Awesome to learn about your channel from 2nd Year Moto Trials. Hoping to get up the courage to actually use the throttle on my Beta 200 so I can RSG it.
Awesome mate thanks for joining in! Tom has done amazingly well! Like I mentioned last night take it small steps! The anxiety/fear and old habits are the hard bits for all of us! 😜👍
I’m soooo happy to come across your video. I’m new to trials even though I’m coming from enduro and a mtn bike background. Your break down is spot on. Thanks for your teachings. Hope to find more video content.
Loving this .. I’m struggling with hills especially in wet weather, I tend to lean forward to early and rear wheel breaks grip, I’m 5foot5 which doesn’t help ! But def riding throttle and not enough clutch this should help but is there any tips for smaller people to keep weight back on rear! I’d love to see a vid of the rsg technique on a muddy/slippy climb !
Glad you enjoyed it! 😜👍. Being smaller you actually have an advantage! You can get down and into the bike more easily than a taller rider! Weight on the rear will help the traction, but you need the clutch control to match. The front wheel lift, is far more about clutch control than body position. So I would recommend working on your clutch control first, then worry about weight next. RSG is the simplified pattern I use to get riders bringing everything together, it works really well but it’s important to go through the right steps, and progression. Work on your clutch first! Find an incline/hill set “3 points”, sitting with feet on ground, stop with front axle at each “point” but no brakes allowed, only clutch. When that’s dialed add a controlled, very slow roll back on the hill side, using the clutch only, no brakes. Sitting feet down the whole time. It’s seems too simple but it’s high value
Thank you Neil, really fantastic breakdown. I look forward to giving it a go over the weekend. Will definitely join the community as well. What is the next progression after getting the RSG down with the cones? I assume starting with a small log or step - maybe 30cm?
I am glad you liked it! 😜👍 from the cones, I feel the next step is to do it at the base of a hill to truely get past the anxiety of revving the bike. Just allows you to get comfortable with rpm and clutch release. After that find a small embankment if possible. Dirt is best, or a rock step that’s flat on top, but not a log. You only want to deal with the up and not need worry yourself if the down n the other side. Find something that you can comfortably ride without fear and focus on the application and the rear wheel drive. Hope that makes sense
Hi! Thank you for explaining the techniques. One thing is not clear to me is what exactly happens with the throttle when clutch is popped. From what I see at 13:38 you quickly and fully released the clutch when front was still on the ground th-cam.com/video/TievEO3R-gY/w-d-xo.html (no slipping clutch or moving hips back for wheelie). Did you close the throttle at the same time you popped the clutch to get that rear lift off the ground or you kept the throttle at the same initial level (RPM) until the rear hit the obstacle or climbed to the top? If throttle was still on when clutch is popped, I would assume the bike would want to roll forward and rear wheel being planted to the ground (that probably doesn't help with rear lift off the ground).
Hey mate! The throttle is not shut off at the moment of clutch release. We use a combination of engine inertia and power/torque. So we do need it kept open. BUT it naturally tends to shut off as the handlebars rise, and come closer to our body. The bars are rotating backwards so it’s the same as rotating your hand forward.
The “lift” is created by the hard acceleration of the clutch dump, combined with the geometry set up of the bike/body. The lift by however is best gauged by the bikes sprung mass, not the wheels
Thank you for the explanation! > best gauged by the bikes sprung mass, not the wheels You've bottomed down the suspension by slightly bending the knees 💪

Excellent explanation! Just found your channel, love the content and the delivery by the two of you.
Thanks Phil! We need to get back onto TH-cam, we haven’t done any shows in a while

Logo explained 😀 never realized 👌
I bet you won’t be able to un-see it now.! 🤣
@@TESkills burn it in my brain coach. 👊🔥

You've bottomed down the suspension by slightly bending the knees 💪
