You have to be the best You Tube instructor I've seen!! Very detailed and the use of your visuals and voice instruction, makes learning easier.
❤️👍🏼
I'm just at a point where I start feeling a little more confident and comfortable, as a newbie rider with 6K kms on my bike. This is excellent food for thought. I'll be hearing your brake-brake-braaaaaake in my head when riding, I'm sure. 😄 Thank you!
you're welcome!
I have been watching many, many videos about trailbreaking during the years but I never quite got my head around how it actually should be done until I saw this one and it suddenly clicked! Thank you ever so much! 😃👍🏻
glad to hear it
I agree entirely, I never understood it properly, like the holy grail of biking. I got it now!
This was truly one of the greatest videos on cornering! Fantastic job! Loved it to bits
Brake braaake brake brake breakkkkeee... Yup this is what I'll be hearing in my head when I finally go to practice😅
Awesome video
thanks

What until the first time you run out of brakes on a bike. Either because you broke too late or some other reason, like slippery surface.
It will amazing you how well you can dance! Especially if you can't simply get off the brakes.
Awesome Greg.
SO GLAD I’m a subscriber. You explain everything so well and don’t let us feel like idiots. Thanks from a new rider.
thanks
This is my first comment. While a watcher and rider for 58 years, and I’ve seen great videos, yours is perhaps the most clearly demonstrated. As a teacher, coach, and instructor in several disciplines, I admire your clarity.
My own thoughts are more braaaaakkkkkkaaakkkeeekkeee. Minute changes to pressure. I will never say brake, brakes, brake.... to myself, but I appreciate the simplicity and it enforces maintaining pressure, adjusting pressure until you see your escape.
I have forwarded this to several experienced riders I know. Only they can really appreciate it. That said, it will help intermediate riders a lot.
❤️❤️👍🏼👍🏼
I've been watching your videos for a while now while saving for my first bike. I think you are the number youtube instructor on the net by far you deserve a medal for what you are doing. Also I hope you channel grows because this is a must for any new or intermediate rider. Thanks for everything !!
Your riding videos have and always will be the best. Love your tone and the way you clearly say what you’re doing and why. Good quality video and sound thanks again!
Thanks!! :) SHARE IT
I did the Champ U and it’s so good. I love how you reference them, you put what they do into practice and it’s great that you say when you are braking and throttle.
The title is soo click bait but for once i agree with it.
Nobody does it better than Motojitsu. Thank you sir.

Love the concept of "maintenance throttle" through the curve. You're a talented instructor. Thanks for all you do!
:) nothing new
How I wish I had accessed this knowledge within my first few years of riding. It would have definitely saved me from quite a few crashes and damaged bikes. Keep up the excellent content!
:)

How many crashes have you had??
@@darrylford6844 About half a dozen
@@id.747 Seriously? Not being nasty but you should really invest in training courses or schools. That's way too many in that amount of time. Slow it down and practice more then build up your speed.
Great video as always. I actually started doing a running commentary when practicing out on the twisties and it really helps enforce these techniques.
You are the best moto instructor on TH-cam! Always straight and clear...keep it that way onwards. Love the video👏👍🎉
Used to ride quite a bit. Then this thing I grew quite fond of crawled out of my wife. Now, 16 years later, I got a bike again.
LOVE your videos. Have helped me get back in the saddle so much. Every 3-4 days I hit the empty HS stadium (this is Texas so it's a large stadium) parking lot to practice my slow speed turns.
Thank you again, please keep it up!
Best video I've seen explaining braking in corners. Acceleration and vision out. Thank you Greg 👍

Love these training videos! Wonderful having all sorts of cameras nowadays. Thank you! 😊💗
Really appropriate all of your videos, you break things down in a simple way for everyone to understand. Thanks MJ!
This is the best explanation of cornering AND trail-braking I have ever seen…great video and until I can get to champ school, I will continue to watch the online course, shut-up and practice…thank you and safe travels all…
thanks
MotoJitsu.com for my App, books, merch, affiliate links, etc.
I have trouble to understand the trail-breaking: when I apply the front brake ever so slighty while also not giving speed-> I would come to a full stop pretty soon within a corner...
Do you apply speed while holding the front brake(preasure) ??
Plain and simple as usual. Thanks for sharing your knowledge and experience with us🙏
thanks

Thank you for these beautiful videos you prepare for us.I have been your follower from a long time now.Everyrhing you teach us makes sense and you explain it in a very understandable way so makes it easy for us to understand.The first Motorbike I bought was a Yamaha R1 2007,very powerful and fast for a first bike but your videos really helped me and made it easy for me.Thank you and keep up your great work
I want to thank you for your videos, all of them! Very instructive content in terms of safety, ride technics, educative...just excellent, I can not not call it better than EXCELLENT! Thanks to share and to help us to be better drivers, to understand things about motorcycle riding, to be SAFE and to enjoy it more!!!
I'm just a few weeks into riding.... SO glad I watched this. Not only is it well presented and super clear, but gives me confidence because this is pretty much what I have been doing. I was so unsure if it technically correct, but it felt right to me! I've so much to learn and I'm loving every single little trimph
Canyon Chasers and Moto Control are quality channels too.
Thank you! I am a 62 year old new rider & I really appreciate your channel!
welcome!!

Gary, I am 63 yo and everyone says I’m nuts to try to get my license. Good to hear others did it too. Wish me luck trying to balance a bike
Great content! Some people learn by watching or visualizing while listening. Great instructor, and yes, more options in the corner are always better.
Learned huge amounts on your ride! Thanx!!
Bro, this is a wicket video. Very well done. I have a 12 hour night shift to do very soon, and I consider these videos of yours, as doing something positively awesome. Mental preparation for the ride. Thank you.
Ride safe everyone. Much ❤️.
thanks :)
I'm in the UK, I passed my test 3 months ago, bought a bike too big for me and (almost) completely lost my confidence. Then I came across your brilliant videos and I've learnt so much, my riding has improved massively and I'm a lot more confident, I can't thank you enough!
Inspirational!!
How did you do that without doing a CBT and running around on a 125 for a bit?
@@walruswarlock4800 I did my CBT, then I did some training, then I took MOD 1 and 2 exams. Then I bought a Tiger 800 😊
These are the best TH-cam instructional videos. Fun, light, lots of repetition, down to earth. Thanks! ❤️❤️
This is a really good video for me as I've been trying to rebuild my confidence. As I've ridden that road I appreciate your continues comments. You remind me Of an automotive driving instructor who had us talking through every action. Thanks.
Dude, you're the Man, thank you for these very instructive videos!

Finally understand it. The best dang cornering instructional video. Thank you so so much.
I just passed my test UK and this is how I naturally approach the turns. I thought I was being slow and over cautious but after riding with experienced guys realise I am riding the same as them and just being safe and having fun.
This is, probpably, the most simplest and explanation of how to choose the lines, apex, braking, lean angle, and accel out of a turn. Damn, Good job on this vid example. 👏
Thanks 😊
I bought the YCRS online course based on your recommendation (and the best part is it is on sale right now). Tremendous value for the money! Thanks for the tip. Highly appreciated!
Awesome! ❤️👍🏼
Yes the cornering information is the best I’ve heard thus far. Thank you sir!
your always good at explaining and making it more easy for us to understand and actually helped me to gain some confidence behind the wheel ..always a fan of yours ed . cheers
thanks

I've never had confidence around bends on tarmac. I thought perhaps it is because I first learnt to ride off road. But this video was really good, I'm that guy who tries to slow down and come completely off the brakes before I lean the bike. No wonder I've struggled into and out of corners and never had any confidence nor did I ever felt like I knew what I was doing. Can't wait to practise this, the bit where you talked about your braking column and that yours includes the first half of the turn was really good info. I mean it was all good but that bit will help me a lot and braking till you can see the exit. Damn, that is so clear, thanks very much. So well explained. Good teachers is able to get their students to understand them and you do that.
Confidence in the brakes gives confidence with everything.
Slow, select gear, lean n ride it through the bend is how I was taught. It’s like launching into the unknown n I too lacked corner confidence. I know people who do it at pace but it’s hit n miss. Ya might be lucky now get a clear run or the bend may not tighten up on ya. This had done so much for my confidence. Much more in control
So this is where you went this morning! The video turned out great! Next time I'll ride on the back and record? :)
😳
Excellent video. I live in a mountainous area featuring lots of narrow twisty roads going up- or downhill, so what you say about positioning and creating options to be able to react makes a lot of sense to me
The best cornering video ever. I have learned trail braking technique out of this video however is very difficult to convince other riders to use brake into the corner.
Greg, repetition makes one perfect and your videos bring the best out of everyone. Thank you - Senior Noob.
Thanks
Always learn something watching your videos. Can you do a video like this showing what to do when you are going into a corner too fast? I've seen so many crashes from people going in way too hot.
I have videos like that
Planning to get my 1st bike and I’m learning so much from you. Best instructor by far IMO.
Great video, thank you very much! quick question, when you are braking before cornering with such slow speeds, do you still do counter steering?
You have SO much experience, you are working on your craft constantly, and you still use the break when entering a corner. I like the sensible approach and, as new rider, I follow that approach to.
Every other week I will go on Sunday tours with a team of bikers who are a lot more experienced than I am (the guy who plans the routes has been riding for over 40 years). They are good riders, not doing stupid stuff, yet I NEVER see their brake lights go on. I can only conclude that they choose to "hope that the bike will slow down enough by rolling off the throttle" and just lean more, because I cannot reach them. Which means they do not slow down that much.
I have always wandered (still do) how they do it, but I choose not to experiment too much on the twisties. I have narrowed my chicken strips considerably, but that is more due to the experience I am gaining, than winging it and hoping for a positive outcome. I think I am right in doing that... public roads do not usually give you second chances.
many riders don't really know what they're doing
MotoJitsu.com for my App, books, merch, affiliate links, etc.
Depending on what type.of engine you have IE triple or twin and you're in the right gear you can use the throttle to control your speed going into a corner with engine braking Especially with a large capacity v twin or a boxer engine.
It seems that your fellow riders are good bikers.
If you MUST use your brakes on every corner, you might consider reducing your throtle on the straights and ride at a slower pace. This is no motoGP
These guys you are riding with are doing what has been referred to as Riding the Pace. th-cam.com/video/1F1ybtWle_w/w-d-xo.htmlsi=kYtJSJVdWTWkRG_R
Hi. Do you also use countersteering while braking? It was kinda difficult for me to see that. And thanks a lot for the videos :) Got my new bike - not as fast as yours- just a 500 cc. But your videos help me a lot with my confidence. If I lived in the US, I'd ride with you all the time! Safe trips!
The way you ride is golden man. I really like to see that your teaching this concept and not just trying to show off for TH-cam views.
let me know if you're ever in San Diego, we'll go ride!

Beautiful day and road to ride on . Being a bit more to the centerline in a right hand turn gives you a better view of what's coming either in your lane or the oncoming lane . Not to close but enough to see the exit a bit sooner as to plan ahead . Thanks for your videos , they are very helpful and appreciated .
:) thanks

Thank you. Thank you because you're literally saving lives.
Hope so
That's probably very true!
I'm still practicing it, but this is the approach to trail braking I've taken from watching your videos and some other virtual coaches that I've found over the years. Really started to click for me last weekend after months of practice that what it allows is what you mentioned. "Fast in. Fast out." It's extremely fun to do and provides so much peace of mind because I never have to commit to anything blind. I'm wondering if what makes you fast is always what makes you safe or if it's just usually true...
thanks

I love this channel. I learn so much.
Probably the best instruction on TH-cam for learning how to take a corner. thankyou
That bike sounds so good. What a machine, this looks like a real good time
:)

Two Questions: 1. Using the front brake so much, don't the pads wear out quickly? And 2. What about hot brakes with corresponding fading of braking power/
Brake pads are cheap and easy to change....😁
Unless you're on the brakes all the time on a loooong downhill descent (like miles and miles) and it's super hot outside, then you don't need to worry about brake fade.
brake pads are cheaper than crashing...no, they're steel braided brake lines on insanely good brakes

Been watching your videos for a while, great info and excellent explanations 👍🏼. Have been practicing, and I am a better rider now… have had my motorcycle for a few months now… thanks a lot..!!😎👍🏼
Hi Fast Eddie!
Please tell me, when you were a beginner (1st year) how many times did you dropped your bike or took a fall and how did you overcome the anxiety of riding again?
Thank you!
Practice in a controlled environment @motojitsu is the King of the carpark
@@DavidKimbell Thank you for the advice. I am doing that, but the parking lots are plane. Mostly I am having issues with roundabouts and inclined junctions. Anyway, when I'm not feeling confident, or in the mood, I choose not to ride, even though once I am in the saddle and rev a bit the engine, all my concerns are gone :).
in a parking lot...probably 10 or so...on the street a few times

@@MotoJitsu thanks for your reply...we wanted to know how experts were once a LEARNER....
When an expert share their falls/dropping the bike/anxiety/fear experience during their beginner's time..they give us more MOTIVATION..How they stood against all their fears/anxiety.
You are the best Motorcycle teacher EVER..!!!!
Lots of Respect
From INDIA.
You know Motojitsu, I love your videos and approach to teaching, however...I rarely go into a turn while braking unless there is a stopped vehicle (or another obstacle) I didn't see. I will slow it down to a point while upright. Enter the turn neutral throttle, then throttle out of the turn while covering the brake also accelerate out of the turn while completely upright. No ABS on my '05 BMW. Been doing it that way for a long time. PLUS, you are way over the advisory speed limits on those turns! What's the point of going so fast? thanks for sharing brother - ride safe!
At a slower pace, you don't have to do many things.

Thanks dude. Very simple but very informative video. Cornering and the apex is a couple things i really need to work on.
Just another top, top video. I learn so much from these to try out on my bike👍
I'm going to be a dick, and point out that your bike has linked brakes...so you are using the rear brake. You are an awesome teacher! I always learn something.
they're not linked, they're intergrated

@@MotoJitsu Symantecs. The front brake lever activated both wheels. The rear brake pedal operates the rear only. A great system. Still LOVE your channel!
Excellent video and great info. Much appreciated
Learned a lot from your videos so far, and since most of this is covered in the previous ones, some of it many times over, this has become they way I now ride when in a more spirited mood. Most of it is thanks to your advices in past few years. So thank you 👍🍻.
But I write to maybe let you know to include one riding style as a hybrid between relaxed and truly fast. Lets call it safe spirited 😉.
GS (and many others bikes) have such a nice engine breaking, some even variable now, and when coupled with the quick shifter downshifting and just little earlier letting go of the throttle in the straight, it gets you to enter corners in a safe and still fairly fast manner that requires less braking force to even none of it but just covering lever.
One that when compared to hard acceleration on corners exit and hard decelerating late in, actually conservative both, fuel and beake pads (probably tires too) while not taking too much fun put of public road riding.
Of course this does not exclude breaking all together, but it does promote a bit of pre corner speed planing making rider mostly just cover brake with very rare need to actually use it more then few percentage.
Extra benefit of such, just little earlier letting go of throttle is also somewhat calmer, fluent ride, especially when with the passenger.
Now, I how such riding is not the punchline of this demonstration, but it does sit in between full relaxed and blazing fast in fast out, so I think it's a style worth mentioning, since it's also beneficial and very safe (as you go just slightly slower pace, but still cover brake or even trail brake at all times). Not sure if you agree with me on this, but this riding style works good for me, especially when 2up and overloaded. It's still thrilling, but feels more fluent to the passenger.
This is making so much sense! I can’t wait to get out tomorrow and work this!
This may be my favorite technique video of ALL time. Makes me want to go ride and practice right now!
Thank you for this video! I found really helpful when I simulating the throttle and brake control while watching you doing it.

4 months ago when I first got a bike, I was scared of cornering, had bad body position, didn't make use of counter steering and rode with the worst skills ever putting mine and everyone's life in danger. Fast fwd 4 months, I just did a 1800mile round trip from MD to Chicago n back via backroads,freeways, highways, twisties and I owe motojitsu for all the skills that I learned over the past 4 months and ofcourse regular practice. I am much more confident now than I was ever before. Gonna be a patron for life.
nice!!!

This vid helps a lot. I am new to riding on the street and wasn't sure how deep into the corner I should be holding front brake
Amazing video. such great information and also riding with one hand. Wow. Helps me to be a better rider watching all these videos.
MotoJitsu I will not be different with earlier comments. Starting adventure with the bike and I have to say this is a brilliant lesson. Thank you!!!
great ride,great vid, learnt bulk!
Your videos are great, but this one really helped me the most. I just finished my safety riders course, but I struggled with cornering.
Respect !!! This Person does all he can for us to be safe on roads, I got my first street bike 250cc its almost 5 month and I did learned some good thing from your videos. PS UR THE BEST INSTRUKTOR !!!

Very detailed- great positive video
Love this trail Braking demonstrated and explained
👍🏼
The bazooka reference got me Mate 🙂 I'm not sure if you realize how beneficial your videos are for rookie drivers. Best youtube channel with such content on the planet!
Howdy, watching your videos and very impressed with the information. I, like you, was in the military and we had to take the MSR to ride on base. I liked it so much I took three other courses. That however was ten years ago and in the "safe" state of Arkansas. I, now however, live and ride in Northern Thailand. There are really nothing BUT curves up here, the roads often present challenges in sand and gravel on a blind corner, animals (you have't lived until you come around a blind mountain corner to discover an ELEPHANT in the road), and it rains a lot during the season--rotten drivers as well. So, refreshing and practicing what you're talking about, especially in the above video on trail braking is awesome! I've turned my riding club onto your videos and we watch a new Moto Jitsu video at our little get together we have each week and review what we talked about before we do our weekly group ride a couple of days later. I, and the rest of us, are learning a lot and many of my riding buddies talk about how they actually go out and practice what you talk about. So, good stuff brother, hopefully you'll have a bunch more "black belts" riding around SE Asia. Keep it up! Ooo Rah!
Thanks!
As a newbie, this is helpful 🙂. Thank you for sharing
Great video. I was always under the impression you use the front brake to set you up before the corner but get off all front brake once you go into your lean angle. Use only rear brake in corner or trail braking.
