Best bike for license test?

[HaggysR6]

Someone in my office has a hog and wants to use my R6 for his driving test for his license. I don't think the R6 would be the best bike for him to use for turning and especially with not much experience on a sportbike. I would think even a smaller bike would be better. What did you guys use if you didn't take the MSF course?

Tell him to rent a Scooter. Really, oh and he's better off on the hog than the 6.

I let one of my friends, who had a hog, use my 250cc yamaha virago (my first bike) to pass his motorcycle license road test. He was very grateful and made passing the license test a hell of alot easier for him.

Dual-sport is the best bike for this sort of thing imho.

I passed mine on a 500 suzuki early 90's dualsport. Virago 250s are very popular too

I passed mine on an 05 636, cause my r6 wasnt registered at the time but my buddy failed on it.....it depends more on your instructor/tester than the bike.....as long as you know how to ride, my friend failed for not "looking".

did mine on a buell blast. if he is a cruiser guy that might be the best bet

Ok, I'll be the stick in the mud old fart.

Do him a favor and tell him he's best off using his hog. Hell if he can't pass a MSF test on the bike he'll be riding on the street he doesn't have any business riding it on the street.

Flame away....
