CountryTrax is your answer.... Exceptional trainers... I'm riding for 2 years.. Just attended the GS Trophy Finals in Aberdeen. Give them a try.. Following

Ooooh, I'd love to do the GS Trophy next time around (I was just too late this year). Did you compete in the screening rounds? How was it? I attended Thomas Bohm's intermediate course (not that it's evident from the video! LOL), but would love to do the Country Trax one too. Next year! Happy riding!

Hi F., i think youd benefit from slightly elevated rpm (this bike with this torque just above idle is enough) and adjust speed through clutch control, ideally with 1 finger, max 2. This will give you less jerking, more control and smoother and more predictable advancement once you get the hang of it.

Thanks man! My throttle control is terrible. I am used to revving erratically and need to learn to keep the revs constant at 1500ish and work the clutch. I'm using two fingers. The problem when I used the throttle is that I take the revs too high at times and then I start smelling the dry clutch. I'll keep practising. Cheers!

Good video. But, DUDE don't cross your legs when lifting. You lose almost all power and risk hurting yourself. Please use a wider stand so you don't have an accident. PEACE

[@GreaseAndGravel]

Thanks for the tip! I must admit, but that stage I was so exhausted and hot that I forgot all the techniques and just tried to muscle it. I will practice it a bit. Cheers

[@GreaseAndGravel]

Oh wow!!! I just checked that part again and I actually crossed my legs completely. I didn't even notice! Thank you so much for pointing that out!
