Experienced Rider Licensing

To get your motorcycle license in Texas, you must complete a safety course. Lone Star Bikers offers  the MSF BRC2-LW. This is approved by Texas as a license course.  

The MSF Basic Rider Course 2 - License Waiver class is a one day course with a 4 hour eCourse that is completed before class.  On your class day, you will complete several range exercises before the riding test.   If you bring a motorcycle, it must be registered and insured.  You can bring your own motorcycle OR borrow a school motorcycle for the BRC2.  You should have the basic skills to operate a motorcycle to take this class.  (Good clutch, throttle and brake control, you should be very comfortable operating a motorcycle)

 

Prerequisite: This course is for experienced riders only and each rider must pass an entry exercise. The entry exercise consists of being able to manuever cone weaves at low speed.  If you are unsuccessful on the entry exercise or don’t feel you are ready for this, then the Basic Rider Course is the one for you. This is an Intermediate Skills Course and it is assumed you have already mastered the basic skills of riding your motorcycle.
