Welcome to Rider’s Edge®, the Harley-Davidson Academy of Motorcycling. Whether you're a two-wheeled novice or a seasoned road veteran, we can help you take the ride of your life.
Combining the time-tested curriculum of the Motorcycle Safety Foundation® with the passion of Harley-Davidson®, the Rider's Edge® New Rider Course offers hands-on instruction and real-road experience that can teach you the skills you need to get the most out of riding.
A proven blend of classroom instruction and range riding, the Rider's Edge New Rider Course delivers the basics of motorcycle operation in Harley-Davidson® style. You’ll learn from devoted instructors certified by both the Motorcycle Safety Foundation® (MSF) and Harley-Davidson to create a relaxed, supportive environment that fosters camaraderie and confidence. And after passing a written and riding skills evaluation, you'll receive an MSF RiderCourseSM Completion Card that could exempt you from the written and/or riding portion of the motorcycle license test, as well as possibly qualify you for discounts on insurance. But more than that, you'll begin a journey that lasts a lifetime.
To take the course, you will need:
- To know how to ride a bicycle
- A valid automobile driver's license or learner's permit
- Jeans, sturdy over-the-ankle boots or shoes, full-fingered motorcycle gloves, a heavy long-sleeved shirt or jacket and protective eyewear
- A helmet that meets DOT requirements
You'll be riding the 492cc Buell® Blast®, a light easy-to-handle sportbike with a rider-friendly design that will have you feeling in control.
All Rider's Edge® New Rider Courses will be going to a 4-day schedule.
Private courses are available.
$350.00, which includes the use of a Buell® Blast®, all classroom and range materials, and $350 off a motorcycle purchase at Las Vegas Harley-Davidson, Red Rock Harley-Davidson, or Zion Harley-Davidson.
