Reddit reviews Total Control: High Performance Street Riding Techniques, 2nd Edition

Yo he tomado básico e intermedio con cemovial y los puedo recomendar ampliamente. Abarcan bastantes temas incluyendo frenado, curveo, countersteer, manejo en tierra, etc.

Si quieres algo más deportivo puedes probar con el equipo de Italika racing GDL. Yo tomé curso con Italika racing del DF y la neta si hubo un antes y después en mi manejo.

Tengo entendido que en agencias de BMW también dan cursos, puedes checar con los de Jurgen. Con ellos nunca he ido.

Ánimo y rueda seguro.

Practice using the clutch on your buddy's ATV absolutely as much as he'll let you. Operating a clutch on a bike is probably the single most difficult thing to get a handle on because you're worried about falling over at the same time. :) If you can go into the class with a solid grasp on finding the friction zone and manipulating the clutch lever and throttle, you'll be way ahead and able to concentrate more fully on the actual riding part.

Ignore the idiots who are telling you that no studying is required. You are making an extra effort to educate yourself. That's always good.

Good luck. We look forward to hearing that you passed the class and have taken your first ride. :)

The second edition of Total Control has a chapter on fitness from a personal trainer who rides. Of course, there's also chapters on riding and bike setup.

I'm going to recommend something a little unconventional around here: an actual paper book.

https://www.amazon.com/dp/0760313318/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_awdb_6wgwybXHCREVS

I bought this sort of on a whim when I started riding and was in the same position as you, and it was unbelievably informative and interesting to read. Its slightly out of date in that it precedes the advent of common electronic aides, but 100% of the stuff in the book is useful.

Also, while I'm recommending books for new riders, Lee Park's "Total Control" (https://www.amazon.com/dp/0760343446/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_awdb_Mxgwyb3MVM3CF) is an absolutely brilliant book. Its specifically about street riding (as opposed to track) and is targed towards newish riders. This book basically singlehandedly changed me from a hesitating novice to a confident (though a little reckless, it taught me to ride well but doesn't teach thoughtfulness the way Keith Code does) rider.

And, of course, the great grand daddy of them all, Twist of the Wrist 2 (https://www.amazon.com/dp/0965045021/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_awdb_aygwyb1BB573F). This book is so good and so dense that I still find new things to practice every page or two. The definitive riding technique book for good reason. No, you don't need to read part 1.

I also recommend Lee Parks https://www.amazon.com/Total-Control-Performance-Street-Techniques/dp/0760343446/ref=pd_lpo_sbs_14_t_0?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1&refRID=A7E8P6M1AASS98SBBC5B
