My full counter steering video - ruclips.net/video/zyhEHmjkQ_Y/видео.html
I’m new to bikes. I’ve always wanted one but I never had a job. Now I’m very interested and I’m graduating high school this year in a few weeks. So I’m getting a job soon. then I found your tutorials. They are awesome and very well explained thank you so much😁👌 Nobody in my family cares much about them so they wouldn’t know how to teach me
Thank You Sir, that was the best explanation of cornering ive seen so far on RUclips. I like that you explained the outside, inside, outside rule. I feel more confident in taking corners. 100%
Genuinely the best explanation for counter steering for my brain to comprehend. Everyone always told me to "turn left to go right" but that just didn't makr sense. The "pushing" explanation works so well. And thank you for demonstrating so well❤ Ride safe brother
Glad it helped!
Crazy how I rode a dirt bike back when I was 15-17 never realizing I was counter steering
A safety tip that I learned after years riding motorbike and I saw many accidents at the corner because of these mistakes:
Just "slow down" before entering any corner where u don't see the escape way (the end of the corner). Because it may be a hard turn corner that can make u ride to the opposite lane. Even with the correct technique but trust me u never know when it comes. I saw many people ride high speed at the corner like racer in the track but they end up slipping at the corner and fell out the hill, or getting hit by the opposite vehicle. We are not pro racer and our bike is also not built for racing so don't do like racer on the track. But if someone do upgrade their bike like racing bike and they have skills, it's also dangerous for themselves and other people when entering corner at high speed.
"Slow down'" before entering a corner and "keep a constant speed" while u are in the corner. "Slow down" the speed which help u easier to manipulate the bike toward the direction that u want before u enter the corner. "Keep a constant speed" or "Gradually slow down" while in a corner to prevent the back wheel slips from the road which make u fall. If u in a corner at high speed and suddenly accelerate, it is a potential that the back wheel will swing, slip and u can fall at any time => high chance u die such at get hit by the opposite vehicle or behind vehicle. In contrast, if u suddenly decelerate rather than "gradually" decelerate, your bike will shake (if u ride a bike u will know this) and suddenly slow down a lot => u may lose control for the handle, the wheel lacks of force, friction apply to the road => high chance to fall as well.
Therefore, I always keep a decent and constant speed when I enter any corner. I only gradually decelerate the speed in the corner if I see obstacles ahead or a coming vehicle that I think they may pass too close to me. This helps easier me to ride to the outside of the lane safely and less chance to collide with the opposite vehicle.
Hope this can help to keep u guys safe on the bike.
Peace
I've watched a few about 10 video on riding a motorcycle you're the first to fully explain about taking a curve..love this video. Will be taking my course May 14.
Great video as always. It’s always good to refresh your brain and watch basic tutorial videos on how to ride.
I recently bought my first bike, and u explained countersteering better than any other person on RUclips. I never understood the whole turn left to go right bs alot of ppl say. U gave me a clear and simple explanation from the rider's seat. Thank you so much
I tried explaining this last year and people acted like i was crazy. Im glad you know how to corner.
Thanks dude!
Love waking up Saturday and guaranteed a video. doesn't matter what you talk about just enjoy the 750 sound and your knowledge on bikes. Excited for your wedding pics just had my wedding a few weeks got a couple shots with the bike in my suit. Ride safe man.
I remember when I passed my test and got a sports bike and finding out about this counter steering I couldn't grasp the concept of it whilst watching the videos of it, I understood what was being said but in my mind I was trying to work out how the hell it worked lol took the bike out on a couple bends and it felt very counter intuitive but it actually worked and after having a few little squeaky bum moments I remembered to counter steer and it's saved my ass a few times, now it's just second nature, I think things like this should be taught as basics when learning to ride a motorcycle. Great Video, as always 😎👍🏻
If more riders took the time to do do research and learn to actually ride there would be way less crashes. It’s sad how many riders don’t know these things. Thanks for the video always good to go back to the basics and make sure you are implementing and practicing proper technique. I’m working on pointing my chin through the corner not just using my eyeballs. Haha sorry for the long comment thanks again.
michael scoulfeild even if you’ve been riding for years there’s always something we can learn to help us become a better rider 👍🏻 thanks for watching, I don’t mind the long comments btw 👊🏻😁
SALTxTHExWOUND yeah defiantly. There is so much involved when it comes to riding a motorcycle, the few months I’ve been riding I’ve progressed a lot from watching videos and riding with friends. I wish more riders would do research it’s sad seeing friends crash because they get comfortable to quick and don’t know what they are doing they only think they do. And that’s good to know haha. I’m pretty emotional to this topic because of the friends I’ve lost in the passed from it. And if you wouldn’t mind watching the video I put up on my channel to see me riding, just for tips on ways to improve. That would be great . If not it’s cool but I put it up for that purpose.
@@Gau-Chuu Hey I was just going through the comments and I’m wondering if you’re still riding 4 years later. I’m a new rider and this is all so foreign to me and the wind hitting me sucks. Just looking for some tips. Maybe what has helped you improve the most.
Great video brother, it’s a really good idea to make these tutorials. Lots of young riders can really benefit from these, not enough quality training videos and you explain yourself really well. Include anything you can think of, throttle control in turns, turning from a stop etc. you and Heather stay safe and we greatly appreciate all you work and videos 👍🏻
I started out on a ZX10R and man I took it slow. I’m glad that I took my time to get to know my bike
Now how do you ride it, did you know how to ride before zx10r
Your trying to make the corner as straight as possible is best way to describe it
Everything you said is very true! Actually that corner trajectory you explained gives you the straightest curved path possible. That's why it is the correct trajectory to follow, also the fastest if you are racing, and it is true for bikes and cars too.
My 1st bike is the 2016 Gsxr 750 Moto GP!! Why? It's all because of you SALT 😂😂. I did put it on the Mode B while starting though but I would have no other bike. Great Video and the best channel ever. Ride safe 🏍
Thank you for taking the time helping others new to riding motorcycles
The best description I have heard of Counter-Steering: "steer the bike out from underneath you... it will lean, and you will effortlessly navigate the corner".
Think of counter steering as like a bicycle standing still. If you push forward on the left grip which was the bike fall over, left. If you push the right grip forward it will fall to the right.
Learn your balance first and y'all got this! Great video bro!
Thank you!
Counter steering and leaning the bike while going through the apex is key. But also looking through the corner is important. Head up and chin up with your eyes on the final destination. Peripheral will take care of near by objects. Also good entrance and exist speed.
I’m a noob so before I hit the streets I wanna make sure I know how to turn efficiently…I don’t wanna fall or go too wide…I’ve seen a lot of people go too wide.Thanks for this video !
Good luck!
I agree with the outside inside outside
But the most important aspect of that is a delayed entry closer to the Apex than one would think
Correct me if I’m wrong. Counter steering is not because you push to the left and you go left it’s actually you leaning to the left. That’s what it seems like to me.
You are wrong.
TypeR 600RR
Yea, you are wrong. The rider leans with the bike, the bike isn’t leaning because of your body weight being shifted about.
@@VState60 . You sound like a dick.
Great coaching. When I drive a car I do the same on corners. I drive an audi and it handles corner excellent. It's build for corners.
Thanks for the insight….don’t own a bike before but wanting to get one this year
Dig the early sat morning vids watch them wit my coffee while my daughter still asleep (my quite time 🤣) I dont need the riding tutorials but still like watching your vids. Keep them coming. We have awesome weather in Bama this weekend and it's a 3 day weekend. No work monday!!!... stay safe during the storms headed yalls way!!!...
Started on my 07 750. Amazing bike.
Great bikes indeed! Love my 2015
"i think I just swallowed a bug"
me: that's protein right there
excellent tutorial on how to take a turn 👍having the visual helps understand the apex concept.
Glad you liked it!
You’ve explained this a lot better than when I went to get my license 👏🏽
Thank you so much! Ride safe! :)
Make sure they know to push forward on the bar, not down. Counter steering can also be practiced on a mountain bike or any bicycle, works exactly the same.
Johnny Utah exactly! Btw nice name, one of my favorite movies 👍🏻
This was what I was searching the comments section for. Thanks!!
Bro very nice video. Helped a lot. It’s good for new riders and a refresher for older riders
Every rider should read "Twist of the wrist" book by Keith Code or DVD. I was beginner on Kawasaki zx6r didn't know what I doing. After reading and watching Twist of the wrist and practice practice ...
Now, I'm GP rider (kidding 😂). Really book and dvd are awesome.
I'm sure this will help alot of riders. Good video bro
I have been pushing it on the road and I feel like the only way to really push and test my skill now is a track day.
I thought everyone literally meant pushing the handle bars naturally go, not pushing down, that makes SO much more sense.
I love your bike bro and your roads look beautiful I live in Mexico and the roads are in bad condition and with alot of gravel
Thanks for all the videos how to ride more efficiently and better with a super sport.
Glad you like them! Thanks for stopping by! :)
I got that same bike. It’s my first bike I’ve ever had and I love it. I went 2 down on the front sprocket, M4, set delete esc. I’ve ran a good bit of bikes and cars and nothing has been in front of me up until 150mph. I’ve been passed by almost every liter bike I’ve raced after I top out. But from 0 to 150 I’ll drag the paint off some shit. This bike isn’t no joke with some minor mods. It’s a red light to red light killer.
Thanks a lot for your perfect descriptions.
Great how to series! Thanks! I was observing as best I could but can you make a video that speaks specifically about hand position and finger position options for both the clutch and front brake? I don’t see this often covered well on videos but is super important. Thanks in advance!
Reminds of me what Doc Hudson said to Lightning Mcqueen. Turn Right to go left
Just one video and I already want a speed bike
The problem with teaching beginners to use the racing line on a bend in a public road is it leaves no room for error on the exit. If you make a mistake and run wide, you will end up off the road or on the wrong side of the road (depending on which way you are turning). My advice to beginners would be to enter wide as you show, but try to keep to a tighter line on exit, and give yourself some leeway if you run a bit wide.
no one here is telling anyone (let alone beginners) to take the curve as fast as possible.
Outside - Inside - Outside is taught in the MSF beginners course as the proper way to take curves and corners
not because it allows you to go at race track speeds, but because it allows you the MOST options when you are in the curve and you need to slow down, speed up, increase power or engine brake on a hill, or to avoid obstacles that you could not see when you entered the curve... and most important to be able to STOP mid turn if you must (straighten bike and brake hard)
Its not a racing line - he is not saying to cross the center line on a curve or an intersection using both sides of the pavement, as if the road has been closed for a grand prix race. This is how you should NORMALLY ride a motorcycle.
Thanks Salt the apex reminder. Now I recall that from the motorcycle license course handout...
Great stuff my guy, keep up the good work!
Wow best video ever! Feels like doing and learning at the same time. Great method of teaching
Glad it helped! Thanks for watching and good luck!
@@SALTxTHExWOUND Thank you 💙 and Subscribed!
I started out on a Gsxr 750 not gonna lie I have went down twice in 8 months since I had it and don’t regret it not one bit, lol..
Just now got to watch this! Great video. I’ve been working on getting off the bike and making my lean angle not so deep. I know since I starting practicing on my Fz07 I haven’t scraped like I used too. Definitely had to make natural when you been used to street riding for the past 7 yrs
Btw u should do a video on engine breaking when it comes to down shifting cause that’s one thing I don’t understand at all lol
it’s just when you let off the throttle & the engine goes down in rpms .. slows the bike down
Thanks for the great insight,
I have a question if I change from neutral to the 1st gear, how do I get to the 2nd gear because the 2nd is in between the 1st and the neutral
thank you! neutral is actually in between 1st and 2nd so when you’re in 1st you want to shift is with a bit of force, it doesn’t take much, but if you shift too lightly it can go into neutral. once you get the feel for it you don’t even have to think about it anymore 👍🏻
Must really be enjoying that bugg smacking thwt loud😂😂 good video i learn alot threw this series
That*
Glad you enjoyed
That is the best most insanely easy example of counter-steering ive ever seen.
Not gonna lie, i kinda got scared at 2:55 xD
thank you!
So, sorta like trying to stay in a straight line as possible with minimal efforts? Only making a slight adjustment to make the corner 😶😶? In the smaller corners, but of course, in a more bent corner, I see it'd be more lean angle before letting the bike go back to the outside. I wish I had a diagram I could share here.
I think doing a Switchback would be slightly harder in the real world than watching in the video. Thanks for explaining so well!
You're welcome! Thank you for watching! :)
Could you a braking video please? I’m new to break but seems like when I’m using the front break I’m slightly pulling the throttle it’s sooo annoying
best video so far ...
thank you!
An excellent teacher you are.
Thank you!! Awesome video for beginners, to know how to Ride a Motorcycle 🏍 Awesome!!!
Glad you liked it!
Most clear video I've seen... imma go practice this
Thanks bro this video taught me a lot.
No problem 👍
Counter steering is hard to mentally grasp,so how I practiced was using it for HWY lane changes. It may also save u in an emergency.Counter steering puts your bike into a turn angle quickly. Watch for traffic before doing.Drive safe.
Okay I think I might kinda understand what he’s saying about counter steering. So when you’re going under 15mph and u want to go right your pulling the right side of the Handel bar towards you. And when going over 15mph you’ counter steer by pushing the right side of the bar away from u to go right. Is that right?
Kris Ossorio
At slower speeds I use both hands...... but yes, essentially you are correct in what you are thinking.
Kris Ossorio You have no options, you always countersteer.
For me it is more like push down on the handle bar the direction you want to turn. I don't think I turn the bars at all to counter steer. Maybe I do and I don't realize it.
Thank you for the guides. Really helpful for beginners.
Glad to help!
I subscribe to your channel & i must say Suzuki is of my favorite bike's bro..!! Especially the 2007 Suzuki hayabusa 1300R first generation..!! From 1999 to 2007 my favorite years bro 😊👍👍👍
Thank you so much!
Hello I got a question what happens if it rains outside and my bike is out there cuz I’m scared to leave it out there if it’s going to rain and if I leave it outside will it break the bike or no?
Fair question, MOST motorcycles will not be affected by the rain at all, bikes are meant to be waterproof in a way. The main thing it will affect is your chain, you want to make sure you are keeping it lubricated so it doesn't start to rust. You can also buy a motorcycle cover, that's what I've done in the past to keep most of the rain off of the bike.
@@SALTxTHExWOUND thank you for telling me I’m probably buying a bike idk yet cuz I’m young but I like how you drive and stuff and got into bikes so I might buy one do you have any recommendations on what bike I should get to like start out?
I’m a beginner and I started on a R1
Thank you for the time and detail put into these videod
My pleasure! Thanks for watching!
VERY VERY EDUCATIONAL VIDEO!!!!!!! Thanks!!!! GREAT VIDEO BRO!!!!
Glad you liked it!
Watching for my friend. He just got a bike
Outside, inside, and then outside. If you play nascar or F1 or moto race what ever you called it, it’s the exact same thing, I always learn from video games and other ppl too. I completely understand it. I’ve never ride a bike 🏍 but I’m planning to by the GSXR 750 to start with and I’m 16 years old 😉 I can’t wait to try it I’m in love with the bike 🏍💨🔥🤩🥵
When I'm coming to a turn/curve whichever direction it's going, I always let off the throttle and cruise through it. For me on doing that I feel safer. Just like you everyone does it differently in how we learned or was taught to ride.
@@alexbenham4695 good to know, because I didn't know the actual way of doing that to be honest, so I was letting off the throttle and coasting.
You'll hear folks say "carry momentum through the corner." That just means maintain your speed through the corner. Coasting is acceptable too IMO. Riding safely is all that matters.
@@memphisunknown very true and always looking out for myself, plus all the other drivers.
Suzukiman85 Suzukiman85 Bad habbit.
@@XtreeM_FaiL it is and can be a bad habit for sure.
I just bought my first cbf f4i 600 3 days ago its been 17 years and I am scared I have only been 65 mph so far people are laughing at me but I'm still alive and my bike is not wrecked
Thanks I love how you explain it and love you your motorcycle ❤️
Great video can you make a video on how to rev bomb a motocycle
Everyone has there own way of riding
once i get my motorcycle, ill be saying outside inside my whole life, thank you
What speed and gear you are on while taking the turn?
For example, let's say you are riding at 60 mph and there is a turn at 35 mph. Do you shift down to like 3rd or 4th gear before the turn, by using engine breaking?
Speed/gear depends what bike you have.
Rule of thumb is to stay on high torque area.
Are you pushing down or pushing straight?
I got a question, does the bike lean by itself when countersteering? Or do you need to use the body to lean it and then countersteer?
Thank you for the vid, really enjoyed it
James Korkes thank you! 👊🏻
I’m looking at getting me one of those bikes
Do a video of braking when bike is in high speed or engine braking,etc!!
Engine break?lol cut it out...
Engine break?lol cut it out...
5:42 yea like what you do on a race track same thing
Very beautiful place bro, which place is this
Easy to comprehend for a beginner
Very informative video.👌Liked it.👍 Thanks for all the tips bro.🙂 And yes, if possible then do make a video on braking. Take care and ride safe.❤️🤝
What’s a good motorcycle size to dive right into ? Not to cheap
Anything 250-500cc is a great starter size
Joe I hear that storm is on its way to Florida
Hope you guys stay safe.Be well friend!
sal petrozzino thanks man! We’re on the gulf coast so we’ll likely only get some rain and storms out of it, but thank you 🙏🏻😊
I bought a 03 kawasaki zzr 1200 for my first bike 😅
When im cornnering in hi speed, and my knee is down, may i use a litlle counter steering?
Jovica Gjorgjeski If your knee is down, but you have not use countersteer?
You have already crashed.
Thanks bud!! It works perfect your help is much appreciated been hugging turns like you say thanks agn
Glad it helped
Tnx to your video its learnd me a lot. Ridede safe✌️
My pleasure 😊
Teach us how to drag elbows
Austin Hudson lol I’d have to learn myself first 😅🤣
This is very good
Thank you!
Where are you from? Do people own all that land there? Thanks for the video it helped me a lot, Cheers from Mexico
Awesome video
