Why Kneedown, Foot out, and Nuetral BP in Supermoto!

Just giving the why, advantages, and disadvantages of the different body positions in supermoto! Hope this helps. If you can make it out to the school we'd love to have you!

The best advice ever. Lucky American mates who have the chance to attend your lessons in person.

Such a cool and concise advice Brian!! I’ll be going in pretty soon !!!

Yep. You only need to look at S1GP to see all styles. Old guard like Chareyre favour foot-out but new fast guys like Cortes are knee-down a lot and quite a few are neutral - even MRS. There's a huge upset in balance when you move on a SM - all that travel makes a big shift which slows you down I think. My crappy times were always better neutral, with a little knee (more head) coming out of long sweeps -just to get the gas on earlier.

Is there a traction disadvantage from raised foot pegs? With neutral / upper body leaned off position, there isn't enough room for the foot + footpegs at speed. I have to take my foot off the pegs, or the side of the boot and peg scrape the tarmac. The tires feel like they have grip remaining, there's just stuff in the way of carrying more speed pushing 60 degrees :-/

Love to make it out to ride one day

Can I ask you if it’s worth if getting a supermoto? I’ve been really interested in one but I just can’t seem to pull the trigger. I’ve got three bikes right now, Sportster S, Z H2 and TNT135
