Patt describes how to change the geometry of the bike by moving your body weight forward and inward - thus allowing the bike to turn in more sharply.

Thanks Baltasar for your kind comments. We put a lot of thought and work into creating these videos for you and others. Many riders - both new and experienced - want accurate information about riding in a way that keeps riding fun while making it much safer.

Hello, I came across your videos randomly and I had to comment, thank you for your hard work and for sharing your gift with us. It's truely amazing and it is quite the eye opener. I am buying a motorcycle in two weeks and I'm investing my time in learning as much as I can from your videos.

Thanks for sharing your videos!

I have been riding for 10 years and watching your video for about 2 years and the things I have learned have made me into skillful rider. Keep teaching and keep up the good work. Thank you.

46sotos: I'm the guy in white in this video. When riding in wet conditions that dont involve standing water, then the method is the same but the application infinitely more gentle and smooth. Also, we tend to discourage use of the rear brake altogether as it often does more harm than good for all but the most experienced experts. If you are an expert, than by all means use the light application of the rear brake to help keep the suspension set all the way to apex, then gradually releasing pressure on both brakes as you gradually roll on throttle to maintain good contact patch - not easy but highly effective.
