What are some easy ways to corner faster on a motorcycle?
Lets figure out why being light on the brakes is a good thing, why we should either be braking or being on the throttle, why short shifting can be a good idea and maybe we should try out moving around less?

Nice video but your description of short shifting is incorrect. Short shifting traditionally means shifting UP earlier than you would otherwise during acceleration. Not when braking.

That's my understanding of short shifting as well. Shifting up before the usual revs to get to the proper gear of a corner. For instance, between corners 2 and 3 in Jerez: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/fayin82LlsDGhp8.html

"Well setup" for oversteering on throttle is key here. My 2019 ZX6R understeered on stock settings as soon as I went on the throttle and/or left off the brakes. To fix this I had to raise the rear by 3mm with a shim (not by increasing preload) and accelerate the rebound setting on the fork. Now it keeps the radius inside the corner and I am able to tighten the line on-throttle.

I learned the first tip playing IoM:Ride on the Edge 2. Its better to enter some corners braking early to get traction and exit faster than braking late and having a slower exit. Also, same happens on AWD vs RWD cars on Forza. For the superior acceleration of AWD, you need to enter with a lot of speed, have the traction and exit faster.

Now I do it everyday, it's become a part of my riding. Also makes me feel cool haha.

Definitely good tip to just staying neutral on a supermoto and just flow with the track. If you (which I did before) try to hang off or push the bike under you there is a risk of you giving too much force upon the bike and the you get stiff making it more prone to loss of traction. :)

I had my bike for about 2 ½ months now and just got my permit to ride. I've been only been able to practice once or twice week since having my bike. What I find difficult is trying to maneuver at slow speeds while cornering. Because I'm doing it with only clutch control before giving her throttle, I feel my bike wanting to give out half way into the turn and at times find myself having the strength to left it up from trying to fall, or just have a slowmo fall with it (since I put on the crash bars) and learn how to properly left up a fallen bike. It is true what my friend and family say "it's easier to go fast than it is to go slow"...
@vicfema
@vicfema 2 жыл бұрын
If we are talking really slow maneuvering try having your bike in first gear, don't touch the clutch, give it a little bit of throttle and break a little with your rear brake. Try it out in a parking lot or something, you can play with how much rear brake you give your bike. It will feel a lot more stable in slow speed. Personally I use a little of rear break in 2nd gear hairpin turns, gives me stability and confidence.

On my mountain bike, I let my body take the inside line and make my bike steer out to the outside/wider line. This is essentially a counter steer + deep lean, when i steer the bike back to catch my body. The idea carries if I'm going through S-bends... my body can sort of be going straight down the middle while the bike alone follows the S-bends. I'm not moving my body; i'm moving the bike and letting my body "fall" into that position.

Early 90's bikes (especially older tourers) do require a lot of brake pressure that can't be applied with 2 fingers, except ur Superman. Same with my 80's Goldwing, 2 fingers aren't gonna cut it for heavy breaking. You sacrifice some throttle and steering control, but that's the way it is.

how to combine brake and downshifting on apex?
@miroslavmilan
@miroslavmilan 2 жыл бұрын
It’s too late to be downshifting on apex. It’s also unsettling the bike and your body position. Downshift while braking before you start to lean into the corner. Engine braking also helps to slow down the bike. Trail brake while leaning into the corner. Ease off the brake as you approach apex. Transition from braking to small amount of throttle shortly before apex. Roll off the throttle from apex towards exit.

Rear brakes will lock up faster than front brakes because while braking the weight is automatically transferred to the front = less grip with ur rear tire = locks up Thats also the reason why front brakes are always bigger than rear brakes because in the rear you don't need a lot of brake power

id add one more big even a huge thing. When your using both hands for steering whey actually compete with each other. And in corners its much better to use only the inside arm for steering. It can be inconvenient at the beginning and kind of tricky coz without that another hand trying to steer too, the impact will be bigger at first. So one should be careful learning it. But gush how much more control you have when only one hand a time turns that bar

You not only win a second or a half coz you don't need to move it there, but you also dont open up throttle before breaking. If your finger are not there yet, to put it there your hand unconsciously opens the throttle. Again, one finger is much more sensitive but 2 is good as well. Depends on how you already have learned and how stiff your lever and how strong is you fingers. You can learn both ways and than choose.

the key on that is oversteer, check a video explaining oversteer vs understeer and you will understand the point, in short oversteer is forcing your rear wheel to slide a bit while in the turn, it changes the direction where the front of the bike is pointing and makes the radius smaller, kinda a high level technique and your bike as he said has to be properly setup...leave it for track days only don't go thinking on doing this stuff on the streets X)

@@fuzzfizz mmm, well let me tell you most of this advises are advance tips to get better lap times on the track, i mean you could use this on the street but at your own risk of crashing cause of road conditions...at high speed when you add enough pressure to the front brake the weight goes forward as he mentions in the video, so your shifting will not dramatically change the fact that the whole bike and yourself are going forward compressing the front adding max grip to front tire and expanding the rear, this loose of weight on the rear means the wheel loses some grip, and so it can slide way easier, is a weight transfer affecting the suspension which affects the grip of the tires, that's my cheap explanation anyway X), check some videos on you tube about loading the front end by braking before cornering for better explanations ^^
