Can a driver without a motorcycle license, insure a motorcycle?

[Greg R]

To be more specific, here is the story. I am a 20 year old male from Illinois and getting motorcycle. Insurance is something I dont want my name in, well I want to be a second driver. The question is can the insurance be written to my dad, who does not have a motorcycle license. He does have a regular license. I know that second drivers are insured. So I would be paying less money for insurance, but I would be able to drive my bike. My dad will be getting a license, but first needs a motorcycle. So again can he get insurance on this motorcycle without a license?
I did take the MSF course. Also the motorcycle needs to be insured for the road, so my dad can take the test at the DMV and I can drive around. Thanks all!
