SO INCREDIBLY AWESOME MAN!!!!! Following you with passion!! wish you ever end up by the Dominican Republic! Trying to go over the 10 week progression program.. TRAIN TRAIN TRAIN... gotta keep TRAINING! Big High Five from DR. Keep up the AMAZING WORK!!!!
It´s great to see how to start. Nobody seems to start with littel obstacles, littel challange, low speed...for me as a rookie its great to see how you teach, as allways. thanks this makes me feel good to try it...
I’m nowhere as skilled as you but many of your techniques I find myself doing and this is my this is the first video I’ve seen from you. I have no clue what I’m saying it 1am so take my rambling with a grain of salt.
While all of your lessons have really taught me a lot. The two biggest have to be body position and lead with your shoulders. They kinda go hand in hand. That said... I am always looking to be better and I know I have a long long way to go.
Hey Rich, thank you for all the awesome vids! I’m wondering if you can include your thoughts on weight distribution. For example, in the attack position, how much of the riders weight should be on the pegs vs. the bars (90/10)? Maybe I’m the only one but, when I’m told to bend at the hips, a good portion of my weight shifts forward. I don’t think that’s what I should be doing. There are many riding scenarios where discussing this in more detail would be very helpful. Thanks again!
Ironically you might be more likely to stall because the changing load requirement is directly transferred to the rotating assembly of the engine, possibly causing bog down or stall- whereas feathering the clutch and maintaining engine rpm isolates, or buffers the rotating assembly reducing the likelihood of stall. Edit: additionally the speed of actuation with the clutch can be nearly instant, whereas revving the engine takes some measurable time to build available power. 👍✌️🤙
Man, but in practice, I have trouble trusting the bike that the power will be there to catch me from just vowing over bars. It’s a process. I understand. lol just feels so much like I’m going to go over the bars OR I use a TON of arm energy or end up pulling something to try to push myself back again.
This position prevents you from going over the bars. Going over the bars is usually caused by the rear tire getting kicked into the air. If your body position is forward, you can counter act. If you’re back, you can’t move any further back to counteract a kick over the bars. If you do it properly, you don’t use any muscle. The bite naturally flows back-and-forth, and you are always ahead of the movements, minimizing your energy.
@@IRCTireUSAMoto appreciate the response. I saw your other vid on the one-handed start-stop and I’ve been working towards my balance trying to get down to one hand and using no or little arm effort to “hold” myself on the bike. I relate this exercise to that. By starting back, then moving your body forwards, are you anticipating the throttle hit when you do this so that if it doesn’t come, you’re almost now too far forward? Or are you leaning forward and using your arms to hold yourself on the bike be the bike sort of driving itself into the bottom of your feet. Hope I’m making sense.
@@IRCTireUSAMoto he’s one of the best teachers and trainers I’ve seen. I’ve been watching him for quite some time now and have been trying to apply his techniques in all disciplines or riding and have noticed vast improvement everywhere.
