Hey Greg. All of these tips helped me overcome the anxiety of downhill corning to the right. Especially blind corners, which had me slowing way too much. Delay turn in, look as far ahead as possible and let the corner come to me…now it’s a blast, thanks!! 👍👍

[@MotoJitsu]

nice!

Hello Greg, greetings from Athens, Greece. I ride for a little more than one year with a 300cc bike. You 've learned me almost anything I know about motorcycle riding. You 've opened a whole new world. I' ve read total control, participated in riding schools, try to practice as often as I can with motojitsu exercises and I see that my riding level and knowledge is actually better than people that ride for years. Most important, I know what i should be aware of and how many (MANY) things I need to improve and learn. Thanks for everything!

[@MotoJitsu]

awesome to hear it!!

[@chrislaws4785]

As a new on road rider (I've rode dirt bikes, 3-wheelers and 4-wheelers off road nearly my whole life) I have learned SO MUCH from this channel as well as Dandanthefireman and even FortNine. So when I'm riding or going around a curve, I will look out as far as I can see to check there is nothing out there I need to worry about and to look for my line, but mostly I'm looking at least 3 car lengths or so in front of me while every once in a while checking closer in front of me just to double check there's nothing in the road I might have missed. I'm doing this at the same time that my eyes are scanning from side to side checking for any side roads or driveways where cars may be coming out of and looking for that dangerous silhouette of the side of a vehicle that would make me have to pay closer attention to it in case I need to slow down/stop, swerve or change my path of travel. I also check left, right then left again when going through an intersection and I treat blind hills as if they were intersections as well since they block your line of sight and so I'll slow down some and cover my breaks, maybe even take up the slack on the break lever until I am able to see over the hill and can see that it's clear. It's definitely a LOT of mental and visual gymnastics, but it IS getting easier to do as I am building up good habits and muscle memory. I'm always trying to pay attention to what's going on around me and NOT just straight in front of my forks.

[@adrienserigny6702]

I took my MSF this weekend and locked up the front tire on a straight into a 180⁰ curve, made a beautiful recovery at 25mph. Made the curve and was less aggressive on braking and then trusted the bikes capabilities the rest of the day. Passed all testing later in the day. Funny thing about this whole class was the fact that I was the slowest to get steady on straights for day 1 but ended up being class leader for all exercises by the end of the day and all of day 2. Money well spent for never having ridden a powered bike, I'm definitely going to go back after I feel confident to take the next level of training classes.

[@wrnevils]

I love how your eyes really do what your saying and look through the corner instead of just talking and looking at the camera. You’re really visualizing what you’re talking about and showing us what we’re supposed to be looking at and finding out target and exit points! Thanks

[@_Laudegg_]

Danke!

[@Tenksen]

I was on a training course on a track and maintenance throttle was not really explained. They did mention rolling off throttle for lean but not maintenance. I was on third session so I was getting cocky. went into a corner too fast for my comfort level so I just rolled off throttle leant over more, I stayed off the throttle because I didnt understand maintenance throttle. low sided my brand new r6 :-) P.S I have only recently found your videos, the way you explain everything is brilliant. I'm a better and more importantly a safer rider. Thanks

[@Goldadon]

Amazing how you keep making fresh content while you have already covered so many things! I had a course last weekend wich had mid corner stops, 90 mph emergency stops and just straight on track riding. I had an amazing basic level due to your video's and training i did because of it! During this course I finally practiced using the front brake more and got really comfortable trailbraking. Thanks!

Interesting what was "instinct" during my 20s, after a life since 5th grade of dirt bikes, 3-wheelers, and 4 wheelers, and riding on the road was natural..Fast forward 15 years of not riding, and I way slow down on corners and forgot my "instinct". Thank you for providing all the vids you do. I am definitely more concerned about gear before and learning what I thought wouldn't go away...

Hi Fast Eddie,I took delivery on my 2020 Fat Boy 114 yesterday, today was my maiden voyage. Back in January I became a Pre-Loader with the cop, Robert Simmons, “Trust & Believe.” Then in June I found you with a full head of hair, now I am snooping around your Master Classes. I got through chapter four in “Total Control 2nd Edition,” more videos on turning and being the Boss of my Friction Zone and Front Break. Then I got your app for my Note 9 and my iPad Pro. Phenomenal app! I put on my SS Helmet, (SS stands for Sub Surface Warfare), gloves, Sedici jacket, and touring pants. I looked straight, bars straight, found the friction zone, covered my foot break and lifted my left foot as I rolled down my driveway over the trench to a right turn. My neighbor, a rider, saw me do 5 donuts to the left then 5 to the right and leaning into the four turns on our circle/court, then I took off down the road. She said, “Your ready for Bike Week! Are you sure this is your first time?” Down shifted and duck walked my first U-ie, 😂 On the fifth U-ie I wasn’t able to stay on the road even in lock, but I locked the fork through the turn on the grass. A garbage truck was approaching, I forced myself not to look as they cheered me on. On my fourth jaunt off my court, down the road I kept my feet on the boards, road the grass and jetted back to my house…all on my FIRST BIKE! I’m scheduled for the Harley Academy in two weeks. Now I’m going to earn my White Belt. Thank you for all you do and the top shelf instruction you give. ET1(SS/SW/MTS) USN, Ret.

[@AZ-wc5ot]

Those are honestly excellent tips, but im gonna be honest with my idiocy here and say that one tip that just changed the world for me was that the bike will stay leaned over after the countersteering input. That just for some reason made me a whole lot confident and let me narrow down what i have to do after tipping in, now i can actually focus on cornering and throttle control

[@Dutchguy74]

I actiually learned something form a physics paper about countersteering the other day, and that is you are ALWAYS counter steering, even when you do not have your hands on the steering wheel at all, even then through motions of your body, you countersteer, if you wanna turn right, the motion of your body first turns the steering wheel to the left a little and then to the right, you are always countersteering even if you do not touch the steering wheel at all, because that is the only way to initiate a lean.

[@luciamurillo7258]

I know when I first started riding they were intimidating.

[@Astrix_Jaeger]

@@MotoJitsu Yes sir

[@Speedtwin22]

Thanks new rider and this really helps just trying to join the dots! Thinking Its a speed problem but after watching u its braking about me getting comfortable with braking!!

[@JamesLamb]

Because I haven't taken advanced classes, the concept of "maintenance throttle" in a corner is new to me. It makes sense, but it's one of those split-second judgement or finesse issues that you know when it's right, it feels so fine and smooth, but because of road variability, unless you're frequently on the same road, it may be difficult to get exactly right every curve on an unfamiliar road.

[@wolfburgman]

Cornering has always been a mixture of enjoyment, fear and frustration for me. But this video has at least given me greater understanding of my weaknesses. Hopefully now I can improve. I'm 62 years old now. Can I still improve or will fear take over. I really don't know but here's hoping

[@garymaclean6903]

I went from a 1974 Ducati 750-GT to a 2002 BMW R-1150-RS.They ride much differently. The Ducati could corner by simply leaning as I entered and then adjust my line by steering. The BMW wanted to hold it's line more, and needed more counter-steering to get into and out of the corner.

[@mariosnavas]

simple saying with meaning...just what it matters! thank you!

[@stephanddd]

Great tips. I would suggest one more possible reason for overslowing: going in to the corner at a gear lower than you should/could. You might be able stay in 4 gear, trail brake a bit, and accelerate out of a corner smoothly. If you go into the corner in 3rd gear instead, now you're having to deal with unnecessary engine braking, and having to get into maintenance throttle earlier, and revving up your engine into high rpms to exit the corner. It feels like a lot of unnecessary drama.

[@TheUnsungVil]

6:12 - “… I have to downshift because they overslowed”… Laughs in 1000cc, going 20mph in 6th gear and still no stall 😎 Excellent video Greg! It should be in the mandatory curriculum of the basic rider’s classes in order to get the license!

[@danielloftus9875]

I had a huge distraction once on a curvy road. (someone passed me on a one lane road) I looked at him and just about went straight off the road. I whipped my head to the right and my bike followed. SAFE!! Because I instinctively did what I had practiced over and over and over

[@MotoJitsu]

[@kevinfergerson7169]

[@SoundmanCH]

I think confidence with the brakes is key. I ride a lot in the Swiss alps, really high up, with huge drops that sometimes are quite scary. I add an extra safety margin in terms of speed there. Riding these types of roads helped me overcome anxiety, building up trust in my bike‘s brakes. But honestly, I still have both, good and bad days. On bad days good cornering just does not work out for me, so I just go slow and easy. There is never enough practice, as you rightfully keep teaching.

Hi very good content to boost confidence, I’ve been riding for about 45 years and in the 70s you had to learn yourself as no Internet, except now you can get to much advice so can get confusing for any rider. If I was starting out again I would have definitely entered more track days mainly to safely understand the limitations of the bike and understand how important suspension settings are. I’ve had some very fast bikes in my time ( fireblade, hayabusa, milli r, ) to name a few, but at 64 I’ve come to realise it’s not all about pinning the throttle back between bends, it’s about control and consistency.To fast into a bend can slow your exit, but even I still admit to making mistakes even on roads I do every weekend. ( maybe old age )

[@trevorb2048]

I'll tell you why I'm over-slowing going into tight corners… because earlier this summer I had a near accident that has since terrified me. I was coming in to a tight left-hander (15 mph marked) blind uphill turn. I thought I had my body and lane positioning alright and was looking through the turn for my exit. Right around the apex, however, I started to drag my inside peg, hard. So hard, in fact, that the rear tire began to leverage out and I started to lose traction and nearly lowsided, or at least felt like I was about to. I instinctively corrected, but when the rear tire caught it stood me up abruptly, of course, and nearly high-sided me. The front end wiggled and I shot across the turn into the oncoming lane and nearly into a 40 ft. gulch. Luckily, there was no oncoming traffic and I was able to stay on the bike and get it stopped just before the pavement ended and the gravel began about three feet before the drop off. Though it technically wasn't an accident, I count it as one because if just one or two factors had been different, it could have been real bad. In fact, I could be dead. So, like I said, it terrified me. I finished my ride, of course, and have since been trying to figure out what went wrong, but have been much more apprehensive. I've been back over that same turn many times since and have come to feel that the combination of the cambered uphill turn and less than ideal body positioning on the bike requiring too much lean caught my foot peg. I have tried to correct w better body positioning and even more delayed apexing, but it has really affected me mentally and now when I go in to any relatively tight left-hander I get nervous and tight. And left-handers used to be my favorites! I've tried correcting my body position on the bike so I don't have to lean over so much in turns, like I said, but I've read conflicting info about that as well. But I really don't like how it has affected me mentally. Thoughts? Thanks in advance!

[@boomertech1928]

Fear is what holds us back, keith code calls it survival reactions, but the only solution is to gradually push back the onset of them by practising cornering in a safe place, ie a car park/ parking lot like in Greggs other videos. Also do some schools or track days if you can.

[@MotoJitsu]

Sheesh if your footpegs are dragging that hard your body position was the wrong way...probably counter balancing. Take more formal high level training and find someone who really knows what they're doing so you can do a lot of lead follow stuff in the twisties.

[@trevorb2048]

@@MotoJitsu Yeah, I'd love to do more high level training, but there's just so little around where I live (Vermont). I've done pretty much everything that is available in my area, but I guess I'll have to travel a little farther next year. Thanks again. Appreciate the feedback!

Love your stuff, the looking through corners has been key for me. Do you have anything specific to someone riding an automatic?

[@alanbrown5593]

Novel thought, use the race line on a racetrack; try using the corner limit point to help identify if your speed is appropriate for that bend. Too many people ride on dipped headlights rather than main beam for vision ahead.

[@MotoJitsu]

whatever works for you

[@alanbrown5593]

@@MotoJitsu If, the limit point is moving towards you slow down (or even god forbid brake) if it is moving away from you increase speed. If it is static, in relation to you, then your speed is correct for that bend. However always plan for the furthest point you can see, not the first bend but the last one.

[@MotoJitsu]

None of that makes sense...you don't just brake because of those situations or increase speed...it sounds like you're quoting bumper stickers of things that been said for a long time that are highly inaccurate. I highly suggest signing up for ChampU. The online courses by Yamaha Champions Riding School instructors who are professional racers who also ride on the street.

[@alanbrown5593]

@@MotoJitsu Bit difficult as I'm in the UK. There are occasions when people go far to fast into bends, especially experienced riders who believe that braking is some kind of failure. Everyone makes mistakes or misjudges occasionally. If, you are in the right gear, speed and correct position then you will get round the corner safely. If the limit point is moving away from you, then you can increase speed (or chase the limit point). The challenge is making sure it doesn't tighten up, but that comes down to forward planning.

Out of all 22 courses I've been through (20 of them being higher level courses above the basic training), not one of them ever mentioned limit point and to me it's more confusing than anything and isn't a technique to learn nor does it make any sense to me. but do as you will.
