I did one track day so far on my RSV4. It was one of the most physically intense things I've done. I was absolutely wasted at the end of the day. I actually left early because I knew I was too fatigued and didn't want to crash. And I wasn't doing anything close to what the GP riders do. It blows my mind how these guys are able to do a full race at their level.

Same, I had an R1 that had been tuned and raced at the Isle of Man TT. I'd been riding it for a year or so and took it out on a track day, after 7-8 laps I had to go back to the pits. For me it was a little bit more mental than physical, the approach speeds into a corner that you have , on a bike that can accelerate so quickly and stop so f'n fast was more than my brain could accept at the time. And that is nothing like MotoGP.

Congratulations on your first track day brother! It really is incredibly physically strenuous, more so than most people realize. I wear a heart monitor when I ride and I routinely go into the 180s during a session and have even gone as high as 200bpm.

I knew Moto GP was wild, but having a breakdown like this really hammers home that these people *are* athletes. Just since I started taking my riding more seriously last year, I've had to increase my fitness to be more effective. Before the season started this year, I was doing squats and lunges with my kid on my back in preparation. I honestly don't know any other women who can rep 10 squats with a 60lb child attached, but it means my body actually has the capability to do the things I tell it to do. Now that I'm trying out more advanced techniques, I notice the difference!

Mate, i love the car scene too and i was a huge btcc fan in the super touring era but bike racing is something else. I watch way more bike racing than car racing today. The risk these guys take keeps you on edge of seat whole race. MotoGP is probably rhe dullest variant for this and thats saying something. Watch some British superbikes if you want to see some brutal racing. Specifically as an introduction check out last seasons finale at brands hatch. The title was won by half a point and riders swapping positions all race. Its insane. So many overtakes and epic moments, you just cant beat it

Every year, in every sport from skate boards to football to motorcycle racing to BMX to every olympic sport and all the newer ones, we see human beings doing things that are more and more utterly unimaginable. Is there a limit? Are we seeing some kind of evolution occuring in a very short time? Of course the equipment gets better, but...the humans using it are simlpy doing stuff no one dreamed of 30 years ago. It is phenomenal.

Hello, couple of years after bootcamp I bought my first New bike. On one ride in the outskirts, I found a perfect, long, empty country road with a sweeping corner at the end. Long story short, after a 200kph blast and half way around the corner I realized I may not make this. A picture flashed in my head of a motorcycle race I had seen ( strange, but true) and instantly threw my leg out, and body even farther. I was young, indestructible, but that was one of those lessons you learn, but that move saved me and my Z1R from a lot of grief. Saw the video and it brought back a lot of memories.

I recently raced for the first time and used the exhale, head drop at exit to push the bike away to get that extra bit of drive for lining up a pass into T1. Of course I am nowhere near a pro rider and could probably have just pinned the throttle and come out fine but the mental comfort of the fact that the rear has a bit of a more fighting chance since its on the fatter part was worth it. Have learnt so much from your channel over the years, thank you for continuing to make great content!

Awesome video! I knew they were fit, but adding some numbers to it really helps me get a sense of how hard they are working. This is truly an extreme sport. Crazy levels of skill to ride the bike in the first place (smoothly, with the power) but it seems like the MotoGP class just cranks the forces up and up and up. I can't begin to imagine what it feels like to pop your chest up into a 320kph wind while also trying not to pull a stoppie, and also balance that against 2x your body weight going into your arms while you try to squeeze a bike with one leg. And then to somehow smoothly transition to 45+deg of lean and touch your elbow to the ground. Aliens indeed.

I’m no Rossi. I’m 36 and ride a ‘18 SV650. When I think I’m going low and looking cool in a corner, I later get home and see I’ve got nearly an inch on each side of the rear tire. It’s got sticky tires I put on, but I still can’t bring myself to extract that much performance on the street. I really wish there was a track near me. I’m not trying to low side or high side on a public road so I play it safe with lean angle. I’m not ashamed of my “chicken strips”. The extra tire is there in case of an emergency.

I have always speculated that if you can hang further off the bike, you can keep the bike more upright and on a potentially larger tire patch for better grip and stability. Putting that into practice takes a toll on the core muscles and lots of repetition to get consistent, I'm assuming.

I may be wrong on this, but their tire size is still 16.5 making the bike that much closer to the ground. Also way back in the 90s when I was over in the EU testing tires for moto2 "250cc" bikes the motogp bikes guys I talked to said on exit the rear tire never totally hooks up, ,meaning it's spinning up and sliding out of the corner. Just as the Pic you showed or Casy sliding pre apex to square off the corner. With riding aids today Im not sure if that's really thing now. If someone knows please speak up. Also their transmissions are different now when shifting it takes very little effort to go from say 2nd to 3rd etc. With riding aids they also can just,ram the corner, break as late and as hard as possible, lean the bike , then pin the throttle. In my day that would have gotten you thrown off the high side. So with all, that said , I don't think they care as much because they know the computer will take care of the exist. Frankly I would be in favor with some of the sporting regs being changed so we can see motor talented riders float to then top.

The extreme body position hanging off in the corner's helps stall the air and increase air pressure over the high side of the bike creating more down force. Combined with the updated side aero on the bikes, this is very efficient. We never really thought aero would be effective in turns to the degree it is today. Very impressive stuff.

Should add that one of the main reasons we're seeing sharper more V-shaped lines when cornering is because of V4 engines. When you look at the cornering lines of yamaha riders vs ducati riders, yamaha riders take more sweeping turns whereas ducati riders take sharper turns, due to the physics of each bikes design.

The hardest I've braked was on a Superduke not long after I'd got it. Massively overcommitted to a corner on the road and found myself closing hard on my mate on a 916 in front of me. The physics of it didn't make sense to me. My brain was telling me the front should have washed out long ago. The back may have come up a bit but I don't know; I was bricking it. I slowed down fine and the ABS didn't even feel the need to jump in but my wrists and my ringpiece were in bits. Can't imagine what these guys are going through.

finally. people always misunderstand leaning vs hanging off the bike, they think it's the same thing but it's actually opposite 1. so they can accelerate faster out of corner while keeping the bike more upright while body hang offs the bike 2. To get the bike to turn more when attacking a corner. summary, you hang off the bike more so you can lean less to turn the bike, especially good when exiting. 7:53 is an example. enea hangs so far off.
@SettledBatches

So long as your tires can tolerate that amount of lateral acceleration, have at it. The tires would require a major increase in section and weight to allow the riders to remain more upright and that's gonna hurt handling.

I think a fundamental mistake of analysis happens at 1:45. Unless I'm mistaken, the purported forces which are stated fail to factor the opposing and thus counteracting force of wind resistance upon the rider's upper body. To what degree that occurs varies, but it is a primary factor involved in order to derive the actual net forces experienced by the rider. It is still very physically and mentally demanding, but the numbers stated in this video are probably not humanly possible, if they were accurate.

I raced for years and the only time I would touch the rear brake was on exit of a corner to control wheel spin which wasn't very often. This was around the time traction control was becoming common so now there's not much use for a rear brake. Some of the pros say they use a little to rotate the bike but I think that's pretty rare. Under hard braking the rear tire has little to no weight on it.

As compared to old school riders the electronics are now controlling wheel spin, anti wheely sensors and ABS sensors where in the old days the rider had to use shifting of bodyweight forward and rearward to control those aspects and now the riders do not. Modern day riders would be sending themselves to the moon from high sides if they got on a vintage bike with no computers controlling the bike for them. The riders from before computer control days were actually much more skilled riders than the modern day riders. At one time the rider was the biggest difference in winning or not where as now the guy with the lap top in the pits is probably the most important guy on the team.

I dont 5hink todays riders are really that talented. They have all sorts of traction control, anti lock braking, etc. They dont even shit the bike any more.

Why not add a solid piece that fills the opening in the triangle the upper and lower leg make under braking/leg-dangling? An air brake that folds into the bike under power. But it would probably cut the whole leg off in a crash... nvm.

I checked a rear wheel spokes on a service. Same as everybody else in the shop. Hot it and listen for the ring. Bad idea. Guy came back with the wheel wobbling like a potatoe chip. Shop assistant foreman ripped all of us for checking that way. This happened after guy took 700 mile trip to VA. Probably doing burnouts which are bound to loosen spokes.

I'm a taller rider, and most are not tall. Moving weight to the rear for braking is HUGE being able to use the rear brake. Shorter guys cannot do this as effectively, and the bikes are not designed for this anyway. It's like a forgone secret, mostly because it's a pain for those who can't do it. The g's wear you out, but you catch'em in braking.
