98% on the written and aced the skills test ...no penalty points. I'm headed to the MVA in the morning to get the little "M" on my license. Then I can finally ride the FZ6R that I've owed for two weeks . :D

You may want to check with your insurance company, as some companies give a fairly large discount for completion of the MSF course. I think they require a copy of the paperwork, but definately worth checking into for a possible discount.

Congrats, I think the MSF course is good for a 10 or 15% discount on your insurance. I think the MSF should be mandatory to get the class M endorsement. Plenty of squids that have no clue how to do anything other than twist the throttle. Now go for a ride.

:Sport:

CONGRATS!!

I'm busy Saturday next weekend, but I'm sure the locals would be down for a ride. We just picked up a local who's had his license for 4 days now, rode yesterday with him, got a 1980 XS400. You should come down to Moco and meet the group.

Scott, after taking the class, I couldn't agree more. I am so glad I went this route instead of getting a learner's permit. As far as anything related to my motorcycle, this was by far the best $300 I'll ever spend.

MistahT, let me know when you're getting together again. I'd be down for meeting some local riders.

Wow, I think mine was free or at the least much much cheaper. Did mine about 5 seasons ago. Still after doing it that way I'd recommend it to anyone even at that cost.

Actually, it was $350 through the Rider's Edge program at the HD dealership. Still worth every penny IMHO. The fact they took someone who had never even been on a bike before and gave them the skill (and confidence) to pass the course like that speaks volumes to me. :)

Yup, I think pa only charges a registration fee which is pretty cheap. Yeah, I agree it's a great course. Guys that had been riding for years on permits went and had more difficulty then new riders. My msf coach always said, anyone can ride fast, but not everyone can ride slow.

If it's not wet or actually raining when I get home, I'm going to take it for a couple spins around the block. I can't just NOT ride it. :D

Congrats! I took mine through a local CC and it was right around $140... but def. worth every penny for someone who had never ridden before... still have to get out and practice as they really do teach the basics, but it's a great start.
