What our Sponsors do for you: Bridgestone Tires

,

First of all… when we’re talking about Bridgestone Motorcycle Tires, then we’re talking about Sportbike Upgrade, Inc. is the Bridgestone race tire distributor supporting AFM Racing in Northern California and OMRRA/WMRRA in Oregon and Washington. They offer the full line of Bridgestone Battlax Racing slicks, Battlax R10 DOT Race, Supermoto and rain tires to racers and track day riders throughout the West Coast and nationwide.

Superbike-Coach has Bridgestone tires installed on all school vehicles, from the project bike to our rentals, Supermotard and trucks, and we will do an article on Coach’s Motorcycle Bible soon which explains how and why to chose the correct tire and compound.

But what they do for our students is pretty cool:

I love these guys, and whats good for me or even MotoGP… that should be good for you. Think about it!

What our Sponsors do for you: BikeMaster

,

MINOLTA DIGITAL CAMERAI am so pleased to have BikeMaster on my side. These guys really rock. I’ve never seen a company that crazy and enthusiastic about bikes- maybe this is why this relationship has been successful since 3 years now.

BikeMaster is specialized with tools and garage equipment. A pro mechanic- or a hobby technician find with them what they need for the job… way cheaper though, because BikeMaster has by far the most reliable pricing.

All Superbike-Coach school and rental bike are having BikeMaster parts on them and are well maintained with BikeMaster tools and oils. Even our transport equipment depends on them. Racing stands, tie downs, ramps… everything. In other words… BikeMaster is a huge part of the Superbike-Coach development and success.

BikeMaster was even in our ‘MotoGP Project Bike’ involved, for which we needed proper tools to get things done. But that’s not all. BikeMasters portfolio has everything what you need if you like to get things done yourself: batteries, mirrors, lights, fluids, cleaner, special tools, garage equipment, and much more- like the most sexiest race stands from aluminum I’ve ever seen.

Cornering School Day 1 on coming Sunday

,

I am looking so much forward to the Cornering School Day 1 on coming Sunday. Not just because I haven’t got my Supermotard out in a while- also because the weather forecast announces friendly 70f.

The class was sold out, but one spot became available again. This is the way to get in quick: https://www.superbike-coach.com/events/cornering-school-day-1

What our Sponsors do for you: Axo USA

,

I’d love to announce that our relationship with Axo USA goes into its 3rd year, which I believe should be a good review already… because what’s good for our coaches- is good for you!

DSCF8320 Axo’s quality/price ratio is extremely healthy and the look and feel of their suits are very good- but what I like the most with this relationship is, that Axo is donating 40% off discounts for our students !!!!

Let me put it in a nut shell to make clear what this can mean for you:

  • An Indy leather suits goes for $1000
  • And let’s say you also want some cool K4-R gloves which are $140
  • You of course need some extra protection for your back, $88

All of that goes to you for only $737, which is in savings: $491, just by being a Superbike-Coach student. Money which you could use for a better rider education, so that you hopefully never going to ruin that sweet suit.

So no matter what you are looking for… women suits, 1-piece or 2-piece suits, dirt bike gear or whatsoever in accessories… don’t forget that I’ll have that 40% off discount for ya on your total purchase! Don’t ya think that this is cheap stuff- that discount is only available as our student.

Happy 2015 :-)

First off… I’m hoping you guys had a great Christmas with your families- Happy new year btw :-)

It’s been one year ago when I announced Superbike-Coach’s new website. Hey… it happened again:
I personally love the design. It is fresh- modern- and represents Superbike-Coach pretty good. Just hoping that you like it, because that’s why we’re doing this. So let me tell you a little bit what’s under the hood of this baby:

  • Superbike-Coach ideal line definition 100% smart phone ready (responsive)
  • More quality on images
  • Improved booking system
  • Login area for booking status
  • Better schedule overviews with info system
  • Less linked-links for easier usage
  • Program pages reorganized for easier usage
  • Improved social media connectivity
  • Oh… and better looks :-)

Besides this big update on the website itself, we also come up with some interesting new stuff at the same time:

  • Supermotard 1on1- which I know you would love. You don’t have a adequate Supermoto… easy- just rent one from Superbike-Coach, and have some fun with me on Supermoto tracks, where I am using HD video and GPS data to coach you. This is good for street- track- and racers.
  • 2015 schedule- packed with Cornering School Days, Track Drills, Laguna Seca Specials, Seminars and Tours.
  • New blog sections- ‘Glossary of our Sport’, and ‘Coach’s Motorcycle Bible’- where I come up with tips & tricks around your ride… hopefully with every newsletter.

I really hope you guys enjoy the new website, which motivates to explore. I love this piece and what it stands for. Hope to see you in a class one day.

Cornering School Day 1 & 2 are burning hot!

,

I am so happy with the way i developed our ‘Cornering School Day 1 & 2’, because they are burning hot! We still have ideas popping up even improving stuff, and now since we are doing 2 days of cornering school, and our students already asking for it- we are thinking about adding a 3rd day. I’ll come up with very cool stuff, but i need to settle my thoughts on this first.

This is the 1st review of a student who participated in CSD-2 in October 26th 2014:

Coach Can tries hard to get us riders to honestly think about and evaluate our riding habits so we can more efficiently incorporate his guidance with the goal of improving our skills- Ross Shafer, Cornering School - Day 2

IMG_4206What a great class this was! No matter what you come up with… Sportbike, race bike, dual sport, touring bike… or even a Gold Wing or Harley Davidson… we have a place for everyone who want to learn cornering from A-Z from FIRST HAND. No games, but straight out and honest coaching in a fantastic place where learning meets fun!

Pictures and videos of the event are on the way… FREE of charge!

ONLY at Superbike-Coach’s Cornering School Day 1 & 2

I thank to God to be able- and love what i do.

Recap Last Knee & Wheelie Classes (Oct 11 & 12)

Topic Of The Month

Recap Last Knee & Wheelie Classes

Headcoach Can Akkaya:  Let’s recap our last Wheelie and Knee Down classes in Oct 11 & 12:

Luckily it was not that hot in Stockton as it use to be… but what was going on on our track… that was hot. Seeing my students all weekend to aim for a real goal and having me and my team working real hard to make most of them reaching these goals- that makes my classes always to an eye opening experience. I start this story out with a testimonial from Dean Lonskey:

Superbike-Coach Wheelie Course, Oct 2014 (178)           “I’ve been riding motorcycles for over 40 years (desert, motocross, street), 26 years recently on street, and I’ve always been a little nervous about doing wheelies but would still try. Taking the wheelie course helped with that and Superbike-Coach is a really good school to take. The instructors are very honest, upfront, and experienced (just one look at them in action was enough to convince me!). The 1on1 part of the class, with ear buds in your helmet listening to Headcoach Can giving instructions, is a MUST for EVERYONE! Coach Can Akkaya never pulls any punches and tells you “like it is…good and bad”. You can do something WRONG and he’ll let you know right then and there. However, just as quick as he gets on you for a mistake, he’s right there cheering you on and congratulating you when you do something correct. Anyone who takes this class will come away with something new learned or something remembered that was forgotten“.
