10 Things MotoGP Champions do to Go FASTER

[@BLDH]

12:36 Need to give a shoutout to your riding. Looking so good my man!

[@MikeonBikes]

Thanks man!

[@MotoJitsu]

Awesome! Was great meeting you and seeing you rip around on your Supermoto!

[@MikeonBikes]

Great meeting you too!

[@SaWuDOHC]

Motojitsu I can beat you in U turns and figure 8s

[@akashiam2021]

my two'great teachers ❤️

[@arjunp1835]

Mike why did you remove the Chill boop Roll street riding video? That video helped me to get from novice rider to intermediate track rider!

[@FadilKarim]

Love your use of visual indicators to show where you're looking, when you're braking, etc.

[@motojojo_]

One again Mike, you smashed this one. No matter how much I think I know there’s always so much more to learn. Like I knew about scanning back, it’s something I do in cars, but didn’t know the why, it’s just something I do. And getting the bike upright I learned in a hurry on a very wet track day (instructors saying “Yeah, just keep the bike upright” and the few who had stayed going “Uhh… ok”) but the how is like a revelation. Going to try the mantra thing before going on the commute tomorrow (“Just don’t crash, just don’t crash”).

[@opticalecho119]

I feel like I accidentally learned scanning back when driving because I look far ahead but it feels physically harder for me to focus my eyes scanning from near to far than far to near

[@motojojo_]

@@opticalecho119 that might be because of the amount of information involved. With scanning back you've already discounted superfluous information from the scene, it's the details that stood out you're checking. The reverse, you'll see more fine detail but then you have to reprocess everything from scratch

[@TheFacescrew]

I love watching motogp riders they're in tune with their bikes on another level and the bike is simply just an extension of themselves. I know this applies to many other sports/motorsports but its so prominent in this case

[@curryracing6589]

I did the look ahead scan back thing subconsciously since I started riding and it always annoyed me because I thought you had to be constantly looking way in front and I could never get it. But now I know that it might not be that bad. Great vid Mike.

[@nick4506]

are these the same people who did the 100 points of grip video? i heard points and that's where my mind went to.

[@_johnm]

Yes

[@ereHeuqibmazoM]

I accidentally wheelied out of a corner yesterday for the first time. Came up to the point I was looking at the sky then I remembered there was a turn in under 4-3secs and that I have a front brake use it dummy so I hit my toe on it it came down I locked up the rear slid a bit and gave gas to make the turn 😅 legit pulled over afterwards and had to process hat I had just done because I didn’t even think I just acted and I was proud feeling but also felt stupid as well.

[@fahim113]

I don't even ride. Just a motor racing fan but this is so interesting. Makes watching racing so much more interesting

[@enopio_O]

Your channel deserves more subscriptions. Well done

[@midenking9651]

I learnt more here in 15 minutes then I've learnt from people in 5+ years!

[@Scorpion7substance]

Your lap at the end looked like a MotoGP rider, you were getting it in, good job.

[@tcparker2]

Oddly satisfying watching someone run crisp clean lines. Great ride along lap!

[@anantsaiasthana2643]

can't believe this content is for free

[@mnnic4292]

The clarity of your explanations and video are fantastic. Thank you.

[@jtslev]

These types of videos are amazing. Thank you for posting!

[@dukie1616]

Real clear and easy to understand descriptions. Thank you for showing some of your champ school drills👍

[@Peter-mcmcmc]

What an excellent summarization of TCRS; thank you! I've taken Champ U (and watched many sections over and over), and plan to attend the two-day school this coming fall. Your assessment is incredibly helpful, and you relay the info astoundingly well. For example, yesterday I went on an eighty mile ride after watching your video and practiced the rear brake immediately before front brake in corners. What a stabilizing affect that has -- thank you again for the invaluable content! ✌🤘

[@aaronanu886]

nailed it again with the new video 👏👏👏👏

[@RiderKStory]

Surprisingly, I'm starting to understand what you're saying. I hope that you will continue to be my great teacher. thank you brother!!

[@davenaga6101]

Excellent info.if u naturally do this stuff already,i think no.10 is th secret edge.visualation is perfect ,th rest is follow thru,automatic..n stay loose

[@p.kuansuwan2070]

Now this is just what I was looking for. It’s fascinating how you may think you know these techniques well until you discover that the best riders do the same techniques with minor differences, yet crucial details that just makes them leagues better than you. Thanks for the video, I’ve tried the sample course and I think I’ll sign up for the online school; It’s a shame I’m in Thailand and cannot afford to travel…

[@Bikes4Eddie]

this video is simply brilliant. i love the storytelling and of course the tips in it. Amazing job!

[@krishchandran6819]

Great video! & Congrats on your Skill's!!!

[@johnnylucid]

Thanks for the great content Mike. It's very appreciated.

[@johanannema6813]

Great informative video👍🏻

[@mikedominick]

Thanks for this. Very helpful, even for a 1st year track rider.

[@marcusgeorge1825]

A similar class is run at my old home racetrack being Phillip Island about an hour or two from my home city of Melbourne (depending on where you live in it). Although my racing days were in the 90’s, a lot of techniques have improved so after watching this I think I’ll book myself into one. Thanks for the video. 👍😎🇦🇺

[@opticalecho119]

Maybe they’ll teach you to drift turn 3 like Stoner

[@marcusgeorge1825]

@@opticalecho119 you mean the entrance to turn 4. Stoner was an absolute champion of his time. It’s interesting that I’ve possibly done more laps around the circuit in race conditions than he ever did. Just not in the same universe…. 😂

[@Igbon5]

I did a Keith Code course there, with the man himself. Just after I got my new 750. Did you know Steve Brouggy?

[@fu5ha_edits]

Awesome video, great takeaways from champ school and your own added analysis was spot on.

[@stevenmoore4078]

Great video. I went to YCRS and it was an awesome experience. Even if you don't plan to be a track rider, the lessons are invaluable.

[@FergFactoryRacing]

Awesome lessons here! I hope to teach as many as you do one day!

[@motomike8536]

Awesome video bro production value is stellar as always and super informative.

[@axist2389]

Excellent video. Thanks for the great work.

[@Showmetheevidence-]

Nice lap at the end!

[@robbo8444]

Absolutely fantastic video of th best concepts

[@motonomy]

Thanks man Can you please create something similar for off-road riding

[@moomoodeadcow]

This is some quality content.

[@nickchilds3104]

Just bought the online course with your code! Thanks so much for these videos. I don’t doubt they helped me not crash on tail of the dragon this past weekend lol

[@nandus2224]

Happy to see jorge Lorenzo in the beginning 💕

[@llewellynstdavid245]

Epic channel! Physics don't lie. Thanks for making it so easily understandable.

[@one-of-us9939]

Thanks Mike!

[@jesam75]

Very instructive and as always impeccable editing. Vielen Dank!

Thanks for the greeeaaattt content as always!!!! PLEASE do a vid featuring your new KTM SMR :D !

[@ramcadag]

been waiting for your new videos like this! thumbs up, Mike on Bikes!

[@denissession9423]

Love the video , it’s like taking the course all over again , the best money I every spent on learning and in the moto sport period.

[@brotendo]

That's streets of willow. I've done thousands of laps around that thing. I took my very first ever racing school there back in 2003 with Keith Code's school.

[@ItsSaiyan]

Great video, was think reacting to it with my own thoughts on it 🤔

[@martijnrozendaal1818]

Love what you are doing Mike! Keep doing it. Just signed up for Champ U.

[@jimmcmaster6227]

It would be a hilarious prank for a gp rider to attend the school. Imagine the instructor trying to film his ride from behind and he’s just saying…..seeeeya

[@Juuul89]

Fantastic video, all I have to say :)

[@muddabeate5530]

Stoner is definitely a bad example for smooth riding xD he is literally all over the place sliding like crazy (absolutely amazing looking btw)

[@shivex]

That was some really nice insight, thanks for the video!

[@JohnSpeedShift]

Awesome! Thanks for this man! Learned a lot again!

[@kz6fittycent]

That was great man! Gonna try these ASAP

Amazing video

[@Comrade134]

Great content. Well structured video. Thank you 👍🏽

[@petersrobar1955]

beautiful countryside to ride in

[@trantas4]

I own a vfr 800 with a Combined Brake System(CBS). I'm 28yo and i use the bike harder than it was supposed to be used. I've found that it is really stable under heavy braking. Rear end never gets off the ground. The part of the video mentioning the use of the rear brake, can explain my theory. From what i see in forums, people have a love-hate relationship with the CBS. Personally, i think it's awesome technology that makes the bike safer and as a result, faster while braking. What is your opinion on CBS?

[@ANIK5261]

For those who are new to driving CBS is fine - I personally found it annoying lol

[@trantas4]

@@ANIK5261 Why?

[@8alakai8]

with the breacking i even do that in the you can do it a lot harder and with more controlle and yes i ride bike to

[@goafun50]

That's amazing 👏

[@marktiller1383]

S bends as a new rider 35 mph as an accomplished rider 85 mph really pushing. I lived in a town with a massive amount of motorcyclist. One guy should of been a pro GP rider, ( he was a agriculture mechanic) and never realised his mind-blowing skill. Me and the rest of the town was just motorcyclist. Ah fuck it I'm going to name him Steve Welford from east Grinstead West Sussex. A god

[@tomlathrop1945]

great riding / video thanks

[@ZartaxtheWise]

Hi! I'm a bit puzzled about the viscoelastic explanation for smooth imputs. Usually this is explaned with suspension loading and weight transfer, which seams resonable. The viscoelastic explanation however, doesn't make sense considering we are talking about a rolling wheel. The rubber that is in contact with the ground when you start the braking/throtteling isn't the same as when reaching maximum, even if you smash the brake. If your contact patch is about 1dm long, which is reasonable on a motorcycle wheel under load, and you are going at 90km/h (25m/s) the rubber at the front will stay in contact with the ground for 4ms before leaving again. And 90km/h isn't that fast on a race bike at a track at the braking point. What I'm saying is, the rubber always experience load and force applied abruptly, regardless of your imputs. If you are in the middle of braking, a certain patch of rubber on the tire will go from zero load to full brake force in less than 1ms as it rolls down to meet the ground.

[@ZartaxtheWise]

Number 8 is also a bit weird. The demonstration on a stationary bike is not the same situation as the dynamics when riding. In the demonstration, when the bike is pressed down the rear wheel rolls back a bit (the front brake is pressed). Rear brakes are then applied stopping the rear wheel from rolling forward when the springs push upwards, making the bike stay in place or go back slowly. But when in motion, the wheels roll and the distance between the wheels float and you lose this effect. Try it without locking the front wheel and the bike should pop right back up., albeit a bit slower since there is more mass to move (pulling the front back instead of just raising the rear). When in motion the front wheel is actually pushing back quite hard and will raise the rear almost immediatly, regardless of rear braking or not.

[@ZartaxtheWise]

Other than that I think all points are great and good examples on what to do when riding, in general or on a track.

[@billk4477]

Wow excellent

[@cristiancardelli7831]

Please, more videos with spanish subtitles

[@angeljuarez8646]

Can you go more in detail about drop the head and when to do it? Please

[@fu5ha_edits]

As champ school would say it, once you "have direction" (know you are pointed where you want to go) and are able to begin to take away lean angle from the turn, you crack the first 5% of throttle smoothly. Then, as Mike described here, once you are able to feel the grip you have with that first 5%, you can begin to open the throttle more quickly, and this is where you head drop--to reduce effective lean angle and increase grip to the rear tire, allowing you to open that throttle more quickly after the smooth initial onset.

[@neoanderson4840]

Neat stuff 👌 👏 and 👍

[@Motorard]

In the end they need a great bike under them to compliment their style and form right? Like rossi is great on a yamaha but with not a ducati

[@MrLew1965]

DUDE ! These Pro Moto GP riders are thinking of what their having for dinner while racing !! It becomes natural after a while !! Your over thinking this BIG TIME !!

[@badgumby9544]

I had to quit road racing at 67 years old. Concentration wasn't what it needed to be anymore. Too many moments of brain farts. Too dangerous on a bike at those speeds.

[@beck3740]

i think the smoothest rider on track rn is Alex Rins

[@ankitrawat7660]

As smooth as Alex rins.

Cornering = See, cut the gear, gas, bit of brakes, get in, get out, accelerate. SImple. good luck to nerds who uses that equation.

this focus is using your non consius brain for some it takes time to activate it i have it with gaming shooters need a warm up round to performe good and get in that focus so all that waiting will bring you back to normal out of focus i did drone racing at high level that was the problem waiting doing nothing and have to perform at youre best right away no warm up round before
