In early 2018 Keith Hertell became an accredited United States Motorcycle Coaching Association coach specializing in Sportbikes.

 

Keith Hertell has worked with and/or trained countless number of street riders and racers since becoming and Expert Roadracer in the CMRA. If you would like some personal motorcycle training we have different levels of instruction available. Most race students have gone on to win many CMRA championships and some are racing in the AMA MotoAmerica Championship and Moto3 World Championship.

 

We have more experience than ANYONE in town when it comes to properly repairing your crashed motorcycle. Since we have been working on racing motorcycles for over 20 years we have seen just about every type of damage. We know what to look for and how to repair your motorcycle the best and cheapest possible way.

 

Keith is also available for personal suspension and bike setup at just about ANY race track in the USA. He makes trips to several AMA rounds and most CMRA rounds throughout the year. It is possible to get several racers together to share the expense of having a suspension tuner work with you at an AMA or CMRA race weekend.
