I have to watch it over and over again, and then practice to fight with my fear. Butt&knees, no fighting with steering. Should go in right direction. Thanks for this encyclopedia of handling the bike!

I love the explanation that you need perfect body control to be able to let the handlebar rotate. I was always under the impression that I would let my handlebar rotate and wondered why I had these scary moments when the rear of the bike started to fall or the rear tire was slipping. The truth is that I failed to leave the handlebar without force as a light touch is still too strong. But what was not clear to me in the video is the "good" way to increase the leaning speed. If I do not countersteer it takes too long to lean. I often see racers that seem to fall to their sides before the bend and I cannot imagine how they do that without countersteering.

Top explanations, thanks a lot!

Superb, this is by far the most comprehensive (understanding) animated explanation video I have ever seen. Chapeau!

Amazing, thank you for taking the time to make these videos because they help so much. The way you show and explain is very well done! Cheers!🍻

I came back from Metz doing the course last weekend and feel like sharing a few words. If you catch yourself watching Anti Pilote de Ligne Droit videos more than twice, it's time for you to plan yourself a trip to France. :) It will be more than worth it, you will learn a lot and acquire fantastic new skills which may also save you from a possible future crash, if you rely solely on countersteering to turn and one day slippery surface betrays you. This is more than just riding a motorcycle, it's about increasing overall awareness and proprioception about you and your body. If you have ever done any martial art in your life, you'll find strong resemblence, it's about finding that fine delicate feel for things and perfecting it. Yes, this is a martial art, and Clément is a sensei. A motorcycle Yoda which will show you your way to become a Jedi knight. :) He'll take you into the deep dark forest where 2+2=5 and you cannot (!) fall of the motorcycle. You'll be up exploring the uncharted territory through a series of challenging tasks and brilliant exercises and each will grab you way out of your comfort zone but at the end you will manage!!! :) Come fit! The body effort needed to lean the motorcycle Japanese style is very tough on your core, as you need to hold your body yourself at all times, so better come as fit as you can, do stability exercises, planks, side planks and push-ups. Come prepared! Study all the major Anti Pilote de Ligne Droit videos so you can ask all the right questions. Take your girlfriend/wife with you! Metz is a beautiful place and France at its best! The closest international airport to Metz is in Luxembourg, which is only 1h train ride away. That's a convenient way to arrive. My advice: take a week off and do two courses on two consecutive weekends!

Thank you so much sir.your other videos were not in English so I comment in that please do videos in English and finally you done it.This helped me a lot.I really appreciate sir.once again thank you so much.please upload more like this videos of leaning and cornering and bike geometry in English.Thank You Sir. ❣️ Love You.... ❣️

One of the best explanations out there. Thank you, again!

I’m so grateful for finding this channel. I’ve watched many of your videos now and then went to practice. Within 45 seconds I was doing smooth, tight figure 8’s near full lock. It was easy. Almost immediately I conquered my fear of leaning the bike. Amazing content, thank you! To clarify, use front break heading into the u turn, let up on the front break as you’re turning and then exiting and accelerating? Thank you again! 🙏

I just subbed! This is just great stuff, intuitive, with graphics and you're actually, mentally thinking about it! Cheers!

Thank you for providing this in English. I know that I fight the rotation of the handlebar because I am afraid to fall and drop my bike, and that is precisely why I can't seem to make the sharp u-turn. So many instructors teach, slipping the clutch, using the rear brake BUT no one tells you that you are just manipulating the geometry of the motorcycle to make the turn. Smooth throttle, brake to shorten the bike, counter steer to initiate a fall (lean) digressively release the brake and allow the handlebar to rotate in the direction of the fall to balance the motorcycle and finally smooth throttle to complete your trajectory. How do you recommend training yourself to do this, basically how to master each step until you can do this safely and confidently.

Very good explanation, thank you very much! Your channel open my eyes to what I have been doing intuitively.

The best technical video tutorial on MotorBikes

This is the best video to learn how to do Moto-Gymkhana turns. I was always trying to lean the bike by counter-steering and then tried like a MAD-DOG to turn the handlebars in the direction of where I want to turn. Guess what happens, the moment that I tried to turn the handlebar in the direction of the turn, the BIKE STRAIGHTENS UP straight away and the the turns are wide. This video (You need to watch it 10 times to understand it). It basically tells you to lean the bike WITHOUT counter-steering, so the bike is leaning with both wheels pointing in the same direction (of where you want to turn) and once you slow down (using the front brake) the handlebar is so easy to turn and thus achieve a FULL-LOCK. Use the front brake to carry momentum forward and tap the rear brake as you come out of the turn, while keeping the revs. FANTASTIC MERCI MERCI GREAT VIDEO

I'm a new rider and I am learning so much. I hope one day to come and take classes.

Excellent job! Thanks for sharing this amazing knowledge.

Great channel and good videos, full of info! Thanks! Safe riding

Gr8 as always. Better than ever. Linda thing u can watch all over. Good luck on Catalonia Greetings from Poland 🙂

Magnific! The best I have seen so far. Thanks!!

Thank you, very interesting. So much information to digest and experiment with. 😀

This is a very good tutorial. Thank you so much

Thank you 🙏🏼

Great explanation. It's as if we have to contract the inner hip muscle and the outer leg muscle during the turn?? Merci pour la vidéo en anglais et votre excellent travail. Salutations de la Turquie.

Amazing, fantastic, mind blown 😲

真是非常之认真、专业

I was surprised to see that place at 3:49, I practice there sometimes, didn't know you've been in Prague (:

and where did it go ? it can run like this forever :)))) Great stuff, I'm trying to get the most of it.

Do you use a throttle lock when doing no hand manoevres like at 13:37? I have tried to do no handed rotations in 1st and 2nd gear but I have the impression that at this speed, the turning radius in a stable turn is really small (my speed was about 15 km/h). I would love some advice on that. Great vids btw!

So am i doing a right thing when turning, and cornering on the road? Correct me if iam wrong 1. Before turning i set my speed with front brake, zero throttle 2. I counter steer so the bike start leaning still zero throttle but still hold the front brake. no force on handle bars just let it doing his job 3. In the middle of the corner i start give throttle to maintain the speed, increase it little by little as the bends almost to end. (If the bends are tight, and i need to decrease the radius i drag the rear brake but still on the throttle). 4. Then i give more throttle to straighten up my bike on exit corner.

Great video. Didn’t you use the clutch when turning? How about the speed of bike when you turn?

T'as réinventé l'electricité, avant on avais une relation tripartite resistance tension courant, maintenant on as vitesse braquage angle

Hmm. To lean the bike : use the hip and outside thigh to slow the rotation of handlebars into right direction ?

i thought falling is part of the bike riding.. but it appears after watching your videos. scientifically a bike will not fall no matter what.

Thanks. It needs to chew items more and more.

Have you ever tried doing this on a triumph STREET triple 675 .??

my bike will do it my head won't

How can i easily hold full lock turn specially making circle? I always practice that but my arms keep fighting

Superb! :D

Can i foud this in hindi or full english somewhere ? Plz

Top! 🌸

Hey can I lean my moped 150cc motorcycle for cornering using my buttocks and knee weight without using steering/handling to lean? But im afraid to practice this because if I fell down my coverset will be destroyed and handle also will run out of its position and needs to be adjusted to make it straight again.

Hi, what do you mean with "to contract buttock knee sections"? Do you mean to push the legs on the side of the tank? Thanks in Advance! :)

surpurb content only if you can explain everything better.
