Now go ride a few hundred miles and practice, then let me know what you think. Did it help? Confuse you? Didn't make a difference?

This morning rode 200km on a windy rainy day here in Australia ,after taking on board this video info yesterday . What confuses me is the difference of location of apex point from a right hand turn to a left hand turn ( in Oz we ride on left side of road but have pretended I am riding on the right in this post ) So you are going 60 mph down the mountain straight you are coming to a right hand turn , you pick your approach line , look ahead for the apex near the gutter and steer to and through that point , then look ahead to through the exit point to the next corner? If that part is correct , if you are approaching a left hand turn …then is the apex considered nearest to the centre line ? Today I considered the apex on both right corners and left corners as nearest the gutter. And I felt my riding was flowing much better using the look ahead to the apex and to the exit , and then to next corner strategy . But I watched this video when I got home from ride. and on left hand corner you are referencing the apex as closest to centre line ? My question is can’t the apex reference point be on the gutter side always ? Doesn’t this keep us safer away from centreline and dickheads in cars that cross over as what was observed three times today on the mountain twisties.😮 Regardless , following your advice I genuinely felt smoother and was faster in the corners , and I hardly used my brakes. I am a returning rider who was mainly an off roader , though I did ride a FJ1200 back in 87. So I am not the fastest rider out there , mopeds sometimes tail gate me😂 But have learnt a lot watching this channel, and think this mornings ride was a breakthrough for me . Just an add on , here in Oz they have safety campaigns advising riders to start wide in a corner and end narrow. We have so many big SUVs here and so many drivers can’t judge the width of their vehicle , today 3 of these drivers , were at least a foot over the double yellow centre line and one was at least three feet over, I survived by riding at moderate pace and using the gutter as my apex reference point after starting wide. Sorry if I have confused anyone . I would like MJ to do a more detailed video on this subject with him riding and spelling out each step of each turn. Here in Australia the riding instructors say look through the turn , but I think some of us do that , but leave out judging the apex and plotting a line through it ? I know up until digesting and practising this video instruction I did , no wonder Harley boys were eating me on my rides . I ride a Honda Transalp 750 and a kawasaki Versys 650 both great bikes .

You have helped improve my riding confidence 100%. I have never placed a comment before in any forum . You have been a huge help . Thanks you .

Glad to help!

[@jhvorlicky]

Funny, for a change, this is already totally natural for me. I guess going fast downhill on road and mtb bicycles since the age of 8 has helped that! Cheers anyway. It's useful to hear someone else explaining what I already do. This is the first time it's happened with your videos!

[@MotoJitsu]

things change when the pace goes up

[@vijayam1]

Brilliant. Simply brilliant. Let your vision flow like a water and not 50 pencing..

[@MotoJitsu]

[@franckbald3750]

While I’ve always caught on quickly to everything you explain, I have to admit that without practicing and actually feeling things out, this one just isn’t clicking. Even after watching several videos on the same topic, I’m still stuck. But this last video is the clearest one yet: the vision is steady, at a more or less fixed distance, and constantly seeks out reference points. This will be a big change from the ‘perpetual scanning’ I'm used to and that you imitate so well 😉. It’ll be my weekend practice. Thanks!

[@MotoJitsu]

Welcome ;) keep at it instagram.com/motojitsuclub/

[@andyarmstrong81]

I have completed the level 1, 2 & 3 of the California Superbike School in the UK, phenomenal course for both track and road riding. Level 2 (vision) had the biggest impact to my riding so far. I will complete level 4 next year. Big supporter of further tuition and learning, there is always more to learn and improve.

[@MotoJitsu]

♥️👍🏼

[@shriramkotasthane7378]

Nice explanation..but in your earlier videos you used to say we should look ahead and scan back. However I also understand that scanning back makes it more complicated in terms of vision so this current method is easier and more effective. Thanks for bringing newer perspective..

[@MotoJitsu]

Yup, I’ve learned new and better ways

[@minimokey3136]

I've trying to do that but my eyes move up and down, looking up at the line I want to take and down to look out for potholes, etc. Especially those hidden in the shadows.

[@MotoJitsu]

I can see potholes or whatever else as I'm looking ahead..if I need to bring my eyes back down close to me to notice something, I wasn't looking or paying attention enough instagram.com/motojitsuclub/

[@MotoJitsu]

:) yup instagram.com/motojitsuclub/

[@wadeblake3451]

I remember answering that specific question, “where are you looking” with all over the place. Clearly I benefited from California Superbike level 2. Very important concept to be aware of and practice. Your video is very helpful in reinforcing the turn point, preapex, apex, and exit. Thank you.

[@MotoJitsu]

♥️👀

[@joshuagoeke1742]

I practiced fisherman vision but it always felt the opposite of smooth. Too much back and forth but I felt safe thinking I was practicing a common practice. I like the idea of your vision matching your ideal line and throttle. Even though that seemed intuitive to me. I think its evolution as a person. Discard the bad implement the good. Don't get comfortable or complacent with your skills. Get out there and challenge yourself...and of course go practice. Much oblidged Greg your videos always take a creative turn and reignite desire to actively practice being a better safer rider. Keep killing it!

[@MotoJitsu]

Thanks, will do instagram.com/motojitsuclub/

[@DanielG34]

Amazing video, thank you. Great timing as i've been thinking about this exact "chain of vision" process a lot lately. One question i'm struggling with: does your turn in point vary depending on the width of your path of travel? Using your notebook chart at 5:40, if my path of travel was wider or narrower, would it change the spot (further or closer) of the turn in point? width of path of travel can be impacted by so many things. Thanks!

[@MotoJitsu]

It’s just a reference point that doesn’t move, whenever you turn depends on a lot of variables and it may not be exactly at that point

[@cyke767]

Thanks for sharing your wisdom with us. Im gonna practice this the next time Im riding. Before Ive always planned my riding and cornering around the term "look as far ahead as you can". But its true, I sometimes notice my eyes jumping back because I was looking too far ahead. I have learned so much from you since I started watching your videos (and probably avoided one or the other crash because of the knowledge I aquired from you) Greetings from Germany ❤

[@MotoJitsu]

welcome! instagram.com/motojitsuclub/

[@damp5900]

One of the things I've learned about apex is that as i turn in a corner i keep following the line of the corner. An open line. The moment that the corner goes straight, at the exact opposite side of the road that's where the apex is.

[@MotoJitsu]

whatever works for you instagram.com/motojitsuclub/

The finger penciling of the "pre-apex" points during the rides like you did in this were really helpful for me. Cheers!

[@TheEvil._.Grimace]

I practiced what you spoke about on your last video and I was doing the majority. What I was doing was looking far ahead before my next turn back to my turn looking to the point of leaning and the apex. When I tried what you explained, I looked for the lean, the pre-apex and I'd hit the apex which seemed to be closest to the exit every time. But it was very fluid once I did it a few times. 😊

[@MotoJitsu]

Very timely video for me. I'm getting back on a motorcycle after several years of scooter riding.This morning I practiced following the "bread crumbs" and think it was very helpful for someone like me who's never really undertood where to look and why. Smooth throttle and lines all morning, no more bucking from looking too far and looking down. Thank you!

As you are so much into training and learning, have you ever considered or done pitbiking?

[@MotoJitsu]

No. The courses around here available are awesome and offer a wide variety of bikes, skills, etc.

[@dmpriso]

@@MotoJitsu that‘s great but pitbiking imo has the advantage that it allows you to crash. I crashed a lot on it (and never on the street). Don‘t want to convince you of anything but thought it‘s something you could find interesting.

@@MotoJitsu i see, sounds great

[@emanuelgarcia-l8r]

thank you so much for graciously sharing this practical down to earth visual technique..it really makes sense to only see adequately far enough where you can safely go thru to avoid stressing our eyes back and forth..what a relief to realize that we dont force our eyes to see far far ahead to the edge of our sight..its an eye opener for me actually..❤❤

[@MotoJitsu]

:) thanks instagram.com/motojitsuclub/

[@petebusch9069]

I agree, its very important to pay attention to what your doing and not doing with your eyes. If your lines are off or your corner doesn't flow its always vision. Another point, every time you change your focus it takes your brain a few milliseconds to process what you saw so try to only look at what it important.

[@MotoJitsu]

It's nice you've made this video for everyone to get this in their head but, I learned the entry apex exit long before I rode a road bike when I was like 5years old on dirt bikes. My dad was a biker so I probably was ahead of the curve so to speak. Great vid though

[@MotoJitsu]

One thing to learn something, another to practice it at speed on the road vs dirt.

@@MotoJitsu yeah ok I've watched your vids you seem like a good rider, check mine I'm awesome 20 years + surviving big city traffic working on a motorcycle

[@MotoJitsu]

Years riding means nothing in terms of skill or knowledge. I know people who’ve been riding aka have had their license for 50 years but only ride once a week back and forth to work.

@@MotoJitsu sounds like you or I are trying to start an argument lol, I don't really care about other people but it's good you're spreading good and important information about one of the bases of building a solid riding skill base.

[@MotoJitsu]

I'm simply saying "20 years" of riding means nothing in terms of skill or knowledge...too many people believes that automatically means they're Yoda or something...but more people are waking up and realizing you could be riding 1 year and be better than someone with "20 years" of "experience"

This practice for racing is the leading cause of “Target fixation crash” when the riders loss of concentration or fatigue. In the real traffic, touring style , I do practice “aware for all potential hazards” .

[@MotoJitsu]

This has nothing to do with racing

[@ofershragay]

I went to a track training and the instructor said: look 2 seconds ahead. Not easy but this improves the vision

[@MotoJitsu]

Not too helpful in my opinion. Take CA Superbike School and learn from actual instructors

[@E.Valevski]

Great video...but...i don't have that much experience and on my opinion this practice is more for tracks and possibly dangerous for open roads. You don't have controlled and safe environment...cars or motorcycles cutting corners heading on you, car or motorcycle that catch you up and want to pass you, a hole on the road or something else hidden by shadow, animal or man suddenly appear on the road...my point is it is not good idea to be focused only on some point on the road or line and not paying attention what is going around. Yes you will notice the incoming car or other but that time when you are focused just on road until you recognize danger won't be enough. Also in early videos you say that you constantly 'scan' the road, looking far then close...apparently the truth is somewhere in the middle...

[@MotoJitsu]

It's not dangerous and you're not only focused on "some point on the road or line" who said you're not paying attention to anything else? That's what your peripheral vision is for. But you're right, you don't have much experience...get into more classes. instagram.com/motojitsuclub/

[@E.Valevski]

@@MotoJitsu it's not directly mentioned but it's not unusual when focused on one thing to ignore or forget about other...i bet you also had such moments...btw, no bad feelings, just talking...

[@MotoJitsu]

You're not staring at one area because you're moving...so therefore your eyes are always moving. You bet wrong...this has fixed any visual issues I've had..not added any.
