    Love it! Riding through spaces like that can be scary for a rider who doesn't understand these concepts or is not comfortable with them yet. When I was riding motors in DC I did that kind of stuff EVERY chance I got even if it was unnecessary for where I was going. By staying in that "practice frame of mind" and looking for every opportunity to practice something, even on duty, I was able to sharpen my skills much better on the motor. I still do it to this very day, riding places I don't need to just for practice while riding my personal bike. ( Example: Dirt paths in Pooler parks)

    Greetings from Trinidad in the Caribbean. Lane splitting is isn't legal here but it is tolerated. I ride a shadow 1100, no saddle bags but i do have highway pegs, and many of my friends ride various cruisers. Daily commute sees us lane splitting for about an hour on a half each way. Its exactly as you say, modulate the grey area, modulate the throttle and feather the rear brake. Basic rule of thumb we worked out: collapse the highway pegs, if the handlebars can fit, you're halfway home. Keep your clutch level covered at all times while you navigate that tight space and and be prepared to use the rear brake more than the front. That rear brake keeps you from shooting forward faster than you'd like and even if you give it too much throttle that clutch modulation keep that power exactly where you need it. One thing we like to do when we practice is the slow race last man over the finish line is the winner. That helps us get the muscle memory needed for that clutch + rear bake + throttle dance

    Thanks Rob ! As a kid, while riding a dirt bike through the woods , I tried squeezing between two small diameter trees. Well , my front brake lever hit the right sapling, and down I went, lol . Fast forward years later same thing happened to a friend of mine ,but instead of hitting his break lever on a tree, he hit it on one of those 3 foot flexible lane dividers we have here in the Brooklyn battery tunnel .. Luckily he didn't go down, Oops 😅

    Nice day in Texas so I thought I’d go out and practice uturns. Pretty bummed though because I’m pretty sure I toasted my clutch. I think I’m riding my back brake too much. 😢 I’m looking forward to you coming to Kerrville, Texas. That’s about 4.5 hours from me here in the DFW area. I’m still gonna try and make it if I can afford a new clutch also. 😅~ Wayne KX8Z ua-cam.com/video/GWGCt3A7ldI/v-deo.htmlsi=1lk0aWJSoytqkSea
