And in 2005, Reg has added more exciting horsepower to the CLASS curriculum to pull way ahead of the pack and provide you with greater choices and better savings!

EXCITING CLASS HIGHLIGHTS FOR 2005 INCLUDE:

•A trip to Italy that will include a week of touring on motorcycles plus a day of CLASS at the famous Misano Circuit.

•Incredible new price structuring that saves you money –First Time Friends Days (save $50 when you bring a friend that’s never been to CLASS), Honda Riders Club of America (HRCA) members discounts, plus at least 6 other ways to save money on CLASS in ’05 – not just token discounts, but true deals with serious traction!

•Friends of Reg’s CLASS Experience: “FORCE 5” is a brand new club dedicated to the love of sport bikes and track riding. Members are instantly eligible for some incredible offers including first dibs on tours, great deals on Dunlop tires and even a FREE Power Commander™ (subject to availability). And that’s after they get CLASS for rock bottom pricing. Check it out at www.forceV.org

•The CLASS Safety First Challenge! Turn $50 into $100 toward a CLASS Motorcycle School in Reg Pridmore’s Safety First Challenge. From December 2004 through December 2005 if you purchase a new 2005 sport bike, Reg will offer you $50 toward any CLASS school and challenge your dealer to match his offer to total $100 off your CLASS Motorcycle School. It’s all to help teach and reinforce sport-riding safety and to hopefully save lives! See www.classrides.com for rules and eligibility.

•CLASS returns to VIR: Back by popular demand, Reg will bring the CLASS program back to VIR in July 2005.

•CLASS follows the Road America AMA National: Two CLASS sessions will be held at Elkhart Lake, Wisconsin, on June 6 and 7, following the AMA National. Come for the races and stay for 2 days of CLASS on this incredible 4 mile track!

•The CLASS Premier Exec Experience is a two-day CLASS that has all the bells and whistles. All you have to do is arrive at the hotel – we take care of all the details, including a CLASS Honda for the two days, gear, great meals and camaraderie with the CLASS Team and fellow Premier Exec riders, and first class accommodations. Dates include Oct 10/11 at Infineon Raceway (Sears Point). Hurry! This special course sells out quickly!

•Two-Up School at Streets of Willow: History was made at Streets of Willow a couple of years ago as Reg conducted the first ever Two-Up CLASS. It’s a great adventure for the riders and their passengers as they take to the track, pilot and passenger, to work on the finer points of
riding in the great learning environment of this very cool race track. October 6, 2005.

•CLASS Advanced School – For 2005, Reg has slated several advanced days including back to back days at Streets of Willow and Big Willow Springs. Another Advanced School will be held just before the AHRMA races at Mid Ohio in July.

•Bikes for rent! This year at all California CLASS Schools there will be a limited number of bikes for rent. Rent a fast and nimble Honda F4i or the sure-footed VFR800 and ride one of California’s fantastic race circuits.

•The best tracks in the country: As always, CLASS will visit the nation’s top venues, including California tracks such as Infineon Raceway, Willow Springs, Streets of Willow and Laguna Seca; as well as national tracks such as Road America, Mid Ohio, Grattan, VIR and the incredible Barber Motorsports Park.
