Your riding skill and your mechanical knowledge form the foundation for safe riding practices. We suggest that you practice riding your motorcycle in a non-traffic situation until you are thoroughly famil iar with your machine and its controls. Again, consider taking one of the msf's rider courses.
Even experts will be pleased with the caliber of the information presented in these courses. As the msf says: "the more you know, the better it gets!"
