- Опубликовано: 11 май 2022
- I know getting to full lock on your motorcycle is challenging for some people. Some are afraid to turn their handlebars all the way. With this simple exercise, this will allow you to become more comfortable. Practice this motorcycle maneuver in an empty parking lot. I only use one cone for a point of reference, but you really don't need one. Practice this, and you are sure to hit full lock in no time! #motorcyclefulllockturns #motorcycletraining #howtoturnamotorcycle #motorcyclemaneuvers #motorcycledrills #howtorideamotorcycle #motorcyclepracticedrills #motorcyclefulllock #fulllockmotorcycle #motorcycleconedrills #motorcycledrillstopractice #joegoemotorcycleadventures #motorcyclemaneuveringtips #motorcycletips

My slow turn skills are poor, mostly because I have a fear of locking the bars, losing speed, and tipping over, and I really don't want to pick up my Limited. lol This is the first time I have seen a video that suggests a duck walk to get that feel. It's so simple, I don't know why I didn't think of it, but none of the other teaching experts have suggested it, either. THANK YOU for putting this out there. Going to try it today!
No problem Kent! Report back and let me know how it went!
That's the best slow-speed turning tutorial I've seen! This first phase practice is never mentioned by all the "Guru's" on PewTube but it's absolutely the best way to start out and get the feel of moving your bike with your handlebars in full lock and learning the friction zone IMHO!
Subscribed!
I appreciate the kind words Damifino. I thought of this one day and thought it was a decent idea just to see how it feels. Obviously though, the goal is to have your feet up whenever the motorcycle is moving. Thanks for subscribing and for your feedback!
Everyday before I pull into my driveway on my motorcycle I make sure I do a fulllock turn both ways before I pull in.
That's a great thing to do. I do the same when leaving work!
Stumbled on to this video a few days ago. Immediately subscribed. Was immediately hooked on your teaching style. Love watching slow speed maneuvers. Got my police seat for my Ultra Limited this weekend. Waiting on primary and crash bar protectors........then its practice time!!!!!! Thanks to you and your fellow you tube family for all the great videos and inspiration...........Priceless!!!!!!! Keep up the good work Joe!
Can’t believe that nobody suggested this before. I tried it this morning for the first time. Worked great.
That's fantastic Tom! Glad it helped you!
I just passed my motorcycle test today. I took a Harley Davison three day course and rode a bike for the first time I became certified on the third day. The sharp turn from a stop motion was the hardest for me because of the friction zone and throttle control
Good job Joe, that’s exactly what I do when I’m working with someone on full lock.
Excellent Joe. Love it!
Very well done and easy to follow instructional video. Thank you!
Great tips Joe!!👍🏾
Thank you for your tutorial.. I love your motorcycle 👍😊
Hi Joe, Yesterday I spilled my bike making a left turn. I was demoralized. I keep a camera on me and one on the bike so I can analyze all my rides (and drops). I realized my mistakes - the first was stupid - I wasn’t in the right gear. The second was fear - I needed to turn my handlebars more but have been essentially scared of doing so for some reason. I’ve been scouring YT for videos about locking handlebars and this one really got me. Thank you for keeping it real and simple. Can’t wait to go out again today.
The most important point is that you know exactly what you did wrong. This is the only way you learn. I am so happy that I was able to help! This is the exact reason why I am doing this. Keep on practicing and thank you for watching and for your feedback!
🏜️✊🏽
Good advice, gonna work that in my practice session
Good idea!
I like your teaching style, Joe. Subscribed!
Great tip and slow video. I've been riding some 50 years and never have tried this. Now I will.
Thank you. Let me know how it goes!
That is excellent info thanks Joe. Can’t wait until your next video
Appreciate it Merrell! There will be more videos to come! I appreciate you watching and your feedback. Ride safe
Love your teaching style. You explain and demonstrate it so well. Thank you!
Thank you so much! I really appreciate it!
This is great advice. I'm a re-entry rider of 20 years, and I saw a newbie today struggling, which made me SO happy because he's out there DOING it and in a week or two he will be riding for FUN, not Fright.
Thank you so much!
Thanks Joe. I'm going to practice this.
No problem! Let me know how it goes!
I believe one factor for success was not mentioned. Counter-balancing. It doesn't appear you use it but it is worthy of mentioning. Simmons and others mention it. As a matter of fact, in some of the more recent videos, you can actually observe Simmons scooting his 'seat' side to side when making some tight turns.
Your videos are actually pretty good. interesting to see these after I realized that it was you that almost hit Cue in a U-Turn exercise. 🙂
Yes, counter balancing will definitely help. When I almost hit Cue, I got "stuck" in the turn. He was at the wrong place at the right time. However, I'm glad that happened because now we are really good friends 🤣
I learned more in this 5 min video than the 50 videos I watched of the ( other guys )
Thanks
My pleasure Mark. I'm glad I was able to provide some value. Thanks for watching and for your feedback!
What a practical and hands on way to initiate learning to perform tight turns by feeling comfortable and developing confidence prior to actual exercise. Excellent tutorial and greatly appreciated!
No problem Charles! Sometimes we have to crawl before we run! Thank you for the kind words and watching.
Merci pour la leçon 👍 🇨🇵
You rock! Thank you so much for the lesson mate!
No problem Douglas! I appreciate you watching!
I've been riding sports bikes for 42 years, just got my 1st big cruiser and struggling with turning. Your demo clearly shows one stretched arm and other elbow tucked back. Obviously I need to be more assertive with wider bars. Thank you
No problem at all! If it's too much of a stretch for you, I would suggest getting some narrower bars. It makes a world of difference. Factory 47 makes perfect bars
Your exercise IS THE BEST, MOST EFFECTIVE technique to doing full-lock maneuvers! By transitioning from duck-walk, the rider learns how to manage all the elements together: balance the bike/body position, handlebars at full lock, throttle/clutch/friction zone, rear brake. BRAVO!!! THANK YOU
I appreciate that. Just something I thought of and threw it out there. Had no idea it would help so many people. Thank you!
Thank you so much this is a huge help!
No problem! Glad I could help!
Thank you. Practice
No problem Eddie!
Great practice technique. Everyone regardless of how long they’ve been riding should practice this
Thanks Rob, I agree!
Good joke
No jokes here!
Great info Joe much appreciated 👍
@@JoeGoeMotorcycleAdventures thank you Joe
Beautiful bike! Thanks for the tip!
Thanks Reginald! I greatly appreciate it!
I’m gonna try this technique. I dropped my street glide Saturday trying to do a u turn to the left full lock from stop.
Thank you. I have begun to practice the duck walk part of this... will do in both directions. On my part, it is going to take lots of practice, but I am determined to get turns down. I have starts and stops to a point where I am no longer intimidated by my bike, so now, turns are next on my agenda. I hadn't ridden in thrifty years and had never ridden bikes larger than 750cc. I now ride a 2016 Indian Roadmaster and I love this bike... I practice techniques for riding every time I take the bike out for a ride... am so grateful for the insights about motorcycle riding those competent riders post on RUclips... I recently read a review that showed Indian cruisers as being some of the most difficult to turn due to the way the handlebars lock on those bikes... however, practice makes perfect, and I will master this in due time... again, thank you.
It's definitely a process, but you will get there. You already have the mindset of having to practice. Yes I've heard Indians have to make larger turns due to their wheelbase. I appreciate you watching and leaving your feedback!
Thanks for this tip! I’ve been struggling practicing the sharp turns for my license test. This exercise gives me some confidence. Would love if you could give some pointers in how to approach a rolling U-Turn.
No problem at all, glad I could help! Take a look on my channel, I have a few videos giving tips on U-turns. I appreciate you watching!
Great job Joe. Its not easy to talk while your concentrating on everything else!!
Haven’t ridden in 6 months .. picking up my road king today will be doing this exercise thank you
No problem James. Let me know how it goes!
Great suggestion. I feel pretty comfortable with left tight turns but struggle with the right. May be because the clutch is a bit of a strech but I've never really practiced in a parking lot. I'm 60 and got my bike license at 14 before I even had a car license. Its rare to need to turn that thight but handy in case you do.
Everyone has a weak side. Definitely good to be able to perform the tight turns when you need it! Appreciate you watching and leaving your feedback.
it works!......thx man
No problem!
Thanks. You really helped me.
@@seigi11 no problem at all. I am so happy to hear this! This makes it all worth it

Thanks Joe Goe, this makes a lot of sense. Just subscrbed
No problem, I appreciate it!
Thank you
No problem Nicolas, I hope this helped!
Great practice tip, Duck Walk.
Just for the first iteration so you can get the feel of what full lock is. The goal is to do it without duck walking!
Dude your bike has sick paint job love it!
Appreciate it, I absolutely love it!
I practiced doing tight turn a lot, never was able to master it. Not even close. But I can do a tight U turn using that duckwalk method, and that's what I've settled on as my method.
Try intentionally practicing the first exercise (duck walking) then slowly ease yourself into the second exercise. Even if you don't go full lock, just get comfortable making the turn with your feet on the floorboards. You can do it!
EXCELLENT demo!! I’m going to do this tomorrow! Thank you!
Thanks Dean. Let me know how it goes!
@@JoeGoeMotorcycleAdventures I just got back from practicing what you showed in your video. I completed every step slowly, and I was actually surprised that I could do it!!!! . I didn't drop my bike even once in the 360s or the U-turns. I do feel much more comfortable and confident now. I also found out that since the idle seems quite high on my bike, I can actually do these 360 turns and U-turns by using only the clutch in the friction zone and a little rear brake when the front wheel wants to straighten out. SUCCESS! You helped me overcome my of 360s and U-turns!! Now I just hope the weather stays nice so that I can practice this every day. Thanks Joe!!!
@@deanbush I am thrilled this worked out for you! That is exactly my goal. Starting off with baby steps help you realize you can do it! It's also great that you can do this with only the friction zone. That will help you master controlling your clutch. Keep up the great work, and I hope the weather breaks soon out here in Ohio. Ride safe!
@@JoeGoeMotorcycleAdventures Thanks for your reply, Joe!
I'd like to try To Do that quite a bit but I have Vertigo so the right size worst in the left side sleep but I do handle my. Motorcycle quite well and take tight areas coz I've been writing motorcycle for many many years.
It's just a little harder but Hurley than it was. What a golden goaling you could with that right around without a problem. The highly Scott more bottom weight some makes a little bit more difficult but I do manage.
Have just recently moved into a new home, with the driveway from hell !!!
It's a super tight (with a life ending drop off on one edge) 45 degrees climb over about 25 Mts (82 Ft) and then a tight hairpin turn back into the garage at the top.
I've sure as hell had no other option, than to learn very quickly all about clutch/brake and friction control zones real fast!
I can now make a 180-degree turn, in a 9ft space on a steep slope, at about 7 KMH (4 miles) per hour.

Duck walking great tip, thankyou
No problem. But the duck walking is only to get comfortable. We definitely want to get to the point where we don't duck walk.
Motta super da
I'll give'er a go.
Let me know how it goes!
The sound of the motorcycle is DAMN gooooood.
Thanks brother. TAB performance .50 cal slip ons and 2-1-2 headers. Love em!
Thank you i will try that
No problem Sharon! Let me know how it goes!
@@JoeGoeMotorcycleAdventures i will let u no. Its been a journey for learning to ride a motorbike i keep getting interruptions. X
@@sharonstreet5311 I hear ya. Life can get in the way sometimes.
I am a super new rider and training with a Honda Grom. I assume that should be super easy compared to a bike like you have.
Every-time I try a full lock turn I find half way through the turn I straighten out. Now have watched several videos on full lock turns and yours is the best due the fact you teach that duck walk. I will try that and also the fear of dropping the bike is gone on that while one sees how the turn will look.
If your bars are straightening out, that means you have too much speed. Once you start going too fast, your bars will straighten out.
Thanks very kindly for your reply. I am doing just idle speed and no throttle and do about 4 MPH and I guess that is too much speed so I would need to add back brake a bit.@@JoeGoeMotorcycleAdventures
Yes, if you find yourself going a little too fast, drag the rear brake a bit.

I appreciate you brother!
I just started practicing U-turns on my Night Rod....NOT forward controls and stock handlebars.....first attempt I discovered I have to get my butt on the oposite side AND get my leg out of the way of locking handlebars....left turn butt on right side of seat and left knee kicked out
I've had couple practices with this bike and still having hard time...especially right u-turn
Lotsa practice on Wide Glide and when I need to u-turn I just do it
One thing I did with WG that I haven't done on N-rod is just doing circles......I need to do that
I would suggest changing out the handlebars. I know most stock handlebars are entirely too low and can get in the way. Keep on practicing!
Nice work. I had to watch that uh oh twice... just to give you more watch time. Hahaha
Hi I like your video. I have a question it’s normal to have more problems to turn I one of the sides
Yes it's normal. Everyone has a strong side and a weak side.
I’m a first time rider learning on a fat boy and I’m having problems with turning from a stop,do you have a video for that?
I don't, but I will add that to my list!
Just to my safety course and got my endorsement. This was the one thing I had trouble with. I wish they would have taught us this first rather than just kinda saying go do it after he did it once.
Congrats on earning your endorsement!
I used to make tight u-turns. Then I got raised handlebars and can’t do a full lock turn. Should I get the raised bars tilted towards me a little?
You can tilt them to you a little bit. If that doesn't work, then you need shorter bars. I had 12" KST's, then I changed to 10" Factory 47's. Made a world of difference. Also, the width of the bars really matters.
Awesome video Joe and so easy to understand your content. You got a new subscriber. I do have a question for you and would love your opinion. My last bike was a Street Glide which I sold 17 years ago and haven't ridden since and buying a bike a new bike next month for my 62nd bday. I know as we age I keep reading that lighter bikes are easier on older people to handle which makes total sense we lose muscle as we age. I not in shape but am 5'7" and weigh 140 lbs. When I saw the new Low Rider ST with that 117 engine I was like fuck yeah, there she is. But then I read she weighs 727 lbs which is still not a light bike. So here is my question. I live in Austin TX and do not even own a car. Just an ebike for past 7 years. So this new bike will be ridden all over city including supermarkets so 100% I need saddlebags. I also hear that the Texas Hill Country which I think is like 15 minutes outside of where I live has some great roads for bikers. I have only owned Harleys but just saw a video for the new Indian Scout 101. She weighs in at a svelte 547 lbs. Do you think because she ways so much less than the ST she would give me close to the same torgue? I do not like going 100 MPH especially at my age but LOVE 0 to 60 as quickly as possible. More importantly do you think the lighter Scout will be safer and make my riding experience more enjoyable? Just curious which bike you think makes more sense for an old fucker like me who wants to do both city and TX Hill country riding? Safe travels my friend🙏
Hey Bob. Both of those bikes sit pretty low. That definitely helps when it comes to handling the weight. Honestly, I would go and test ride both bikes to see which one feels better to you. Just remember, no matter the weight of the bike, nothing changes when it comes to the fundamentals. I know guys your age riding a heavy Ultra! You can always buy saddlebags for the Indian if you like it better. Hope this helps and appreciate you subscribing!
@@JoeGoeMotorcycleAdventures Thanks for the quick response. . Going to take your advice and test ride both bikes. Appreciate the great content you put out and going to watch some more of your of your videos now. Safe riding my friend✌
@director2bob no problem at, always glad to help! Appreciate you watching!
@@JoeGoeMotorcycleAdventures And just noticed the Army patch on your vest so thanks for your service my friend as I am also a vet. 👍
@director2bob thank you for your service as well brother!
Just ride the back brake , use it as a throttle .. pretty simple
I drag the back brake a little, but I try not to depend on it.
It's called friction zone and look where u want to go im 10 seconds in bit I paid for the class to get my license and I paid attention. 🙃
I'm going to try this, but I have such a fear of dropping it, damaging my new $$$ custom crash guards and also, not being able to pick it back up when practicing by myself in some parking lot. 😒
We spend a bunch of money on upgrades, but most of us don't invest in being safe. Can you put the motorcycle drop guards on your crash bars? That will give you piece of mind. Try it out and let me know how it works. Thanks for watch and for your feedback!
@@JoeGoeMotorcycleAdventures Hi Joe. The engine crash bars on my bike are a large 2" diameter and no one makes drop guards that big. 🙁I bought the King Rhino engine guards by Wings Performance, after seeing and liking them on Professor Robert Simmons bike. Mine are gloss black and really nice. I enjoy your videos Joe! Thx
Oh, also.... my custom handle bars I put on are very wide @ 41" end to end. It's a real reach if locked.
I can full lock my bike with ease however it doesn't have the best turning radius at slow speed
For some reason I only can do this going right
You just have to practice going left. Practice is the key!
geez, I forgot my chaps and cut
Lol
Next time add a hill. Hate the 90 degree turn with a hill.
Nothing changes. All the same fundamentals apply.
Walking your bike means you have balance problems, duck walking should be left to sailors 😂
I hear your viewpoint, but this is just to feel what it's like to be at full lock. The main goal is to not duck walk anymore.
@@JoeGoeMotorcycleAdventures ok sir I get what your saying now, no disrespect meant,, keeping your feet on your boards or pegs at slow speeds does take yrs of practice, I'm so old I quess I don't think abt it much 😂🤣
@@markhanson3981 I hear ya. I just wanted to clarify. I'm a firm believer of getting your feet on the floorboards as soon as the bike starts moving. No offense taken!
I'm a newbie, riding a 1200cc Triumph Trophy SE for about 3 weeks now - biggest bike I've ever ridden. Totally comfortable with it at speed, but in a state of terror every time I have to park or back it up or make a U-turn. I can't bring myself to attempt a full lock turn - it just goes against my senses. And if I drop this baby out on a ride away from home, I'm toast. Absolutely no way I could ever pick it up.
I would suggest having someone come with you and practice. It’s easy to go fast and straight, but we need to train ourselves to be proficient at slow speed maneuvers. Go seek some training, you’ll be amazed on how much more enjoyable it is to ride!
🙌🏼🏜️✊🏽
Did you try to start the second part of the exercise without starting your motorcycle 🤣🤣🤣
No lol. I kept it off until I was ready to start the exercise 🤣
This must be something to do with Harley riders i guess
You do this pretty much on any bike
Maybe get a motorcycle that isn't dressed up as a car?
Maybe you should mind your own business.
@@accuratealloys Dur....
Lol
This is how to make a turn with a car, or even driving your truck.
Your bike do not turn this way.
This is the reason for about 80% of crashes on bike’s.
Have you ever seen, the 100 of video’s, bike’s running off the road in turns?
They drive their bike, like they drive their cars.
Just stop doing this. You can’t teach other people, things you don’t know how to do, your self.
This is for slow speed maneuvers to get you out of tight spaces. What's the harm of making a tighter turn? The handlebars turn to full lock, so why not take advantage of it and become a better rider? Besides, it's impossible to turn your handlebars to full lock at speed. I appreciate you watching and leaving your feedback
@@JoeGoeMotorcycleAdventures - I have see people all the time, not full lock, but enough to lose the front and crash.
Most of them are blamed on target fixation, gravel or low grip. And you can see them turn the bars the wrong way. And it is not nothing, when people are dying because of this.
I understand that this is only slow speed, you are talking about in this video. But still important to make clear the other part of this.
It don’t do much when a person has low technical skills and training. And they have to turn more in a turn. People do what they have trained, and not what they should do.
I almost run off the road myself. But I have much experience on breaking hard. So that saved me from running off a cliff. If I was going faster, I would not made it.
Always put in some counter steer training at the end. It will save your life one day.
It is not talked about enough…
I have no idea what you are talking about, this is pretty much how everyone makes a very slow speed tight turn. Throttle up, friction zone, drag rear brake a bit, roll the bike under you to counter balance, turn head, turn bars in direction you need to go. Are you really trying to suggest if you were making a right turn from a dead stop you would counter-steer? Of course not. How about at 1 MPH? 3 MPH? Still no. Maybe at about around 10+. But that's not what this video is about.
@@magsteel9891 well said
@@magsteel9891 - So you are telling us, that you don’t know how bike’s turn?
You understand 100% what I say. But you have been lied to, and you can’t handle it. You rather die, then admit you where lied to.
You should look at the movie “Twist of the wrist 2”
CS always works, and the only thing that makes a bike turn. - Keith Code.
Or read the book.
This is not news. It’s about 50 years old.
And you still calling me a liar…
Yes, a bike will turn counter, from a standstill.
Ever seen bikers take a turn, steering like a car, gives a little to much trottle. And the bike stand up and turn the opposite way. Rider panic and crash.
You can even try it your self. Don’t blame me when you crash.
I have done this once, and almost died. So never again…
Awesome thanks I really appreciate it and I learned something 😊
No problem Troy! My pleasure!
