    Default Seeking information for training class - Houston

    Howdy Team. My wife says that she wants to learn to ride our 3 wheeler, a Can Am Spyder. She has never ridden except as a passenger on my 2 wheelers and on our 3 wheeler. I do plan to teach her a bit but I think that she could use a complete motorcycle classroom and hands on training for only riding a 3 wheeler. We would want to end up with a class that would provide a certificate honored by the Texas DMV so that she could get her license. We live close to Houston, TX.

    Any information that anyone has for us would be appreciated.

    My wife went through our local Spyder dealer in Dallas (Freedom Power Sports) to take a two wheel motorcycle course. At the end of the course, she got her certificate to go to DMV and get her Motorcycle license. I then bought her 250 Honda Shadow to get some experience on. After about one year, she wanted a bigger one. So i bought her a 2017 F3L. Now we are a two family Spyder family. I have the 2017 RTS.

    check with your dealer on training classes. BRP had some sort of promo recently thru the dealers. My woman got 50% off a $100 training class from our dealer. With the successful completion of the class she can get her motorcycle license at the DMV now.. we live in metro Omaha.

    Yep...several in the Houston area...

    Here in NJ, the 3-wheel Basic Courses are discounted to $99 (compared to $325 for standard 2-wheel Basic Rider Course) due to funding provided by BRP.

    Good luck!
