NOT!! I've only offered my bike to people that have passed the course and have a LITTLE experience.. The beemer is WAAAAY to much bike for a beginners course.
Harley, on the other hand, makes GREAT beginner bikes.. low power, low speed, lots of noise so the beginner can tell if his bike is running....and if he drops it, no great loss.. He'll get to build up his leg and back muscles picking the behemoth back up, and at the MSF course there will be at least 10 other people there to help him pick it up!
In a couple of years, after he's mastered the 50 - 70 HP, 800 lb demon, he can move onto a real bike..
