Advanced Motorcycle Safety Course

The Advanced Rider Course is a one-day course intended for motorcyclists who have completed the Motorcycle Safety Foundation Basic Rider Course or have a similar experience level.

The classroom segment focuses on the behavioral aspects of riding such as attitude and personal risk assessment, and includes discussions about braking proficiency, cornering techniques, traction management, and specific characteristics unique to sport bikes. The goal is to provide riders with a way to further develop personal riding strategies to minimize risk, with particular emphasis on the Search-Evaluate-Execute (SEESM) strategy used in all MSF curricula. A knowledge test is given at the end of the classroom portion.

The range session builds on these topics by providing riders the opportunity to develop and improve skills in braking, cornering and swerving. Included is a demonstration of the components of total stopping distance and practice in obstacle avoidance and evasive maneuvers.
