Champions Trained
The Superbike School has enrolled some well-known students over the years…
Wayne Rainey
1990/1991/1992 500cc World Champion
“My first time on the asphalt – for more than a couple of laps – was at the California Superbike School. It was a really good experience. I wasn’t the fastest guy out there but it gave me the idea of what to do and, more importantly, that I did want to do it. Kawasaki had been helping me with my short track program. There are some great people down there who believed I had some promise, so they gave me a box stock racer and hired Keith Code to work with me for one year.
Here is the part that really surprised me: We spent days going over stuff that Keith had written down about racing. I thought we were going straight to the track, but here I was actually looking up words in the dictionary and talking about riding. After we did get to the track the whole thing turned around and there I was, writing down everything that I was doing on the track. Keith made me think before we got to the track, while I was on the track, and after I got off the bike.
I don’t know if everyone can get into the winner’s circle as fast as I did, but I know now that being able to think about your riding is important. Get that part done first.
This is where I started. I hope it works for you.”

“The way techniques are broken down and made simple for you to understand and then try out on track makes you really understand what riding a motorcycle is all about… it has taken me to another level.” |
