Title: Just Saying Hello
Post by: jumanji969 on June 19, 2006, 03:34:50 PM
Just stumbled across these forums as I am very new to motorcycles.  So new in fact, I am going to take the MSF class in a few weeks.  I am very excited though and can't wait to ride my dads GS500 some more.  Figured this looks like a great place to learn more about the machine I'm riding and a great community in general.

Motorcycle Safety Foundation course.  It's where they teach you, either how to ride, or how to ride better, safer.  Negotiate an emergency stopped bus...

Moped Safety Foundation. They teach you how to ride at no more than 20 mph.
