I can understand how she feels. Maybe show her the basics, and from reading the book for her temps she'll learn a little about bikes and how to manuever. My dad taught me to ride using his old Honda CB1000, learning to balance, going straight, and then doing turns. From there, I was going to go to take the course but after I kept riding (and getting better), I eventually just decided to go take the exam for my license. I've been riding for about 10 years now.
