Higher speed turns on a Harley

[@royhuxley8903]

I have been riding motorcycles for 58 years, but still found your riding techniques invaluable, especially for riding a big motorcycle. We are never too old to learn better riding techniques to keep us safe and you made me realise its time I enrolled for a refresher course. Many thanks.

[@frankbrown4300]

Roy Huxley You and I VB are on the same page !

[@noahmercy-mann4323]

"Ride your own ride" is one of the absolute BEST pieces of advice one can give to riders new or experienced. It completely encapsulates the idea of being safe and having fun while motorbiking within the limits of the bike, roads, and rider abilities. You and your lady be sure to look us up when you get out to the Big Horn Mountains to ride...this is some of the best riding in the USA!

[@adamjaeger4189]

Agreed

When I first started riding, I rode solo until I was 100% comfortable with the bike

[@jakobfritz815]

Wish I found you before this weekend. Last Thursday I played down my 2007 Yamaha Silverado, little sore but still alive. Rode poorly 20 years ago and thought I could just jump back on, I really appreciate your videos and will be purchasing your dvd this week. Thanks for your teachings.

[@danb6546]

Living in Pennsylvania, crazy hills and turns are just a normal day. Great videos!

[@jackk1583]

Love the play by play commentary. Practical and realistic. 'Ride within your skill limits.' Love that. I notice that the more I practice, the more my limits increase. Like a turtle, slow and steady, keep your own pace, no competition on the streets translates into enjoyable and safe riding. Great vid as usual.

[@jroberthadden]

Nice ride. You and I ride and think very similarly. I helped teach school bus drivers how to negotiate mountain curves out here in WYO. They were always surprised when I taught them how to approach a curve so as to optimize the ability to see through the apex and to always look "downfield". Also, the concept of staying in a lower gear and saving the brakes while going down a mountain was a foreign concept to most of them. I led demo rides for Piaggo (Guzzi) during the Sturgis Rally in '16, '17, and for the local dealer in '18. Our route was up Vanocker Canyon Road about five miles, then back down. Not surprisingly there were many "riders" who had never ridden an apex properly. I hoped that, by following my line, they would see the reasoning. I had many compliments as to how our demo ride was the best one at the whole Rally. Keep up the good work. We, as motorcyclists, need educational videos such as these.

[@fredericktheiner1284]

Thank you Jerry! I appreciate the video. It’s nice to know that the way I ride into unfamiliar curves is correct and not just me being “scared”.

[@donaldpruett852]

Hey Motor Man. I watch all your videos I can and love them. I'm 78 and stated riding when I was 14 (1958) on a Harley Hummer 165 2 stroke one-lunger. I've had many (about 27) motorcycles (plus 2 Yamaha 4X4 quads) and cut my teeth on enduro dirt bikes in the Arizona Desert. Wide open spaces and miles without seeing another rider, following power line roads etc. I know exactly what you mean a rider making all the same errors for years. There's a difference between having 40 years experience, and having one year, forty times. My last two bikes were a 2001 Road King (Bought in 2003) I rode for just over 4 years. Then a short time later Spring of 2008) I bought a 2006 Sportster 1200 Roadster I rode for 4+ years. Never had any "AH-SHIT" moments because I rode like a sane person and could read driver's body language and pretty much knew what they were going to do before they did. That and just lucky I guess. Funny thing about luck. The more careful and knowledgable you make yourself the more "luck" you seem to have. Come to Arizona sometime and ride from Flagstaff to Sedona on Hwy 89A. You'll love it.

[@steventhompson3507]

Thanks Jerry! Love these rides you take us on.

[@tonyc2912]

I really learned to ride while I was on the police department. Never went to motor school, but was trained on our 250cc Honda Rebels (Big city police department). I received that training when I was 22 years old. Best damn motorcycle training I've ever received. I still remember all of the training. 30 years later , I'm now retired and ride my Harley's full time. You never stop learning, and I truly enjoy your videos. Ride safe brother.

[@richcanfield1387]

Loved it Jerry! We enjoyed the ride and the commentary along the way. You never stop learning as you said. I still refer back to your DVDs, and will keep your crash bar protectors on my new Road King forever! Thanks Jerry for all your help! We all ride safer thanks to you my friend.

[@Steverinomeister]

Love Motormans way of explaining and seeing skills put into practice on this ride along is very helpful.

[@rickmyerscough7788]

Motor man, thank you so much for all your good tips throughout the years. Many years ago I discovered you and have been using your tips and your course, the DVDs and the handbook. I instruct the MSF safety course at Harley Davidson here in Atlanta. I use your tips for instruction before class starts and sometimes during class. Very helpful.... l encourage people to look at your site to learn more as they learn to ride. Hopefully they’ll buy your course as well. Also, I like to show them your wife Donna, and Mari-Anne...(I believe is her name), riding the big Harleys and big Indians. It helps ladies to see other ladies riding like they do. Thank you, and keep up the good work. Thank you for sharing your insights and tips.

[@motorman857]

Thanks for the kind words.

[@KoJo-qh9od]

Great advice about not trying to keep up with other riders. I have ridden with a group of motor cops for several thousand miles and we always understood we would all meet up at our destination and get there at whatever speed is comfortable for you.

[@davypig571]

Thanks for taking us along and proving there are a couple curves in Florida. I watched this with the a/c on so your humidity didn’t get to me:(

[@jeffhouchin6617]

your videos has help me so much,I have rode for 20 years and still learning. I don't keep up with others like you say I ride my ride. thanks for lessons

[@fredericktheiner1284]

Thanks for the video Jerry! It’s nice to know that there is nothing wrong with the way I ride on an unfamiliar road in terms of slowing down and looking through the curve. Especially since in my area, winter really takes its toll on the roads creating long crevices and pot holes which unfortunately don’t get expeditiously repaired.

[@gregwhite4198]

I'm not an experienced rider. I had dirt bikes as a kid! Rode street bikes. Never owned 1 until recently! Bought from a friend a 2013 dyna crossover. Only 3000 miles on it. Going to take star course or the Harley shop has same course. Leaning towards them. Anyways, I wasn't exactly sure about turns. The push right into a right turn or left push left! Going to practice in parking lot they do the star course in this weekend! Thank you for the tips, sharing your experience! I've subscribed to your page and even after the course, I take? Ill look forward to your videos and tips experience etc! Thanks again bro! I'm not one of those riders that go balls out! I'll ride at my comfort zone, until I'm confident and little more experience before, I make a much needed but can wait ling ride! Stay safe and thank you again

[@markh4763]

Most of my life I've had smaller to mid sized bikes. I was very surprised when I got my Ultra Classic at just how well mannered it was in the twisties. Its not a sport bike but it handles surprisingly well for such a large bike. Brake in a straight line, turn in to the apex, accelerate out.

[@dry509]

This is so important. So many accidents with people not negotiating curves.

[@dannymiller7187]

Man I remember the second time I rode my dads Harley that I got when he passed away. I was with his three friends and they took me on some really windy roads. Of coursethey tolf me to take them at my own pace and they’d wait for me at the splits but I was trying my hardest to keep up with them. They took those turns so damn fast there was no way I could keep up. That day taught me a lot.

[@clarkbabin9799]

I'm from the bayou country in Louisiana home of cajuns where our roads follow bayous and turn and wind along side. Although we do have our share of boring straight roads. I've found my 19 fltrxs works well with these roads. Love the abs system. Been owning and riding my own bikes since 05. Was a time when I rode as much if not more than the motorcycle police and most people. I think I do pretty good but I watch your vlogs because it cant hurt to polish your own skills and you've actually affirmed what I have and haven't been doing right.

[@13_Cowboy]

Cool vid - subscribed! We learn trail braking in Switzerland because we have a LOT of curves, and a lot of them steeply downhill where you may even have to maintain light brake pressure through the entire turn. For example, the mountain that I live on is a 25% grade that contains 180+ degree hairpins. (Balmberg Pass Switzerland) Even Swiss people have a lot of respect for that.

[@davypig571]

That sounds like your roads are the opposite of Florida’s flat, boring stuff:)

[@fullfaced_349]

So much valuable knowledge, thank you for what you do sir. I’m a new rider so I highly appreciate these videos. I’m riding my sportster to work for the first time tomorrow so I’m definitely excited to put these techniques into use!

[@victorenos3097]

I love your videos. Im a first time bike owner and will be taking my safety course next week.

[@noahnoah4526]

Just finished by MSF and hope to take your course once I've got the necessary requirements, Thankfully I have not had much fear of leaning the bike yet but I guess time will tell. The roads out here in Dade City/Zephyrhills have been very fun to ride so hopefully I'll have a few thousand miles down in no time. Thanks for the free videos.

[@bikerbrinrac]

Great video Jerry 👍. The sound and video seems fine to me. I'm with you Jerry to do 99% of the braking before you get to your turn and accelerate out of it. I do that and find it works great for me & my bro. West Coast Florida looks good riding along with the water each side. Nice wide river over the bridge near the end there. Ah yes I've had a few tank slappers in my early days of crazy speed riding with limited experience.

[@howardslade267]

Jerry I'm not familiar with the tank slapping, thanks for your videos. I ordered the Ride like a Pro course and your techniques are stellar. They have improved my low speed control 500 percent. Thanks.

[@flounder2760]

some fork angles typical of most sport bikes when they have the tire come up and back down. if the tire wasnt in line with the direction of travel ... it can cause a phenomenon called tank slapping as the handle bars rotate left and right hard and fast and because of the way centrifugal force it bounces back and forth trying to stabilize.. but not accomplishing it on its own. kzbin.info/www/bejne/jabOmXSPoNh2ipY in this video its a wheelie and the tire not being aligned when it came back down perfectly... but this can happen at high speed on a pot hole. also known as a death wobble when it starts really whipping your bike back and forth... some sport bike and professional racers have learned to wheelie out of a death wobble. this is an example of someone saving themselves from a wobble with more throttle lol whether intentional or not i cant know. kzbin.info/www/bejne/rqulZ36Joalpm8U

[@flounder2760]

though iv only been riding 2 seasons so... do get some additional sources of info.tank slappers are the primary reason i dont ever try wheelies and avoid even small pot holes.

[@rayl9335]

"Ride your own ride". Great advice. Just subscribed, enjoying your videos from a fellow Floridian.. Recently went on a very large group ride of nearly 300 bikes. First and last time. I was shocked at how many riders did not follow some of the common sense you gave. Riders passing on curves, some clustered in small groups within 10-15' of each other going 50 to 60+ mph. I'll stick to solo riding or very small groups.

[@colvilletitus1020]

That was a wonderful video on cornering. It did help me and hope it will help others to ride their own ride.

[@scapegoat9512]

Ride your own ride, great advice for novice riders. The delayed apex as well as accelerating through the corners have been great tools in my riding. Thanks Jerry

Thanks for another entertaining informative video Jerry, I am in the "one years experience twenty times over" category, before every ride now , I go to a nearby industrial estate and spend some time practising. Slowly and surely ,I am noticing improvement . Near where I live in Australia ,there are few straight roads so that cornering practice is paying off. I do ride my own ride, enjoy it much more.

I use to ride my Suzuki GS 1000 on it back in the 90`s and early 2000`s back then I had cast iron balls . Now I`m a cruiser guy. The biggest problems are there is no shoulder , a lot of sand and gravel outfits and most of the road are muddy gravel roads that come on to the HWY . It makes for a lot of debris on the pavement . A lot of guys have lost there lives on that road . I had a friend who hit a cow on that road . It went threw the windshield of his car .

Get him, Donna. Hahaha that was great! Love you both and your lessons. Massive someday we can meet. My sister lives in Davenport. Good excuse to ride out there.

[@chrismoore5536]

More tips.....downshift to reduce speed, PUSH the left handle/grip and lean left for left curves; PUSH the right handle/grip and lean right for right curves. Pushing on the handle bar gets the bike into the curve and alleviates any panic if you are coming in hot. I know pushing on your handle/grip seems opposite of what you think you should do, but trust me, it's a great way to get your bike into a lean. You NEVER want to try and "steer" the bike.

If you haven't yet instead of the dragon go to highway 151 devils drop. I recommend going uphill first then down hill. Has several hairpins and hard turns. Quite an exhilarating ride. And at the end there is a nice little diner called 151 diner. And before you get to the diner going downhill there's a little waterfall with a hard turn just before.

If you find yourself coming into a corner a little "hot", the best technique is actually to lean into the turn more; not less. Some people freak out and either hit the brakes causing a slide or attempt to straighten up the bike and run off the road. It's amazing how much traction those tires have. Of course, this would need some careful modulation if it's raining, and if it's icy, your SOL.
