so once the rear starts sliding is it better to ease off the throttle but not all the way to save it? or when that low there's no saving but just better to close it off entirely and go for a lowslide?
@idkyoo It really depends on the conditions, if it's dry or wet. As said in the description, if it's dry, you just have to ease the throttle in order to keep the wheel spinning but a little slower to allow it to grip again. When you close the throttle completely, the wheel slows in a brutal way and will grip instantaneously : you will high-side. If it's wet, only luck will save you and it's better to lowslide indeed.
@idkyoo There's yet another way. If you look at Casey Stoner's riding style, you'll see that he slides his rear wheel almost in every corner when he accelerates. But the difference between that and losing grip is that he does it on purpose so he's ready for it. And by keeping the throttle wide open, he avoids high siding. He can do it because he's one of rare ones who actually disables traction control, because he says that it slows him. Check on youtube with Stoner powerslide.
In the wet it's tricky I've had a crash recently in the wet and cold weather, the back stepped out pretty violently I kept the throttle open and it just spun and luckily front gave up also saving me from highside. In the wet and cold keeping even neutral throttle may not be of much help the rear will just come round on you albeit less violently when compared to sudden regaining grip and highsiding :)
@yoseb92 Throttle is a valve that lets air into the engine. When you want your engine to stop spinning so fast, you close the throttle. On a motorcycle this is done with a twist of the right hand grip.
Interesting. The human, instinctual reaction when the rear starts to slide would probably be to immediately chop the throttle. I'm hoping that I can train myself to not do that, but if a professional racer did it, boy, I really have to watch it because his skill is only about 1,000 times better than mine. Then again, he's going way faster than I'd ever try in a turn, so I hope I can avoid this type of thing happening.
The guy ALMOST highsided, you can see him let off the throttle as it was starting to flip over. he just let off the gas in time for it to lowside instead.
Deceptive, misleading title and description, even if correct. If you want to show a typical high side reaction, show a bike that HAS actually high sided AND a bike that has high sided because of the track condition (dry track and hot tires). Dovisiozo is a seasoned professional, who reacted correctly to wet track conditions. He knew he wasn't going to save it and reacted accordingly. The author implies he was at fault for crashing, yet bases his argument on D/T conditions.Not fair to the rider.
BTW, bike was well and truly gone before he backed the throttle off. I presume you are inferring he lost control of the bike because he backed off the throttle quickly. Nah, not right.
Good to see you corrected yourself about a high side in the description..If i lose my rear in the wet, i'm going to back some of the throttle off as quick as possible. No way you're going to regain traction in the wet and maintain throttle position, as if in the dry, once it starts to slide. He DID back off the throttle quickly, how far he backed it off is anyone's guess? He was gone once the back tyre slid out and i think he did the right thing, seen as how he was going to crash anyway.
@kylepierce88 "On a dry track this would have led most probably to a high-side crash. On this wet track it ended in a low-side slide initiated by the rear losing grip."
-Description
He meant that this WOULD lead to a high-side, thus a typical high-side reaction. (Reaction that causes high-sides)
So the title is completely correct, but morons can't grasp it
Unfortunately most of us would just shut the throttle under these circumstances which apart from high side in the dry could lead to losing the front tire like in this video from overwhelming weight transfer. Sounds quite straightforward in theory but in real life ... It's bloody difficult to get rid of that reaction to rear end slide.
And... no one is smart enough to actually read the description. CLEARLY it is a lowside, but the vid is supposed to be about the throttle reaction which would have caused a highside on a dry day. GEEZE people
This is the beginning of a high-side, because the back is trying to 'catch' the front (maybe too much accelerator too early). Lowside is when you lose the front and the bike just slips to the exterior of the curve. To put it in another way, a high-side is characterized by sudden and violent rotation around the long axis of the motorcycle in the direction of travel. Exactly what happened here.
Read the description. This was a low-side that COULD have been a high side. Probably would have been if it wasn't wet. You can see where the rear is going way out (ie heading towards a high-side), but grip is gone and he just low-sides it instead.
Title is correct. 5 seconds in you see his right hand literally chop the throttle. Reaction to what he was feeling of a slide coming in. Would normally result in high side. Wet track "saved" his ass from flipping up in the air.
Title is correct but worded wrongly..It's the reaction which WOULD have lead to a high side if the track was dry - this way it "only" ended in a low side
his right hand probably moved to to the kill switch....he knew he was going down so he likely had the good sense to kill the motor to save it from running on its side and possibly ingesting water/dirt. Gotta save those motors when u only have 6 of them
Ya'll don't understand that what typically happens is when your rear wheel looses grip, as you're lowsiding, people chop the throttle, and what happens sometimes is the back catches grip, and then you highside. Best thing to do when you lose grip, is stay on the throttle.
closest you could probably do is lock the rear wheel and just low side it. Once the rear is out of place, it is better to lay it down then to ruin your world with a high side.
Wow - good clip. Now the interesting thing to discuss is... what could he have done to save it? If that was even possible at all? So much different to any kind of riding anyone else could ever do, riding on the limit like that I've gotta say no way to save it. Maybe he tried to put his knee into the track and hold it up, but that was a pretty fast corner and he was gone.
Read the description before you comment and look like an idiot... It's a lowside that WOULD have been a highside if the track was dry. Chopping the throttle closed when your rear wheel is 'beside' you will cause the rear to regain grip and fling you up and over. The track was wet enough to keep the rear from grabbing the pavement again when he closed the throttle.
@shimric20 That's what the uploader is saying. Just pause the video at about 0:05 and you will see him losing the rear end. He then lets off the throttle. He does this because he is expecting the rear tire to suddenly grip, therefore making the bike suddenly snap back into position, therefore causing a high side. The video is titled "Typical High-Side throttle reaction" because it is demonstrating a typical technique of avoiding a high side (letting of the throttle and low siding).
@HamMan1997 he loses the front not the rear, pause it at 0.06 and look at the steering angle on front wheel, rarely ever lose the rear in the wet, nice gentle crash this :P he shuts the throttle cause its an instinct, losing the front from carrying too much corner speed, instinct is to try and scrub off some speed to catch front grip again.
@epicdeal Read the description. He is making the point that on a DRY track, this would lead to a high-side. Snapping the throttle off in a situation like this can indeed lead to a high-side.
I'm impressed he took it that hard on a wet track. Great wet tires! Congrats on wrecking for a good reason.
