    Very important part! We can absorb a lot of feedback with our legs 🦵 almost like another suspension. Helps us move around easier on the bike as well from side to side.

    I was told to apply a great deal of my body weight to the right peg while in a left lean corner, with nearly all of your body's weight going towards applying pressure to the chassis. Same thing for a right leaning corner. Left foot pressure to the peg almost to the point of lifting your whole body off the seat.

    Thank you for taking the time to share! I also put a lot of weight on the outside peg or the turn I’m doing from apex out. Help stand the bike up on acceleration and get on the meat of the rear tire. Our legs take a beating lol

    I want to give you a huge thank you for this video, it illustrated what I have been doing wrong with my feet. I have been on my toes, but not on the edge of the foot peg! Keeping my feet up close to the frame was causing major limitations in how much I could get my leg out! It was a true AhHA moment! Thanks again!

    For people who have a bit of experience, but have hit a wall, this is my offering. The first one is an extension of your look…feet instruction. 1: LOOK where you’re going. FEEL what you’re doing. 2: If you’re not on the brakes, you’re on the throttle. 3: Everybody else is doing it. Why can’t we? 3: Smooth, smooth, smooth. So; 1: Feel (not feelings), is an essential part of knowing your limit (if you’re not yet fast) and your bike’s limit (if you are fast). Also great for when someone approaches and asks you to race their (slightly different) bike. 2: this doesn’t mean full throttle, or full braking all the time. It means there is no time gap between the use of each tool. If you roll off, coast, then brake. You are slow. If you don’t move straight back to throttle when braking is complete, you are slow. And also leave yourself open to a front end lose. 3: You’ve got your track/race bike, but you don’t have speed. Question why. Ask fast people on the same bike/tyre/suspension combo (or near to yours) who know their reasons. Most fast racers (to a point) will always give good advice. But once you improve to a point, they (fairly) will now say, “it’s up to you”. This is when you must find good people to make a support crew for yourself. 3: Smooth, smooth, smooth. Is a calming measure to say to yourself. Or imagine someone who loves you saying it softly. Also. CONCENTRATE. If you’ve read this far, you’ll notice 3: twice! And if not, you just crashed into the back of the rider in front of you!

    Thank you for the idea! If it’s race craft specific tips I would look at the corner from reverse. Exit, apex, entry and start tweaking and modifying based on exit. You want to get on the gas as soon as possible that = faster lap times. Look at your “braking” as setting your speed for the corner. I like to trail into a corner with my middle finger do what feels natural and transition to the throttle as smooth and quick as possible. Reference points will help understand where and when to make inputs.

    I really appreciate that. You make it all worth it! I would pull in the clutch for every gear. I don't lose control, I have engine braking, less mistakes can occur when you do induvial shifts. I know plenty of riders that pull in the clutch and bang down 2-3 gears. Not sure if this is good for the motorcycle either as far as wear and tear.

    Thank you 🙏 Karac Kennedy I appreciate your comment :) Reference points will be a good starting point for your vision. Practice always having a reference point to look at when you are making inputs. ( where am I looking when I am applying the brakes, turning in, accelerating out for example. Use these points to get comfortable with where you are on track and know what’s coming. Try to keep your vision up as hig as possible. The more we look down the faster things happen in our brain and less time to react. If you are looking down the road you have more time to react/correct the motorcycle. Pick your favorite turn and get comfy with it. Find brake markers, turn in points, apex, and a spot on the track where you start applying throttle on exit. Hope this helps a little!

    Good instructional vlog with some humor interjected. Awesome!! I liked how you made it a point about body position and doing what is comfortable to you. 2 years ago I was involved in a car accident where I was rear ended. L4-L5 got screwed up and I was off the bike/track for over a year. I have really had to adopt to what my body was capable of post accident plus the fact I'm 59 years old. I now ride a 18' Triumph Street Triple RS. More upright and relaxed foot peg height but still big fun, at least for me, to rail around on in the twisty's and do a few track days. Subscribed. Ride safe!

    Hi Tomatoobatt Upon corner exit you want to get the bike straight up and down on the meat of the tires as quick as possible. Using your outside leg to apply pressure/pressing down to the foot peg helps stand the bike up when exiting the corner. Dropping your head lower also helps on corner exit to help pick the bike up. Let me know if that is a little more clear.

    Thank you 🙏 for watching and the new idea for content. In the meantime finding your downshifting reference point is a good start. Notice where you start banging your downshifts at what point in the track. From there you may have to adjust your throttle hand so you can manipulate the throttle and brake at the same time. When you are braking it’s a smooth application and blip of the throttle when changing gears (give it a quick turn of the throttle to match the rpm’s so the rear tire doesn’t get too out of sorts) so the application is braking, and when you downshift you give it a little throttle (while keeping same pressure on brake) I’ll explain with visuals in the video I create.

The mentality that you already are better at right over left. Practice being mindful with what your body is doing during the right handers (especially throttle side) and trying to apply the balance more on the left. Change the mindset and approach to the left handers and mimic what you are doing on the opposite side. The mind is bizarre! Thank you for posting 🙏

    Hi Jason! Reference points will be your best friend when moving at higher speeds. Getting reference points for all the inputs you make is what builds the muscle memory and confidence. That is why you can push thru blind turns, knowing where your markers are and where to hit them. Starting off slow and building the pace. Then comes trusting yourself to shift your vision from reference point to reference point faster. The quicker you can stay "ahead" of your riding the more time you have to think and react. You gave me a great idea to make an episode on just vision! Thank you for watching and let me know what other questions you may have!

Some adjustments I made past year is scooting more forward in the seat with a little gap between the man parts and tank. I use to ride in the back because I thought I was putting traction on the rear tire. I felt my front end sluggish, or like I was behind the inputs. Now riding upfront, the bike street razor sharp; there is no waiting to turn. BP I was running out of lean until I started to hang off a little more. Now at the moment I am dragging the very top of the boot and I’m keeping the knee closer to the tank for ground clearance. Next video will be posted tonight /tom about Air Fence safety systems!

Feel it out, help stand the bike up on the meat of the tires by dropping your head and picking the bike up. Have a reference point for your acceleration so you know where to build off of. Use all of the track.
