      Hey motojitsu I just watched 100 points of grip, he talked about how it might not be best to flick the bike in because you don’t want to add lean angle points quickly the same way not to brake or add throttle quickly. How would u compare this method to flicking the bike in too fast?

      Dude, this video is two years old, .... and your stuff keeps popping up because I'm liking and downloading. Don't want to lose it. So, I watch others too, .... and they compliment your techniques ( but your explanation is better). First time I heard you say outside, inside, and then outside, .... it was so mechanical when I started it. To me it was to much effort until I realized the application. The tighter the curve, the greater the application. The Air Force had a mandatory bike class when I served, ... but you are making me to want to find Jesus on my motorcycle, to find a class to teach me more refined techniques.

    When I was racing dirt bikes I trained with Gary Semiks and he always taught me to focus on 2 to 4 seconds ahead of myself.especially at speed. Because the faster you go the more active your eyes have to be. This translated to my street bike riding and I've found on the street ya have to be planning/ looking farther down the road head movement and eyes are so important.

    I’m not trying to be the fastest… I just like the feeling of flowing through the corners… Constantly breaking hard or accelerating hard is not my idea of fun… These tips are perfect for racing and lowering lap times but that’s not my goal…
    It’s much more of a squid move to pin it on every straightaway and out of every corner… I love the feeling of leaning and carrying some speed (within reason) through the turns and don’t plan on changing that…
    I’m not saying you’re wrong I’m just saying that there’s more than one way to enjoy motorcycle riding other than the technical way…

    • @MrCharaf45
      @MrCharaf45 2 роки тому

      Totally agree with this comment ! Squids are the ones who can’t lean and carry speed into corners !
      Squids are scared and have no skills to corner with their knee down !
      All the pleasure is in cornering !
      So slow cornering is definitely useless !

    Tip 4: Think ahead
    In the part where you show a planned route to be tight on the left before the blind right because “there's no oncoming cars” is a big mistake. In the time it takes to move to that position, there is a good chance a car will come around the corner. Then where will you go?
    Much better to plan for the possible oncoming and position accordingly.

    • @nateriver5114
      @nateriver5114 2 роки тому +4

      i think he didn't mean to go all the way to the left but to the left of your lane. as soon as you see oncoming traffic then you can easily go of the throttle and reposition yourself more to the middle of your lane. and he only meant the closest corner because we can look far enough ahead to assume that corner will be empty when we pass it. the next corners remain unsave.

    It's not so easy. Have to make this kind of path analysis very fast, and as you said you have to be very quick with the eyes. But the more I practice at it the more automatic it becomes. Bravo!

    I like the point about scanning, I find it's v easy to get obsessed by your limit point so you look like more like someone in Star Trek staring at a far galaxy rather than an alert rider, and subsequently fail to notice the pothole in the middle distance. It does take constant practice flicking your focus between the two but avoids scary back wheel hops. Brilliant vids, you probably save more lives than a paramedic

    Practicing braking saved my life literally last week. I was going fast but wasn't focusing and left it late to slow down. Luckily there was a turnoff in the middle of the corner. I straightened my bike up and progressively braked and I stopped just before the berm and didn't crash or drop the bike. I was going like 47mph into a rather sharp turn. Realistically I could've sent it but it would be out my comfort zone to do that.

When I do corners fast, I scan and try to focus on staying smooth, but riding as hard as we did yesterday required an entirely different skillset using my brakes prior to the curves rather than my usual "downshifting" / engine torque... Great video !

    Love your content MotoJitsu, I just recently got off my learners and got my licence for my bike. I own a Kawasaki Ninja 400 2022, very light bike it's about 157kg kerb weight think that's about 350 lbs roughly. Absolutely right about cornering, once I learned to look where I wanted to end up everything came naturally even doing things like counterbalancing the bike during slow but tight turns. There's a hospital a couple of suburbs over near where I live (I'm in NSW, Australia on the Central Coast) and the corner to come out of the carpark is a tight left like a hairpin. Your content is about generally improving rider safety which is excellent, your concern for the well-being of riders is genuine.
    We have a similar version of bike testing to what you ladies and gents do over in AZ in my home state of NSW. We do rider education, road position, hazards, poor predictability of car drivers (especially people who drive BMW SUVs) and what to do when conditions change suddenly. I love my bike, I'm not going back to mainly driving a car. Bikes are more sustainable, they use less fuel and have less impact wear on the road. Thanks for great content.

    The trees are blocking the last part of the turn. I live on a island in the Philippines where they do alot of nickel mining and large trucks always cross the center line here. The tree blocks the last part of the turn and you would be safer ending up on outside of turn to avoid getting ran over by a dump truck. Turns are very sharp here and some are very steep. Best case slow down and be aware of trucks and other vehicles which often cross the centerline.

    Autocrossing cars taught me a few things... You can only do 100% of 1 thing at a time - stop, turn or accelerate - 100% brake, then 100% turn, then 100% accelerate - as an extreme example of course but ties into the point of this video. Using the brake hard and accelerate out method, I've left other riders in the dust on corners when I've felt like I was not pushing at all as I do consider myself a beginner rider, but with the autocross background.
    I've also learned this - you can only go as fast into and out of a corner as related to how far you can see around the corner. The less you can see around the turn, the slower you should be going, the farther you can see the faster you can go

    You are absolutely right! I’ve been riding for 50 years this year and I never cared about mid corner speed. It’s all about having a little fun in between the straight-aways. This is true regardless of the type of bike you’re riding. I am the rare breed of rider that appreciates the attributes that diffent types of bikes bring to the table. I have a 62 Harley Davidson Glide, a Suzuki GSX600R and a dual sport. Obviously the GSXR corners better but my Hog is very comfortable on the iron butt rides but it would be unrideable in the dirt, you see where I’m going with this. Ride YOUR bike, don’t try to keep up with anyone, just have some fun on your timetable, if your friends are dicks about it, maybe ya need a new batch of friends.

    When do you put your weight on the counterside, and when do you lean in with your upper body? Is there like a minimum speed you need to have before you lean in?
    Sometimes when i ride the mountainroads and there are those 180° turns I don't really know if I have to lean in or counter lean.
    Is there maybe a video to that? Thank you!

      You can lean at about any speed. If you are sub-20mph I'd probably be putting weight on the outside peg. I think probably making sure you are providing good smooth throttle inputs, staying light on the bars, and keeping your eyes in the right direction will help you out most there.

    Mid corner speed is a detail I practice when the conditions allow it. For me it lets me refine another aspect of riding. That said, I am talking about increments here not "let's see if I can touch stuff down so I can pose at Starbucks".

    Always good stuff ! I find one of my bikes a lot easier going down-hill in the twisties, it only has one front-disk and drum (W650) but feels more controlled. The other is a Yam TR1 981cc V-twin, twin-disk ,drum-rear . I think it's a 'weight-thing' , but maybe I'm riding them differently (one faster ). I will take 'notes' when the weather picks-up .

    Simple to understand harder to execute for most. very well explained. "Lean for the shortest amount of time"(I thought leaning longer is cool my bad).

    These are advanced skills great for track riding. But fast in fast out with trail braking on the street maybe not the best idea with unfamiliar roads or conditions (surface debris) can change.

    @westondifranco9313 2 роки тому

    Im the same way. On the street I wanted to lean more and more. Then I think of my wife and kids getting the call I got hit by semi after I dumped the bike in a corner. It really puts things in perspective.

    Hi. Im fairly new rider ( 6 months with my unrestricted licence inthe UK) - 2 years on a 120cc bike which was fine, but post full licence, I'm riding a 995cc Triumph Tiger. I love it but one thing I am really not confident about is cornering. The Tiger is top heavy - to the point where even the usual tricks I seen you in your videos won't work if I drop it - and I do a lot of country riding so if no one is around to help me pick it up if I drop it, I SOL. That makes me nervous cornering. I dont care about going super fast around corners, I just need confidence taking tight turns at mid to low speed and knowing I wont drop it. I've watched you throw around the Beamer but I cant build myself up to attempting leaning the bike over that much. Especially since the bike naturally wants to be upside down. I could throw my 125cc bike around and hav e confidence in counter leaning to do that, but this bike I dont. I guess I'm not looking for advice, you've certainly covered this in other videos, but I can't bring my self to push that hard incase it goes tits up. And, in a country that is plaged with narrow streets and tiny roundabouts, its a real deficiency in my riding - not having confidence to take tight slow speed turns without pretty much crawling and staying upright.

    It's all in the freaking braking, I've myself came to that conclusion also,but i don't know how i can i work on it ,given that i ride on gravel roads,if i push it too much i might end up below the road.i have mastered mid corner speed but it doesn't mean shit if i start breaking to early into the turn.

    Of course leaning means more risks, however in my opinion you can't really learn without slightly push your limit, and breaking hard/accelerating strong will favour bike power instead of skills, incl taking the right curve
