Msf
 

So I just finished the course to be an MSF instructor. It was 8 days and it was brutal. More later.

You can buy shit cheap at cycle gear now.

score!

Congrats!!! That's awsome

Congrads! I have taken it 3 times. Passed each time.

Congrats.

I've considered doing this but just don't have the time or patience.

Since when are you an msf instructor?

That is awesome, maybe at the next rally we can do a day long ERC?

An instruction day at the rally would actually be really cool. Maybe do a riding class where we can discuss technique and such. Maybe do a garage tech class and try to show some good maintenance practices. Ask people what they want out of it and set it up that way. I wish we had an awesome suspension guru. That's what I really want to learn.

New thread started in events.

Congrats.

welcome to the ranks.

Congrats man. You will love it. I know I do.

That's a huge side perk. We get discounts all over the place for being a MSF Rider Coach. If you want, shoot me a pm, there is a website that lists many of the places we get a discount from.

I didn't know you were a Rider Coach also. Very cool. 3 of us on here now. That's scary :tremble: :rockwoot:

it's not like in on my sig or anything.....:lol

:?:

It's not like I have sig's and avatar's turned on or anything LOL. That whole "worksafe" thing. I haven't had sigs or avatars turned on in any forum in about 8 years :lol:

same here :lol:

I've always wanted to take the course but I've never had the time to put into it :(

Where are you coaching at these days...SBISD, Greens point or where?

Congrats

congrats I have to take another MSF course for Army sakes, not sure if they offer instructors course but I'd like to take it.

Does being an MSF instructor get you greater insurance discounts on your bikes?

Never said I was...

Nope. Taking the MSF doesn't even get me a discount. Niether does all my national accredited safe driving classes thru work.

the same as having taken the MSF class

NEON, can you send me that link, i had it at my lost job. i tried to use the list but alot of those discounts were outdated

LOW, SBISD was where i was teaching, but i haven't taught at all this yr, and don't know if i;m gonna get a chance now that the wife is working weekends, and its me and kids all weekend.

personnally i like C/G, they're brick and mortor, 3 in houston. reasonable prices vs dealers, no not as cheap as i-net, but resonable.

Well Amorok passed the msf instructor class, msf instructors get discounts, not msf students.

This is where you said it. He said he passed the MSF INSTRUCTOR course.

some ins. co's give discounts for having taken the class, state farm does.

WOO HOOOO!! Congrats!!!!!

Werd! The rider coach discount rocks!!!

Nice! I let my certification lapse at renewal time a couple of months ago, so I'll get to go through that whole course again once I have time to teach again.

How hard is it to take the instructor course? And what are the prerequisites?

And Rider gave me 5% for my MSF, USAA gave me 10%

it's not particularly hard, just takes alot of time.

in TX

you have to be a range aid X? times, like 6-7, that means 6-7 weekends you work for free and all weekend

then the class itself is 1 week long

+ you have to take the Basic class within a yr of trying to become an inst. so there's another weekend.

it's a good personnal rewarding thing, and it doesn't pay to badly either, on avg about $20/hr,

Dairyland gives us a discount for our MSF class certificates - don't recall what it is off the top of my head.

Congrats!

Thats something i wanted to do also, when i become a better rider.

Being an MSF coach is on my list of riding goals.

Congrats dude.

Just happened to get the bill for the premium due for Lisa's bike yesterday. Looks like 2% discount for MSF class. Also get discounts for home ownership and Winter, but it doesn't state how much.
