I took the MSF course when I got my "license" to ride. I been riding all my life, from mini's to my brothers 'ol '75 KZ Kawi, 1000cc. He used to put pebbles by the tires, to see if I was taking it while he was at work,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,like I was born yesterday lol. It's amazing how much I still use the info from the MSF course. Highly recommended to any who want to ride. My Granddaughter rides with me or her Dad. She's 8, and she's been riding since she was 5. I hafta keep checking to see if she's still with me, she's such a good rider. Every now and then I hear her giggle a bit when "puppa" runs up through the gears. She likes the Vance 'n Hines. She has a 4 wheeler, and to watch her ride is amazing. Very good at it. I ask her what kinda bike she's gonna ride when she's older and she says " the only one they make" ,,,,ahhhhhhh, she's such a sweetheart!
It don't matter really, as long as we all ride safe.
