This is my first sportbike and if anyone is in SanAntonio Texas and wouldn't mind helping me out I would appriciate some help in riding skills.....
Are there any good vidios out there?
Thank's
L-man out ??:

 

I am reading twist of the wrist II by keith Code....it is outstanding...get it....this is my first sports bike as well....Take the MSF course if you have not....

I am sure there are tons of video's out there as well, I just haven't seen any that would help me....

 

L-Man, I think I would try something through the rider's schools. These are the same schools that offer the DPS Beginning Rider Schools. They also (at least in Austin) offer an advanced/experienced rider school program. The neat part of th ERS is that you use your own bike. They give you hints about bad habits you may have acquired or things you could do better with your body position, whatever. You might check it out. One of the schools here in Austin also does track days at a track out near College Station. The school is called Total Rider and the lead guy is named John Elliot. He's got an instructor that he works with at the schools named Tino and they work together at the track. Tino is the guy who did the instruction when my son Chas. went through the BRS. I've never met John but Tino is a cool guy and he drives a black Superhawk. I don't have enough miles to do the ERS but you do. Surely SA has to have these courses as I think if you offer the BRS you have to have certified instructors for the ERS.

This is the front door so you will have to web your way from here. Good Luck!

 

1. Take the MSF.
2. Practice
3. Read anything except Keith Code. His books, while very popular, are absolutely the worst written and most padded (with silly fluff) books on the subject that I've ever read. Frankly, I can't believe they are both so popular and so bad.
4. Lee Parks's Total Control is a good one. Ignore his stuff about one-handed steering. Everything else is solid.

And here's my one important piece of advice about riding: It takes about ten times longer to be a good rider than it takes to feel like one.

 

I appriciate the responses ! I think this spring I'll get with Titos group ,Texas world speedway ? Bryan >>>>>>>>>>>>
