As someone who has 30+ year's. Road scratching I appreciate your channel. Unlike most other channel's who have one are two years experience. And no idea what they are talking about. You have lots of knowledge and experiences. Thank you for sharing. ✌
“normal riders like us”!!
I can’t wait to be a “normal” rider like you Neevesy 😂
I actually owned Alex Goberts(Anthonys little brother) old 2000 CBR600F ex track bike, he had just thrown road fairings on it and it still had the ohlins suspension and the full yoshi system, and obviously had tuned carbs, I remember getting the bike ran on the dyno and it made 112hp at the wheel and I was told that was abnormally high. I was only 19 at the time and took it for granted, it was an amazing bike. Wish I never sold it. RIP Anthony.
Normal riders like us 😂😂😂😂.(in reality all of us watching are total amaters , and You are our Rossi , but really nice to talk that way)
Great videos , tnx mr. N.
One day, one track, one instructor? Michael Dunlop, any bike, any track. this man was killer.
The 'Go Show' was something else for sure; such natural talent. Sad loss.
Bike: Paton S1-R
Track: Mugello
Instructor: J McW
Great tips. Thanks.
Hello Neevesy, really enjoying your channel & content. My father & I attended Ron Haslam race school for 9 years up until it closed which I’m sure many of us would agree is a great shame. We’ve also attended California superbike school up to level 3. We learnt so much and can’t recommend training enough to anyone wanting to improve both their track & road riding. I have got out of many situations on the road due to knowledge gained from training & track riding. For me it was learning what a bike is capable of & over coming that mental barrier. To allow the bike to do what it was designed to do. I have put this to good use over the last 8 years of ownership with my 2016 Tuono V4.
I unfortunately never had the pleasure of your tuition as an instructor when we attended the school. You were always paired with my father 😂 however, we both received fantastic advice on & off track. After watching many of your videos now I wish to pass on my thanks. These Q&A are a great way to continue to learn more tips …. Thank you & I look forward to more videos…….. all the best Dane 👊✊️✊️
Hi Dane, good to hear from you again. Thanks for the kind words. We had some good times at the school, eh? And your Dad never used to hang around! Hopefully our paths will cross at point on a trackday this year!
The back brake lets you load the tyres while cornering without losing the control and running wide. Having watched your videos about this I now use my back brake all the time on the road, it helps me turn so much more sharply.
Another great piece of wisdom. I can honestly say that until a recently viewed BVG podcast I had never visited your channel but after doing so, instantly liked your demeanour and explanation with both calmness and experience! Great job all round 👌
Same here. Watch MCN but wasn’t aware of your channel Neevesy. Cross pollination is good 👍🏻.
It was interesting riding with Spenser how much he used the throttle and brake at the same time yet was amazingly smooth - and corner entry speed was eye opening 😮 (VFR at Vegas)
Jeremy McWilliams, Road Atlanta, Indian Bagger 😅
Thanks! Great vid!
You know, I’m not a fast rider or a track rider, I’m just a commuter who likes to spanner on the bike with the boy and take him on trips. But your videos just make me happy, there is a passion and spirit in your tone of voice that I find incredibly soothing, a bit like listening to Anthony Bourdain talk about food. Cheers!
I love how you think you are a normal rider. Great video bro 🏁
Your personnel channel is one of the most informative sources of motorbike content anywhere. Thank you so much!
Amazing, amazing video Neevsy, I have gone to a few school days at csbk , ron haslam (2018 I think) not quite sure If I ran into you , it really helps , plus all the tips you have given specially how to ride a 1000 is very very helpful, I am looking to go from a 600 to a 1000 so definitely all your tips will help, answer to the fun question; I would pick an R1 , Silverstone and you as the instructor 😅
a great question and GSX-R750/Neevesy/Brands Hatch GP circuit.
Phillip Island, you as instructor because you explain everything clearly & understandably, KTM Superduke GT. I had as 2016 one until I lost my licence on it for speeding, naturally. Still the best bike I've ridden, let alone owned. Greg from Cowes, Phillip Island
Agree 100% on the back brake use, carry on Sir!! I hardly think you are a "normal rider."
Thanks for the advice,as well as the entertainment 🙏👍
as always, so many tips and knowledge packed into one video.
Very useful. Definitely learnt something. Thanks 👍
Very interesting subject and great video! I just love to listen to this, im excited to go out and intentionally try some of these tips and tricks, booth on road and track. Thanks!😃
Awesome video! Happy Birthday! 🎂 Best!
Great advice…thank you
Thanks so much for answering my question! Yes indeed california canyons (ach and mullholland mostly). I will definitely try and brake more. I do think that I'm mostly just flowing at or slightly above the speed limit into the corners so I don't need to brake unless it's tight. Anyway thanks again!
Pleasure. Let me know how you get on 👍
A friend of mine who is an extremely talented rider rarely uses his brakes on his Hayabusa on the street in the canyons because he isn't going so fast that the engine braking isn't enough. It isn't until he is well above the speed limit that I see his brake light flicker. On track it is a different story. On track he is hard on the brakes and then he trail brakes almost to his apex. As Neely said, it is more of a need issue. If your speed is slow enough that you don't need to brake, then you don't need to brake.
@briangc1972 that's because canyons are full of right-hand, blind turns. I cringe whenever I'm following a rider that goes full blast into them.
This was an interesting one
Thanks for another great video👌
Great choice ....A VR46 R1 around Spa following Rossi🤩
Hi Neevesy. Thanks for answering my question, that confirms my thoughts exactly 👍🏻 I’m using the rear on my new S1000RR much more now, and actually fitting a thumb brake to my CBR600F3 to get better feel.
Hi Neevesy, fantastic vid, will have to watch a couple of times to remember all the superb shared knowledge. Shout out to the viewers also for some great questions. For one track/instructor would have to be Leguna Seca (just want to ride that corkscrew), has to be the Suzuki GP bike (just the most forgiving), with Sylvain Guintoli as the instructor (You are close second though 😃).
Neevesy. Greetings from the U.S. Love your videsos. Can you please explain trail breaking vs. the Simon Crafar method of cornering? I would enjoy a video addressing more of these two techniques. I don't do track days.I'm 100% street rider. Thanks.
Some great tips thank you. Can’t wait to try the throttle off technique this summer. Your last question .. got to be a moto2 Street Triple at Cadwell Park with you !
Always enjoying your videos, thank you. Great questions on this one, with great answers. I’ve got a question as well. If a track day isn’t an option, is it unwise to learn to break , lean and corner on b roads and canyon roads? Can’t wait for your review on the M XR!
Hi Neevsy, great video. My 1 bike 1 track 1 instructor dream, having my formative motorcyle years in the 90s, would have to be Carl, at Brands Hatch GP on a 996R.
I ride the Indy quite frequently on my ZX6R track bike, but can you imagine riding the GP circuit with Carl giving you tips on such an iconic bike; OMG that would be just amazing!
Now having said that, the next best option would be to have Chris Walker instruct on my bike on the same circuit, which I think is available via one of the track day companies, I may just have to look into that, thanks for the inspiration.
Another great video cheers. Mine would be Neil Hodgson at Brands Hatch on a Honda RCV 213 - amazing circuit, right laugh with Hodgy and a special bike! Had to think of an alternative to yours because you nailed it haha
I alway learn every time you put something out - thanks and very much appreciated! Has supermoto died? It seems a great way to learn and experiment with ideas such as the cornering techniques you’ve been speaking about. Lots of corners, lower speeds and bikes that can take a drop without disintegrating seem a no brainer. I’ve found a place in Spain which does supermoto training sessions but it all seems pretty underground in the UK. What’s your view on supermoto as a leaning environment and do you know of any UK schools (South East the best for me). Thanks again.
Good question. I’ll answer it soon 😊👍
@neevesybikes Many Happy Returns Michael. Thanks for another year of great content and conversation. It's just a number.
Mugello, Vale, RC213V-SP or if Mr Padgett wasn't willing, my RSV-4 Factory.
Great stuff. 👍
this video came out while i was in the middle of my first race! i came last by a couple seconds after an intense battle with second last, but i gained 7 seconds/lap over the whole weekend and im absolutely hooked!!!! i was racing my fat stock 250 against light underbones on a kart track so I could've used the 1000s vs 600s cornering advice, i think!
Oh yes, what a track day that would be. Think Rossi at Mugello would be pretty special, and maybe Stoner at Philip Island? I’m sure you’ve been asked before, same question but for a road trip. Where, who and on which bike?
Think I’d choose an Alpine route, probably back via route Napoleon, on a Multistrada RS, with any group which has a good sense humour for the stops and some cardo banter 😃😃
Phillip Island, Casey Stoner and a CBR 1000 RR. I was on track recently with CSS and was learning off throttle turning and I felt as though I was being sucked into the apex setting me up beautifully, being the slowest part of the corner, to get back to the gas
My dream bike/track/trainer would be my own 2020 S1000RR on my local track (Sydney Motorsport Park at Eastern Creek) with Troy Corser. Having a familiar bike on a familiar track would take a couple of variables out and I could focus all of my attention on learning even 1-2% of what Troy could teach me. PS: I saw him at one of our track days here in Sydney a few months ago but I was too shy to go up to him and have a chat. Wish I had.
Hello again Mr Neeves! I bloody love your channel and wait anxiously for each new vid. As there is always gold in each one. I have a Q for you (which prob doesn't warrant a response on vid) about tyres. I have been desperately looking for information regarding the wet weather performance of the Diablo Rosso Quattro Corsa. I am looking to get new rubber on the track focussed machine, and live in the UK where last year 8 out of ten 10 track days were wet to some capacity. I don't have the option to grab more wheels right now for wet dedicated tyres etc, so want the best I can get that will handle the wet tracks. I was looking at the straight Rosso IV, but unsure if they're going to be enough for the track? I'm prob near top of novice at the mo, and feel like I need some more confidence on the edge, which is why tyres are causing me such a huge time sink in research. I was considering the Battleaxe S23 too, but really like the Pirelli profile feel.
If the Rosso IV corsa can handle the wet enough then that would be my first choice. (unless you can recommend anything else? I was looking at Michelin Power 6's but there isn't much info out about those hoops yet). Thanks for all the awesome content and advice, tips and stories. You're a ledge.
Hi Neevesy, great video as always. A lot of your videos you mention trackday riding, my question for you is, how do I get around my competitive side and stay safe on track? I've always been into competitive sports and turned pretty much everything into a competition. I simply can not help it.
I've always had some amazing bikes for the road, Gixxers, R1M, and currently a 2020 Tuono v4 1100 Factory. Everyone tells me to get on track and see how amazing these bikes are, but I've always been too worried that as soon as someone faster goes past, I'll try and chase them down. Thanks Nathan
Phillip Island, Casey Stoner, Bautista's WSBK Panigale.
Moto2 Daytona 765, Jake Gagne, Jerez
Yes, that's me at 25:00 minutes in - too much braking, a bit of throttle before apex, then losing it because I am leaning too much at the wrong place. I will try to only break to the apex next time, without any throttle before reaching apex. Thanks!
Allo Neevesy, love your work. I learn so much from these videos, thank you for sharing your experience.
I would ride my K7 1000 on my local track (NZ) and have you train me for a day. That would be spectacular 🤯.
Question: would you recommend a short throw throttle for a regular track day/ road bike? Cheers L
Hi Michael, loving the ask Neevesy series. Every time an adventure bike or tall rounder is reviewed there are always question marks about the effectiveness of the screens ( buffeting, wind protection etc). Do any recent bikes stick out as being good from stock and do you think manufacturers do enough finding answers for screen issues?
Cheers, Graham.
pure wisdom
Really interesting episode. I have a back brake question. I do use the back brake but it's infrequent & in the more obvious situations, down hill, in the wet & low speed manoeuvres. My question is on a normal road, how often & when are you using the back break, especially going in to corners?
Hello Michael I have a question for you. Perhaps something for your ‘Thanks for asking’ channel.
How do you push past that mental barrier of leaning the bike over more? I know the bike can lean over more, but it’s that mental barrier of telling myself the front won’t just washout and that the bike will turn and grip?
Hope to hear from you. Love your bike content. Just watched your podcast with BVG.
Many thanks
Turo
Hi Neevesy, love your videos and the way you transmit your knowledge. I love the rear brake as you said it stables the bike. But on a twisty road I find comfortable and stable if my feets are on the tips on the pegs, doing so I can’t use the rear brake on right corners. Is there a solution? For example how do you use the rear brake on a right corner on track?
Thank you
Great cornering tips. I had a GSXR1000 K7 until recently before trading up to L7. Although the K7 was not considered a great upgrade to the K5/K7 model due to EURO 4 regs, it is a super smooth super bike, super comfortable to ride and so a great bike for someone new to sports bikes. My L7 is something else but way too much power (in my opinion) for someone to start on. A GSXR750 would be a good choice too but I’d go for the K7 given its civilised power delivery and save yourself upgrading after 6 months. What would your choice be for a newbie to sports bikes?
Hi Neevesy. I noticed you’ve got a new white RX7 Evo on the shelf. Is there a new helmet design for 2024? I’ve always wanted a custom lid. Is it expensive and where can I get it done in the uk? Love the channel, thanks. Nick
Spa, rossi & a Ducati Desmosedici 😊
I'd chose Neevesy, or Simon Crafar as a coach on Philip Island and using an R1.
I've never ridden a 1000 superbike, nor P.I. so it would be a handful but cathartic experience for sure😅
Happy birthday for last week id have kevin schwantz on a rgv 250 or 500 at Donington. .
I’d love to go to Croft and you teach me.
Not looking for sympathy (honest) but I had some sight issues 2018 but got my license back but never regained my confidence on the bike, even before my issues I was a talent free zone on a bike!
Living proof you don’t have to be good at something to absolutely love it.
I ride a Concours 14, that’s a GTR1400 in UK speak, you need both brakes to get that beast whoa’d down…..
I find difficult to properly rev match while using front brake maintaining the braking consistency, any advice? Cheers from Madeira, Thank you!
You may have already mentioned this somewhere but how do you personally find the correct suspension settings particularly hydraulics
Panigale V4R. Guy Martin. Isle of Man.)))
for me, you as instructor, k5 1000, any track or road for lessons.
🧿
I’m wondering if I’m doing something wrong, I do the off throttle cornering on the road, I thought that’s what you had to do, I’m not a fast rider or anything
Moto 3 bike,portimao,with you 👍
"Neutral phases" Or the lack of them.
Hi Neevsey, I see you have the Tech Air 5 Airbag vest. Would you recommend and is it ok to take on a flight? Thanks
Yep, no problem. I take my airbag in my hold luggage all the time 👍
Thanks I was just wondering as I thought I might need to disconnect the cartridge cylinder at the least, but if not that’s good. Many thanks for the great content and for being the goat of moto journos 👍🏻
@@MrBiggles no, just keep the system disconnected. I’ve taken mine though hundreds of times and it’s never even been mentioned, let alone checked. All the tech details are on the app if they need any more info.
Great thanks for the advice appreciate it 👍🏻 all the best
Hi Neevesy, I do find there is an argument for autoblippers for the street, in case you need to do an emergency stop its much easier to bang down the gears when you are braking. Much faster compared to using the clutch. What do you think?
I see where you’re coming from, but a for a real ‘sh*tthisisntgoingtoendwell’ emergency stop it’s just brakes. There’s no time to change down!
@@neevesybikes i agree. It happened to me few weeks ago and all I could do was brake. No coordination even to bang down the gears!
Autoblippers on the road are fantastic, they free up another 5% of your brain to concentrate on everything else. Emergency stops, yep as the others answers say just grab a hand full of brake 🤣
I had a 17 RSV4RF and the autoblipper on that was like butter. The V4 sound through a shortened carbon Akra was phenomenal. I'm pretty sure I spent most of my time needlessly changing gears. I'm not gonna kid myself that it was for any other purpose than dropping 3 gears coming into a tunnel and booting. Yeah juvenile but made me grin. Had one a 1290R and it was shit, never used it.
For emergency stops just pull in the clutch.
This is the second video I've seen, in which you mention Simon Crafar. But it appears that his @motovudu YT channel is dead. Last upload was about 3 years ago. I'm not sure he puts any effort into it anymore, which is quite sad. I used to watch every video of his as soon as he posted.
I think he's busy with the MotoGP job now!
But it's not Monday. This is going to upset my whole OCD week 😂
Why have your last few videos been uploaded at 720p ?
‘Should I use the clutch in corners?’
Was that taken out in edit?
Well spotted. There's an error in the chapter markers. You can drop the clutch now!
Answer to the last question = My Panigale, Silverstone, Casey Stoner.

Also, I hope Rossi hears your wish. 👍
Quality not quantity 😉
Because Yammi noob appeals to the mental capacity of the average human. 15000 to 1.4 million sounds about the right ratio. Haven't you ever wondered who those ads on tv and radio are for, how politicians get elected or how anyone can think McDonalds is food?
@@1Beetlegeuse I agree with all except I just love me some McDonald fries, which may be food. And their vanilla milkshake, which is definitely not food.
