Our
2-Day course offers a comprehensive corner-by- corner look
at the 2.54-mile Road Atlanta course to specifically detail
reference points, cornering lines and shift points on every
section of racetrack. We take an in-depth look at body
positioning, braking more effectively and building confidence
at increased lean angles. In addition to on-bike video
instruction and classroom review to enhance the student’s
learning experience, Kevin takes students on a track walk
to show you the reference points close-up. In addition
to the catered lunches, drinks and snacks provided each
day; students are also treated to a dinner of bench racing
with Kevin and the KSSS staff at Kevin’s favorite
local Mexican restaurant the evening of the first day.
The 2008 2-Day school – including a KSSS t-shirt,
Motul product package, photo CD, riding DVD, and use of
our 2007 or 2008 Suzuki GSX-R600s and SV650s – is
priced at $1,800. Students who wish to bring their own
Suzuki, $1,400.
Our
3-Day World Champion’s Package is the premium-level
Kevin Schwantz Suzuki School experience. It begins with
a Thursday evening arrival reception at Road Atlanta where
you will be greeted by Schwantz and his all-star staff
of instructors. This relaxed, casual gathering sets the
tone for three days of total immersion into the fun, comradery
and exciting learning experience of KSSS. Extensive use
of in-class video training allows students to better absorb
all that KSSS has to offer. Friday evening we will have
dinner
at Kevin’s favorite local Mexican restaurant
for a casual evening of dining and benchracing with Kevin
and his staff. After a full day of fun at Road Atlanta
on Saturday beginning with a track walk with Kevin, you
will receive a special treat in the form of the Schwantz
family BBQ. During Kevin’s Grand Prix career, the
paddock would all converge on the Schwantz motorhome to
enjoy father Jim and mother Shirley’s Texas BBQ’s
that became world famous. After you’ve slept off
Saturday evening’s feast, the third and final day
of classroom and track time lets everything come together
where students find themselves riding better than they’ve
ever ridden in their lives. Take advantage of our limited-availability
3-Day World Champion’s Package and enjoy the maximum
Schwantz experience, priced at $2,900 including use of
a 2007 or 2008 Suzuki.

Kevin
Schwantz burned brightly on the Grand Prix scene and 
now
he can enlighten your riding. He may not make you a world
champion (but then again, who knows, maybe he will) but
he certainly will pass along a lot of the skills and knowledge
that he developed over his career as a world-class rider.
Kevin instructs in the classroom and rides at every school.
The Kevin Schwantz Suzuki School is designed for riders
of virtually all ability levels. Whether you’re a
recent learner with just a year or more of riding experience
or you’re already an accomplished racer, the Kevin
Schwantz Suzuki School can teach you the skills to become
a more confident, safer and faster rider.
By limiting our class size to no more than 34 students,
the Kevin Schwantz Suzuki School isn’t the most widely
attended school in the country, but it’s part of
what makes us the best. 
Going
a step further, we split our classes into two groups. Students
learn at a pace that matches their ability and comfort
levels, both in the classroom and on the Road Atlanta road
course. It also allows our six on-track instructors (some
with famous names like Tray Batey, Lee Acree, Michael Martin
and Opie Caylor, among others) an unmatched three-to-one
student-to-instructor ratio; which insures that you get
plenty of one-on-one track instruction under the watchful
eyes of our helpful instructors. As an additional learning
incentive, we have the Michelin Most Improved Student Award,
which awards the most improved student of each class a
new set of Michelin motorcycle tires of their choice and
runner-up awards of Yoshimura team jackets, AFAM Chain
Kit, and Pit Bull race stands at most schools.
Continuing with our safety partner program, a Dainese
Wave Back Protector will be awarded
to the Dainese Safest Student at every school.
