Riding before driving? (pawb.social)

I'm going to college soon, and have been considering getting a cheap motorcycle, maybe a Royal Enfield. I don't have a driver's license yet (not needed to get motorcycle license in my state), just a permit. Is it a good idea to learn to ride before you have much experience in a car? (I'd be getting professional riding courses through my state DOT). Can't afford a car, and the campus is very scooter / motorcycle friendly.

Saturday mornings before 10 or 11 and Sunday mornings between 8:30/9 and 11 (before the church crowd lets out) seem to be times for me when the roads are totally dead so you may have them consider those times.
