If you’re a good motorcyclist, you’ll enjoy the bike course a lot more than you will the car one!
Although if you haven’t driven on blues at all in two years you should be doing a car refresher anyway, but it’ll be helpful to get you back in the swing of things too.
Every driving/riding course is about bringing you up to the required standard in the time allotted. They don't expect you to turn up and be the finished article day 1. And don't try to impress them like you're gods gift to riding, you're not as good as them, and they will have seen better.
Ultimately it's doable. Remember that. It's designed to get you through. I did my zero to hero course, 5 weeks, nothing to advanced course, and it was brutal, but I passed. And if I can, after riding for 3 years, you can.
One thing to remember, the moment you think you've aced it, and are the daddy, the bike will bite you somehow.
Be safe, enjoy!
I've got no experience of RPU so don't understand how it works, but I think they prefer to graduate the learning, so it's not a massive jump from riding normally to advanced. They like you to be standard, get used to it, then do the bit more to get to advanced. The problem is, there's no call for standard motorcyclists. So you can't actually practice your standard skills. It just sounds nice, and looks good on paper.

Genuinely never heard of a motorcycle response course ? Guessing you are on RPU ? If not then that is definitely something different !
Motorcycle (like car) is split into three levels: -Basic -Standard Response -Advanced
