Motorcycle SafetyCourse Information

The Motorcycle Basic Rider course is for both the inexperienced rider or for a rider needing the Motorcycle Safety Foundation certification and teaches the basic techniques of safely riding a motorcycle. The course meets S.C. law for an insurance discount so please contact your insurance company to verify your eligibility. Motorcycles are provided; use of personal motorcycle is optional. Students must pass both a written and riding assessment to receive the Motorcycle Safety Foundation card. Prerequisite: Basic Rider enrollees must be eligible for a driver’s license and able to ride a bicycle. Books included.

The Motorcycle Experienced Rider course is a skills tune-up for the experienced rider and a refresher for licensed operators or for those riding with a passenger. Both the rider and the passenger must be registered as students (course fee is for rider only). This course meets S.C. law for an insurance discount so contact your insurance carrier for eligibility. Students must pass both a written and riding assessment. Students must provide a street-legal, insured and fully registered motorcycle; proof of ownership is required. Prerequisites: Students must have either an M class motorcycle license, motorcycle license endorsement or a motorcycle learner’s permit.
