This not a slide & pivot, its an Italian Job with a Tim Horton..... great video, thank you.
Great comment, Jason!
You are a Canadian, are you?
@@rockpatrickjoly People from all over the world are watching Ryan :D

“You will low side the bike, thats not such a big deal”... That’s why I love riding Adventure Bikes!
I thought after 48 years of riding I knew what I was doing.I have been practicing this maneuver every night after work with my new Africa Twin.Its not as easy as you make it look but I am getting a lot better. It has become fun and challenging. Thank You.I guess you can teach an old dog new tricks LOL.Thanks for posting.
Do u have dct?
Your camera angles, filming and perspectives, are really great! Thanks for the effort you put in to this.
You’re videos are straightforward and precise. No fluff. I like that.
You're welcome!
I am learning this and i figured out its way easier to stay in vertical control of the bike by pushing your body weight on the brake side foot peg, if you you put your body weight on the pivoting leg there is a bigger chance the bike will slide away from you.. No one mentions this in these how to videos. Hope it helps, keep practising.
I needed to learn this, like 40 years ago!
Just want to say I love your stuff and enjoy learning things I didn’t do well in my 20s (now 60). I practice the throttled clutch release slide, 2nd half of the turn, on my near dirt driveway with my non DCT Africa Twin every time I take it out!
Another great video Bret. Glad to see you ride on Anakee 3's as well. Such a great tire.
Another great video from Bret and the team.....good to see the Africa Twin get in the vid.
Yeah - We love the Africa Twin.

Outstanding lesson and good pointers on the nuances and gotchas! Those boxer motors make precise foot placement a must!
That was hella smooth. Nicely done sir.👍
Also really appreciate the heads up on high sides being "bad". Who knew? 😎
Another great instruction by Bret
riding a motorcycle looks so easy, then actually doing it you realize how hard it really it.
its not just strength, it's commitment, quick thinking, understanding terrain, agility to shift weight fast, and doing things in the right oder
I need to learn this. Thanks for breaking it down. Great video!
You are really good at this Bret.
Another great video! I always look forward to these!
Thumbs up for Africa Twin DCT!
Indeed!

...you do make it look easy! Thanks for sharing!
Excellent video! I love the way you break down the techniques into smaller activities that you can work on. Straight forward, simple and makes you feel as if anyone can do it. Also, love the way the video was shot. Thank you for contributing your knowledge to the motorcycle community
Thanks, Brian!
These kids today with their youtubes have it so easy. Back in the day, we had to invent our own skillz. I died several times and can't even count the number of times I was mortally wounded but survived trying to learn some new riding technique.
how awesome, man! I always wanted to learn this maneuver now I will study it. thank you so much friend !!
amazing as always
Thanx for teaching this...i got this when u came to india 🤘🏻
wow such a great explanation. THANK YOU!!!
cool music and cool technique, thanks!
A luxury motorcycle deserves the five stars
Company thanks and appreciation
Good luck
Your friend Ahmed from Palestine in Morocco
Thanks for the DCT tips for us few out there ! Great video !

Thanks for including details of using a DCT.

And, Bret. It looks cool doing it! Nice video.
Glad to see a new video!
L O V E that you are now offering modifiers for DCT. Awesome Brett.
Yes Brett, so much Love from Sweden, practicing this tomorrow on my DCT on tkc80s with car spikes on the slightly snow covered fields here in stockholm in the morning!

Thanks for doing these video's mate
Pretty great explanation, also works really well with just about any bike.. especially in single track dirt biking
Does a 150cc 4 stroke engine capable of turning using power to break loose the rear wheel?
nice one-- thanks Bret. You foreshadowed this in one of your videos from India, but that was featuring the junior wizard rider on a dirtbike-- thanks for tuning this technique lesson toward us older folks on bigger ADV bikes : )
That was always the plan... old people on adv bikes are my people :-)
Excellent, tes conseils sont toujours au top !! J'essaye lors de ma prochaine sortie off road, la 4 eme a vrai dire depuis que je roule a moto, et oui je suis un novice.
awesome as always, thanks.
Just Amazing
Brilliant mate.
I wish I'd gotten into ADV bikes long ago instead of just plain street bikes. Better late than never, but now I'm seeing what kind of fun I've missed out on!
slide pivot wheelie - even more fun
Nice vid . Will definitely come in handy
Great advice great channel!
Nice air! You look so cool doing this slide. I can do this on my bicycle.
Lo difícil será cuando quieras hacer patinar la rueda trasera jaja!!
Smashing video again! Love it.
Thanks, Nick!
Super explanation. Love the clarity and the angles. Great teaching. Instant sub on 1st video I've seen on your channel
Awesome, thank you!
He is a natural with teaching riding techique. nice.
Thanks, Tim!
Great explanation!

Verry good advice!
Great advice! Easier than it seems... just practice.
Pretty awesome video!

Hello, thank you for the Spanish subtitles, cordial greetings from the island of Tenerife in the Canary Islands, very good videos.
Thanks so much! I just subscribed
Love your videos, very informative. If only I wasn't so afraid of dropping my new bike :)
Perfect technic in a dead end road, but not worked in very tight road and rocky terrain. Good video anyway, i put my thumbs up, good job! Waiting for another new uploads!
Thanks for the feedback, Mada!
Hi Brett, fantastic series! Wish the trails over here in the UK were half as good and accessible as those in the US! Can I be cheeky and request more videos for those of us using DCTs! Cheers! Keep up the great vids.

아프리카트윈 dct 설명 감사합니다~!
So Cool
I really want to try this now!! :)
Thanks for another great video!!!
Damn, I LOVE your gloves... unfortunately, I don't have 5he possibilities to buy them!!
Go job, great videos!!!
Kudos for your channel Bret, between you and FortNine and Revzilla (and all the other little guys) I learn so much. I've timidly attempted a half-donut but haven't yet gotten the gonads to try a slide then a donut on my Africa Twin -- waiting for my crash bars, because I can guarantee you the last part of your video will come true (I WILL drop the bike!)
Fortnine is incredible
Thanks! Dietrich from Germany.
You are welcome, Dietrich!
Great stuff - thank you!
You're welcome!
Cool !
Excellent video (as usual). I bought the same gloves, so at least I look like I can do this kind of thing when I park outside Starbucks. :)
LOL
Nicely done on the DCT 👍
Thanks, Carl! We love the Africa Twin!

“We do this with power...”
[CRF250L has left the chat]
With a CRF250L you can just lift it up and turn it lol
Oh quit i like the crf250l. 😆
My crf has plenty of tq, im running 13/48 for trail riding instead of the stock 14/40 😅
Do this every day on my 250L it’s like 320lbs hell you can do this on a scooter
i like it 👌
Gracias
De nada!
De nada
Not as easy as it looks but I'm having a ton of fun trying to learn it!!!
Wow!
One day i'll ride like you! Hopefully...
This guy is just giving names to everything we used to do as kids on our bikes lol.
So How do you like the african twin ? I am in business trip in Shenzhen China but I am from Florida USA and this type of video bring a smile to my face
We love the Africa Twin!
I love the DCT AT
I saw something pretty cool. There’s a new Chinese bike company called COVE they made a 450 Paris Dakar type bike and it has ABS, but it automatically disables the ABS below 10 miles an hour.
It seems like everybody complains about the DCT or the traction control or the ABS in dirt come up if they just allowed you to slide it spinning the wheel below one or 2 miles, an hour, or lock up the brakes below 10 miles an hour you still have some of the functionality of locking up or sliding the wheel in dirt without having to worry about it.
thank you for korean subtitles. 감사합니다 한국어 자막 만들어주셔서 도움이 많이 됩니다
I can’t wait till I’m able to do this
Nice
Note in ur examples the bike is initially leaning when u first lock the rear wheel, this helps to get 90 deg. If u dont initially lean u can typically get only 45 deg
I find with the Tiger's, it's easier to leave the traction and ABS set to off-road. It still allows you to lock the rear wheel but the traction let's the wheel slide just the right amount so you can't over do it.
Thanks for spanish subtittle!!!😘
Your one thumbs down must be an old girlfriend who hates your success and that your still having fun. Enjoy your vids and simple, well thought out instructions.
LOL
Didnt know there was a name for this , its just somthing i did to turn around with limited space. guess you just figure this out after years of riding, nice tut, any way , very good.
As a citizen of country where people drive on the left side of the road, I don't think this technique would on those roads because you'll have put down the same foot that is used for rear brakes.
Tried this today. I got the slide-stop 90 degree pivot down pretty well, but can’t get my KLR to spin the rest of the way around for take off. Great demo though! And it was loads of fun to learn what I could.
Lean the bike more at full lock (creating thus a smaller patch for traction) and try again. Otherwise you need to rev a bit more.
Maku sure u turned off traction control
Hello gun man
@@ab-tn4yp KLR... Traction Control... hahaha! Good one!
Yeah, I've tried to do this turn on my KLR but the bike just doesn't want to. Maybe it's too tall. I'm going to try more later today
How do you turn off the ABS in your GS 1200, it’s a model 2008 right? I am trying to practice this
This one an advance technique... challenging
