[QUOTE="bcutler23693, post: 1331254, member: 88649"] Oh, I forgot to mention something else positive about this school. Most motorcycle racing schools require that you perform the following modifications to your bike prior to being allowed on the track: [LIST][*]Bikes must have oil fill cap, oil drain plug, and oil filter safety wired [*]Liquid cooled bikes must run water only or racing approved coolant only, no anti-freeze [*]Remove mirrors, tape over all glass and lights AND tape over the speedometer [*]Side stand must be secured in the up position using safety wire or zip ties [/LIST] The only thing California SuperBike School requires is 90% tread and that your bike be in good working order. At the beginning of each day, you run your bike through "tech" (their mechanics) and they inspect your bike, check your tire pressures (lower them for the track), ensure that all of the controls work, etc. They also ask that you tape up your speedometer and mirrors so that you don't become distracted by them.
