Hannah Posted July 5, 2017 Report Share Posted July 5, 2017 Hello! I'm interested in practicing for the motorcycle test (have my permit) and would like to borrow a bike for a day sometime next week. I've rode motorbikes while traveling abroad - so I'm not completely new - but could use some practice on a real bike. Thanks in advance! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hiro Posted July 5, 2017 Report Share Posted July 5, 2017 Agreed about taking the course. $50 and you get a $50 insurance discount. There is one starting tomorrow! Listed twice it seems. Once for ONE opening and another time it shows walk-in only. Odds are not to bad for a walk-in from what I've seen. 7/6/2017 - 7/9/2017 Thursday(7/6) 06:00 PM - 10:00 PM; Saturday(7/8) 07:00 AM - 01:00 PM; Sunday(7/9) 07:00 AM - 01:00 PM; Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
motocat12 Posted July 5, 2017 Report Share Posted July 5, 2017 Why not just get a bike now? I got a bike before the permit. The types most people have here aren't learner bikes. What size did you ride abroad? how tall are ya? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Killer_kaw Posted July 6, 2017 Report Share Posted July 6, 2017 Welcome if you don't have a motorcycle the link @Isaac's Papa provided would be perfect. You'll spend 2 days practicing and ride through the test course at the end. If all goes well they'll give you a certificate stating you've passed the course and you can get your license. For $50 it's a no brainer. They supply the motorcycle for the course. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

marlboro man Posted July 6, 2017 Report Share Posted July 6, 2017 welcome to OR don't let the leg Humpers get to you unless they let you use their bike . on second thought you better just borrow a bike from a bar parking lot take it out for a joyride bring it back park it in a ditch & go in bar & say you just caught somebody stealing a bike and you will end up getting free drinks. Motorcycle safety course is the way to go don't try to One wheel it or scrape pegs 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jbot Posted July 6, 2017 Report Share Posted July 6, 2017 so what kind of bike would you like to borrow? got any models in mind? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
what Posted July 6, 2017 Report Share Posted July 6, 2017 (edited) She said real bike, anybody got a harley? er... ducati? Take the MSF course, it lets you skip the riding portion of the license test and is all-around a good idea. There are even a few instructors associated with this forum if you happen to have any questions. Right @jacobhawkins?

hiro Posted July 6, 2017 Report Share Posted July 6, 2017 Yeah, unfortunately, no one is likely to volunteer their bike. It might be different if it were a dirt bike kept off road. Hey, anyone want to let me ride a dirt bike?? I think it would help my street skills. One day Imma get one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wojo72 Posted July 6, 2017 Report Share Posted July 6, 2017 You can borrow my GSXS while I am out of town next week. Real world practice is the way to go.. I'll leave my garage unlocked. Just lock it up after you are finished. Can you feed the fish while you are there? 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hannah Posted July 6, 2017 Author Report Share Posted July 6, 2017 If the last offer was genuine, that'd be awesome 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
what Posted July 6, 2017 Report Share Posted July 6, 2017 There are some races this weekend up at Mid-O, you can borrow my Ducati if you want to use the races as practice. It's in the middleweight twin class. I think it's only a couple hundred bucks to register and race. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Disclaimer Posted July 6, 2017 Report Share Posted July 6, 2017 As much as I'd love for this to devolve into another Kay thread. I can actually vouch that Hannah is real and she's got no malicious intent. I cannot vouch for how well she rides, but her request is innocent. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
