I just got my motorcycle learner's permit today. Was going to start a new thread, but this one seems to be going along quite well...

Pennsylvania offers a free beginner's course. It's 15 hours, and they provide the bike and helmet. I don't own a bike, but suspect it might be a good idea to take the course before buying one.

That being said, I'm curious if anyone is familiar with the layout of the course? It's a 15 hour course, and upon completion, students are awarded a M class license. Does anyone that is familiar with motorcycles and related training programs know, or have ideas as to, how many days the course would run?

The course seems like a great way to learn to ride a bike without investing in one, while also allowing one to get an idea of the kind of bike they would like to pursue buying when they do make that decision.
