Default Road racing school vs_____

There's a really good chance that the Harley boards are the worst place to post this...
ONLY acuz I've never read bout anything here on my topic.. Nothing more, there are great riders here.

I'm gonna go to a school when my FCL jacket gets here.

I did talk to the most likely non-racing instructional candidate. I brought up couple lil points that slightly tell me to look around some more while I have some time..

I probly I want instruction with road racing techniques emphasized over cones and cop type slow speed..

I just wanna see as many options as i can..

Have ppl here gone thru any road racing instruction and can you talk about it.
Thx

Years ago. When signing up to road race you had to have a cert from a rr school that the racing org recognized. I would recommend you take a school like the Yamaha Champions or California Superbike School, depending on your location and schedule, either is excellent. You'll love it.

Not road racing but track day training.

Learned more about riding in 1.5 hours than I did in 2 days during the MSF course. Completely changed the way I ride for the better.

Yamaha is in NJ... Pretty far from me..
Superbike school could be awesome.... Price = wow, is that a typo? Lol...

There's a place in TX... Maybe a good start?.. Idk
Over the phone, we might be a good fit...

Great start so far..

amkaos - people might be able to post better suggestions if they knew what state (or at least region) you're in
