I'm a strong believer that sharp right turns are the most dangerous. In our course, we spend a lot of time on sharp "Right" turns than any other maneuvers. The only difference is...I teach 6x6 turns, Great job as always.

I totally agree! That’s why I like to move forward and challenge myself. Definitely an exercise that could save your life. I appreciate you watching!

This is definitely a skill that ALL riders need to work on. I have found that learning to control the bike at slow speeds makes riding so much more fun. Don't fear drops....take lessons....practice....and ride safe!

Yes sir! I wish everyone would just try practicing and see how fun it is. Not to mention as you said, how much more enjoyable riding becomes!

Hey Joe great video I must say you have the most beautiful parking lot for videos😂. Those lines are crisp and the surface immaculate. I’m certain they did this just for you😂

@JoeGoeMotorcycleAdventures 3 ай бұрын

You bet they did 😂 it looks immaculate, but there are some hidden tar snakes that can make things a little slippery. All in all, it’s a pretty god parking lot!

I see many videos talking about friction zone. All of them are wet clutch bikes. Some bikes have dry clutches. Typically this means less of a friction zone and can’t tolerate high RPM or sustained slipping. I would like to see someone discuss these techniques with dry clutch bikes

This is one of the most important exercises for riders. People who’ve been riding 30 years sometimes can’t do this. I was horrified on the first group ride. I went on about six years ago. There were so many people that couldn’t make a right hand turn from a stop and we’re crossing the double solid line. Terrified me. There was one woman in front of me in particular that every time she turned right she crossed up the😮 double solid line. I had to talk with her friends that were riding with her and begged them to get her some training. After with Robert Simmons, I realized how terrible most riders really are at critical turns and U-turns.

You’re definitely right Andy! People need to practice this, your life could depend on it. I appreciate you watching brother!

Joe I have question. I was told I am uncomfortable with my street because the stock bars don't fit.me. they also hurt my wrist. He said my bars are.to low. I AM.6 FT. and I do have long arms. Is there any truth to.what he said .

@JoeGoeMotorcycleAdventures 3 ай бұрын

Hey Kenneth. There is definitely truth to that. With you being pretty tall, the stock bars are cramping you up. I’m only 5’ 9” and they are entirely too low for me. I would suggest trying some 10” or 12” bars. You’ll feel a major difference especially while turning. Hope this helps!

1,800 RPM might be OK for beginners but you should try and use only 1,100 to 1,200 for something like this. Great video, great production.

@JoeGoeMotorcycleAdventures 3 ай бұрын

I know it’s possible at those RPM’s but, if the ground isn’t perfectly level you could start lugging your engine. It all depends on the situation. I feel that 1800 isn’t too high or too low. You eventually get the feel for what you need if you’re consistently practicing (at least that happened for me). In the beginning I was at like 2200-2500 which was insanely too much! Appreciate you watching!

@user-bk8db7ud6k 3 ай бұрын

@@JoeGoeMotorcycleAdventures I have it to where I only use 1,100 to 1,200 for everything, but that is after a lot of practice. I would offer that it is OK to use high RPMs during your learning journey but after you get the technique down, you should add the goal of lowering the RPMs as much as possible. You should end up barely using any rear brake, and barely using any RPMs. I'm NOT talking about competing in cone courses where you need way more of everything to hit your times.

@JoeGoeMotorcycleAdventures 3 ай бұрын

@user-bk8db7ud6k ok I get what you’re saying now. In most situations yes absolutely. But you also need to know when to use a little more. I practice brakeless now and again to help myself not to use too much rear brake. It became a crutch and that can be a bad thing!

@Rogg33k 3 ай бұрын

Question what do you mean catching the clutch?

@JoeGoeMotorcycleAdventures 3 ай бұрын

@@Rogg33k what I’m saying is catching the bike with the clutch. So basically, you let the motorcycle start to fall. Then you release your clutch into the friction zone and that provides power to the rear wheel. This will make the motorcycle stand back up as long as you have SUFFICIENT power aka throttle. I don’t suggest trying this until you really get proficient at this exercise. Hope this helps and thanks for watching!
