I never noticed that alot of you guys are from Washington. Why don't you guys have a BIG KLX Day out. You guys should really push the KLX to the extreme and go slap a bear while your in some knarley terrain and then gun it on your KLX and see whos the fastest[sm=yikesomg.gif]. Make sure to get some pictures!!

I think they are about 8 ft apart, which sounds like a lot, but even with the 13 tooth on the bike I had to feather the clutch so as not to go too fast. The only guy out of the 6 of us that took the test that day only one guy didn't pass and I think it was because he was on a 250 ninja, and the steering is really short on those bikes. He hit the same cone twice. Man I'm glad that's over.

Awesome Deej and Scat. Now you can have some fun out there without having to worry about the boys in blue giving you a hard time. I have the license... just need the bike. haha. And i know you're all sick of me deciding between the 250 and the 650, so I won't start .

westcan,
I don't know where you're located at, but I must commend you on your choice of actions!
As an MSF RiderCoach I see on a regular basis folks that can squeak by on the license test that really have no concept of riding a motorcycle. The test is most states requires you to make slow speed manuvers on a motorcycle, but nothing above 5 mph of speed is required. How many times to you actually ride at that speed?
While the MSF Basic Rider or Experienced Rider Courses are not the best in the world, they are - in my opinion - so much ahead of whatever else there is out there. That's why I have taken the time and effort to become certifified and also to teach. Believe me, it is not for the money that I spend summer days out on the asphalt where the temps are in the 120's. It is because there are so many folks out there that really do not know how to ride.
Neither MSF course will make a proficient rider, but it will teach you the skills necessary so that you can practice on your own to become a safe and skilled motorcyclist.
I highly recommend it for ALL riders! In the almost 1500 students that I have taught, I have NEVER had one that has not learned something from the course when I teach it. I have had several of them come back and tell me "THANK YOU!" when they have used one of the skills that I instilled in them to save their butt in an emergency situation. Most of them feel that their money is well spent when they complete either the Basic or Experienced Rider Course at the facility that I teach at.
Thanks for making a wise choice.

Something to think about - - - - - My School owner is also an avid dualsport rider. I have a lot of latitude when doing classes with scheduling and such.
I would not be against putting something together down in Florida - I would strongly suggest the Experienced Rider Course . . . . you use your own bike, it's a single day and it's only $70! (I can get a discount if I set the whole thing up)
If there is adequate interest, I will look into scheduling a class, just let me know.
I would love nothing more than having a class with nothing but dualsport bikes - mostly KLX250S's.
After the class, we could go exploring in the Ocala National Forest!
