Yes. The techniques and skills we practice in our off-road training can be applied to any motorcycle. However, we do require that your motorcycle be street legal, and have the capacity to drive 100 miles between fuel stops. We will be riding on public roads to get to different locations. We also request that your motorcycle be equipped for off-road riding.
