That sucks. I've been wondering about the Kevin Schwantz school myself. He seemed to be doing so much with Ben Spies and Suzuki that I figured he was going to stop doing his school. Now that Ben has switched to Yamaha for the WSB series, it wouldn't surprise me if Schwantz stops the school to help develope upcoming Suzuki riders.
Yes, that is a Single Sided Swingarm FZR600 that I built.

Something is lurking, waiting, wanting to be built......It calls to me from the darkness....

I can finally see the light at the end of the tunnel....Then I realize that it is the train coming to run my ass over....

That's funny, Rob. I just got a call today from Kevin. He was offering his personal training to me since he has heard of my incredible skill on the track.... ha!

Come down to Atlanta and take his course. If you bring your own GSXR, you can use that instead of their bikes. Doing that also saves you about $400.

Schwantz was also consulting with Suzuki about the MotoGP bike and was trying to orgistrate Spies being riding a third GSVR for Rizla next season. Obviously that didn't work out.
