Craig ur the best thanks teach
“Hope is not a technique.”
This cannot be true. I am an expert at hoping ;-)
😀👍
Sh*t, seriously.
Another great educational video for free. What more could we ask for? Thanks man
Non rider here, this is one of if not the best tutorial videos I’ve ever seen, explained everything so well whilst performing it, earned a sub 👍🏻
You're churning out these videos like an absolute beast. I really appreciate it! Thank you from the UK
Love riding twisty roads on my z900rs. But I learned how to ride on a dirtbike. When road riding I don't really think about or analyze what's happening. I just twist the throttle, listen to the motor, and feel the wind surround me. Keep the shiny side up!
Great video and best summary you have done to date.
You did clean up the definition of maintenance throttle but "crack open the throttle" gets used a lot and its not a great example of open the throttle to maintain consistent speed.
Minor nitpick but defining the outer/inner/outer would be great (yes they keep changing based on left/right corner but it could be confusing to a new rider.)
Listen because this guy Will save your life! Thank You!
Thank you for confirming the correct way to look through a corner! When I went to Motorcycle Safety Training course, they really really emphasized keeping your head up and looking as far ahead as you can so that you can adapt to the geometry of the corner, but I also want to know exactly what my tires are about to encounter, so I have been doing it exactly like you explained about scanning back and forth thinking that I wasn’t doing it exactly right, but feeling safer and more prepared for anything I might encounter. Another excellent instruction video MJ!
I´m so grateful that you´re doing this videos, I learn so much from you that not even 5% of the information I didn´t hear from my instructor. Keep up good work and save.
Perhaps your best lesson yet. Thanks Brother!
Awesome, just bought my first bike and this stuff is what I needed to know
"End up on the outside" that makes more sense now on how to find my line and take my turn, thank you MJ
Your videos are great and very helpful. I’ve been practicing a lot of drills and my slow speed turning is improving everyday. Thank you!
‘Hope is not a technique’ 😅 Briljant!
Your videos are absolutely fantastic. Thanks for making us all better, safer riders!
Absolutely fantastic instruction. Thanks for sharing!
Thank you very much for all your efforts to help riders to improve their ride! Love & respect from Turkiye
Awesome knowledge in such a short video! Just about to go for a bike ride but first saw the entire video and now going to implement this. Thankyou Motojitsu 🙏 This means a Lot 🙏
This completely transformed my riding and confidence after a mere 10 mins practicing this. Thanks a bunch bro! 🎉
I like very much today's session. So worth it. I'll be practicing soon. Thank you mate.
Great video - - Thank you to Greg!!
Passed my Total Control Motorcycle class. Watching your videos and practicing practicing practicing ahead of time really helped me, so thank you!!
Yep, counter steering is a fun thing to work with... I do both depending on the day/corner/misc.
Great video as always. You have a real gift for practical explanation. Can’t wait to get my bike and start practicing.
So important steps! Thanks 👍🎯
Thanks for these videos very helpful for me as a new rider
Always on point and love to watch your content 😊
Thank You So much......Respect from the UK❤
Great information!! Thank you brother!
Had this epic gentleman for my MSF instructor in cali uh 2017 i think haha rock on!
thank you man. im learning alot.
I am currently riding in Upstate NY where the main road surfaces are less familiar to me and often in bad repair with patches, splits, bumps, ridges, etc., sometimes all in the same stretch of roadway and across the entire lane (or two), and I find myself riding with my eyes on the road just in front of me more of the time. The more I travel these roads, the more awareness I have of specific features and, eventually, I am able to adjust my speed, lean, and lane position to avoid them or pass safely over them without dramatic changes in speed. And too, at least initially, this means traveling much slower than marked speeds through corners, putting me at greater risk because of the speed of tailing traffic. I pull over safely and often to allow traffic to pass and for my own sanity, and I do my best to avoid these roads and ride the less-traveled roads which I enjoy more for all of the aforementioned reasons anyway. Too, sometimes it is necessary to use main roads to connect to other back roads. I know roads in CA are typically pretty well maintained (though, WTF with the metal patch plates)… Any advice for cornering on roads in such disrepair and with such uneven surfaces other than ‘go slow and don’t die’?
Thankyou so much coach!
Your wisdom and teaching has made me a better, safer, and more confident rider. I can't thank you enough for making such wonderful content.
👍🏼❤️
It took me a while to figure out where you were at until you passed the Thousand Trails Pio Pico sign. 8:50 Looks like a great stretch of road to use for this example.
Great video! I have been watching for a few years now, & I believe this is one of your best! Maybe it might be your best. Thank you C J
Biggest thing I see help with my cornering is practice. Applying these lessons to the real world is the only way.
Thank you master! ❤
Thanks for the vids, you were born a teacher.
Thank you for demonstrating in real life.
Very useful knowledge😎
Thank you very much.
Very educational
The first time I seen one of your videos on pulling right to go left and pulling left to go right I thought you were absolutely crazy and I've been riding since I was 13 years old then I realize I've been doing it for years it's just muscle memory don't even think about it LOL and now I'm a senior citizen and I still love to ride
It's more likely you were pushing right to go right and left to go left. The pulling method is definitely more counterintuitive. If I hadn't heard about it, I most likely wouldn't have tried it to this day.
Thanks heaps 💙🏍️
Top! 👌
Nice
I finally understood what the "slowest point of the curve" data is for.
Anyone can advertise and comment on parts, upgrades, and accessories. I appreciate the skills on the road.applications here. You can’t find that everywhere.
Love from india :)
How would you change this to work with the tight, blind corners we have in North Carolina?
Tight, blind corners are everywhere....even 2 miles away from where this video was taken....doesn't matter. These tips apply everywhere.
can you please do a video on throttle hand placement? i find myself switching to an angular grip "ala screwdriver" when entering into the corner , but mainly doing regular "straight" hand style when going into it. is this normal? do you switch your grip up mid corner to maintain maintenance throttle while counter steering? maybe do a camera just on your hand while on a sport bike / naked bike
screwdriver grip is only for full body position, only for right hand turns...and it's personal preference. Unless you're hanging off really far while going right, it's irrelevant.
I don't do anything with my hand on the street....I just hold the grip like normal.
brother, thanks for the informative video. i just have a question: how do you protect yourself from vehicles that overshoot at high speeds in twisties?
may be unheard of where you're from, but it's insanely common where i'm from. and yes, i mean head-on collisions in curves. im not trying to be the "correct" one in the road. just wanna ride, have fun, and survive + hate it when my bike gets scratches, im sure you know the feeling XD
will really appreciate any input. thanks again.
I don't ride on weekends anymore on these twisty corners. Weekdays are almost empty.
but either way, I just always anticipate it and ready to react
Around the 4:40 mark. Could you explain if you use your foot pegs to help you steer. Another valuable way to get input to your motorcycle is to present pressure to the corresponding left or right footpeg. I trained doing this, in a safe environment, where you would steer the motorcycle, without your hands on the bars, to control the direction of the bike. PS. I personally would take issue with your statement that there are no down sides to being against the centre line entering a bend. As I ride here in the UK there are many issues with doing that. In general yes, you want to get as much view as you can entering the bend. However, in the UK these bends can be very sharp, or going over blind rises and often fast moving. If a vehicle is coming in the opposite direction and has crossed the centre line, then you could have a head on collision. Or even wing mirrors on a seven ton truck could take you out. In which case I would argue that there 'are' downsides that you must take into account. The other point I noticed, is that I have never heard you talk about the 'Vanishing Point'. The point of the road where the left and right edges of the road come together on a bend. If the vanishing point is moving away from you, to the left or right, that tells you the road is curving more away from you (left or right), then you should slow down. If it is moving towards the centre, then the road is straightening up and you can apply more throttle. Are you aware of this concept? As it is certainly part of UK advanced riding doctrine.
Listen to the whole video, I explain it’s all irrelevant and pushing down does nothing for steering…you can make the bike lean, on cruise control very slightly but that’s not going to help you in the canyons
@@MotoJitsu I did watch the whole vid first. I'm talking from a UK perspective. The roads are very different here. Which is why I presented the question of 'vanishing point' to you. Is that something you are aware of? The 'vanishing point' indicates whether a bend is 'tightening' or 'opening'; depending on whether the 'vanishing point' is moving the the left or right; or moving to the centre. To get a good UK perspective, I can recommend a book you may be interested in? This is the tomb of all motorcycle training courses in the UK. It is called - 'Motorcycle Roadcraft: The Police Rider's Handbook'. There are other titles too. Though they are all based on both the traffic rules, and more importantly, how Police riders would do it in the UK. A nerd like you might enjoy going over this for similarities and differences.
And I meant 'Nerd' in a good way; not a bad way. I respect what you do.
doesn't matter where you are...putting pressure on the peg doesn't do anything. Yes, I've heard it all before...and that book that apparently all of you think was handed down by god or something...I read it...some good info...some stuff, very wrong. It's basic...much more to learn beyond that one book. Go read 10 high level motorcycle books and take 10 formal, in person high level courses...keep learning.
Gem!
But, start to accelerate slowly (not full throttle) at decreasing lean angle helps the bike straiten up. Off cause counter steering doing whole work, but with little bit acceleration it's feel more natural and easy. I'm missing something?
Do you have a video on low speed steering?
hundreds
Great video - thanks
Can this be improved? I’m only asking because I’m lazy LOL
The first point about where to look….can you add (after the fact) where you are looking ? Is that possible?
Keep up the good work mate
on my intended path of travel..that's where I'm looking
🤔 straight lining makes sense on track when you want to be as quick as possible, but on twisties it kinda takes away the whole point of curvy riding, but I get the point why it's done.
Less energy, more efficient, less lean, less risk, quicker speed, you’re still cornering obviously just slightly straighter w/all those benefits. There’s no downside.
@@MotoJitsu I think he is saying he wants to get a good lean on. might wanna do a vid on how to make that safer for those that want that sort of thing. went on a ride this weekend and a learner rider parked next to me and started talking to his friends about how much "chicken strips" he had on his tires in comparison to them. I had a chat with them and they just like getting low. I'd guess they are actively doing the opposite of racing lines to get that low on that road, but meh
I have 4 videos on chicken strips and how absolutely stupid it is…you can still get your “lean” on by doing what I’m talking about in the video.
@@MotoJitsu you can, but to get the same lean you would have to go faster because your taking the corners properly. I'm not sure the increased speed to reach a certain lean level thus adrenaline level is safer or not.
Hi MotoJitsu. I'm not even a rookie. Moto school courses will start soon. i have 1 questions: 1. What if you're up hill, and you have a hair pin(180 ) right hand curve with 25% degrees ramp(25 meters up, at 100 meters drive)? (That one, is harder also for car drivers)
Slow down....better come out safe.....no speed required
I wish I could pay you to be my live instructor for a month :).
Ive been scanning half the speed you were showing. Thanks, Ill move my eyes faster.
Hello friend.
May I ask you a favor pls?
would you please add greek subtitles to your videos?
So I will be able to understand 100% everything you say.
Your video' s are very interesting!
Thank you!
👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
I've been driving for a few weeks and I noticed I have a tendency to use my rear brakes when slowing down for a turn (along with engine braking if need be). I often times don't use my front brakes unless I am coming to a stop or really need to slow down. I feel like my front breaks are over kill for the amount of braking I often need.
Being a beginner I have no clue if this is a good thing to do or not. Perhaps someone could enlighten me?
only depends on how much you have to slow down...sometimes I don't use the brakes at all because it's not needed.
But not to know how to use the front brake is setting yourself up for failure.
Go practice stopping as fast as you can from 20mph over and over until you can do it perfect 9/10 times...which means you can stop 15ft or less
@@MotoJitsu I just thought of the reason I might be using the rear brake more. I believe it is easier for me to downshift and rev match using the rear.
I live in a hilly area and there are a lot of turns in the middle of hills.
I will down shift to engine brake while going down hill and use my rear when I pull in the clutch to prevent me from speeding up.
I just drove a bit after writing that and realized why I'm doing it. I guess I was doing it without thinking about doing it.
I really don't have a good place to practice emergency stopping where I live. I live about half an hour by highway (I don't feel comfortable enough to go on the highway) from a place I could practice that.
There is a small place that I practice slow speed turns. I think the most I could do is maybe 15mph but that might be pushing it.
For reference, I drive a rebel 250.
Thanks for the quick reply. Often times creators will ignore any comments unless it is their most recent video. Keep up the good work.
I wouldn’t worry about revmatching at all since you been riding so short and use the front brake for downhill, and don’t pull in the clutch either.
@@MotoJitsu I'm just use to revmatching, almost every car I own has been a standard. Standard doesn't seem very standard anymore. Honestly, I find it easier to do on a bike as you can hear the engine easier.
I use heel toe to down shift a car when I need to brake and shift at the same time, I suppose that is the reason I do it on a bike.
I'm not exactly sure what you are saying.
Are you telling me not to downshift going downhill? Some of the hills here are very steep with sharp bends in them. I'd likely have to brake while in the turns to keep a safe speed if I didn't engine brake. I get a little worried when breaking while turning, I try to avoid it even in a car.
Or are you telling me to downshift without the clutch? I know this is possible in a car but if done wrong you could damage your transmission. Is it the same for a bike?
I’m saying rev-matching isn’t something to do or even worry about…if you need to downshift then downshift but rev-matching isn’t necessary at all.
Downhill is all about front brake confidence and you don’t touch the clutch unless you’re shifting, certainly don’t pull it in and coast while cornering
Don’t let the bike be in charge of you, you be in charge of it! 💎
How do you not get bent out of shape when your looking through a corner and a car comes from the other lane and blocks that line of sight?
What good would that do?
1st 👊🏻✊🏻
Isn’t the middle of the lane the most dangerous portion of the lane to ride? That is, that’s where grease and dirt from vehicles accumulates so isn’t that the slickest most dangerous place to ride?
that's only true at intersections where cars are sitting there idling or just after a rainstorm or something
Does ur bike show
Km or miles ?
I live in San Diego dude, why would it be km? Lol
@@MotoJitsu
TH-cam suggested ur video while Scrolling
And I merely scanned ur video a bit
I had no idea u lived in San Diego..
Why wud I ask if I knew.. That u were filming in non metric usa.
Lol 😂
Just incase if u didn't realise..
Your videos get shown all over the world to ppl who can comprehend English even if English is merely a 4th or a 5th language for some of us.
And Americans always get surprised when they come across, that a large part of the world follows the metric system.
Easy to figure out this was in the US therefore mph
I felt like you repeating yourself a lot but was pretty informative
Last time I came this early I got dumped 😂
😂😂😂😂
Giggity!
She wasn't worth it bro 😂
I’m a puller
if you didn't learn anything from watching a MotoJitsu video..... watch it again
after watching this a few times and paying attention to my counter steering, I initially push the direction I intend to go then push and pull through the corner. Seems to work for me?. Thank You for your instruction!. 😎🇬🇧🍣🍻🪂
