Motorcycle Simulator Courses: Optional for motorcycle operators or individuals
contemplating becoming a motorcycle operator - HIGHLY recommended
Simulation
has the unique ability to allow students to repeat tasks without the risk of
negative consequences degrading the learning environment. Students learn from
repetition of tasks and can meet increasingly closer tolerances without error.
Motorcyclists
are exposed to a safe training environment that allows practicing of
“real-world” speeds in a visual, auditory, and kinesthetic learning-space to
develop critical motor-skills and tasks. More importantly, the ability to
review in a 3-dimensional learning-space affords the instructor and student the
opportunity to view and discuss performance, technique, success, and
errors.
An
orientation period will be required for students to acclimate to the simulator.
The purpose of the simulator is to practice techniques and procedures. It
does not have the capability to be, nor is it intended to be, a 100% accurate
model of a motorcycle. A stationary simulator cannot encompass all of the
physics required in riding on two wheels. It DOES allow students to practice
the techniques that are required to be a safe and proficient rider.
