So Mark, I got the coat, the helmet, the gloves, the boots, the bike, and about 60,000 miles of riding experience, and I need to learn how to ride this monster better, I know I'm leaving a ton of performance on the table. Do you have a suggestion for an advanced driver training class? I'm not so sure I want to do anything at a race track, but I think some one on one with an instructor would be a good thing. Any thoughts or suggestions on a class?

Unfortunately, I am not much help on this subject.
There are two programs that interest me, but both are out of state.

$350 did not seem pricey to me
What cost range were you thinking?
