This quick video covers two techniques that any rider can use to improve both your confidence and bike placement on downhill or certain long, fast entries that don't allow for full brake pressure. @gasonbikeup-motorcycles produces videos to show how the same techniques that are used by MotoGP and World Superbike riders can translate to all riders, track or street. If you're interested in road racing, track days, or simply how to get the most out of your sport bike this video is for you! You'll learn from Eric Wood, the head coach for the oldest motorcycle track training school in the United States. In this video, we discuss a common problem that affects both top racers and street riders when they need to stop the bike as quickly as they can. The solutions to better braking may surprise you!
