Class Locations
Motorcycle Safety Class Offerings Listed By State
While this is a fairly comprehensive list, there may be omissions and overlaps. Click on your state to jump to that section.
Keep in mind that not all states accept the guidelines and curriculum set forth by the Motorcycle Safety Foundation. Also, in some states, the locations listed by the Motorcycle Safety Foundation may be different than those listed by individual state programs. In Ohio for instance, the name of the state run program is Motorcycle Ohio. The MSF lists locations not found on the Motorcycle Ohio list and vice versa. While this list may not be comprehensive, great lengths were taken to find as many locations in each state as possible. As a result, some location listings may overlap. In other words, there may be some duplication. The MSF links often have many locations listed, as do the state programs. Some listings are provided here as well. To be certain, Google your state name with "Basic Rider Course" to find additional listings that may not have been available at the time of this compilation.
If you live near a military base, some of them offer classes that may include civilian personnel and some only include military personnel. Check.
Harley-Davidson dealerships sometimes offer motorcycle courses through their own Rider’s Edge program. Check with your local Harley dealers.
Check with your state’s Motorcycle Safety Foundation site for rider safety courses. The MSF changed their links, so most were removed from this page. It’s worth a look!
