| There is just one thing that makes a bike "too fast for the road" twisting the throttle too far round!
CSS training or call it what you will has an element of observation, looking ahead, where you are going that is just as usefull on the road as it is on track IMHO.
The vast majority of non two wheeled road users don't have to worry too much about their Skills or lack of them. The vehicle they are travelling in is festooned with safety features that bail 'em out when it all goes wrong. A motorcyle doeen't enjoy such a safety net.
The most valuable skill for a road motorcyclist is to avoid puitting yourself in situations where other road users can do you some damage. Some might say that means not riding on the road at all!. It's always a judgement call and anticipation is the name of the game. Advance riding seems to put a big emphasis on this?
Speed only makes the consequences of a mistake more severe.
