Anyone know a good place to learn how to ride motorcycles?

i just prep my scooter and need a license to ride it.

when we were at 'brooklyn bretta' on sackett, they told us about a place where we could get lessons and a license all at the same time. i can't remember the name of the place but i'm sure you could call and ask.

i got a 500cc scooter. .

the Motorcycle Safety Foundation's Basic Rider Course is well worth the time and money. it's offered locally by the Motorcycle Safety School:

i'd like to clarify this. the NYS DMV goes by top speed of the bike, not cc's. anything that can sustain speeds above 30 mph requires a Class M motorcycle license. most 50cc scooters can do 30+ mph.

Isn't there an outfit that teaches motorcycling at Floyd Bennett Field? Would AAA know?
