Five Brissie members did the equivalent Toprider Braking & cornering course early this year see the report here ...

Best bike related money I've spent in years.
Cheers Brett
Has anyone here gone to Superbike school?

I did a Level 3 with the Godfather himself, Keith Code the day after that dirty great hailstorm hit Sydney, and judging by the amount of people yawning their heads off I was’nt the only one up until the early hours putting a tarp over a mates roof.
The riding bit was great but the classroom sessions were sheer torture and I just wanted to curl up and fall asleep.
At one point, I can remember him stopping talking and I think I was just about to drift off and I’m rudely awoken by a “ Are you OK Man!!!”, it was rather embarrassing , though my fellow pupils seemed to understand,the Godfather did’nt,I exlplained my plight to him and he just looked blank faced at me and said,
“What hailstorm?”
Get an early night, you'll learn alot more

Hahahaha, great story 
Judging by Keith's video, he doesn't seem like he'd be quite as engaging as Steve Brougy in the theory stuff.
I think most people already know most the theory anyway, but it's still good having someone tell you "THIS is how it is, and THIS is what you need to do on the track in 5 minutes", then the instructors tell you "YES you did THAT" or "NO you didn't do THAT, THIS is why".
So everything's nicely layed out for you to learn.

I was talking to a guy @ Darlington Park back in March this year & he had done both the Superbike School & the Top rider course & he reckoned that the Top Rider course was heaps more better for him.
It wasn't that Superbike School wasn't good, it's just Bernie was better.
He was riding in the fast class on a slightly modded CBR1000, & he wasn't a beginner rider.
