Decreasing Motorcycle U Turns
The most feared motorcycle maneuver seems to be U-Turns.
Here is a simple U turn practice pattern to use, when space is limited.
Just set up three different sizes and continue until you can complete each one.
This can be set up with very little cones or just use chalk to mark your measurements.
Enjoy

thanks for watching.
Thank you so much for this video. Love the idea of setting up multiple U turns. Will work on it this weekend.
That's great. it easier in a lot with lines. We do it often because we don't have to keep setting up a new u-turn.
Thanks for watching and have fun.
Thank You, That was great. Rich from Smithtown LI ,NY
Thanks for watching Richard, I'n thrilled that you liked it.
Thanks for the training.
Our pleasure Frank, Thanks for watching, we really appreciate it.
Union break....LOL!! great video
Tell me about it...He came just in time.
Great tutorial boots & jeans
Thanks so much, HondaHarleyGurl...I appreciate that.
Liked the setup, great tips, thanks!
Glad it was helpful! Yeah the set up is super easy. Not a lot of cones needed, we just used plenty so the camera can pick up it them.
Thanks for watching.
Very good. thanks for posting.
Thanks for watching,
Thanks again
Always welcome. And thank you too.
Informative vids... Thanks for sharing.
Your welcome Jasper, Thanks for watching.
Drop, gas, & go! Simply said...Thx!
Thanks Throttle, we appreciate you watching.
Excellent job; keep up the good work!
Thanks for watching Nick.
Good Video All Ways Can Learn Come Thing New.
Thanks Derrick...That's exactly how we feel. The learning process never stops, It may pause a bit, but never stops.
Great video!
Thanks I appreciate that.
I needed this. 🙏🏾
Glad to know that it may help.
Great video I ride a f6b and watching you I need more practice.
Hey Colleen this is Rich, The F6b is an amazing bike. I wanted to get one before I purchased my full wing. Kake beat me to the punch and she absolutely love it. We try to get in small practice in at least once a week, even if its for 1/2 hour.
Thanks for watching.
Great job
Thanks TUCKANROLLE, Appreciate the compliment.
Love your videos!!
Glad you like them Bikeanglo. We appreciate the love. Stay safe
I am very serious about doing this what you teach. You look like a Seasoned Pro! For real, some riding My Brother.
Hey Chris Thanks for the kind words.
The best advice I could give is...Just get started. Find a small lot and start with large circles (30 feet or more). Then as you get better make them tighter. We try to get in at least 2 practices a week, even if its only for a half hour. And of course turn your head and look where you want to go.
Thanks again for your support and comments.
Hey now Rich and Kake back in effect.
Hey Tony...Yup we are back on dem 2's.
Cruise was a blast, I almost cried when it was over.
Very cool
Thank you sir. Just wanted to show what can be done in a small lot.
@@BootsandJeansRiders 👍 something I need to work on . Sometimes I do go other look like I just started riding .
Excellent tutorial, will get my practice in as soon as the weather is right. Thanks again for the instructions.
Thank you. Yeah..get it in. Weather have been good here in Northern Cali.
Thanks for checking in and commenting.
What a great set up thanks for sharing.
Thanks Jimmie, makes easy to do sharp u turns without resetting the cones.
Thanks for watching.
Boots and Jeans Riders I look forward to adding that configuration to my practice days. Thanks again and ride safe 😉
Great video and a good reminder that we all need to practice
Thanks I appreciate that. We try to get in at least 2 a week, even if it only for 10 minutes. Fortunately we are having good weather so I can practice and go for a ride afterwards.
Hi guys. Another fun and informative video. Nice riding Rich! So cool that gentleman stopped to watch. New friends are always a good thing.
Thanks.
I thought hey was the school security about to ask us to leave. Turns out he wants to learn. Great guy, we traded numbers and will practice together when he returns at the end of the month.
Again thanks for watching.
Yeah, I thought that was definitely cool!
Good information, thanks for posting!
Thank you Doug. This was a easy set up. Not many cones needed, I only used that many so they can be seen on camera.
Man you making it look easy lol! Thank you I need to practice more.
Yeah Jarhead we try to get in at least practice session a week two if we not riding. Even if its only one hour at a time, sneak one in.
Thanks for watching.
Nice video. Really appreciate it. Can't wait until it warms up here so I can practice
Man I know can't wait. Must be torture up there...
Hope you have an early spring.
You did very well on the big bike buddy 😃👍
Thanks Motogspot, Yeah it is a BIG monster lol.
this is why I try to get at least one PLP a week,
Can you please explain 1) friction zone and 2)front/rear breaking when performing u-turns? Thanks!
Sure Ebony...Great Questions
The friction zone is when you slowly began to release the clutch and the bike start to move , giving power to the rear wheel. As long as you don't fully release the clutch...you are in the friction zone and you can (with practice) continue to give throttle and your speed will not increase.
As for braking...Great Question...
During the turn any braking will make the bike want to stand up. However, the rear brake slows down the bike but not as much as the front brake. Also when using the rear brake, the front of the bike /forks won't dip as much therefore eliminating a forced pull down, causing a bike drop. Yes you can use the rear brake through out the turn and it won't have a major affect on the turn (depending on how tight you are tuning) I use the rear brake to slow down the bike, once I start the turn, I release the brake and rely on the friction zone and throttle to control the speed. However in tighter turns...I use the rear brake though the completion of the turn,
but not in all cases. Hope that answers your questions.
Lol, your #1 quote...you want to hit the cone or do you want to hit the curb.
Yeah buddy...I'll take the cones any day.
Good stuff man. Good stuff!
Thanks G...Keep Winginit!
You looking good rollin' that DCT.
I started at 18. Aim small hit small.
My street is 18 or run over the mailbox
That's the idea (Aim small hit small). Or run over the mailbox LOL!
thanks for watching, I appreciate it.
Heyyy Kake, I see you holding the camera.
Heyyyy. Yes I'm behind the scene today.
like 19
nice❤❤❤
Thanks buddy, I appreciate you watching, and commenting.
Really great video. I keep thinking too hard about this 18' I think. I don't think I'm going fast enough. I can do 20' sometimes but it's not comfortable. Is it really just head and eyes?
Hey Brent, Hey don't over think it just do it. Yes it is just head and eyes,alone with friction zone and little rear brake pressure. Remember, the tighter the turn the more you will need to lean the bike. to learn your lean angle, start with a large circle and gradually decrease the circle until you scrape the pegs. Then lean no further.
Hey Rich
What speed are you at when you do the u turns
Hey Marc...I'm around 8-10 mph.
@@BootsandJeansRiders Thanks Rich. As always hope you and cake stay safe out there.
Do you use the rear brake On the U-turns? Thanks!
Yes I do! IT give the most control without fear of dropping the bike. No front braking in slow maneuvers.
@@BootsandJeansRiders Thanks! Keep up the great videos.
@@BootsandJeansRiders your video is very helpful in that you give it from the riders point of view. I’ve had trouble on U-turns for two main reasons I think. First I notice you turn your head and eyes. That is probably my biggest problem. Second, I have fear of dropping the bike on a small U-turn. I really don’t think it will drop, but it’s just the fear that it won’t drop that is my problem.
