   There's a student in the MSF course that @glitter is currently taking who reminds me of @mori . They drive a Honda Civic CRX. :blobfox:

     I didn't do an MSF course to get my #motorcycle license. I practiced under my father's tutelage, studied on my own free time, then took the permit and license tests, all in 2020. This was mainly because I had too much anxiety after having failed the practice stuff in an MSF course I took back in 2012 or so. :blobfoxgooglycry:
     
     I learned some of the more advanced concepts taught in MSF courses when taking California Superbike (MotoGP-style track) and dirt bike courses. :blobfoxgoogly:

     I feel kind of bad for the Ninja 250 (300?) here. I get the feeling that its life is one of overly ambitious riders and pain from being dropped. :blobfoxsad: #motorcycle
     
     (I also failed that 2012 MSF course on a Ninja. :blobfoxgooglycry: )

     If the #motorcycle industry is "dying", then why are MSF courses consistently full? :blobfoxthinking:
     
     Maybe it's just Harley-Davidson that is dying, because of their new policy of milking their aging customer base for all they're worth by jacking up the prices of their obese dinosaurs. :blobfoxdisapprove:

     @tk In fact given car prices vs. economy, wouldn't motorbikes become more and more popular?

     . @glitter is using one of the provided bikes, a CSC SG250, which uses a larger (clone) version of the air-cooled Honda CG125 engine . It looks fun and easy to ride. :blobfoxthumbsup: #moto4cycle

     @tk Probably because one of those news reporters sees stuff about Harley, they think it's for all motorcycles.

     The place where I did my #motorcycle license test stopped doing motorcycle-related testing shortly after I did mine. :blobfoxgoogly:
