Welcome Tony! Great purchase. First suggestion, and yes I’m the party pooper here, but having 32 years of legal street riding gives me some insight into this. Please stop riding around the hood until you’ve completed the BRC. You have a high chance of picking up bad habits like that. Then you’ve got to re-learn technique. Make sure you use the z125/grom for the class. These will be closest to what you’ll be learning on in real life. Once you have the basics, there’s no reason to not practice at home. Take little trips with a destination until you’re comfortable enough to not have to think about bike control before venturing out further. That’s the key to street survival. My 21 y/o daughter took the brc last year and is just now getting enough seat time to take longer trips comfortably, and that’s with me running as a blocker. Take your time and every ride is a learning experience!
