Dillon Brothers is proud to be the only Harley-Davidson®/Buell dealer in Nebraska offering both the Rider’s Edge, New Rider Course and the Skilled Rider Course. In addition, both the classroom work and on-bike riding exercises are held right here at our facility. Here is what you can expect from each course:
RIDER'S EDGE® NEW RIDER COURSE
The New Rider Course is a class designed for beginning riders who have never ridden before or for those who have not ridden in a long time. We provide everything you will need for the class (including the motorcycle) except for your own personal protective gear. Your class will take place in the course of one week. Students will meet in our classroom on Tuesday and Thursday evening before riding for the first time on Saturday morning. These two evening sessions begin at 5:30 PM and conclude at 8:30 PM. The two sessions on Saturday and Sunday both start at 8:00 AM with 4.5 to 5 hours of riding and then wrap up in the classroom after a lunch break by 5:00 PM. With just 12 students maximum per class, facilitated by two specially trained
Rider’s Edge® Instructors, our classes will provide you with more personal attention along with more riding time than other motorcycle safety courses. The tuition for the New Rider Course class is $275. We’ll mail you your materials (and homework assignment!) after you pay for your class. The first evening of your class we will also provide you with a $25 gift card to use for gear or an accessory for your bike. If you are a current H.O.G. member you are also eligible for another $50 gift certificate upon successful completion of the course.
RIDER'S EDGE® SKILLED RIDER COURSE
The Skilled Rider Course class is designed for more experienced riders and is completed using the student’s own motorcycle rather than one of Dillon Brothers’ training motorcycles. The DMV will also honor the completion card from this course for the purpose of waiving their testing. In addition, many insurance companies will offer reduced premiums if you can provide them with a copy of the card we will issue upon successful completion of the class. The Skilled Rider Course is delivered utilizing a one weekend, two-session schedule. The class is held in two afternoon sessions on both Saturday and Sunday from 2:00 PM until 6:00 PM. There is no formal classroom as the course objectives are accomplished primarily by riding your own bike. However, there will be a few strategically placed discussions during breaks to talk about ride preparation for you and your bike, risk management and strategy, traction management and the effect of impairment on operating a motorcycle. The tuition for the Skilled Rider Course class is $125. Similar to the New Rider Course above, if you are a current H.O.G. member you are eligible for a $50 gift certificate upon successful completion of the course.
