kind of a bust for me with the NT700V. First, they made me sit out the
"controlling a rear wheel skid" exercise because of the linked brakes.
Then I had to sit out all of the countersteering exercises because
it's a shaft drive.

The ERC is free in PA so I plan to take it each year in the spring. I
took it on the 7th of April this year and the weather was great for
it. I had a good time and I learned some valuable lessons (mostly
that I really need to improve in a few areas). It may not be an
advanced course. But only two people got perefect scores on the
skills test in my group and I was not one of them.

I believe that if you investigated that more carefully you would find that
they can indeed wheelie ...
It ain't pretty - but then neither are the bikes .
