Stood up u-turns are tricky as hell to get comfortable with doing every time. Getting the feeling through the footpegs and the weight distribution can take an age. Once you get the feeling of it dialled, the world becomes the oyster. You'll be able to turn around anywhere and everywhere!
Hopefully this video gives you a better understanding of the mechanisms of how they work and what you're trying to achieve when doing your stood up u-turns. - ยานยนต์และพาหนะ
Good to see you and your Dad making some excellent videos again. Just a thought but you could add a figure eight in a future video to show the transition of body weight and sight lines.
Good idea!
I too love your mini tip Mondays. Great video once again and I definitely love watching them, always have good tips to put in practice
Thanks Dolly!
Very nice tip. To me the key of my Uturn is the foot brake.
I watch this video on standing and the other one on U turns frequently .. they were game changers for me… I also practice sitting and standing U-turns at the beginning and ending of my rides which has made a huge difference …great job helping support and grow our sport..well done
Thanks! This is very well presented and explained. I have to say that the illustrations on top of the video go a long way towards making an already very clear explanation even clearer. I’ll share both of these U-turn videos with people looking to improve these skills.
Thanks Fred. Much appreciated.
...I look forward to every mini-tip! Much thanks for all you do, especially right now while the world is on its ear!
Thanks 🙂 I appreciate your nice comments!
As usual top quality vid and first rate content.Really really helpful. Thanks very much.
Glad you enjoyed it!
This video is a joy, as always!
I came across your videos by chance and I like them a lot. As a new (yet old bike 2005) 1200GS owner your instructions are very understanding and I can't wait to start putting to practice your explanations. Last owned a bike, 650 GS, 10 years ago.
Yet another great Mini Tip Monday!
Congratulations on the quality of the video !! Very didactic, very well filmed, excellent sound ... thanks for sharing, following the tips little by little (even if maneuvering inside the garage at home). You make it look easy
Thanks for the kind words Raphael!
Excellent video .. well explained and demonstrated,
Fantastyczne filmy, i rewelacyjny komentarz. Pozdrowienia z Polski.

You're welcome Mark 😁
Love these vids. I need to learn a lot. Thanx
Thanks David!
I do love MiniTip Mondays!
Thanks!
Always useful tips.
Thanks!
good stuff as always pukka graphics too, Must be the best presented stuff on the net now. Dont know if this is one you can do but decending medium inclination long loose especially loose rocky slopes with the big loaded bike, it really takes it out of me physically. any tips on a Monday would be great. Ta very much.
thank you soooo much 🤘✌🖑👍
I recon a video on Ktm 790 adv r rally mode set up would be fun for you and very handy for me!
🤣
Thank you for this informative video. May I ask, what handguards did you install at your bike? Regards from Germany
No problem! They are Barkbusters VPS
Sorry if you have but have you guys done a review of the Scott suit you have? There aren't very many people that seem to stick it in the UK, other than buying direct, I'd be interested to hear a more in depth view of how all the features perform, the fit, etc....
Great video. I like your helmet. Type?
I need to master making a U turn whilst in the saddle let alone doing a stand up U turn.
Wow I never noticed that external shock for the fork on BMW... It's brilliant! Does that extra linkage require much service?
Not really no. :)
I still don't understand why there are people that hate Mondays!
I know right 🤣🤣
Is that a bit of outside knee pressure being applied as well?
Nope. The knee has to bend a but knee pressure isn't really a thing.
I can do full lock to the left easily with the bike nestling on to my left knee. To the right, I can't do. I either fall or take a wide line. Any reason why?
Probably a few. Start by filming yourself. It's most likely that your technique isn't the same going both ways.

Hi from America...just curious; are you related to Simon Pavey? Saw him with Charlie Boorman doing the Dakar on TH-cam.
Simon was on the bike. Simon is Lyell’s dad
As the man said 🙂
@@BrakeMagazine 👍 thanks mate
No mention of using the rear brake for a tight turn?
Correct. The rear brake is a useful tool but it shouldn't be something you need. You want to be able to be able to do the turn in the simplest way possible so if something like your body position has to be extreme to keep balance, you don't need to use the rear brake.
06:55 doing weird like Bret Tkacs? :-))
what Bret would think about break magazine's tips? and body positioning? mmmm
The ground is never close to flat when I have to do a tight u turn. And my girl is always on the back. Sucks.
This even more important then 🙂
Pillion seat is always for your duffel bag 😅
Life begins where the asphalt ends.
Standing up. Where does this "stood" come from??
I agree. What a dick cant even speak the English language properly.
Motorcycles have a seat for a reason ,you are supposed to sit on it .Riding on public roads or byways whilst standing is illegal & you cold be done for riding without due care & attention if a copper sees you doing it .The motorcycles that are minus a seat to be ridden standing up are called trial bikes designed for private off road circuits & tracks ,not legal on public roads .
What are you avenging?
And where in the law does it say you can't stand up on a motorcycle? How is riding without due care and attention. It's incredibly obvious at this point that a motorcycle can be safely ridden both sat down and stood up.
lastly, trials bikes, enduro bikes and pretty much any other bike can be ridden legally on public roads. We have specific laws that allow vehicle like this to be used, including Daytime MOT's and Enduro MOT's.
Also, this is a video for off-road riding. We have one with how to do this sat down.
@@BrakeMagazine For a start road bikes have to be registered with foot rests seats & handle bars & working controls .Bikes being used on off non public enduro courses are a totally different kettle of fish ,they only need to be road legal to be ridden on public roads .Adventure bikes are ridden on public highways .Also I got stopped in 1972 for standing up whilst riding a motorcycle & told to be properly seated on the vehicle ,or I would be summoned to court for driving without due care & attention by the traffic police .I notice there is a trend these days for riders of these so called adventure bikes to stand up on the footrests on both public roads & off road byways that are still subject to public highway laws .What they do on private land is a different matter & they could then stand on their heads if they desired it .PS I am not avenging anything ,just letting riders know they might find themselves having hassle with the law & their licences at risk of gaining penalty points if spotted by police standing up riding a motorcycle on public roads or byways ..
@@maskedavenger2578 @Masked Avenger 1972 was a really long time ago and it would impossible for a court of law to prove that riding and adventure bike while stood up is unsafe practice in 2021. It's infinitely provable that this is the case and therefore it wouldn't prosecutable as such.
Secondly, Dirt bikes and trials bikes are also capable of being registered to ride on any road in the UK. I have done this.
No one is going to be told off for standing up on a byway or unclassified road either.
@@BrakeMagazine It’s obvious not safe practice to stand up on a motorcycle ,you are altering the weight distribution of the machine .If a traffic copper judges you to not be seated on or in the vehicle correctly on a public highway ,driving without due care an attention ,no matter if it’s 1972 or 2072 the local beak will find you guilty .Further more if you have an accident whilst riding standing up .you will have a hard time convincing your insurance company to cover you & pay up .If you want to ride around standing up looking like a mere- cat that’s your affair .but you shouldn’t be encouraging others to copy .
These GS1250's are just too tall, and too heavy for normal riders.
For the average rider, riding one of these whales all day in real off-road conditions is a miserable experience. Been there - done that!
Most riders would be way better off, and have much more fun, on a Suzuki V-Strom 650.
And their wallet be much thicker! LOL
