Why Sport Bikes are targeted
• 8.2% of licensed DONdrivers ride a motorcycle
• They are responsible for50% of the Fatalities each
year
• Sport bikes are in 88% ofthose Fatalities !

MSRC Timeline
• November 07 – NSC studied Sport bike fatalities and determined specific training was necessary – MSF agreed to work with the NSC to develop a Sport Bike Rider Course (SBRC)
• December 07 – Industry was reluctant to support the training, afraid it would villainies the sport bike – NHTSA did not support the “theory” that sport bikes were the problem
• January 08 – MSF renamed the SBRC, the Military Sportbike Rider Course to fend off concerns
from Industry and NHTSA• May 08
– MSRC is rolled out to the Navy and Marine Corps
• June 08 – OPNAVINST 5100.12H CH-1 rolled out to mandate the MSRC
• October 08
– CFPS is contracted to provide Traffic training including the MSRC• November 08 – US Army begins using the MSRC
• March 08 – US Air force begins using the MSRC
• April 09 – MSF will be rolling the MSRC out to the public

(MSRC)
1 - Day course for Sport bikes of all sizes
3 - Hours of classroom training focused on Risk Management andunderstanding personal skill levels compared to the performance ofthe machine.
5 – Hours of Range exercises with higher speeds, more control
required and additional “bike bonding” skills

Sport Bike Characteristics
• Speed can easily exceed 140MPH and HP over 180
• 1/3 the weight of a standardbike
• High CG makes them verynimble (and unstable)
• Torque and high RPM givesthem unmatched acceleration
• Aerodynamic design, including
rider position• Tire traction and ground
clearance allows for leaning inturns at over 60 degrees

Standard Bike Performance
• Designed to cruise at speedfor long distances
• HP generally produces “pullingpower” not acceleration or speed
• Very heavy for a smooth ride• Low CG makes them very
stable• Powerful engines for effortless
cruising and acceleration
• Laidback, comfortable ridingposition• Tire Traction designed for
smooth stable ride.• Minimal ground clearance, low
ride improves stability

600cc Sport Bike Performance
• Vehicle is “performance light” at
under 400 lb• At 90 HP, the acceleration and
speed are TEMPTING to test,even for riders with goodjudgment
• With PROPERLY adjustedsuspension, the bikes are agileand fast
• Originally designed for the track,most Sport-bikes are ridden byUNDER-SKILLED riders with
youthful abandon and too often,fatal consequences
• These are considered entry levelbikes even though they provideHP equivalent to the 1800cc
motorcycles!

600 cc Sport Bikes
are prevelant in Fatalities
•Bikes are affordable
•Insurance is affordable•Vehicles are mistakenlyconsidered “entry level bikes”
•Power and handlingcharacteristics are significant.

Take Aways
•Training works if it is:
•Provided at the appropriate Time
•Of Adequate Quality
•Beneficial to the Participants
• Leadership must stay engaged.
• Peer Pressure and rider “buy-in” is necessary
•Mentorship is one way to do that
• Poor rider judgment in any vehicle need continuedattention
Only a Team effort
will help reduce Fatalities
