This video is a masterclass. Not only in the proper application of the brakes and throttle into, out of, and during turns But in instruction, teaching, and thinking using mental models. Well done 👏👏
Nope, it's wrong, radius equals speed squared 😅 Maintaining same apetite for the traction pizza means twice the speed requires four times the radius. And the opposite looks nicer - twice speed drop can guarantee a four times tighter corner for you.
Thank you. Excellent video! 💙🔥
Always tried to follow Nick’s advices in loosing points with lean angle, but experts will have different advices on body position and lean angle when you are not as much at the limit. I.e counter balancing, that can become confusing. The idea is always load it first.
Finally I know how Nick pronounces his last name! Been wondering since he was writing for Motorcyclist mag... late 80s? 😅
And some people say “don’t touch the front brakes in the turn”
❤
Motojitsu brought me here Great tips...on grip
My wife HATES the passenger seating position on my 2018 R6. Any ideas on how to adjust it?
get a new one
@@goldencatpat totally set myself up for that one. Lol
Is twist of the wrist outdated advice? Because this advice contradicts what that film says.
Fantastic, so simple to understand.
100 points of grip doesnt work. What if there is 2 setups the exact same except 1 has more powerful brakes. Then at 70° lean with the exact same 30% braking power, the more powerful brake has more bite and you might go down. Same thing with 2 different cc's of bikes. The superbike @ 30% throttle is going to be alot more than a lesser cc @ 30% throttle and if youre adding 70° of lean then you might go down on the superbike when you could maybe get away with it on the lesser cc bike.
Gentlemen, Reddit sent me here and I'm Blessed that they did. I have a 21'MT-07 with only 33 miles on it. I'm a brand new rider at 59. I know you probably get asked this question a lot, could you please recommend a tire(s) that will perform in weather and/or road conditions? again thank you for this video. ...Ride Safe Everyone..
Coach Cody! what does ChampSchool teaches that differs in California Superbike Riding School? their students claims that there has never been a MOTOGP/WSBK champ over the years from the era of Freddie Spencer..they claim that the European way is better..can you please enlighten me with these..😅
Perfect explanation.
Am I the only one wondering why the rear tire is on backwards...? (No hate, love Nick Ienatsch.)
These guys advise against using aggressive throttle while using the front brake, which makes total sense to me. Motojitsu, who often references champ school, recommends using maintenance throttle of about 1 to 2 percent to hold speed as needed while trail braking, which also makes sense to me. I'm confused.
Wtf its a bicycle.. we talking about motorcycle s 😅
Anyone notice after years of proper cream cone grip, his right pinky naturally resets to a raised position as if he’s always twisting the throttle. Have no doubt… the pinky is the light of truth
Let me just say I never went to this school. I rode hogs exclusively for over two decades, and through a weird set of circumstances, wound up at a school with a new sport bike. I learned more “Hard craft” in that one day than the entire 20+!!! Even worse, a couple months later I wound up getting my racing license.😂 I view it like fighting. No matter how good you are or think you are, you’ll be exponentially better when you’re trained.
I've watched plenty of Motojitsu videos, who often references ChampSchool in his lessons.. Jitsu talks about "maintenance throttle" while trail braking. My interpetation of this has been that maintenance throttle balances out the natural engine braking on the back tire while in a turn, therefore putting all the control gained from "trail barking" to the front tire. So now this guy from Champschool demonstrates that is a bad idea to used maintenance throttle by locking the front brake and going full throttle at the same time. If I understand correctly, he is trying to make the point that if it doesn't work under this extreme experiment, you should not be using it ever. I am completely confused at this point.
This has transformed the way I think about braking and cornering and I'd like to think I've been a better rider since discovering this demo!
great video. nice job coop
Watching the tail light. Great trail braking!
That was awesome to watch 🙂🏍️👍🏻
Pro level 😬💯
the EZ wheelie !!!
Dave Moss Tuning does a great job with this stuff.
Half of the shit u say is just stupid
Please get off youtube with ur stupid videos they make no sense to anyone geeeezzzzz
The track looks like it's in terrible shape!
What a marvelous presentation! Plus that ending is hilarious!
Don't understand this. Think most people don't understand what you are saying.
Smooth application of braking. Don’t jerk the brake, squeeze, because that loads the tyre, making it squash and get much bigger, increasing the grip on the road. A non-linear application will exert tremendous force and the tyre won’t react well, meaning you get very little actual braking, because the tyre, forks and brake all have to work together. If you squeeze, adding pressure progressively, the tyre and fork gets that little bit of time needed to load, meaning you can lean. Be smooth.
I'm glad this video popped up. On my last track day, I was doing this exact thing. The R7 has a rapid rebound even at its' slowest setting. I would do this in order to correct the rebound issue. I will be getting the suspension adjusted ASAP. Thank you!
Just tag davemoss next time
When will you back in 2024? I would love to book the course right now If i could. Looks like a bunch of fun.
Thank you for this video! What I still don't understand is: why can I not increase lean-angle, while increasing brake (applied smoothly)?
"Brottle" lmao. I mean, do riders not immediately feel how much the bike hates that?
I think you can see way too much rebound, you can be pretty sure if your out of front travel as well....
Thank You.
Shots fired! 🤣
Dave Moss voodoo 😂
I love the wet, it is so much fun.
Champ U has been invaluable to my riding! I started my Harley adventure with an XL Roadster during the pandemic. Boy I had some pretty scares riding the canyons, trying not to run wide. That’s when I found you guys and started improving dramatically by applying what I learned. With a little bit of miles under my belt on that lighter Harley, I upgraded last October to a Breakout 117! Even the guys at the dealership told me to be very careful with the curves on this new bike, since it was not meant for canyons. Well, it turns out what I learned with you guys applies amazingly well on this motorcycle too! Lots of fun rides in canyons and tight turns where I live (Oregon) Just finished the second course “Traffic Survival” Lots of great information and defensive technics. Thank you guys!!
Ain’t it the truth? I started out on cruisers in the early 80’s, and oddly wound up at a school with a sport bike in 05. I thought I knew what I was doing, but in that one day I learned more than the 20+ years prior. Next thing I knew, I was getting my racing license!😂 Retired from racing now, but my Ultra Classic is outfitted with racing suspension and heads turn when they see this old guy hanging off a 900lb. Bagger!!!😎🤘🏻
👏Ottimi consigli!
Does anybody know how much it is for the classes ? For new beginners
As a motor, I can tell you motor officer schools and your quarterly training does very little if anything to improve your at speed skills. The training is overly focused on slow speed control, yet when on enforcement we are regularly riding very aggressively at high speeds. I remember getting yelled at by the super an ego CMTO at California Highway Patrol Motor School for hanging of the seat, smh. I didn’t ride during my off time during my 10 years on motors. Afterwards I got back on my own motorcycles and had to seek out “high speed” instruction and information. My dad was a certified superbike attic in the 70’s/ 80’s and demanded an off the seat style when training me to ride at 15 years of age, yet those skills were very rusty, and the finer nuances were left out. It’s a long way of saying that motor officer doesn’t equal high speed greatness and online sources like Champ U, Michael Neeves, and others are an excellent source of skill building. Even studying the greats, Rossi, Lawson, etc. and applying that knowledge appropriately to your skill setting, motorcycle and environment goes a long ways.

So true!
