RE: MSF Anyone?
I recently talked to a guy who attended our state run course (Ohio). He said it was very good. They really spent a lot of time on defensive driving and evasive techniques. He said it was worth it...

RE: MSF Anyone?
I just took the course at the Harley dealer here in Orlando. Best thing I did. Three of their instructors are active motorcycle cops. After 25 years of being away from riding I wanted a couple of things out of the course..... endorsement for license, insurance discount but most important was to level set my head and learn/revalidate skills.
For me, it was a great decision. Harley gives some perks for the class, $75 off a bike purchase, $40 in HOG bucks and a 24 hr free rental to try different bikes.
Cheers...Dennis

For a test, one can take that at the Florida DMV and I there is not a charge for that...just real long lines & delays. Small fee for adding the bike endorsement since they reprint your license.
The MSF done at Harley has a straight test for your license endorsement for $85. I took the soup to nuts course, 15 hours (5 classroom & 10 on their track). That was $280 & I get back $125. After you pass the tests, class & track, take your MSF card to the DMV & for $15 you get the bike endorsement added to your license.

RE: MSF Anyone?
Fabulous MSF course here in Missouri. Depending on where you take it, costs run about $!75 (county parks or Community College). Even though I had ten years of ridiing experience (from several years ago), I found lots of bad habits I needed to correct, plus lots of new skills I didn't even know I needed. Standouts: turns with the SLPR approach. Sharp slow turns with REALLY turning your head to watch where you want to go, not what's right in front of you; general defensive riding tactics.
Good luck - you won't regret it.
