Radius = MPH

How can a simple math equation help us make the corner, every time, on any bike.
There are very few things more important on a motorcycle than taking the right line in a corner.  We’ll cover just how critical the relationship is between your speed and how radius is affected by the role brakes, throttle, and lean angle are in this vital equation.

    RiderCoach here for MSF. I will say at the basic beginner rider level it is taught to NOT brake mid turn at all because you are being trained the very fundamental skills of riding a motorcycle. If we add lean angle and trail braking into the mix it overcomplicates and offers a lot more risk for the student to over brake and wreck during the class. The basic rider course is not designed to be the end all be all of your motorcycle education. It is only the fundamental basics to get you riding.

The 100 points of grip was another video that really made me think about being smooth on throttle and brakes. "Load it before you use it"......simple, memorable, and most of all usable.

I don’t know how much the tires can take before they slip. I’ve watched the 100 points of grip. It could also be that I’m just too cautious. I’m a risk manager and always err on the side of safety.

    It's a shame that this isn't being taught as a basic skill everywhere in the world. The only thing I see on the road is people changing lean angle several times through tightening turns or with obstacles in them, making what could have been a nice even turn with a steady lean angle into a nightmare of a show. I don't have yet my license but I'm trying to get these concepts carved into my brain for when I get it. Thanks for sharing these, specially for people that don't have access to any of these advanced riding courses nearby.

    With all do respect, I take issue with the expression (Radius=MPH), because it suggests a 1 to 1 , or linear relationship, which it is not. I think a more accurate expression is (Speed Squared = Radius) For example: At any lean angle, 10% reduction in speed shrinks your turn radius by 19%. Also, Speed Squared = stopping distance, and crash impact force.Thank you so much for all your videos

    Its exactly like a car. Speed equals radius. I don't care what kind of car it is, you can only go so fast through a given turn. You go too fast you will not make it through the turn. You push too hard coming out you won't make it out. I knew this from driving sports cars and following motorsports all my life. But its nice seeing this video confirm what I knew to be true.

    Hallo etienne Schaarman! Think about using your brakes at a lighter pressure for a longer time into the corner. If you over slow the entry, you can use a neutral throttle if you are happy with your speed and direction of the motorcycle. You don't want to overlap throttle and brakes as you are giving the bike 2 different signals.

    cornering on a dirtbike just seems like a different animal. On a street road or track, your body weight goes inside so you don't have to lean the bike as much. On the dirt, your body weight goes on the outside foot peg, so you have to lean the bike more but you're putting weight on those inside knobbies for traction. And also you have a rut or berm to help with traction through the corner. Enjoying the Champ U courses and putting the info into practice on my KTM Duke.

    Yep, get on it on a dirt road or a wash in the desert. Street bike will do the same as a dirt bike. The big difference happened in the 1980's. The Honda CB's, Kawasaki kz's etc. Had lots of trail & not a steep rake. You could kick out the backend like a dirt bike on the asphalt. They were also tank slappers! Get the front end light, they followed road imperfections. Ya get comfortable with it eventually. When all the newer sport bikes with 16 or 17 inch tires with a steeper rake & less trail came out. Had to be careful not to kick out the rear like the older bikes. Or you will high side. As much as I like the better handling of the newer bikes. I miss being able to kick out the rear like you could on he 60's, 70's, early 80's bikes with no fear of high siding. Having started riding dirt bikes. My opinion is that everyone should learn in the dirt before getting on the street. As well as truly understand how your motorcycle was designed to handle. There are simply body movements & memory mussle that gets built riding in the dirt that will help you out on the street. You simply cannot be sliding around doing what you can do in the dirt. Wreck get up & try it again. You will get seriously injured or killed doing that stuff on the street, or arrested. Having done all the sliding around in the dirt. Provides you with memory mussle that will save you in some circumstances on the street. Usually some asswipe in a car or pickup that forces you to slide around to keep from hitting them or going down.

    When you tell some of the things to dutch instructors that champschool teaches like trailbraking on the public road or even letting your leg dangle in slow corners, some of them are just dumbfounded and respond with " Americans are crazy" but then again they don't even teach conscience counter steering, you just lean into the corner these guys teach, well they do teach that if you need to do an evasive maneuver then you push left to go left and push right to go right. Champschool teaching is on a whole different level

    i was on a mountain road here in europe last summer and i went downhill and i thought okay i use my breake into the corner and i was struggling to keep traction and to keep the bike on the road and the bike felt heavy on the front . i was lucky and i did`nt fall... did i went too fast in the corner and because of that used to much breaks or did i break to long in to the corner? greetings from holland

    Neither... the reality is that when riding downhill, you're inevitably going to be feeling like you're putting more weight into the front of the motorcycle through the handle bars as you're angled forwards. However, you'll actually need *more* brakes (as said in the video) for the front *tire* to see the same amount of load from the motorcycle. So either you were doing it properly and just weren't used to the sensation of loading more weight into the handlebars, or you were actually using too little brakes and the front was still under loaded

    Try braking earlier and LIGHTER pressure for smoother slowing (no sudden forward weight transfer) and keep braking longer and that feeling of over braking and struggling to maintain traction will go away

    Question that has been confusing me....so assuming a long, constant radius sweeping corner, and the bike is settled, and the throttle is constant (some maintenance throttle keeping the bike at speed), this would be the only theoretical safe place to add lean angle points, assuming all aspects stated above are constant, correct? Because there are no acceleration points, or braking points being used in this situation?

    To be clear, there is no single maintenance throttle level. Maintenance throttle is whatever level of throttle keeps your bike travelling at a constant speed, no matter the situation you're in. If you're going uphill, the actual throttle level you'll hold for "maintenance throttle" will be higher than going flat or downhill. In fact, maintenance throttle going downhill steep enough might actually be "maintenance brakes"

    But when u add throttle the bike wants to standup not tighten. I'm not sure how adding throttle would tighten the line. You CAN however do that in a car with a limited slip differential, because the diff will change the torque distribution between the inner and outside tire and allow u to steer with the throttle. (Works in all cars with LSD especially in RWD). Dont do that with non LSD cars as they will behave like motorcycles and understeer... R=mph is a good way to think about it and will help you be more consistent in most vehicles. Cars with LSD CAN "BEND" this rule to a point... Once u exceed the traction limit or 100 points of grip its game over in any vehicle...

    Great information. I have a question regarding adding lean angle or taking out lean angle. I was taught that the only two inputs on a motorcycle are speed (throttle and braking) and direction (steering inputs), and lean angle is the RESULT of speed and direction inputs. Why would you want to directly control lean angle, you are trying to go a certain direction at a certain speed. Nobody says I want to take this corner at X degrees of lean angle. Appreciate all your videos.

    Jerry Spencer Jerry, I think your question is "why would you want to directly control lean angle?". Not sure this R=MPH vid directly says that, but here are some thoughts: 1-Lean angle is finite...due to traction or parts dragging. Because it's finite, the rider must set corner speed to accomodate for traction or dragging. In that case, a rider would want to directly control lean angle. 2-In racing, we are up against traction issues and attempt to run right to the edge (100%) of what our tires can offer in every corner on every lap. To stay within grip limits we respect maximum lean angle, again going back to exact entry and mid-corner speed. 3-So what this video is getting to is the fact that lean angle is finite and the way to stay on the safe side of what your traction or dragging parts offer is to precisely set cornering speed with the ability to continue to shed speed efficiently all the way through the corner if necessary, through trail braking. I hope that helps. Many riders, after running wide in a corner and living through the experience, decide to ride slowly everywhere. That's an option. We teach that running wide in a corner is not a speed issue, it's a lack of control issue: they literally enter the corner out of control, out of the brakes...or using the wrong control, the throttle. It works when you're going slow or the corner isn't significantly tighter than you thought because you can "lean it over farther". But when the pace is up or the grip is down or the corner is tighter than you thought, trail-braking is the cure. Thanks, Nick Ienatsch

    I think the CSBS is sometimes misunderstood. I think the "throttle cracked open" thing is meant to emphasize that people shouldn't twitch the throttle on and off and upset the bike with fore and aft weight transfer, at least not in an ideal situation. They do also mention in Twist of the Wrist II that for things like double apex corners and other complex situations there are times where you may roll off the throttle, stand the bike up, and/or brake before taking the next corner. I think the explanation in this video is more complete and comprehensive whereas the CSBS is more of a soundbite to keep people from bucking their bike around corners.

    CSS teaches maintenance throttle so you are not accelerating but the throttle is not closed. You are maintaining speed. When you get to your point in the corner where you can see the exit, maintenance throttle allows you to smoothly add throttle without the jerky transition from off throttle to on throttle.
