I didn't have one for like a decade. but the only advice I can give (not sure on your state) is to actually know how to ride prior to field test.
I was shocked how many people couldn't ride and were taking the test; this one Lenny Kravitz breh in leather pants got fukkED up dropping his bike just going like 20 yards from cone to cone

yeah i plan to take the class
Wear a helmet and pray
I wish I had the courage to get a bike, they're cool as hell but so dangerous. My brother in law's close friend just had his foot amputated not too long ago after a motorcycle crash. Someone turned out in front of him, not much he could do. Lucky to be alive.
Be safe OP, wear that helmet, stay vigilant, and only ride in good conditions.

I would get a motorcycle but no matter how safe you are you gotta worry about everybody else

Was riding dirty for years, military mandated i take a BRC before I got a new bike.........thats what I get for running my mouth in the shop.......shyt was piff though........i took it through a tidewater cc and they provided shytty bikes to test on and classroom instruction........easy day.......the advanced riders course i took on the flight line at Schofield barracks was PURE fukkING PIFF........basically a track day.......free day off work.......to ride as close to the edge of your abilities as possible.......

That's why you dont ride near anyone else.........you are either faster than everyone else, or you are letting them go by........none of that means ride reckless.......it just means theres multiple big rig lengths between you and anyone else.......
I'm certain that it's fun as hell but you are also courting death. I used to be in New Hampshire for tax free groceries and shyt back in the day and I would always see motorcyclists with no helmet on. I would just shake my head.

Be careful out there! I’d love to get a motorcycle but too many people can’t drive and you can either get killed or be paralyzed for life. Gonna stick to my lil e bike lol
i laid down my boys 1100 one night on a street in front of the airport. i was lucky i didn't get run over. i was also lucky that i didn't take my potna up on his offer to take the bike home that night, because it was cold out and i didn't know how the cold affected the tires when you first start the bike up, and honestly i had no business on something that powerful. i hadn't been riding even 3 mos, and i didn't have a bike so i wasn't even riding regularly. i had just taken the class and gotten my license, and would ride my boys bike sometimes in the parking lot up at work.
i used to read the bike forums where dudes new to riding would always come in asking what their first bike should be, and when told to by the vets with years of riding to start on something small like a 500, there was always pushback. those vets would warn that certain bikes, even some 600's were too powerful and to learn how to ride first because those big bikes will make you pay for your mistakes. they talked about how when you fukk up on a big bike you'll find yourself on the ground before you even know what happened. and they were right. i was riding one minute, called myself "downshifting" to slow down at the light and the next thing i knew i was sliding down the street watching the bike slide in front of me. it felt like being woken up from a dream.
