Skilled Rider Course

HIGHER OCTANE  LEARNING

Give your skills a boost with our Skilled Rider Course.  Harley-Davidson® offers two unique versions of the Skilled Rider Course. The Skills Practice version will help licensed riders sharpen their skills on their own bike. The Licensed Waiver version is for experienced riders, who would like to obtain their motorcycle license. 

Tennessee uses the Motorcycle Safety Foundation curriculum, which requires use of the MSF eCourse as a component of the license waiver course. The eCourse replaces one classroom session at the dealer and can easily be completed at your convenience prior to the first night of class. You will receive the link for your eCourse two weeks prior to your course start date by email.  The eCourse can be taken on a computer, laptop, tablet or smartphone.

Be sure to budget time prior to the first day of class to complete the eCourse. This can be done in one sitting or multiple days.  Even as an experienced rider, you cannot fast forward through any sections of the eCourse. You will receive a completion certificate at the end of the course, be sure to print that out (or simply take a screenshot) and bring it to the first day of class.
