If you enjoyed this video I’ve just launched a new site with lots more useful infos, tutorials and bespoke circuit guides. Enjoy 😎 stan.store/taylormac77
As a relatively new rider, this is the kind of video you want to play on repeat with headphones in while you sleep 😂😂😂
Very true 😅😅😅😅
watch twist of the wrist 2. Your welcome.
It works
@VarietzHD fauk yeah, that totally slipped my mind about waking up & learning. Thanks 🤙!
Matter of fact I’m doing it right now 😂
Number 10 is so important. I used to have a piece of tape on my triple clamps that said BREATHE, because I found myself holding my breath, even after years of riding.Great tipsTaylor.
Number 10 is number 1. You have to relax completely as soon as you get the hole-shot. You relax, get into the zone, and everything goes into slow-motion. I even had an out of body experience watching myself from above and behind, and I easily won that race loosing the front end twice a lap with a new size front tire, and putting my buddy in the ambulance before the restart.
Best to push down on the outside peg when cornering. It also helps with rear wheel steering.
Another use of a rear brake. When I was racing, the thumb controllers had just come out. Sadly I did not have one. My bike kept popping out of gear when I was fully leaned over at two corners. I was fighting for third in the expert level. The second best thing after my starts was my late braking. I waited far too late to brake heading into the third from last corner. Using the rear brake can help keep the rear wheel from trying to go over your head. Unfortunately for me, the rear wheel started to come over my head far too fast where I could effectively slow the wheel down. The force of the spinning rear tire was trying to push the bike over me. This would not have been a problem if I had had a thumb controller. Now mind you, I must have been going around eighty, but I was ultra relaxed, and I was enjoying the experience of what was going on, and the fact that I was so relaxed. However, I knew there was a very good possibility that I could severely hurt myself if I didn’t stay relaxed, or even if I did. Wonderful experience for the brain, knowing you had the tools to succeed because while things were going violently at speed, I had things as much as I possibly could in a controlled manner having everything slowed down in my brain. What did I end up doing? I started pogoing/ bouncing off my front tire with the rear trying to go over my head, spinning fast at speed, and grabbing the brake just a little every time I bounced the front wheel off the tarmac, leaving little blacked as I did so. I was able to slow down enough to drop the rear somewhat and use my rear brake to slow the tire down. We were so far ahead and I limped around the last two corners at 25 mph or fourth. A racer who was watching me from inside the track came up to me afterwards and told me that was the most amazing thing he had ever seen someone do on a motorcycle. Rear breaks are good, but staying relaxed and getting in the zone is most important. I took Akido, and that certainly helped me to relax completely on the tracks during races.
This is a must watch video for every rider. Chalk-full of great and important tips
Glad it was helpful!
Was a drink into watching this and read chalk-ull as chick-fil-a. lol im tired and just got home from work. Ps did not drink and drive.
I only ride a 500 and never been on track, but this was still great to watch. Thanks
all the very best advice rolled into one video... BRILLIANT... and very well presented... Thanks a LOT
Some great nuggets of information there, thanks Taylor, for covering it so comprehensively.
Taylor. Thanks for great information. Your clarity was fantastic
Thanks, Taylor Great points and the one I found to be excellent was RELAX, that focus and patience are key points in racing! thanks, MaC
"look where you want to go" further proves that the bike becomes an extension of you. In trampolining, I learned that "where the neck goes, the body will follow" and that idea helped me, somewhat, with getting used to the idea.Very underrated tip but helps a lot.
True nuggets of GOLD, thanks TMac.✌
Great instructions Taylor very informative
Superb content as always Taylor. Great vid.
Thank you so much for the tips and the book taylor😍
Very good tips sir 👍
Great video Taylor thank you for posting. More racer tips are appreciated
I used to never use my rear brake back when I used to race. I let a friend ride my bike one time and he used the rear brake and it got stuck so bad he couldn't finish the lap. I guess today with all the anti lock brakes it's probably good to learn how to use them 👍 great video
Just learn the steps one by one..... These are really good techniques which he is showing..... I myself will start working on them....great material for bike riders....❤
Great tips! The majority of these tips are ones that I myself preach to new street and TD riders as well.
as a new rider this is great, thanks for the information & spreading knowledge that will make all; better, safer and more confident
Great stuff - thanks, Taylor.
Road at the track for my first time yesterday first time ever being on the bike went straight to a zx10 and am used to motocross (much different riding) but great tips exactly the tips I needed! Ready for the next time.
Thanks for the tips mate, really useful 👍
Excellent tips, I think I’ve learned a few things to try on my next trackday 👍
All good points. Biggest tip. Get some time with an instructor or try a whitham track training day. I really enjoyed my day at Ron Haslam race school, sad it's no longer around.
Brilliant useful explanations
Absolutely useful thank you dude
Excellent vid. Thanks.
Great video! I've been to riding schools that didn't explain the fundamentals nearly as well.
Excellent video. I learned a lot.
great stuff Taylor
Great intel... thank you!
Love it. More videos like this pls.
Off to Donington on Tuesday, will be putting these tips to use!
Best explanations I’ve seen
Great video. very informative. ty
great advice 👍 hope I can put it all into practice in September at Knockhill 😂
2:00 As a Turkish Toprak fan, bro you earned my sub just by mentioning the king of kings ;)
😂😎
Great video, great tips excellent advice.
Thanks for taking the time to make this video it's very much appreciated 👍 👍
I'm off to Mallory on Thursday Il try to remember all these tips!
Channel is getting better & better...we love you TMack!!!!
Oh...and Tarran, you're alright too--keep on keepin' on!
i can smell a Toprak fan here :)
Great tips Taylor and ebook. Best tip I was ever told was to look ahead on corner - good to see it made it your tops tips. 👍 PS reckon it was a Mad Mark tip on the back brake "Brakes will slow you down" 🤣
I’ve had five motorcycles now, just bought the fifth. But each time I’ve wrecked it, it blew up, or wasn’t the right time financially, so I’ve only accumulated about 8 months of riding time in five years. I didn’t realize how bad I am at riding fast until I rode with my bro in the mountains, he was on a dirt bike but completely left me (and my fancy Aprilia) in the dust. This video is super helpful! Hoping to start some beginner track days soon.
Very sound advice
Finaly, good and understandable insight from experience. Excellent, thank you.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Your subs gonna blow up, I know it. This is really good stuff
A god amongst men. Thanks! Could you do a video about tips for riding in the wet in the future?
Amazing content.
Absolutely best explained tips I have heard yet in the sense of how you broke them down and gave clear reasons for why too and why not too! Great advice thank you
Glad you found value in it 😁
Exactly! Use rear brake to throw the bike into the corner! Yes! I do this! :)
Golden.thanks🙏
Really good video! Well explained and plenty of information!
This is really going to help me as I am starting my motorbike racing journey!
Thanks a lot 😀👍
Great to hear!
Thanks Taylor
Awesome video! 😁
Thank You!
Kissing the mirror has really helped on my 2014 Superduke r. Its taken me a while to feel confident leaning being such a high bike. More dirtbike like then crotch rocket
Just bought a new bike. Felt like I mastered my 84 Magna in the year I had it. Didn't realize how easy it was to ride relative to my new bike a VFR1200 X. Mostly just due to size in slow traffic or parking lmfao. But also in the aspect of I have alot more horse in this then the 700cc I had and I enjoy going fast. Thanks for the good advice on how to do so safely, this is exactly what I wanted to learn. I laid down my magna in the rain for the first time downshifting to quick and the back tire "skippin around on the floor" haha. The funniest thing to me is everything youre saying feels intuitive to me. Its like a hyperfocused common sense for the mechanically inclined.
Back Break use. When Im out on the road, I always use the front brake and then indroduce the back break when slowing down. This tecknic will stop/Pull you up so much quicker than just the front break alone.
Great advice especially looking far ahead and using the rear brake. I've never ridden on track but have decades of road experience and using the rear brake exactly as you say most definitely works. Very nice video, thanks👍
Glad it was helpful!
@@tmac77 do you have to change down the gears with an auto blipper or don't need to touch at all ? I know u don't need to touch the clutch
@lynxeffect84 lmao bro what??? How else would you downshift? You think the bike is gonna do it by itself? Of course you have to shift it down yourself with an autoblipper
Legend! ✌️
Great vid
My first Grand Prix race was at Leguna Seca in 1988 where your father almost won fighting against world champions. I had a poster of Niall on a bright yellow Honda until I graduated college. Now we are just old.
Great watch really interesting and helpful not a track day person to old but there is always things to pick up so thanks for that 🙏👌
Thanks
New rider here, just getting into track and racing, and wow ur tips are actually so helpful! I will definitely use these when i’m at my next track day!
That’s awesome! I hope you find them useful 😁
You are correct; these are RACING (not riding) tips.
If only you had an ebook out to further explain these concepts!
Read twist of the wrist
Fantastic
thankyou
Tip 10 is true I usually hold my breath for too long,and it makes me very tired
Great tips mate. Only thing i disagree with or is more important than you stated is the outside foot in the corner! If you hook the heel on the peg it gives you more bracing and hold your body up better mid corner.
I am trackdays instructor here and I find useful those tips just especially the way you explain it more detailed :). Thanks for sharing mate.
You're very welcome!
I grew up riding dirtbikes so it was muscle memory to leave one finger on each lever. The only way i could unlearn that was to brake with the last 3 fingers and leave the pointer on the throttle
Thanks!
Thank you!
Tip no.5 - look where you want to go
Very important one, I have experienced it.
Do not look anywhere from the road while cornering.
No idea who you are but Im now your #1 fan
Hi Taylor, good video, when are you making your return to racing? (on a Yamaha)
As a racer he's talking about downshifting and at the same time gesturing clicking it upwards :-)
This was well done sir. U got my subscripton. I ride and 2013 R6 and especially that rate broke advice I understand why ur dad ddnt want u to use it. But with my 2020 r6 I understand why u are kinda passed with him. The traction at the rear control present u from losing traction when braking
also brake a second later than everyone else and you will gain a second per corner. its easy....
Mad Mark......
Outstanding video. Probably one of the best on the subject.
Top tips💪💪💪✌️✌️✌️👍👍👍
I just understand the trans down shifts just don't let off the throttle the RPM's will match the down gear. Sequential transmission.
Elbow out grab the throttle . Try it.
Breaking is a skill that must be learned. Takes a good 5 years.
Yes look into the turn look where you want to go. Years to learn this too.
Read books to help you understand what the bike will do when to start breaking when to gas it out of a turn. Smooth is fast.
Braking like Toprak is going to take a lot of time and Courage
Check Wheelie King 5 if you want to learn wheelies
to the 10th - really there is a time to be ralexed after winter time. I ride safely to be comfortable because You never know how drivers behave and when they get used to see motorscycles on road
I don't race, but found the video interesting, anyway! And, you sure look sharp in the new leathers, boots! Bike is purrty, too!😻Too bad Mad Mark's appearance was just a blooper!😾Now, what kind of tips would he offer?🤔😼😹
Could you do a video on overtaking on track? I keep getting stuck behind someone who's slower but with a faster bike and it's frustrating lining up a move without being too aggressive
youre asking how to overtake basically asking how to win the race lol just become better
@@budgetgambler4306 Anyone asking for help on anything is trying to get better, and getting better wins races. overtaking alone does not win races if you can't keep the position.
Can tell you don't race/do trackdays, there's one thing being able to put together a good laptime and a whole other thing trying to work out how to lineup an overtake on someone, it can be very difficult trying to get past a 600cc supersport on a little 500 twin@@budgetgambler4306
Looking abit sweaty in them leathers Taylor
These bike riding tips are usually boring, annoying and incomplete, sometimes patronizing... but I actually quite liked this one. Very well done.
@4:44 how many finger to use for breaking. 4 fingers because my R1 factory breaks are crap (pump too weak and plus abs) 🤣
There definitely some corners where a beginner might find that they are understeering more than they’d like and can be almost frustrating when it doesn’t feel like an over speed thing. Those are the corners where it’s good to maybe start experimenting trail braking with the rear brake
Also I find it’s generally safer to space downshifts more at high speed, but by the same token you’re less likely to lock your rear by downshifting closer together at low speed where some engine braking may provide additional performance. But it’s best to feel that out per corner and only experiment with it an increment at a time rather than as a general rule
How do you back the bike in....just out of interest. Do you use the back brake?
Don’t forget the hair gel and sun glasses
How do I prevent death wobble! Never had it happen but terrified one day it will I only have 2 months of riding experience if that
Nice chicken strips dude 😂
Nice video and very helpful tips. I have one question. When we riding on the truck, are we sitting on the seat or we support all of our weight at our feet? ( pressing down the rear sets)
track
Just hold onto the tailgate in the truck and ensure you're only riding in the bed of a truck with a driver you respect, and whom respects you. Cheers!
I would say on the seat for straightaways and more on d foot pegs for corners.
also dangle both legs instead of one. increase braking when entering a corner.
?
Well the Great bikes have the Domino throttle.... ;)
