Hes been at it for years so by nature some vids will get buried over time. nonetheless i came to comments to say if that is the case, im glad he did this one! new rider and it helped me grasp the whole clutch control/throttle at low speeds alittle bit better than i previously thought i understood.

    That’s for the refresh. For the next one, it would help to demo from a standing start. It’s easier to turn with consistent movement. The challenge is making a u turn. Moving from a standing start when you can’t initiate a lean. Especially on a typically crowned road that has you going downhill at the start of the turn. I modulate the clutch but it’s tricky, especially given the bars are basically kept full lock. Just a suggestion!

      Bumping this one. U-turn with momentum is something I get used to, but from a full stop it's a challenging one, at least for me.

      Its literally the same, just go between 2k/3k steady trottle rpm (depends on the supersport) and keep it around that, look left or right (twisting ure neck is the key, find a looking point) release the clutch to its breaking point and go you are from standing still a u turn

      @@jonathandaniel7321My first bike is a Ninja 400. I got to the point where uturning in 1.5 spots is easy.
      Just got a R7, and I’m struggling to do 2.25 spots.
      I think it has to do with the aggressive posture of the supersports vs normal sport bikes.
      Especially in right turns, if I dont pay attention, I forget to do the “over compensate wrist” thing he mentions and as my wrist bumps the tank, it cuts power right when I’m trying to ask for power. Feels sketch.
      Im sure with practice it will come

    Thanks for the great instruction. I think you could go tighter on some of those, but you looked like you didn't want to accidentally drop your buddy's bike. Point made once you were doing those last few tight ones. I love this stuff, but I'm a bit anxious. Been adjusting to slow speed maneuvers on my sport touring bike, coming from a smaller ADV... It's challenging!
