Josh, loved watching you at Road America earlier this month. What a great weekend even with the sketchy weather on Saturday. I'd love to see a video on how you pick and memorize your brake points, apexes, and corner exits, along with gear choice in each corner. I'm sure when you do it every day, it becomes second nature, but as a primarily street rider who's starting to do track days this summer, building the mental frame of mind to deliberately choose those points is decidedly further down the priority list than watching for gravel, deer, oncoming tractors, texting drivers, etc. When I'm way out in the country and can let my guard down a bit, I try to practice that, but unless you go ride the same stretch of road over and over again (not popular with the people living along that stretch), it's difficult to build the visual/muscle memory when each new corner presents it's own set of variables.

Do you take physical notes on markers? Everything just from memory and seat time? How about your thought progression on going to a track that you haven't been to in a while? It's great hearing the inside scoop on these sorts of things!

Hi Josh, Thank you for the awesome material. I have a question for you. When you are at the end of a long straightway, you shift your body, half butt, to lean, and dip down and drag your knee. While applying the brakes and shifting down the gears, you feel your rear wheel trying to pass forward your front wheel. Is it the moment that you grab the clutch and hit the friction zone to avoid it?

I am a little confused about the dynamic of quickly down shifting as soon as the braking starts. I am thinking of RPM's and the rear if done quickly at 160+ mph. How quick is this? Is it done late with hard breaking so that the bike slows down quick enough so you 're not in too low of a gear for the speed?

Josh, Thank you so much for the instructional videos you put out. I am a fast intermediate trackday rider with aspirations to do some local racing in the next 24 months. I hope you will clarify something you said in this video at 6:43. I practice braking technique as described by many others such as: Sylvain Guitoli Simon Crafar Kevin Schwantz Life at Lean and many others. When i brake for a corner i get my hard braking done early and taper off to trail braking. In you video you mentioned that you start braking gently and brake harder as you get deeper into the braking zone which seems opposite to the technique which i use. Are you describing that you dont stab but gently but quickly squeeze to hard braking early in the braking zone as i do it and then taper off as necessary before switching to turn in and trail braking or are you saying that you do gentle braking early and brake harder and harder in the braking zone until you reach 100% braking just before your turn in point? This question is is assuming being on track doing laps where i am improving as a rider and not necessarily trying to brake super late to pass a competitor. Thank you for your consideration. TommyG

Why is abs good on the street? because the street has oil, coolant, sand from the shoulder or gravel trucks, coffee, nails, trucker bombs and other invisible fod. I have abs fingers but abs sensors are pretty fast and will keep the rubber down if they can. If your trail braking and you roll over something slick like a tar boil it's got a good chance of saving your skin.

Any tips on the basic form of throttle control and countersteering? IE for street riding... staying in your lane without going too wide or hitting the apex too early or knowing street lines?
@lillnemo1
@lillnemo1 5 жыл бұрын
both 2 first questions, shame on you if you really have to ask. Throttle control? dont ever get OFF the gas in a corner, start giving throttle ONLY if you can keep it open. Starting throttle is ALWAYS gentle, never jerk the gas open. If you have a jerky bike, start opening the throttle just that eeniewieny tiny bit earlier, so your bike settles a bit before you realy start giving gas. Sometimes this means even before the corner or apex. Countersteering is something natural. 99.9999999% of time you dont even realize you push the bar. You lean the bike by hanging off a bit (which causes the bike to countersteer by itself) and "push" the wrong side of the bar. For left corner "push" right bar forward. While riding, you dont use more than 15degrees steering angle on the tightest corner... Thats how little steering input you need!!! more angle is only for parking, manouvering.. You dont keep pushing the steering, just initiate the corner.... street riding? if you go wide after the corner, you were inside too much before it. It's always the same thing, be it on track or street; outside, inside, outside. So if you live where people drive on the right side of the road and you take a right corner: keep as far left as possible on YOUR lane, "steer in as late as possible", go as far right as possible in the corner AKA hitting the APEX of the corner, then you have max width available to get out of corner. street lines??? just see YOUR LANE as the width of the track... then use what s said earlier: out in out hitting the apex too early? something you need to learn yourself. if you hit it early, you run wide or have to brake extra or have to close throttle... if so, learn from it and do different next time different corners = different apex different weather = different "apex" different bike = different lines aka different apex hope that's what you wanted to know?

@@lillnemo1 you can roll off the gas mid corner. Obviously not abruptly. But if you roll off gently and incrementally you can. Thats how you adjust line mid corner. Shame on you for giving stupid ass advice that can get someone hurt. and better advice would be. Excluding double apexes(really long turns) that require neutral or maintenance throttle (steady throttle to keep you on your line) you can get back on the gas. but dont open up until you can see your exit and gradually take away lean. Again rolling on and off gas is how you adjust your line. more gas = run wide less gas = tighten line. So if you took a corner too fast and find yourself running wide in a corner. look where you need to go and gradually roll off the fucking gas. You can even lightly lightly lightly use the brake. But please remember smoothness is the critical aspect to all of this.

BikeLife Soldier it’s an Ohvale 190 from risemoto.com. I’m not sure how much it weighs but I can pick it up and load it into my truck by myself. 😂

Can you explain the leg dragging thing that’s become popular? Never quite figured out how you still grab the tank with your knees when you have a leg hanging off the bike... but many top riders are doing it, so I assume it has some purpose?

I suppose it's done after most of the braking, just before the entry

The reason for the leg is its another point of support. Knee puck on the ground use to hold urself up some more. Bars tank ground 3 points of support

you mean on a street/sportsbike? ever so slightly use the rear brake just before you lean into corner and trailbrake it off (sorry, not native english)... mind you, only a VERY small % of riders uses rear brake and of them quite a lot remove a part of brake pad material, so chance of locking up is smaller. Rear brake lock is last you want in a corner if you have a slipperclutch, just bang down through the gears fast enough and enter corner fast enough, the slipperclutch does the rest. hope thats the answer you re looking for?

Thanks gents. Much appreciated. I race regionals in South Africa on a 600. My pace is only approximately 1.5secs off the lap record but Ive always keep the wheels tracking straight in the braking zones. A part of me thinks that backing it in might be able to give me a a little bit more pace.

@@lillnemo1 I do have a slipper clutch. I have had instances where the back end will step out after my final down shift but it's never stepped out and stayed that way. So I'm curious as to how to initiate a controlled one and then correct it.

@@masterpayne3791 since you're already racing 600 then maybe Simon Crafar's Motovudu is the way to go. Don't remember if he covers backing it in as separate technique but should certainly discuss it since he enters lot of corners with slightly sliding rear wheel.

Trevor Groeneveld don’t worry. They’ll be back. I just have to make sure people know it’s a joke. They take these videos way too serious. That’s a good thing, I guess.
