That's another thing about modern MSF, and I'll take on all comers on this one!!! They no longer take them on the road at all... How much can you really learn about street riding in a parking lot? Technically, this course is for people who have never even touched a bike before. They take them out, sit them in a class and ride them around a parking lot on 250s and bang they have a license and can go out and buy a 'Busa! I don't know but it seems sketchy to me. I guess it's better than nothing but I think that if there wasn't this course most people would get help from family and/or friends... I'm not sure which is worse to tell you the truth... at least when new riders got permits, they had to have someone with experience with them to ride.
