Awesome! Look forward to exploring this approach in motogymkhana

Pretty sure application of throttle does not always results in weight transfer to rear. Chain wants to pull tire towards front of bike which actually unloads rear spring during transition of the weight transfer until g force takes over. Not an expert. This is my understanding

Fantastic information. Just started riding at Hallet Motor Racing Circuit a couple months ago, never been on a track before that and my most difficult thing is turning into corners after heavy down hill braking. Not braking in the middle of the seat makes perfect sense. I will put this into practice next time I'm there.

Is there another reason everyone goes body before brakes? I haven't rode track but I find clinging with my legs during hard braking takes the entire stopping load off of my arms. So I wonder if there's another reason such as it being a bad idea to move your body _while_ braking/turning because it's probably better to maintain one position throughout to stay in control.

My Mk3 Seeley frame has 27 degrees of rake and 106mm of trail and has 18 inch wheels. I can fly up to any corner flick it in and accelerate full bore all the way around the corner. That is very hard to beat. I ride the bike without thinking. Most slow riders probably blame themselves for being slow. Bikes which are light in the front and understeer create slower riders.
@alancotterell92072 ай бұрын
When you road-race a motorcycle, never believe. The rider adjusts to the bike. All motorcycles tend take on the own natural angle of lean. Adjusting the trail on the steering can create the situation where you can fly up to corners, flick the bike in, and accelerate hard from the beginning of the corner and all the way around it. The rider probably does not so often recognise their motorcycle has that capability. It is achieved through oversteer and less lean. If you need to countersteer to tip into corners, your bike is understeering. Pro-riders are bullshit - their motorcycles handle differently.

A 1/6 or 1/8 turn throttle is the solution

The biggest change I found going from my EX500 to Ducati 748, R6 and BMW S1000 is that the BMW will wheelie. Could be TC working but I don’t feel yet that traction is the issue. Riding 4 different bikes might also make it harder to optimize my lines for each one.

@amisfitpuivk2 ай бұрын
Not sure if he's wrong though, it's just missing details because it's a short. It is confusing because he didn't talk about what factors initiate the high side, just the forces that launch the bike. Obviously, momentarily spinning/ skidding the rear tire is one way. Counter steering _while_ adding speed is another and might be the one he's talking about?

Just be careful of ‘information overload.’ Ask 10 people how to take turn 1 (at the same track), you get 12 - 13 different answers. Every time you try something new. Do it in moderation.

When/how do we do this steering travel test? While the bike is on the rear stand, or when we're leaning in a corner out on track? It's unclear.
@mglax1329 күн бұрын
Well think about this....if you're mid corner, leaned over, do you think it would be a good idea to turn the handlebars side to side, full lock?
@kylemayer19564 ай бұрын
When you say the key is to see it as early as possible, what do you mean by "it"? Overall I find your how to videos confusing. I need to watch them multiple times in order to put together and understand what exactly you're talking about. For example, when you talk about reference points, I don't understand what that actually looks like out on track. Are you talking about a reference point at which to start braking? Are you talking about making a curve in your vision/mind between entry, apex, and exit reference points? What should those reference points be? Is my momentary position in the corner a reference point?

Hey man, I just want to thank you for sharing your knowledge with people that love motorcycles. This is probably one of my favorite videos and if people watch the whole thing it makes so much sense ..especially 0:10 the 400 compared to 600 to 1000 EXIT..I can’t wait to apply this at my next Trackday.. As I keep getting faster in the A group, your videos are a constant reminder to go out there with a Plan.. Thanks again, bro, bro.!!

I always listen to your videos on the way to the track. What you said about muscle memory, saving your life very well have safe mine a few months ago. It was a head-on motorcycle collision about 15 feet in front of me on the tail of the dragon chaos everywhere. I don’t even remember braking next thing I knew I was sadly stopped no panic brakes, and what you said came true. I really value these videos and they’ve helped me a lot on the track. Thank you very much.

@Slippyshortz895 ай бұрын
Theres other video on here saying that when you accelerate on the side of tyre the chain pulling the front sprocket force lifts the seat and actually weight the front end . Look at a dyno when a bike accelerates the front forks compress. This is why if you open the gas leaned in a corner the front of the bike comes in tighter as your getting traction on the front end. Not sure this is correct

I am a little bit of a noob myself while trying to start my Moto vlogging career, so I'm not trying to be one of those guys, but when you were demonstrating 1-5% throttle, that looks like a lot in comparison to my '05 katana. I was just wondering if the throttle travel on your bike is a lot greater or if you meant closer to 5-15%? I am genuinely curious as I have only rode 4 different motorcycles in my life, none of which were ride by wire

I typically do this as I turn in - all in one motion. Of course every corner is different for specific applications but as a general rule I release throttle and apply brakes all in one motion
