Def get on the MC license quick like! The cops here dont care to much for non licensed riders! Either by MSF or going to the DMV and taking the rider course. Make sure you call ahead there is usually a few weeks wait for the test.

Glad to have ya!!

Welcome to the site! As Arson said, take that test ASAP. The line at the DMV just gets longer as the weather improves.

Don't feel too bad, you fall within the 65% of the riders in Las Vegas that ride dirty (no license or insurance, or both). 80% if you're in North Town.

Cops here will find an excuse to pull riders over, and chances are they will hit paydirt and it will cost you over $1000 after fines, towing and impound fees.

Below is a link in which you can take a class at CSN. If you're successful, you will receive a completion card which you can take to the DMV and get your M endsorsement without any further testing. The college will do all the testing on behalf of the DMV, written and riding evaluation. Plus you can save up to 30% on your insurance because it's a safety course and you get an automatic 15% discount at Cycle Gear.

All that for just $60 and about 8hrs. That's for the experienced rider's course. $100 for the basic riders course if you're an inexperinced rider or if you don't have a bke to ride, and it takes 2 1/2 days.

I did not know you get a discount at cycle
gear. Is that just with the endorcment or with the MSf card? If it is with the card I might jus have to Break down and go o class

ars0n750 · 02-26-2010, 08:12 AM

IF you are an msf instructor you get a 15% discount at cycle gear whenever. I think.

It's a one time purchase, so I always tell the students make it count! They will log in your MSF Completion card # in their computer system so they will know if you have used your discount. But the biggest saving is the insurance, as most insurance companies will offer a discount to your exhisting policy, which can be up to 30% depending who you're with. 50% if you're an instructor. STATE FARM does not offer any discount! Period.

Instructor's get 30% discount on most items, I think only 20% on tires and helmets. It's great, I get many items and wear them all the time in class and everyone asks what it is and where I got it. It's like I'm a walking billboard. It's literally becomes a show n tell.

It makes it worth while just to become an instructor. Anyone interested here is a link to sign up. But the spring classs is already filled up, but maybe next year.
