sure it's already been mentioned, but spend $250 and take the MSF Course and you'll pass the riding exam no problem. for those that can't pass the exam, sorry but you really don't have the fundamentals to safely ride on the street. yes you may ride daily without any problems, but there are a few pickle situations that those skills could be the difference between you walking/riding away from an incident, being paralyzed or dead.

I've ridden with a few guys and had some extremely close calls that they said were luck, I say they were due to the MSF and plenty of practice. Even though I've been riding for years, I still occasionally find a parking lot and practice emergency stops, swerving and etc. There's not too many days that go by where I don't have to use some of those skills to ensure that I remain on two wheels.
