Yup, So I had to do all the exercises first. Easy stuff really, even the tight turns were a breeze. I think I was the only one in the class to every get to third gear...

Now after riding for almost 40 years, I'm going to have a motorcycle license...

Those 125's are really small, huh?

I got to ride a Suzuki GZ 250... When I hit third gear, they thought I was running away. Turns on a dime...well, maybe a nickel...

Same here! I got mine last year. First I'ver everhad. We rode Buell 500's in our class. I really leked it. I got the award for MOST LIKELY TO ACCELERATE!

I got the award for MOST LIKELY TO ACCELERATE!

 

One of the instructors saw me sitting on the back of the seat revving the throttle and called me over to say that doing a wheelie would be considered an unsafe act and would disqualify me from the class... so, no showing off.

I ask the instructor if I passed another rider would I be failed. He said no, but I would get a stern talking to. He was a really good instructor and just one of the guys. He recognized I was the only rider in the class that had ridden before.

Same thing with me. 

i was riding a Kaw dual sport 125.

I had only been riding for about a month, but I was the only one.

they had us ride over some 2 x 4's as an obstacle in the road.  That bike was so small, I could almost bunny hop over them.  It was like riding my old HUFFY from when I was a kid.

I used American Ace RiderCourse. They had a Sat/Sun class in Lancaster at Cedar Valley College. Only about an hour from home. I really like them a lot. They knew I had been riding for years and helped me iron out a few bad habits I had picked up.
