[@michaelwhitehead1373]

Hey dude, u r super in your explanation. I had a bike as a teen, then 650 later in 30s, now in 60s .... bought that dyna. First thing I started was practicing the counter steering. You are right, know what you are doing, ..... I've always been a pusher vs puller. You make me feel better about me instinctively practicing my technique, ... thought I was ...... something else. God's speed as you speak into others lives keeping them alive. That thing about acceleration out of curve will be my next, and outside/inside/out .... practice routine. I've always tried to stay out of middle because of concern for surface condition (oil).

[@geraldstrunk9276]

Great teaching skills. I had been watching many different videos by others but really didn’t get them but you made everything understandable. Great job

[@MotoJitsu]

thanks instagram.com/motojitsuclub/

[@natfurtop]

Thank you for confirming the correct way to look through a corner! When I went to Motorcycle Safety Training course, they really really emphasized keeping your head up and looking as far ahead as you can so that you can adapt to the geometry of the corner, but I also want to know exactly what my tires are about to encounter, so I have been doing it exactly like you explained about scanning back and forth thinking that I wasn’t doing it exactly right, but feeling safer and more prepared for anything I might encounter. Another excellent instruction video MJ!

[@johnhinds6540]

Perhaps your best lesson yet. Thanks Brother!

[@dirtbike-adventures]

Love riding twisty roads on my z900rs. But I learned how to ride on a dirtbike. When road riding I don't really think about or analyze what's happening. I just twist the throttle, listen to the motor, and feel the wind surround me. Keep the shiny side up!

[@admillerr]

Awesome, just bought my first bike and this stuff is what I needed to know

[@187_Hannibal]

"End up on the outside" that makes more sense now on how to find my line and take my turn, thank you MJ

[@pb3662]

Great video and best summary you have done to date. You did clean up the definition of maintenance throttle but "crack open the throttle" gets used a lot and its not a great example of open the throttle to maintain consistent speed. Minor nitpick but defining the outer/inner/outer would be great (yes they keep changing based on left/right corner but it could be confusing to a new rider.)

My biggest fear is the cornering. I had a bad experience due to eye fixation during a corner luckily was at a slow speed. Could have been a bad outcome.

Your explanation has been perhaps the best and most intuitive I've seen yet. I feel like I am doing what you're doing when I watch the video, and it makes sense despite not being on a bike. Hell, I haven't even been on the road yet.

[@MotoJitsu]

Wow, thank you!

[@m00sing]

@@MotoJitsu One other thing you answer here for the neurotic people (like me------big over thinker) is how heavy you can hit that counter and still keep control. Without seeing it or doing it, I'm afraid I'll knock the bike off physics and become the first person on Mars. But it seems like the bike does really well and you can really play with the lean somewhat in real time to reconfigure your angles as needed. Again, I'm a huge over-thinker, so I have to see these things or I'll have no confidence when it matters. After this video, I analyzed the curves on my work commute and feel a lot more confident I can tackle those; after that I'm sure I can do your crazy windy path here! Eventually, that is lol. Something about 70mph in a steep curve scares the crap out of me due to DanDan vids. I am super grateful to people like you for doing what you do. If I had to do a bike the way my mom did back in the '80s (trial and error) I would have never left the house on one. BIG THANKS! PS: One thing I worry about watching your vid is if you go outside, especially on the left turns, don't you increase your risk of wet leaves or rocks or litter that could send you flying? How do you deal with obstacles in a lean at a moderate speed with such short notice? If you have a video that addresses this, I'd love to watch it. If not, consider the topic.

[@MotoJitsu]

you don't...just go riding and be more aware of what you're doing. If you push fast, you'll lean and therefore turn fast, if you push slowly, the bike will lean and turn slowly.

[@BellaE2509]

[@nycjanedoe]

I am currently riding in Upstate NY where the main road surfaces are less familiar to me and often in bad repair with patches, splits, bumps, ridges, etc., sometimes all in the same stretch of roadway and across the entire lane (or two), and I find myself riding with my eyes on the road just in front of me more of the time. The more I travel these roads, the more awareness I have of specific features and, eventually, I am able to adjust my speed, lean, and lane position to avoid them or pass safely over them without dramatic changes in speed. And too, at least initially, this means traveling much slower than marked speeds through corners, putting me at greater risk because of the speed of tailing traffic. I pull over safely and often to allow traffic to pass and for my own sanity, and I do my best to avoid these roads and ride the less-traveled roads which I enjoy more for all of the aforementioned reasons anyway. Too, sometimes it is necessary to use main roads to connect to other back roads. I know roads in CA are typically pretty well maintained (though, WTF with the metal patch plates)… Any advice for cornering on roads in such disrepair and with such uneven surfaces other than ‘go slow and don’t die’?

[@acherouvis]

Great video on turns. I just came back from VT, many of the roads were extremely curvy and wet. I wish I saw this tutorial prior to my trip. Could you do a video on BMW maintenance and your experience with BMW's reliability?

Excellent. I rode for Years then quit and started riding again a few years ago. I have zero confidence in corners now. Especially when they are blind. I have a drz now and want to get something bigger again. T700 hopefully next year. I want to hit canyons and twistys comfortably. I don’t want to speed I just want to be comfortable. If I’m in a corner and the ground has slurry, water, paint, or a man hole I panic in my brain.

[@MotoJitsu]

Have fun!!

[@patrickmba7638]

It's more likely you were pushing right to go right and left to go left. The pulling method is definitely more counterintuitive. If I hadn't heard about it, I most likely wouldn't have tried it to this day.

Biggest thing I see help with my cornering is practice. Applying these lessons to the real world is the only way.

I finally understood what the "slowest point of the curve" data is for.

[@peromo9397]

Around the 4:40 mark. Could you explain if you use your foot pegs to help you steer. Another valuable way to get input to your motorcycle is to present pressure to the corresponding left or right footpeg. I trained doing this, in a safe environment, where you would steer the motorcycle, without your hands on the bars, to control the direction of the bike. PS. I personally would take issue with your statement that there are no down sides to being against the centre line entering a bend. As I ride here in the UK there are many issues with doing that. In general yes, you want to get as much view as you can entering the bend. However, in the UK these bends can be very sharp, or going over blind rises and often fast moving. If a vehicle is coming in the opposite direction and has crossed the centre line, then you could have a head on collision. Or even wing mirrors on a seven ton truck could take you out. In which case I would argue that there 'are' downsides that you must take into account. The other point I noticed, is that I have never heard you talk about the 'Vanishing Point'. The point of the road where the left and right edges of the road come together on a bend. If the vanishing point is moving away from you, to the left or right, that tells you the road is curving more away from you (left or right), then you should slow down. If it is moving towards the centre, then the road is straightening up and you can apply more throttle. Are you aware of this concept? As it is certainly part of UK advanced riding doctrine.

[@MotoJitsu]

Listen to the whole video, I explain it’s all irrelevant and pushing down does nothing for steering…you can make the bike lean, on cruise control very slightly but that’s not going to help you in the canyons

[@peromo9397]

@@MotoJitsu I did watch the whole vid first. I'm talking from a UK perspective. The roads are very different here. Which is why I presented the question of 'vanishing point' to you. Is that something you are aware of? The 'vanishing point' indicates whether a bend is 'tightening' or 'opening'; depending on whether the 'vanishing point' is moving the the left or right; or moving to the centre. To get a good UK perspective, I can recommend a book you may be interested in? This is the tomb of all motorcycle training courses in the UK. It is called - 'Motorcycle Roadcraft: The Police Rider's Handbook'. There are other titles too. Though they are all based on both the traffic rules, and more importantly, how Police riders would do it in the UK. A nerd like you might enjoy going over this for similarities and differences.

[@peromo9397]

And I meant 'Nerd' in a good way; not a bad way. I respect what you do.

[@MotoJitsu]

doesn't matter where you are...putting pressure on the peg doesn't do anything. Yes, I've heard it all before...and that book that apparently all of you think was handed down by god or something...I read it...some good info...some stuff, very wrong. It's basic...much more to learn beyond that one book. Go read 10 high level motorcycle books and take 10 formal, in person high level courses...keep learning.

[@petespring6735]

I agree whith your first point. Ifomation get as mutch as you can. The 2nd point (the theres no down side to starting on the out side of a corner) in the uk 80% of drivers cant take a right corner on there side of the road. (Cuting the wight line) Sow if your on the right going into a left there is very mutch is a risk. Ok back to information. But (Not there is no down side full stop) as you sead. The out in out yes it can work but shouldent be thort of as a apex. No shuch thing on a public road. Just the line your takeing that is safes for you at the time. Theres a loads of ways to take a singel corner. It might be out out out it might be in in in or out in in or in out out. I do aggen the less lean angel the more stable. point 3 yup agree entyerly you tell it what you whant to do. Point 4 you dont need to be looking at speedo for your speed. The limet point is your consern not the numbers on dassh. Or how fast you took it the last time. Ageen ifomation. 5th point yup ageen entyerly. I ageer get out and practice. In my opinion rideing is all about try it if you like keep it in your box of trikes. If you dont throw it away. Maybe even come back later in life. If it works for you then do it. Keep lerning. I do like your vidios. You will be helping loads of people. Yes i know opinions are like a$$ holes every ones got one. This is mine. Would love thorts on my thorts....

brother, thanks for the informative video. i just have a question: how do you protect yourself from vehicles that overshoot at high speeds in twisties? may be unheard of where you're from, but it's insanely common where i'm from. and yes, i mean head-on collisions in curves. im not trying to be the "correct" one in the road. just wanna ride, have fun, and survive + hate it when my bike gets scratches, im sure you know the feeling XD will really appreciate any input. thanks again.

[@MotoJitsu]

I don't ride on weekends anymore on these twisty corners. Weekdays are almost empty. but either way, I just always anticipate it and ready to react

[@dancingmaryjane]

can you please do a video on throttle hand placement? i find myself switching to an angular grip "ala screwdriver" when entering into the corner , but mainly doing regular "straight" hand style when going into it. is this normal? do you switch your grip up mid corner to maintain maintenance throttle while counter steering? maybe do a camera just on your hand while on a sport bike / naked bike

[@MotoJitsu]

screwdriver grip is only for full body position, only for right hand turns...and it's personal preference. Unless you're hanging off really far while going right, it's irrelevant. I don't do anything with my hand on the street....I just hold the grip like normal.

[@fabianmckenna8197]

Hi MotoJitsu. I'm not even a rookie. Moto school courses will start soon. i have 1 questions: 1. What if you're up hill, and you have a hair pin(180 ) right hand curve with 25% degrees ramp(25 meters up, at 100 meters drive)? (That one, is harder also for car drivers)

[@davidowens2320]

Slow down....better come out safe.....no speed required

[@motiejunassimonas]

Hey! Great video! Just wanted to ask about throttle, while going in the corner can i keep it zero? Is it safe? O i still should keep a bit of it? Thanks man

[@MotoJitsu]

Most corners you're at 0% going into it.

[@slystandby]

But, start to accelerate slowly (not full throttle) at decreasing lean angle helps the bike straiten up. Off cause counter steering doing whole work, but with little bit acceleration it's feel more natural and easy. I'm missing something?

[@CaptainCaveman782]

3. The countersteering name is totally misleading by most youtubers and not explained clearly here either unfortunately! People constantly say PUSH left to go left (counterintuitive). It is an INITIAL brief MOMENTARY adjustment to knock the bike off centre and INITIATE the lean into the corner. HOWEVER! you immediately turn in the opposite direction and steer around the direction of the corner! Your wheel still needs to turn into the direction of the corner.

[@MotoJitsu]

It’s called the caster effect of trail and happens automatically once you stop pushing. Take CA Superbike School dude, and Champ School. Much more to learn

[@landontrammell9299]

Great training video

[@MotoJitsu]

Glad you enjoyed it instagram.com/motojitsuclub/

[@YourJamaicanChief]

Do you keep a constant throttle while counter steering or am I off the throttle covering the front brakes

[@MotoJitsu]

doesn't really make any sense of what you said...but 99% of the time, you're off the throttle when going into a turn...if you're on the brakes or not is based on how much you need to slow down.

[@joniengstrom]

🤔 straight lining makes sense on track when you want to be as quick as possible, but on twisties it kinda takes away the whole point of curvy riding, but I get the point why it's done.

[@MotoJitsu]

Less energy, more efficient, less lean, less risk, quicker speed, you’re still cornering obviously just slightly straighter w/all those benefits. There’s no downside.

[@101deathcore]

@@MotoJitsu I think he is saying he wants to get a good lean on. might wanna do a vid on how to make that safer for those that want that sort of thing. went on a ride this weekend and a learner rider parked next to me and started talking to his friends about how much "chicken strips" he had on his tires in comparison to them. I had a chat with them and they just like getting low. I'd guess they are actively doing the opposite of racing lines to get that low on that road, but meh

[@MotoJitsu]

I have 4 videos on chicken strips and how absolutely stupid it is…you can still get your “lean” on by doing what I’m talking about in the video.

[@101deathcore]

@@MotoJitsu you can, but to get the same lean you would have to go faster because your taking the corners properly. I'm not sure the increased speed to reach a certain lean level thus adrenaline level is safer or not.

[@jonr4651]

I might be biased, but I believe that it is objectively right to push on the handlebars to steer. If you’re pulling you’re asking for trouble. You pull to brake or clutch you push to steer.

[@MotoJitsu]

Doesn’t matter which one you do or if you do both or just one

[@jonr4651]

@@MotoJitsu Sure both will do the job, I’ve just found it more helpful to teach it as push initially, since it helps my students overcome over-gripping and understanding counter steering more intuitively. I will have them practice on gentle curves pushing with palms out to steer so they get a more relaxed approach to moving the bike. Once they understand this implicitly it doesn’t matter how they steer. Pulling handlebars while braking into a left just feels wrong to me since I’m already pulling the lever I’d much rather push with my left hand that’s free and relaxed. Part of that is possibly my heavy controls and tendon problems talking but I digress.
