Adventure off-road motorcycle riding requires skills of balance & counterbalance for beginner and experienced, along with a keen understanding as to how the bike will react in ever changing terrain and conditions.
These beginner adventure motorcycle exercises take the rider through a sequence of active riding transitions and different riding positions. Without ever leaving 1st gear, these delibrate movements will teach balance, stability, and bike movements that will synch rider with bike in a whole new way.
Learning the tipping point of the bike in a controlled environment allows for safe and effective skill development.

These agility & skills courses/exercises are designed to help develop the fundamental riding skills of clutch, throttle, brake and active balance by the rider.
Precise practice in coordinating these techniques can lead to instinctive/reflexive actions by the rider and allow for more precise control of the motorcycle.
Mastery of these techniques allows the rider to more smoothly transition the bike when cornering as well as being able to react reflexively when encountering unexpected changes in surface traction in off road conditions.
Depending on your skill level, you may want to make the courses larger to feel more comfortable while you develop these skills.
Performing these exercises carries a risk of dropping your motorcycle which may result in damage to you or your motorcycle. Always be sure that your bike has the proper crash guards and that you also wear the appropriate protective gear.

Great content, I have been following for a while. This video is definitely one of my favourites. It is a shame I don’t have a piece of land to practice but I’ll give a try on a car park. Please keep publishing exercises like this
Thank you Raul for the great feedback. Good Luck with your practice and we will keep them coming 👍
@@advmotoskillz looking forward the new episodes
Excellent adventure ride class. So needed when encounter a situation when you have to prove your balance. 👍👌
I Have not seen the likes of these exercises to provide added confidence and stability in riding. Excellent content brother.
Glad you like them!
This is gold! Thanks for sharing!
Glad you like it 👍🏻.
Nice one lads, exactly what I was looking for. This is what TH-cams all about!
Glad it helped!
Love the videos you making and great teaching points like the squeeze (clamp) picture. Thanks heaps, also looking forward to the new website. I watch the video's and go out and practice once a week. Confidence in handling my KTM 790 Adv has gone up.
Glad you like them! It great to hear back from people that they are improving their "skillZ"!!! The website will be up soon and we are excited for that!
Great channel. Why is there never a dry lake bed around when I need one.
Muchas gracias por compartir, excelente video
De nada. Buena suerte con tu entrenamiento.
To the point videos 🔥🔥 great content 👍🏻very helpful
Appreciate it!🙌
Another great video! I'm a little scared about trying last exercises, but hope to be able to perform!
Thanks! Just take it one practice session at a time. Learning these skills is a marathon (never a sprint). Keep us posted on your progress 🙌

Glad to see you are enjoying our videos!!!
As always top video
Thanks Peter
Thank You!!
You're welcome!
It's amazing video. I like it very much 👍👍👍
Thank you! It is a great warm up exercise. It teaches not only how to balance/counterbalance the bike, but also how to be gentle on the throttle and friction zone to keep the bike moving.
Excellent
Thank you so much 🤝 Glad you liked it!
This is one I’m definitely going to try !
I’m for example lefthanded and for some reason doing something with the bike from the right is ”difficult” for me. E.g enter the bike from the right is...😵
These are great foundation exercises that helped me to become better at both sides, too. To begin, practice all the left side ones first to be comfortable with them. Then after, begin to try the right ... soon you will be going back and forth with practice. Good Luck and let us know how it goes
Great content
🤝 Thank you! We are releasing a new video later today. It will be tips on things I've learned on how to rie the GS Garage. I will cover topics like friction zone and line selection.
Detailed 👍🥇
Thanks!!!
Let’s go put this at practice mate…👊🏿👊🏿👊🏿
I’m always up for some cone drillZ! Let’s go!👍🏻
Great!!
So glad you enjoy! Thank you
Thanks for these videos. As a long time road rider, I've progressed from being pathetically useless off road to marginally mediocre thanks to these videos. 👍👍👍👍
😂👍 Glad to help! Great to hear that you are getting in the practice. Have you checked out any of our blog posts fro more training ideas? advmotoskills.com/
@@advmotoskillz I have now! Thanks for another great resource. I'm lucky enough to be able to work an off road section into my daily commute so I'm getting the practice in every day.
Excellent 😊
Thanks 😊Hope you get some practice in, and let us know how you do.
neat video bikes skills looked cool
🤝Thank you! Learning how to keep the bike balanced with your body positioning and keeping smooth inputs with the friction zone/throttle makes all the difference when it comes time for off-road riding.
Looks vewy doable.. Keep it up .. D
Thank you, I will
Ya estuve mirando en Google maps en los alrededores de mi casa donde conseguir un espacio abierto que sea de césped o tierra, he comprado algunas metros de cinta de seguridad y unos platillos chatos amarillos que serán los conos.
Creo que estoy lista para empezar a practicar 💪 voy a tener mi propio circuito 🏁🤩💃🏍️💨
Muy de principiante entusiasta 🤭😛
¡Eso es fantástico! Uno de mis favoritos es el slalom de cono simple.
I have been trying your practice sessions for ayear now and is sad i have not seen any new videos!!! what happened to you guys?
Thank you for reaching out to us and leting us know you have enjoyed our videos. We have pivoted from TH-cam the past year and focused on other projects. We have started a blog advmotoskills.com/ that has some more training ideas and other fun tpoics.
@@advmotoskillz amazing!!! Thank you so much for your response.
Joining now !
Great stuff! How big is a circles?
Not sure... I did the figure 8's just to show the riding and the body positions for the video. When first practicing, it is good to try to just go in a straight line. As you become comfortable, then try some big turns as you ride in each position. This is really good practice to work on balance/counterbalance and momentum control (friction zone/throttle control skillZ.
@@advmotoskillz I've done my circles about 5m in diameter. But I'm comfy only with all hands and legs on the bike. The ground is not smooth so for practicing all this excercises I'll make a bigger circles, once again many thanks for your vids 💪
@@advbikejunky A 5-meter circle is as good as it gets! Thank you for letting us know you are enjoying the videos. We have a new one dropping tomorrow.
What is the spacing of the cones?
We did not measure the cone distance for this exercise. (I would guess about 40 meters/130 feet). The cones were put there so the drone pilot would have reference points/boundaries to know where the rider would be. This exercise is meant to be performed in a "freestyle" flow... If the rider is new to off road riding, just going in a straight line while making the body position changes is challenging enough. With experience and confidence then adding in some large turns/swerves adds to the challenge of bike balance/counterbalance skillZ. We did the figure 8's to try to get all of it on film in a somewhat easy to follow manner.

is this begginer skills? wow for me they look stunt advanced but i will try them, im comming from a naked bike to a "adventure" touring bike
Welcome to the adventure bike riding family!!
Test out how movements feel with the bike on the center stand just to get your body used to the action.
When you feel ready to practice on the move, find a safe, open space and only try the moves in a straight line. Just pick a couple exercises to practice each session. With practice, your balance and comfort will improve and you can add on more positions.
The learning process was the same for us all in the beginning, so we understand! Come back and let us know how your training comes along.
As a side note, these exercises will really pay off when you are off-roading because sometimes unseen bumps, rocks, etc can cause a hand or foot to get knocked out of position.
@@advmotoskillz thank you very much 🤗
looks like circus skills to me m8. but what do i know? i've only been riding motorcycles 60 years..................... newbie
👏👌👍
🤝👍
do you have shares in a motorcycle bodywork company??. or work on a commision basis at the local fracture clinic??
So the rider is not using his breaks at all, only clutch and throttle?
Thanks for the question Markos,
In these exercises the brakes can be used as needed. In all of the riding positions the front brake will be available as the right hand never leaves the handle bars during the exercises.
In some riding positions and movements the rear brake will not be available and only the front brake can be applied. This will give the rider experience in applying the front brake with gentle pressure to avoid the front end diving.
This exercise sequence also a great opportunity to practice friction zone and throttle control inputs.
The Beginner Balance/Counterbalance exercises can be adapted to any skill level for these reasons.
@@advmotoskillz thank you sir! I am practicing because in July I will be in the mountains of Crete and there are great rides up there!!
How many years (decades) does "beginner" takes ? :-)
🎓Learning is a lifelong process for sure. The important thing is to practice at your own pace & comfort level. Start with just a few of the moves until you feel comfortable before adding on more. It's definately a marathon and not a sprint!
Have fun with your training 👍
I'd like to try these exercises, but i am too much worried to fall..
It is important to start at your own pace & comfort level. Start out with only lifting left arm while riding in a straight line, then progress to the other exercises when ready. That being said, ADV riding does involve falling and getting stuck ... so be sure to wear All The Gear All The Time! Best of luck to you in your training
@@advmotoskillz Thank you so much for you support and advices. I am going to practice soon. Keep up the good work. You're the best.
What is the purpose of sitting on knees?
Thanks for asking!
The purpose of the exercise to allow the rider to become familiar how their motorcycle balance point changes as the rider moves. It is not about how to ride in any one position.
The rider learns subtle counterbalance movements needed to maintain balance and keep the motorcycle on line.
A part of off-road ADV riding is that there are times the motorcycle’s suspension undergoes unexpected changes do to unseen dips or obstacles. A rider who has experience with quickly making counterbalance movements is better able to keep the motorcycle upright.
Hope that helps
@@advmotoskillz Thanks for the answer. You are one of the most helpful channel I've ever seen. Keep it up.
@@unbendible 🙌
Looks very hard to do. I'll First follow beginner courses. I would be worry ti crash my motorbike
Beginner courses are a fantastic idea. Start slowly and progress at your own pace.
One expert starts walking around the bike keeping it at the balance point, they all start doing it. Funny
That isn't offroading it's trick riding.
It may look tricky, but it is a great way to learn balance & counterbalance skills for beginner adventure motorcycle riders. It develops riding skills of balance & counterbalance, along with a keen understanding of how the bike will react in ever-changing terrain and conditions when riding off-road. SkillZ for thrillZ!
Fantastic.....great piece....@stanforadventure
Thank you! Glad you enjoyed it.
