I think the test was like no more than 10 dollars and like 2 dollars to take it again. The class through TNCC was 125. A lot of schools raised the prices in September. If you take the class at tncc you do not have to take any test at all written or driving. You just bring the card they give you to DMV and your reguar driving license and they will take a new pic of you and give you a new driver license with the m on it! I also recommend hanging around some bikers. Let them show you the basics, like where everything is located, how to start the bike, operate the horn and blinkers! But advice on how to ride get that from the school! Dont try to ride anyones bike unless you have money to pay for damages! You are also welcome to come up to our shop and hang out. We are very helpful and fun up there! I got geico insurance and it was easy and cheap.
wow. very informative.
i'm def looking for some people to ride with (because it seems to me that i cant see a bike w/out seeing 5 bikes. haha)
and no, i dont plan on even touching anyones bikes at all. i might be new to the bike scene but i've been around the car scene for awhile and i have respect for peoples property. ya know?
and the class at TNCC would probably be the one i'd want to take just to avoid testing at 2 different locations.
but i'll probably go and get a copy of the book for the permit test, read and study it, take the permit test (just for some knowledge) then go take the TNCC class.
i just wish they'd post their 2008 schedules.
and i appreciate the invite, i'll def be stopping by at your shop to get some advice, prices on gear (if you sell it), etc...

thanks
