Question:
My grandson wants a Harley Davidson; he is 17. I know he will ride a motorcycle regardless of what I want, so can anyone tell me where I can send him to learn to ride properly and responsibly before he gets a motorcycle? It scares me to death to think about it, but I feel if he learns from an expert he has a better chance of not being seriously injured.
Where is the battery usually located on a motorcycle?
Thank you for helping.

There should be a motorcycle safety foundation (MSF) course available somewhere in your area. I would call the Harley dealership (or any bike dealer) and they should be able to give you contact information.well i don't know were to go, but the way i learn how to ride a motorcycle is i found someone who does, they took me to a parking lot and tougt me how. then i learn more driver up and down the street, its almost like driving a car and a bike. just have to learn and beaware of other drivers and objects
I'm not to sure what you have available in your area, but there are really good motorcycle courses available. My daughter has taken it. She rides a new Harley now, as does her mother. I have ridden for 17 years now. Get in touch with the Harley Davidson dealer in your area and they should be able to point you in the right direction. Or for that matter any motorcycle dealership should be able to help you. Good for your grandson, Happy Riding!!
Can a motorcycle with two seperate lights on the front turn on off at will?
Many Harley dealers offer the Riders Edge program. You can also research the Motorcycle Safety Foundation (MSF) for courses in your area; they are usually taught at night and on weekends at local high schools or community colleges.Anybody know where I can get a front axle for a 05 or newer GSXR 1000?
I waited nearly 20 years because of women (mother, then wife) saying no. So far, I have 24,000 miles under my belt relatively event free. But more than knowing how to ride, he needs to know how to anticipate every person around him. People just don't pay attention.
Where is the engine oil on a suzuki katana ay50 ?
some harley shops have rider's edge...hd's rider training program. rider's edge uses the buell blast, and is roughly about 300 bucks. u could go thru the msf course that would be alot cheaper. google up msf course for a location near u.if he's planning on getting a buell, he shouldnt get the firebolt for a starter...that 1 would just have too much horsepower for a rookie to handle safely. a blast would be safer. sportsters, dyna's, and some of the softail's would be perfect for rookies. depends on how much he's willing to spend.
the only way he will survive the mean streets out there is to: never trust a car...period. always expect the unexpected. always respect the bike and ride within his limits.
i always assume a car is NOT going to stop for the stop sign, and IS going to turn left in front of me...and i always prepare for it. it's saved my a-ss on at least 2 occasions.
Do u get a motercycle licence when u turn 16? or do u get a permit first?
well dont let it gettoyour nerves.. most people tha ride take a spill. but i think that you should get him a dirtbike or somehting that will help b4 he kills himselfat least he doesn't want a sportbike.make him pay for the
bike has well has the classes.if he wants it bad enough he
can pay for it.
Do you need a motorcycle license or permit to buy a motorcycle?
Have him take the beginner rider MSF course. He will learn a lot from it. I took the expericed rider course. After riding over 20 years. I learned a lot in the 8 hrs. Just don't hand him a bike, he should earn it.So, i want a motorcycle. I'm 19 years(will be 20 in July)...?
even if someone will show him how to ride that doesnt matter that much. What matters is how alert he is. The other drivers on the road dont watch out real well. So he has to be alert of himself and all of the other drivers. If he is a daydreamer it isnt best to be on a motorcycle.How long would it take me to get a motorcycle license if...?
I don't know about other states, but ours (Wyoming) has a MSF course for beginning riders. It is a great class. And if a rider passes the class, he does not have to take a road test to obtain his license.I can't stress enough how wise it would be for your grandson to take one of these classes. Ours is a two-and-one-half day class and only costs $15.
Help with personality discription?
Don't let it scare you. Many 17 year old kids are excellent riders.
Oh yeah...one other thing: Don't buy the boy the bike. Let him pay for it himself. He'll take much better care of it that way. My 15 year old wanted a bike and we finally found a broken Kawi Ninja 250 that he could afford. It was a big project, but we got it all rebuilt...really nice too. But he had to pay for it and help work on it. Not only did he have the satisfaction of accomplishing something on his own, but he learned all about the workings of the bike also.
