cdy64118 yes that is true but of all people don't listen to what i have to say ha-ha (read KR Rules Prt 1-2) pretty good read but you will know what i mean...on another note the MSF course is great i still have my coupons from the class but i am thinking of doing it again just to see where i am going wrong...but the course is great the track day class is great too..but kinda hard to cram the flag colors and all the apex stuff oh well...

Hey md86 is that book any good i need as much learning as i can get and i don't think doing the MSF course more than three times is practical..but i have been wrong before

[md86]

No really , BUY THE BOOK !!!!!!!! You'll read it over and over and learn something new every time . I've taken to highlighting mine .

New to riding!

I just completed the local MSF beginner course this past weekend, and am looking into getting a Katana this weekend.

I'm planning on getting it home in the back of a truck, and then sticking to residential areas and big parking lots for a while until I really get the hang of it - I'm way excited to practice riding!!

As far as I know, you must supply your own helmet, gloves, jacket, boots, and atleast jeans. They provide the bikes. But that could have changed since I took it last, but I know charlie mav needed those items when she took hers a couple months ago or so.

I just took it here in Arizona, and they supply everything but the desire to learn. Bikes, helmets, gloves..

I don't even have my kat yet and i'm signed up for the BRC. We have to have it to ride on any militayr base. I would of taken it even if that wan't the case. do your research.
