Motorcycle teachers?

[Danny O'Brien]

I'm looking for a way to learn to ride that doesn't involve Trama (which
is booked so completely that they aren't even mailing applications). Any
teachers out there?

Also, I'm looking for a 600-750 cc bike in the $1500 range, if anyone's
looking to sell.

Howdy.

[omitting "Trama" jokes]

I *think* that Trama is the only motorcycling school associated with
the MSF but I certainly could be wrong. I do *know* that Trama isn't
the only driving school which also give motorcycle lessons. Brooklyn
Driving School at 4324 18th Ave. (718-633-6000) in Brooklyn (very
close to the F train) is the driving school I used to learn to
motorcycle & I'm sure they're not your only alternative. Perhaps you
need to 'let your fingers do the walking' and check out the phone book
for your area?

Cordially,

P.S. While I was perfectly happy at Bklyn Driving School, the quality
of your instruction will vary with your instructor. And, of course,
you don't need to have a motorcycle, they will supply one.

I used the Long Island Motorcycle school in Hicksville when
Trama's was filled. Good instructor and you get one on one instruction
instead of a large class. Eric, the teacher, was big into safety and
helped a lot. They will also help with a road test, if you need it.
