In this motorcycle Motorcycle Track Day For Beginners tutorial, I will teach you how to do your first track day event. You don't need to be an experienced rider, in fact, you can get your motorcycle license and hit the race track in a few weeks of riding. Watch the entire video to learn what I mean.

This was a great video, very very useful and interesting video that I never thought about going to the track. Obviously I don’t have a bike but I’m going to go to the MSF course and a month or two later get my bike. I always for some reason thought that if you wanted to just speed like a demon that’s what track days are for but I never thought of it being for bettering your skills. You truly gave me something else to look forward and do! Keep up the great videos as I have subscribe to your channel!

Buy that bike and a month later hit the track! After 1-2 track days, you’ll be better than most people that have only been riding streets and riding like squids.

Your video popped up in my feed so I wanted to say hello! I recently started watching MotoGP after I met a guy who used to race who owns a dealership and long story short, I love watching those guys on the track now. However, you have to be very fit to pull that off, especially at the higher-skilled levels. I read how the top riders work out and follow strict nutrition and I can imagine this is a must. My fat ass who loves pizza and Cheetos won't allow me to even think about track days until I get serious about my health. Plus, I don't have the money to dive into that right now. Needless to say, I enjoy the sport and I can imagine how thrilling it would be to do it. Thanks for sharing your perspective on things. Be safe out there!

Run at 15 mph and sustain it for 20 minutes. That’s what a 20m session is like on the track. The only time you can kinda rest is during straights but on a bike like mine, straights are really short… Cheetos lol

@@PetroHead Who runs for 20 minutes? lol Heck, I get bored even walking for that long. Seriously though, I hear ya. I did a Kart race event (three races) and was sore for two weeks! I can't imagine what the track bike experience would feel like afterwards.

Overall, very good lessons. You touched on vision, but learning to look at where you want to go is the key to going smoother, predictably. It is not easy to learn. Even in a novice group, looking ahead with a wide field of vision will slow everything down. You are already in a corner, look ahead to the next one. This will tighten your exit and from this you can add speed.

Is there a specific type of insurance you need to get for track riding or is it typically included in full coverage?
@PetroHead
@PetroHead Ай бұрын
Your regular insurance should cover it since track days can be counted as education. Just ride with an instructor 👍

The Gixxer guys fault. He needed to wait for a better opportunity to pass but rushed into it like he’s on a race. There are no winners in track day events.. only losers. But hey.. now he’s famous lol 😂

I learned how to ride at 44… did my first track day a month after getting my M1 license.. now 48 I ain’t slowing down. Do what’s difficult.. give up drinking, eat healthy, get a gym membership and throw your old beliefs out the window and live a good life (on and off the track) Check out my track playlist where I blow past guys who are half my age lol (not showing off just sayin)

You cover a lot of ground in this video. You didn't leave a lot of meat on the bone but I'd like to add a couple of things. One thing is, instead of jogging switch out to riding a bicycle. It prepares your leg muscles for the onslaught that is to come with much less chance of injury. Some tracks like Barbers don't give the rider much time for resting which really works the legs and core. For new riders, leave your ego at home. Don't feel obligated to ride every single minute of every single session. You've paid for the entire day sometimes 3 days. There's more than enough time in the day to ride. My advice is to skip the session after lunch and rest. Then comeback in the afternoon with a second wind. Also, bring 3 times more drinks than you think you'll need. You have no idea how fast the moisture gets sucked right out of your body. This is especially true in places like Barbers, Jennings, and Talladega GP. For B group riders, drink 3 glasses of water to every 1 glass of sports drink or electrolyte drink. Watch your fatigue level late in the sessions, after lunch, and at the end of the day. Most crashes happen within these time frames due to rider fatigue. So if you get tired, pit in, rest up, and drink up. Hot Pit when needed......Getting stuck behind that guy who's too slow in the corners but too fast in the straights on an FZ1 can be very frustrating. This is a recipe for crashing. Ask me how I know. Instead of making a nice Rossi like pass in T9 and running wide in T10, just stick the ole leg out and pit in. It's far less painful. But instead of heading back to your pit keep going and stop at the Start/Finish line. Most track organizations have a track marshal that will give you a "Go" signal when there's a clear track gap coming. Use this time to practice your launches if you want to, and allowed. Or simply go back out and hope you get some clear track in front of you. But make sure you check with each organization as to how they handle this Hot Pit procedure. For those of you in the southern heat, bring a small round fan just for your helmet. When you come off the track place your helmet on top, visor open.
