Title: passed a MSF course Sunday...
Post by: Slavik on July 12, 2005, 07:10:24 AM
perfect riding score, 1 off on written....yeeehaaa :cheers:

now got to run to DMV and get that M added to my liscence :)


The experience with the course was great, thanks to the great instructors, it was fun and much of the info was very usefull.  Riding a dualsport for a couple of days, really got me interested inthese bikes, it definately has TONS of fun potential......as far as the tests, both were pretty easy if you paid attention in class, so for those who still have yet to take it - DON"T SWEAT IT the only way to fail it (it seems to me at least) is to fall off the bike or to badly mess up EVERY one of the exersises

oh, and one more thing, I am happy that i got to ride around a bit before MSF....at least this way at least stuff like shifting and feeling the friction zone didn't cause any problems

congratulations, I found the MSF course to be well worth the money as well.

Ride safe.

that is sweet of your state!

in Florida it cost me $75 in 1999. But the cool thing is I have moved twice now, and as long as you have the "M" class on your license they will transfer it no problem.

I was the other way...  100 on the written and one (Well, 5 really) off the riding...  Locked up the rear in the quick stop. :dunno:

i made a stupid mistake on the written, i missread the question on what is considered to be one drink (since the review had a same question asking the oposite) and said that 3 shots is one drink.........which was true back in russia :) who the hell drinks vodka by an oz. ?  :nana:

:dunno: You got me...

I thought those questions were kinda funny too...  They put WAY more than an ounce in mixed drinks in the bars I frequent. :thumb:
