MSF Riding Tips

I actually found this booklet among the documentation which the previous two owners had saved with the Falcon (my DL1000). The outside cover of my copy is green with a copyright date of 2001, and it has a Suzuki Logo on the front. Interesting, then, that MSF uses these exact exercises for the BRC? 

That is not to knock Suzuki. Honestly, I think that any marketing campaign which attempts to ensure that new riders turn into old riders has a tinge of brilliance to it. At any rate, one may more easily hold Suzuki (and their marketing staff) in higher regard. 

The small booklet seems to transmit the following message 'Learning to ride might be easy, but learning to ride safely is going to be tough. Don't let the word spread, though.'

Because the booklet has been released in PDF form, I will probably use it make my own 'exercise plan,' using the diagrams to help describe the basic parking lot skills that [I feel] I at least should be proficient in before heading out on the streets. Can you imagine what a help a simple 8.5" x 11" cheat sheet would be, placed under the clear window of a tank bag while drilling in the high school parking lot on a Saturday Afternoon?

(Let me be clear: I am NOT advocating that anyone should practice their motorcycling skills on or near any municipal parking lot, as the municipality would likely not be able or ready to accept such staggering liability. Grocery Store lots, however... just kidding).
