re: Looking for a motorcycle safety class.

MSF is a pretty garbage course. It's only good for the insurance discount and ability to skip the practical test for your license. As for learning to ride a bike well, it's crap.

See if you have any total control courses in your area. They step up in ability and are much better for learning to ride well.

BMW also offers courses for heavier ADV bikes

If you want to learn dirt riding, look for tracks in your area and see if they offer any training camps.
