These ride-along videos with you are just so valuable. They help counteract my inferiority complex about being too slow at the apex when I see other riders who seem to be riding faster through the apex. Either their speed is an optical illusion or they are tempting fate. We are not racing on the road -- we need to ignore what other riders are doing. I'm 72 and I still struggle with this!

If I could add to any of this: go on a dry run. Check out the road. Look for debris. Get familiar. Ride on new roads no faster than you’d drive a car as a general rule of thumb. Once you check out the road and you’ve ridden it slow, then work on going faster. Riding is an art form that takes a long time in my opinion. Train often and accept steady growth. Don’t just go balls to the wall. The same app.Ken’s to the gym, surfing, etc. Always great technical advice!

@robertmann6890 Жыл бұрын

Agreed 👍 I always practice on a familiar road. If I’m going to test the limit of skills. Also won’t do anything that would possibly put other people in danger.

First time i was riding my first bike, just days after I got my licence, I was coming up to a round about in an 80 kmh zone. I took it at around 20 kmh. Very slow but I was not confident and it felt comfortable at that speed. As I came out of the turn and went to go straight and speed up I then realised that there was a turn coming out of the roundabout, not big but took me to the left. I hit it at almost 50kmh, I shit myself. Thank God I didn't panic, just slowed down tapper my brakes and looked at where I wanted to go like I was taught. Made it through, only centre meters from oncoming traffic. After watching this video, all I can think is what if I tried to the start the turn at the speed I thought I should go or something i wasn't comfortable with because i dont want to hold up traffic or something.

@rogermaslonsr.9156 Жыл бұрын

Ideally, shouldn't have to worry about slowing traffic ...which should ADAPT to the vehicle in front AND maintain FOLLOWING INTERVAL.

@BunikuXXL Жыл бұрын

True, even if you are slowing traffic (doubt it), that means you are visible. In my opinion it's better than flying pas everyone without being seen.

@yasinulkebay3760 Жыл бұрын

most importantly, about your comfortable entry speed. It will be directly related to where you look, if your look 'drops' or you stare at a fixed point, you will feel you're going too fast and will apply brakes and it's not good. Look ahead and chase the limit point, that's the basic of cornering. Thanks fast Eddie :)

I Was just out practicing this and it definitely increased how I entered and left curves. Slowing down going in and steady throttle through the apex and once the opening showed I accelerated out and it seemed I was going slower, but I was going much faster. The roads are at 50 mph. Body position was the same as usual. 😃

@senseiii3986 Жыл бұрын

As I learned in racing school... entry speed means nothing. What matters is your EXIT speed. Slow is smooth. And smooth is fast. You get your bike down to a speed that's "too slow" for the corner, that's just means you get to hit the throttle sooner on your way out. These things take practice. Don't wreck trying to keep up with a high vis nerd 😈

@pamthetraveler7224 Жыл бұрын

I learned to ride street bike in the 90s up in Sierra Nevadas…where the sign basically says twisties next 100 miles good luck lol. I was taught not to slide or brake into a turn (that means you have too much speed) but at 2/3 through the turn is when you to pull out of the turn. And shouldn’t use brakes at all, learn to use your engine and gears. Took me awhile but that small piece of advice was instrumental. A friend asked me in my first year of riding up there, “is it beautiful seeing Lake Tahoe or all the mountains and valleys??” My answer, “no clue, my eyes were glued to the pavement lol” it took a few nightmares that I’d look out at the view and that’s where my bike would go. Not a place to learn but I’m a Rise to the occasion learner. Power down, don’t slide into turn and power out 2/3 through. And for heavens sake, do NOT hug the line expecting the oncoming car to stay where they are supposed to. THEY are also googling at the view.

One thing I think about for new riders is distance is time. Even if you do this and get faster and more comfortable. Watch that you don’t get too close to car in front of you. Personally I maintain a 2-3 second gap at all times. It has saved me more than once.

This is the most important video you've made so far! together with the concept of trail braking, this is what bikers of all levels should know! I have always learned that I should always be able to stop when coming to the exit. body position is certainly important, but a good neutral one, especially on public roads.

It's strange at the beginning, but when we realize to ride faster/safer and with more pleasure - its more to do with mindset. It's psychogical problem, not so physical. Like - the whole ride is going in our mind. And our body - and therefore motorcycle - reacts to the mind and then we ride safe..or not ;) Our body is led by the brain and we can train that brain to think is certain way. Thanks for another lesson :)

Great video thanks. Your narration is very useful, especially when you verbally explain "wait, wait, now accelerate" - it helped me change my riding. One issue I have observed is that if I'm riding behind a good rider, who accelerates hard when they're exiting a corner, it's very tempting to get on the throttle too early to keep up with them. But if I resist accelerating too early, I get an "accordion effect" where they peel off from me at the corner exit but I catch up with them at the next corner entry -- which feels stressful.

safe riding is the best riding, for everyone. Ride within your limits! and remember have the priority be the exit and have the patience to remember that and have the patience to ride in a way that your exits are strong with you in an upright riding position and good tire contact on the ground. I practice riding skills on my ebike, I find Mojojitsu's information to be valueble to any rider tbh.
