I like abrupt transitions, but they can also lead to loosing the front and back at the same time, which is fun to be honest, but i could also live without it. You have to gradually decellerate leaning when close to the chosen maximum lean so the suspension is not upsetted much.
I've seen 1000s of crashes and almost zero from a quick transition. Waaaaaaaay more crashes happen from slow transitions which require much more mid corner lean and risk
Maybe like with a faster transition you can go from straight to full turn instantly (exaggerated) and in doing that you are already pointing the bike more where you need to go. If you transition slow u spend the first 5th oth the turn only turning to, say, 75% of you capability, the middle part of the turn (3/5ths) you go your best turn radius, 100%, then by slowly transitioning out in the last fifth of the turn you again only go at 75% capability. Something like that make it understandable?
Just think average lean angle of the bike through the turn. Getting to a 22 degree lean fast will carry more average lean angle than getting to a 28 degree lean slowly. imagine taking 20 pictures in the turn and then averaging the lean angle measurements
@@socalsupermoto So, like a cut and thrust riding style? The reason I want to understand this is, I ride my 701 without ever taking my inner foot off the peg or dragging my knee. But, I can keep up with knee draggers. I think if I understood how I do that, I could do it better. One thing I know I do is lean my body way to the inside and forward at the exit of a corner, while keeping my butt planted down and back in the seat and I’m able to get on the gas at the exit, hard and quick, without losing the rear end. And, in 2nd and 3rd gear the front end will want to wheelie, way before I’ve straitened out. But, I still have some chicken strips on the front tire.
@@Shawn-in-da-Canyon When you stay upright, the bike can lean less while taking the same corner at the same speed. This is because the center of mass is higher and more to the inner of the turn. The lower the bike, the more it has to lean. That is why if when dragging knee you don't keep body away from the bike and in the turn, but you just go low and close to the bike, you don't reduce lean angle much.
But then how will I get rid of my chicken strips? 😂 Awesome instruction as always!
that's a legit concern!

What PSI are you guys running on the q3+ on the drz? I get mixed opinions. Also do you measure hot tire psi?
We set up the bikes 22psi seems to work great. On the street I run 27ish
I don’t really understand this. But, I want to. Is there a different way to explain it?,
