Took this course last week while I still had the CB1000R
A great course! I got the opportunity to do it for free, but I would say it is well worth the money if the course is available to you. I would have been stuck riding the same for years, not improving at all if it wasn't for this course.
Went and did level 1 & 2 as well as the suspension clinic.
Some stuff they teach was simple but difficult to practice, like trail braking. It was really difficult for me to do it with the front brake, but by the end of the day I had it down and I love doing it now.
Still need to work on the speed up/down shifts and plenty more stuff.
Really it was just about improving your skill, but more being able to recognize what you are doing wrong and being able to fix it or work on it.
They also almost preached to not get down on yourself when making mistakes, AND to not take all the credit when you do good, because it's really the bike doing all the work, your just letting it do it's thing.
Here are some pics, wasn't on a track so we were just going around cones.
