Getting Your LicenseUpon completion of the Rider’s Edge® New Rider Course, you will receive a Motorcycle Safety Foundation completion card approved by the MissouriMotorcycle Safety Program. Take this completion certificate to any DMV in the state of Missouri* and the riding test to obtain your motorcycle endorsement on your license will be waived. Most insurance companies recognize this certification and apply a discount. In Missouri, to obtain your license, you will only need to take the written test. Check out the Missouri Motorcycle Operator Manual. |
Motorcycle and GearWe provide the motorcycle, and you provide the gear. We provide you with a 2009 Buell® Blast for use in the course. It has a 492cc engine, and is relatively small and lightweight, perfect for the beginner rider. Each student must provide their own D.O.T. approved helmet, eye protection, long sleeved shirt or jacket, jeans, full fingered gloves, and boots that cover the ball of the ankle. Students will need to bring these in on the second day of the course to get approved by the instructors. |
