The MSF course is great for new riders. If you have the opportunity, some track-day organizations offer 'advanced rider training' courses - the best way to increase your skillset quickly, IMO. Invest in good protective gear (leathers, brain bucket).

I got myself a johnny rocket jacket with a bunch of armor some johnny rocket gloves and a Scorpion Exo-500 in terms of a helmet. I'm real amped to take the MSF course and the advanced rider training on the track sounds fricken awesome I'll definitely be looking into that.The MSF course is great for new riders.

I do have my permit but given that the MSF course was included in the purchase of my bike I was planning on simply getting my endorsement/license through the completion of the courseCheck YouTube for some MSF videos there are some very useful ones which detail the actual requirements.
Question. Do you have an endorsement yet?
Thanks for the tip! to clarify when you say "target fixate" does that mean they look at the guardrail and as a result thats the direction they inadvertently drive and as a result hit it? Would this apply to a car in front of me? would I WANT to fixate on the car in front of me in order to stay on the right path or is that more likely to lead me into hitting the car or other trouble?Get some good gear...Dress for a fall off your Bike, not the ride, and look where you want to Go, new riders, and experienced ones as well, tend to "Target Fixate" and ride right into the guard rail.
