How to Perform Low and High Speed Turns on a Motorcycle! 

"the speed is whats gon keep you from falling over" was so hard for me to learn at first lol. you remind me of a friend I had many years ago when I first started riding. nice video man

I only see a small mistake, but most people make it & we’re fine. There’s only one method to turning a bike. You countersteer at all speeds, but speed exaggerates the sensation of countersteering so your brain only notices it at higher speed. I love how you said “speed is what keeps the bike up” & that’s 100% correct. Gyroscopic precession is what turns the wheel in the direction of travel after you finish leaning the bike over. The reason this isn’t as noticeable at lower speed cause the bike doesn’t need to lean as far to turn. The faster you go, the more the bike must lean to turn. But, after that lean, no matter the angle, the front tire will turn into the turn without rider aid. The way I understand this is the faster I go, the more force I need to apply to my bars to lean the bike over. The bike must lean to turn & we confuse the low degree lean angle of slow speed maneuvers with “direct steering”. It may feel like the bike is upright when going slow, but the truth is it’s only more upright than if you were going faster. It’s still leaned over, just not far enough for your brain to notice lean angle.

I'm so glad to have found this channel. Please keep up the R3 content.

Nice video just got my first bike in July

I feel like there’s a certain point between conventional and counter steering where you don’t turn the handle bar at all and the bike just somehow turns lol

Bro, please turn on Anisotropicfiltering x16.

Gyroscopic effect. Good you mentioned that.

You’re in Gwinnett county. I know that mall over there on Steve Reynolds. Nice big lot to practice at.

I know that parking lot! Let’s go ride some time lol

(2024 Ninja 500) new rider here. Iv been slowing down by holding clutch, pressure on front brake and downshifting as the mph goes down. Holding the clutch the entire time and only finally releasing the clutch when I’m in first or 2nd (depending on how fast I can make the turn). It feels smooth and I’m just coasting. Is this ok???

are you pushing down or forward with the handlebars for high speed?

what type of phone mount do you have?

Some say above 8mph some above 15 others above 20 everyone has his own theory about when countersteering starts....smh

I don't think you pull 'up' or push 'down'. You push 'forward' or pull 'backwards'. You can't turn a bike by pushing down on the handlebars.

I can tell your passion of being on two wheels but you are not a good teacher or your skills are lacking. The push is to push the bar away from you to turn the bars not push the bars in a roll. The reason is counter steering. Also dragging a rear brake and using the friction zone of the clutch is how you do slow speed turns. I recommend either going to some riding classes or becoming an instructor before putting out poor quality how to videos on youtube. This could actually be dangerous to new riders.
