• Those who want to learn to ride safely and are able to ride a two-wheel bicycle.
• Those who fail the State riding skills test twice.

Upon successful completion of a State approved Motorcycle Safety Foundation course, the Secretary of State will waive the riding skills test required for a cycle endorsement. However, a short written test required for license endorsement will be given at the Secretary of State at the time of endorsement application. In addition to the short written test, given at the Secretary of State, a more extensive test will be given as part of the Motorcycle course. You must take the Basic Rider Course if you fail the State skills test twice or if you are under 18 years of age.

For your protection, all motorcycle classes require you to have the following protective clothing, and rain gear, if necessary!

• Long sleeve jacket or heavy shirt: Arms must be covered while riding. It is best to dress in layers according to the weather. The outermost layer must have long sleeves.
• Long pants: No shorts. We suggest jeans. Man-made materials will melt when exposed to heat from engines or exhaust pipes.
• Helmet: DOT-approved helmet.
• Eye protection: Goggles or glasses (no face shields, they make it harder to hear instructions).
• Gloves: Driving gloves are fine. Any gloves will do, as long as they fit your hand and are full-fingered.
• Boots or heavy shoes: Your ankles must be covered. A shoe or boot with a six-inch top is fine. No high heels. No high-top tennis shoes are permitted.

IMPORTANT: A signed waiver www.sc4.edu/motorcyclewaiver must be completed and submitted to the instructor the day of the class.

Classes are conducted with funds from a motorcycle grant administered by the Michigan Department of State. No refunds or changes are allowed. Walk-in registrations will be accepted if registered students are not present for the class. If walk-ins exceed class limit, instructor will conduct random drawing.
