    I took the class in California, the CMSP. It was definitely worth it. I went from not knowing how to ride a motorcycle at all to zipping around that course. It really made me think about safety and rethink how I handled road rage in my cars. None of that is worth it, especially on two wheels. I just bought my first motorcycle, a 2015 Yamaha Bolt!

    I tell people to get training even if they don’t plan on getting a motorcycle. My reason is even though I have a class a commercial license that when I took this MSF class that it helped me improve my driving as well. It teaches you to have a constant attention all around you no matter what you drive and as a rider it also taught me to even more vigilant around other riders as well that I go the extra mile looking out for bikes on the road.

    @miporsche 3 ปีที่แล้ว +33

    I got my motorcycle license in San Diego in 1990 or 91. It was different. If I remember, I studied from the state DMV book, took the written test, then drove on the DMV’s tiny bike for an examiner. Super easy. I don’t know what it’s like nowadays in California. It’s probably much like the video. My first bike: I bought a Honda Magna and drove it everywhere. I was careful, but I developed my own habits. Loved it! I mostly rode alone. Never did group rides. I rode solo to the Grand Canyon and up the coast to Cambria to visit my sister. Once I rode with my brother into Mexico. Mostly, I just commuted in San Diego traffic. The motorcycle solved the parking problem. I sold the motorcycle when I moved to Kansas in 96. Now, my 18 year old daughter and I are about to get our Kansas motorcycle licenses. I signed us both up for the Wichita MSF class in April. I expect she’ll do great. She already drives a manual transmission car, so clutch operation should not be difficult for her. I hope I can do OK. I will need to learn the best practices, and unlearn some of my self taught stuff. I haven’t ridden a motorcycle in over 20 years. Should be fun learning again. It will be special, learning to ride with my daughter.

    I recommend these classes to everyone over The New Rider class @ Harley. I've taken both. Harley's class used to use the 500. Now they use the x350 where the foot pegs are behind you like a sports bike. The bikes at MSF are way more comfortable and help you to build confidence in your ability to ride. 💚💚💚💚💚💚I loved my first class so much! Highly recommend you go to an MSF SCHOOL rather than a branded Harley class!!!!!!!!

    @johnnybutton54 2 ปีที่แล้ว +14

    I took the MSF class and enjoyed the interaction with other riders. Many were helpful and a few were too advanced to share tips with rhe new rider. Each course will have different levels of riders that actually help by watching in the difficult phases. My largest complaint is the instructor we were paired with. The gentleman was not a coach or a teacher, he was difficult to work with. That will immediately turn some folks off, but press on. The class activity at my course was also not helpful, instead we were instructed to take an online practice quiz with any information available in the same MSF teaching video (what his job was). My advice, do take the class, it has plenty of value. However, if it is apparent you will have difficulty with the trainer. Resign from the course as soon as possible and request a different class on another date. YOU are the customer and you are paying to learn skills needed to ride safely, and not putting up with up with abusive personalities with a drinking problem.

    I remember the course fondly. I went in with very little knowledge, and it really brought my confidence up from absolutely zero. It also provided good opportunities for one-on-one tutoring from the instructors. That, and because I live in Chicago, the DMVs here are almost always packed. It was nice not to have to go to the DMV to take the final test.
    Unfortunately, we had three folks drop out by the third day. One poor gentleman panicked and grabbed the throttle mid turn, hit a curb, and flipped. Thank God he was wearing a helmet. He was fine aside from some scrapes and bruises. Looking back on it, it was awesome. Definitely a little rough the first day, but I wouldn't be where I am today without it. I'd love to hit the course again with my sporty just to see how I improved.

    Never ridden a motorcycle before,, 🏍 always rode on the back of bikes like my husband who's been riding since the 70s,, I took the Harley Davidson safety course did not do to good the first time dumped the bike, both the bike and I got banged up,, so the coach recommended me to do the enchantment skill class the coach was excellent worked with me tell I got the hang of it👍🏻 so I did did the second class,, these coaches where tough ,, they were good & I passed ,, so now I have been riding with my husband in traffic he rides behind me on his Harley sportster while I ride on my brand new Honda Rebel 300cc,, still a little nervous with speed and need to still work on my turns,, my husband gets on me about riding to close to the double line,, and ride closer to the right.

    I really enjoyed watching this video. It gave me some great insight as to what to expect when I take the BRC course.
    Due to Covid putting a strain on BRC class sizes. I did things a little bit backwards.
    I bought a bike and took the written test at the DMV to get my motorcycle permit. This way I could ride with some experienced riders until I could sign up for a BRC at a local college, because there wasn't a Harley dealership close to me that offers a course.
    I was finally able to get my seat saved for a course at the end of June 2021.

But I can say that NOT once did I ever drop the bike.
