    "Too twisty?"
    Okay, Cinderelli".
    How about the 22 miles of "unpaved " road that is just past the old restaurant and post office that is on the lane and a half width ot Apache Trail that snakes along the Salt River until you come out the other end by the Dam on Roosevelt Lake.
    Pointers? On your head? The only tip that counts is to respect the road. The best I was able to get out of that old trail would be about 20 mph on an "Enduro" bike, because of the narrow width of the road, and the unknown condition of the washboard rutting that hides at every turn until the last quarter mile, where it becomes a paved road by the dam.
    Enjoy the spectacular view. Just remember to respect the ride it lays out for you.

      I had to go slow on the unpaved parts if I expected to have a complete bike to speak of. Seemed counter productive to try to take it rapidly when I was there to take in the views of the Apache Trail.
      A calmer ride is up 89a, west of 17. Prescott, Jerome, and Sedona are the payoffs on that ride. Sedona on weekends suck because of tourist by 89 and 79(?)...ppl crossing the street.

    Viper "Rob', I swear I always get notifications for your bad driver's videos , but not your others , or even 1 short. I tapped the black bell again, but I don't have faith in Y-T notifications . Better check for myself. Damn good rode to ride. Some don't , but I love the desert landscape. I read a migraine was ailing you. I wish I could remember a prescription medicine my mom use to take that helped her somewhat. I know that can be a real bitch.

      TH-cam can be a little frustrating. I stopped getting notifications last year and now just go through my subscription feed multiple times a day, so I can catch vids that my peeps post. I have a prescription for Imitrex, but it only partially works if you catch the migraine in time. Be safe bro.

    Tell Gary to stop looking at his front wheel and get his eyes up and on the vanishing point of the road. That's one reason why his speed is so erratic. He keeps shifting his eyes from directly in front to farther away and back again. Every time he does that he looses his perspective of distance and speed.

      You are 100% correct and I did advise of what you suggest. I also told him to stop applying the brakes while turning, as he was unbalancing the bike.

      ​@@Viper6-MotoVlogger Trying to get all of those bad habits of cagers purged from a new rider is hard. Everyone now-a-days learns to drive automatic transmissions so when you try to introduce the concept of engine braking with throttle control they have a hard time trusting the bike's compression. Another suggestion would be to have him downshift 1 or 2 gears to get his RPM's up. Depending on the bike you may not be getting enough engine braking. I ride a 2004 600RR so I'm not comfortable unless it's at least 7k rpm. Most of the time when I'm riding hard it's between 9-12k rpm, where all of the good engine braking lives.
      Good on you Viper6. Keep teaching, keep, riding, and keep saving lives!

      @@timdavis6088 man, I totally agree with you on all the points you made. Unfortunately, Gary’s bike is a DCT and doesn’t have a clutch. Not sure if it has paddle shifters to change gears and use engine compression. Thanks for the sub and be safe out there.
