Definately take the course. The advanced course is good, but you cannot take it unless you have your license & have been riding for over 2 years (I think that was the rule - check the website)

When did they start with the permit? I bought my bike with nothing other than good credit & an insurance card stating I had “motorcycle” insurance. That was 5 years ago.

(i got out of riding before my class came up) and also i believe ins goes down even though its only like 300 a year for full coverage on most bikes. look at liberty mutual for bike ins also really really cheap like 200 a year when i had mine. for a 1000 cc

Most insurance companies do not give the discount anymore. I believe it something with PA laws allowing them not to discount.
