All I want to learn is how you did turn quick at 3:14. If keep the machine upright, the arc of the turn is quite larger at uphill than downhill. This is why the uphill turn is more difficult than downhill. Most people don't understand about it.
@@kazuhix did you get your motorcycle out, find a steep incline and practice this drill? I think when you practice this, you will see it is very simple to keep a nice tight circle with very little momentum. Just give it a try and then we can discuss.👍
Lol, I attempted a u-turn from a stop on a hill steeper than the one you are on, and gravity won. Got to spend 4 hours waiting for the doc to look over my xrays in the ER. I'll have to give this a try once I find a suitable place closer to home to practice this technique. Thanks for sharing.
@PoliceMotorTraining minor sprained wrist, some scratches on the derby cover and a bent clutch handle. Nothing that won't heal or can't be fixed. Thanks.
The hill i was on yesterday was the same incline, and the street was half that width. With gravel at the cross street. I did stupid and stopped at the right corner because I didn't wait for the person in front of me to complete her uturn. I should have waited for her to complete it, then go up, turn, clutch in, coast down. Engine guards in the front and rear saved any scratches and dents and kept my left leg from getting crushed. Klim jeans with knee pads saved my left knee. Thanks for the tips.
The first way is way more fun though, because it feels like you're leaning like crazy. However, yeah, if the concern is clutch control then the only correct answer is to master clutch control!!!
Another way to learn this stuff is by riding a lightweight dirt bike inside a punch bowl, where your eyes and your sense of balance are sometimes feeding you different information.
Good information. I also ride a lot in the Alps and Pyrenees, there you see often the bikers brake to hard with the front mid-turn.😳 No way they can hold it as they have one feet airborne and the front is going kamikazestyle.... The sound of plastics and metal sliding down goes through heart and soul 😱
I have a really steep driveway and have always wanted to try turning around on it,,, after this I may try,,, got wait though, just had my knee replaced. 😂
Made me laugh...! I've had four new knees!! Still riding, but I lose a solid 4 months (at least) of riding each time I go under the knife. Never give up, never surrender... :D
Very simple with this technique. If you notice in the video, I’m able to stop on the incline at any point in the turning process because I am perfectly balanced up and down and do not have any lean angle on the bike. So all you would do is manage it as if you were on flat ground turning around in a tight space. Obviously the caveat here is that ground clearance will be much greater on one side versus the other because you are on an incline but as long as you remain straight up and down and do not lean the bike during the three-point turn, it’s a piece of cake. Give it a try, and I think you will be very pleasantly surprised how simple it is 👍
No, not much. Because the incline helps keep the motorcycle from free wheeling and running wide, along with helping generate stability that allows tighter turning at the bars without the risk of generating an outside lean. Remember, if you are straight up and down on flat ground, you have a 50-50 chance of angling the motorcycle toward the outside of the turn when navigating through a slow speed turn, however slight. And then yes it will take you wider compared to using a leaning technique. But You don’t have that issue on a steep incline, where gravity is working against you through the apex-trying to move you back down the hill. try it and you will see what I’m talking about. With a little practice and mild rear brake it’s by far the easiest way to do it.
Out of 10 videos on u turn on slope, 9 videos talk absolute kok and one video (this one) clears all the smoke. Thank you vely much.

Thanks Quinn. I’ve been struggling with this (over complicating) something to practice. Great channel!
Thanks a lot for sharing your experience with the riders!

Hope you’re healthy and healed up!

New subscriber from England UK. 🏍️💨👍. Thanks to Greg at Motojitsu for the heads-up. 👍
Hey buddy thanks! And I guess I owe Greg a cold 🍺 👍
Thanks, I like simple.

Yeah not a great situation- the front brake is not usually your friend when the speeds slow down and the bars are turned...

Get that knee replaced buddy!

Tops 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Why is the camera tilted (just look at the gate on the left)?
@@Estradinhas_do_ES not sure, the wife was my camera operator that day, I’ll have to dock her pay until we get it figured out!
😂@@PoliceMotorTraining
Say the road is too narrow for a U turn,how would u do a 3 point turn on a hill?

What you are saying is true, but as you well know, but are not saying, is the turn is MUCH wider, when the bike is upright.
No, not much. Because the incline helps keep the motorcycle from free wheeling and running wide, along with helping generate stability that allows tighter turning at the bars without the risk of generating an outside lean.

Try it on a bicycle first.
