Lol thought I recognised the voice of Roadcraft Nottingham

Used to practice this on a Sat morning in the local High School grounds. Tutor was a highly regarded instructor and he made us do it time after time, until we got it! It's actually easier to master without the helmet and the guy allowed us to do it like that for the first few sessions. He was the Old Skool biker type and knew everything about geometry, balance, c of g, absolutely everything. He's no longer with us but I've had 40 years on the bikes without a single accident - all credit to him.

What a good, patient and reassuring instructor! Well done!

I did exactly the same, *stares at curb*, drives into curb, panic front brake grab and clutch in, Waaaaaaaaang. And there was a car learner trying to kill us at the time.

The other day I had a very bad instructor at my CBT who dumped me trying to do u turns for 6 mins and failed me. He didn't tell me how to do it and where I was going wrong. It was the old staring at kerb symptom. This video has been invaluable thank you. I'm repeating my CBT tomorrow with a better driving school.

That is a shame. It does nothing for your training to have an instructor who is impatient. If you live in the Midlands, I recommend training with Roadcraft Nottingham.

God he's a polite instructor aint he?

The critical thing in a learning exercise is not how much you know at the beginning but how much you improve by the end. Here a good instructor helped a pupil who listened and wanted to learn.

Some of those cars don't seem to care, they just zip on by. Good instruction and good learning. 👌🏽

There's some fantastic riding there. You have a great instructor, I'm so envious!

That was a good instructor. With someone like that helping you it would be difficult not to improve.

Nice bloke. He has his own channel search for Roadcraft Nottingham.

The instructor sounds very friendly a reassuring. I just passed my CBT and I still struggle with the U turn. The kerb staring gets me each time.

I’m taking the license now in Denmark,and I wish I had that instructor.he is good 👌🏻

Priceless info Roadcraft .. I always thank you for taking the to upload these.

Great instructor.

simple: look at where you want to go. throw your shoulder out, lean against the bike and make the turn with a slight pulling motor.

you can do it easily without a pulling motor.

You're much like me, nodding and not speaking even when you know they don't see your head. I feel like it was probably weird for your instructor as it has been the mine. Haha. :)

Two Fearless Riding tips: 1) See if the bike will run at idle. If your Motorcycle Idle Speed is about 5 mph, you can make the turn with no gas or brakes. 2) Gently try counter steering to get the bike to lean. It works at ALL speeds, but you have to push more gently and longer at idle speed. The bike wil lean quickly, THEN turning the bars INTO the turn will finally feel safe.

Great instructor!! Maybe it's the English accent thats so calming? :D

Counter steering is almost non existent in doing a U-turn.

My instructor got pissed cause i used the back break too much 😂 i aint dying hitting a corner at 30 mph after only 4 hours training on a bike 😅 As for U-Turns these roads are wise af and my type of road 🤔 i did them well on site but off site pretty poor

Late reply, but yeah great! I'm a bit of an old man in a young body though, I got a 700cc bike that is super economical instead of a racing bike. Has the advantage of still looking cool and modern as well as getting 80mpg!

Wow

Only 6Mtr's here in Australia for the U turn on the test.

Pretty sure he could have turned an articulated truck in that road... 😁

Boring hell iso you did the U turn in a distance 2mtrs bigger than the test... well done

Hey. Did you ever over come them

i struggle with u turn am not judging u feel like your going to drop the bike or put your foot down 😭

I can't stand u-turns! I've found what has really helped me is trying to lean the top half of my body away from the inside of the turn. For some reason it makes me feel a bit more comfortable. U-turns on a bike just feel so unnatural!

I have the impression that the instructor does it badly himself. Or does he do it to somehow gradually teach the student?

The car is further away than the camera shows. It's also not a test.

I'm pretty sure counter steering is not involved in a u turn like that. Counter steering occurs at higher speeds.
