@darkshadowsx5949 5 лет назад

a lot of Americans use millimeters just not enough... I started using it with 3d printers then, as a CNC machinist, etc. i cant argue that its not a better system because it is. my only hope is more people catch on. i was using square mm to find a better deal on nickel metal for electroplating recently. I dont have much physical reference to 0.00393701 inches unless i convert it to mm. even i prefer mL over cups/oz and grams/kilos over pounds now. its contagious.

@73Zapp 5 лет назад

On the GS u need less than two parking slots and you hardly manage three slots on the S1000RR. That's a huge difference and it shows that the bike _does_ matter. Of course you _can_ use that technique on a superbike but it doesn't make it a slow-corner-killer as the GS as long as you keep the stock handle-bars. A superbike just isn't built for that. 50% more radius says it all, also the GS is obviously much easier to handle at slow speed. But I tried the technique already on my bycicle and have to admit that i use(d) it anyway so it's already in my repertoire of movements for slow/mid-speed turns on bycicle - just didn't transfer it to my motorbike riding or at least i didnt' think of it so far. Maybe I use this already on the bike /wo thinking to much about it - I'll give it a try on the next trip.

I just spent the last hour doing this on my ZX-10R. Last year, I could barely do it at all. Now, I'm working on shrinking the diameter of the circle and getting the speed up. It just takes practice to get a feel for what the bike wants to do at low speed. Really good video. Thanks for the lesson!

I accidentally discovered counterbalancing a few days back. Now I can do my 8s on my big bike with no turning radius. Watching your videos should help fine-tune my techniques. Wasn't sure how far out I should go. Now I can go more far out than I do

@weetabixharry 4 года назад

2:49 is the key for me. I have to overgrip to make space for my wrists. Especially need to think ahead before right turns, when I'm trying to keep good throttle control, then suddenly realize there's nowhere for my entire right wrist to go. Really great video - so thorough to cover the small details like this.

This video helps a lot for bikes with clipons, pretty much all slow speed videos are on bikes with more upright seating position and taller handle bars. I actually saw this video when it was posted but after I got back from riding and practicing u-turns and did ok. After seeing you do it on a sport bike it seemed to make more sense and I went back out on Sunday and did much better. Thanks a lot!

Cheers Eddy, you're always awesome with the advice. Your mannerisms, analogies and tips are spot on all the time. I've been practicing these slow speed manoeuvres and I feel so much more confident, things as simple as coming to a stop very smoothly, you take these things for granted quite easy if you don't practice. I was practicing u turns and figure of 8s and I felt so rusty but then it all come flooding back from when I was learning to ride. The one thing I didn't do though is counterbalancing as you were showing here because it felt unnatural on a sport bike, I learned on an old naked sport tourer style bike called a Suzuki Bandit and that felt very different because of the renthal style handle bars too. Thanks again buddy, ride safe 👍

@Inspirikus 5 лет назад

this type of manuvering that you explain in your videos are obligatory practice and exam in Netherlands. They teach us slow speed slalom, 8, U turn, parking bike in and getting out of parking. On faster exercises they teach us precise breaking, fast breaking with precise stop, and extreme situation breaking like emergency type of breaking. Also fast slalom and fast evasion action in left and in right. Also they teach you fast entering with breaking and evasion...This are all done on naked bikes but in practice you could apply all on sport bike as well. BTW your videos are very informative and explained very nice. Keep up good work.

Been a sub for a while now. Gotta say man, as most have already said. You really do a good job with the explanations. I've been riding for quite a few years now and the explanations your give are basically easy enough for third graders but they translate into high skill level activities. Good stuff , actually made me want to go practice some more technical skills to really see where I am as a rider.

Great video. I cld do v tight u turns no problem on my 150cc 125kg sportbike. But have never been consistent with my 200kg s1000rr. But 2 elements i noticed - the heavier bike does need a little more speed compared to the small bike otherwise it tends to want to drop. The other thing which i only managed once....you got to let the bike 'drop'. Once it starts to drop, throttle up.

@MotoJitsu 5 лет назад

Each bike is a bit different, but the main technique is the same..like I said, I haven't rode a sports bike at all in 7 months or so and made this video after 5 mins of practicing right beforehand, so it's possible :)

I used this position when i was passing a driving license on a maneuvering square in Poland. This must be done when you're making the circle or "number 8". On my channel is video, when i was training maneuvers on Yamaha XJ6 ;). Peace!

Hi there Moto Jitsu, that is incredible, your control is apsolute perfection ,thank you so much for your teachings friend,I've built a bit of confidence from telling myself what you say,I took my Honda out of my garage for the first time today & I was just getting used to the weight & releasing my clutch to ride back into my garage 5 or 6 times at 6 meters away & it felt like a bit of success ,your control is apsolutely awesome, thank you for your time & videos Fast Eddie 🙂🙂😉

Euro biker here, great vid sir. Just passing by to say that these techniques are teached in every moto-driving schools and is considered as a basic that must be mastered in order to obtain your licence (in France). That's what i did and gosh ... just to get an restricted A2 licence for 2 years. In two years i'll be sitting on a GSXR ahah Cheers.

@alex-jandoruelas8322 5 лет назад

Why is it that turning right is harder for me. I tend to get stiff and forget to play the piano. Great video I have learned from other channels but now I found my home. #bestchannelever

@MotoJitsu 5 лет назад

Most do...we have the throttle to worry about and steering...so it's a lot for one hand..that's why when I go right, I pull the left handlebar...same thing as pushing right to go right (counter steering)

@fatmanpedaling 5 лет назад

Well, on a slower tight right turn your right hand is trying to maintain a steady rpm while moving towards you, your wrist is articulating out to the right, right hand turns tend to be much tighter on roads where we drive on the right, the handle bar is coming in towards the knee that's leaning down. Your brains trying to do like 3 calculus problems and some physics and you're just hoping you don't look as stupid as you feel.

@stuffedhotdog 5 лет назад

Thanks for your videos! They are very helpful. I have a Kawasaki ZZR600. After watching your other video on u turns, I decided to practice in an empty parking lot yesterday. It took me a while to find out I had to literally put my body on the other side to make the tight turns! At least it felt like it. Gotta get comfortable with that feeling. It takes getting used to, but i got better at it. Keep up the great videos!

@MotoJitsu 5 лет назад

Thank you so much Joseph! Good on you for practicing! Progress, not perfection!

@bynell6572 5 лет назад

Way to go, you can also push on the opposite side footpeg and lift yourself a little from the seat. This way you can switch to other direction faster, when you are not sitting down, just switch to other footpeg :)

@millionwolves 5 лет назад

Your experience is worth thousands if not millions of dollars. I was wondering about all squids, noobs and riders who crash without any of this knowledge that comes out from your videos. Counter balancing is an awesome method for low speeds, thanks for proving it with a 1000!

@motozest7856 5 лет назад

@@MotoJitsu (in response to your comment on my video) I tried 1st gear but I felt it was too jerky. What do you think the advantage of 1st gear over 2nd gear is? Also, are you always putting all your weight on the outside foot, like really pressing down, or is your body position enough to shift your weight to the outside of the turn?

@MotoJitsu 5 лет назад

Jerky isn't the bike, it's you. The advantage is actually going slow, when you're doing slow speed drills, make it less than 5mph or less to actually learn how to balance and use the clutch. You're throttle should be steady and your slipping the clutch to do your u-turns. The weight naturally goes to the outside if you shift your weight there. It's more important for you to learn to use your clutch and bigger head turns. :)

@VK-pk8uz 5 лет назад

Can't be fast if you can't be slow first.

@tkitchens91 3 года назад

See, what most people don't realize is that it's not the straights that make you fast. If you're not able to turn or performlow speed maneuvers that come up in the course of riding, then you're not truly a fast rider. A guy on a 600 will eat you alive even on a liter bike if he's got the skillset. At that point, your bike is just fast and your just not scared to rip it in a straight line... might as well hit the drag strip if all you're gonna do is go fast in a straight line.

@dickjohnson5025 5 лет назад

Glad you mentioned the use of the rear brake. Feathering/ trail braking that rear brake with the use of the friction zone is key for stability. Also? I wish you mention a critical warning, never use the front brake in a low speed maneuver or you’ll set yourself up for a drop. Seen way too many newbies do that.

@MotoJitsu 5 лет назад

Can't mention everything...common sense should be applied...lol and I don't recommend using the rear brake unless you're already good with the clutch and throttle.
