    First time I went on the track there were some guys with track bikes at 150+ hp, racing slicks and quickshifters. They basically rode like the exact opposite of what Sylvain is saying here. Taking the wrong racing lines, letting the bike coast before braking and even then not braking hard. I was riding on my street Hypermotard 1100S (90hp) and was setting times many seconds faster. The only person faster than me was another guy on a Husqvarna 500 and the only time I was overtaken was on the straights because they simply had more power. Sylvain's channel is a goldmine of good advice, most of the stuff I had to find out by myself and it's so valuable to have a pro actually explain all these concepts.

Well done Sylvain... keep up the good videos

  • @silentfox8
    @silentfox8 2 года назад

    one think i want to add about cornering, you must rotate your throttle wrist so that your body can go all the way down in the lean and so your wrist isnt fully extended as well which limits how much more you can twist the throttle, also when cornering they often "drift" the bikes, they use the throttle to steer the bike with the back wheel so that the bike is facing more forward at the end of the corner allowing them to accelerate sooner, this also has to be done smooth or else youll lose the back and low/high side, other than that, the dude on the ecstar suzuki is dropping fact bombs, this kind of information doesnt often come free

    Both me and my son have raced (him at Darley Moor) and we are both agree that this advice is about the best we have ever heard, no bull, just really useful advice. Some of it we have been doing and some of it is new. Biggest issue with most of us is trying to carry too much corner speed and being hamstrung until you can get on the throttle. Next time out (2021!!) will go slow in and disappear out. Really value this advice Sylvain. Cmone spill the beans on the GSXRR power 300+ ;-)

  • @Gryphus-R
    @Gryphus-R 4 года назад

    Hi total newbie here. At 6:40 you recommend to brake hard and downshift quickly. I though that you professionals would do rev-matching on the bike, so this came as a surprise to me, since in cars, rev matching and heel-toe is super important.
    I guess that the lack of heavy flywheel and the slippy clutches of bikes make a difference here, but still is a surprise for me that you do such hard shifting. My intuition would tell me that not rev-matching on a bike would unsettle the rear end and the locked rear wheel would throw you off the bike, like when you downshift in a RWD car without doing heel toe, the rear locks and you spin, probably damaging your transmission along the way.
    My current bike is a dual clutch, so I let the computer do the work, but on the driving license academy (which was a manual) I would throttle blip when downshifting like in a car. Oh boy I was so wrong. XDD

Point 10 I see that a lot of people don't do it properly, they think that they are 100% throttle but they aren't.. Can you make a video on throttle pick up, how do you do it in long sweepers, medium and tight corners? Cheers!
