of my trip.
I do not know if as a non French resident, I have the right to buy a motorcycle and use it over there!
Thank's you
Daniel.

Salut, Daniel!
Bien sûr. Tu peux bien acheter tous.
For riding a bike (bicycle), you don't need a permit.
But any motorized vehicle, you will need to register it (carte grise) with a proof of auto insurance and obtain an operator's license (permis de conduire). Please check out dmvflorida.org.
"Bike" in the U.S. can mean either "bicyclette/vélo (bicycle in English)" or "mobylette/scooter/vélomoteur" (motorcycle in English) or "cyclomoteur" (moped in English).
Which one are you buying?

Hi Prajna,
I want a motorcycle and not a bike.
I just changed my ad.
