MSF RIDING COURSE QUESTION

flightdoc · 09-27-2007, 10:03 AM

Out of curiosity how many of us have taken ANY of the MSF riding courses? There is the basic, intermediate and experienced.

I took the basic course and tested and got my MC endorsement during the course.

Took the Basic course 50,000 miles ago and very glad that I did. Maybe it's time to go back for the intermediate course.

In Utah we only have basic and advanced. I have taken the basic and would really like to take the advanced. Utah suggests the advanced after 1000 miles on the bike.

i took the beginners back in july waiting to use the advanced as defensive driving course if need be

unwind2 · 09-28-2007, 09:23 AM

Basic in 2000.

**scion0** · 09-28-2007, 11:38 AM

Basic so far. Would be worried about the advanced (dropping the new bike and such :-))

**Idaho** · 09-28-2007, 08:41 PM

Wolfman is correct, all Idaho has is basic and advanced. I still need to go again.

Basic only so far. Texas is Basic & Experienced only as well. Learned a lot in the course and the questions from the book were reflected in the written err... computerized MC test.

I took the basic course. I had 3 bikes 30+ years ago. My son (he is 20) suggested we get bikes. I told him I would so long as he agreed to buy gear that I approved and always wear it, and that we take the MSF course together before we started riding. I have nothing but praise for the course. Very well done.

If nobody minds I'd like to refresh this topic every once in awhile. We have been picking up newbies pretty fast and I'm really curious how many of us have taken any of the MSF riding courses. If you've already posted on this comment please don't bother again.
Thanks for indulging me.

I was a couch / instructor for MSF. tought the basic course, not an easy thing to do, long hours and lots of paperwork. Very rewording.
