148bhp Posted May 7, 2004 Report Share Posted May 7, 2004 Hello, When exiting a corner still leaned over, can I get on the throttle straight away or should I get the bike upright first? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stinger562 Posted May 10, 2004 Report Share Posted May 10, 2004 You should be steady on the throttle through the corner, yes, you can add some more throttle before you are upright, if the rear starts to slide out hold steady and don't freak out, it will re-grip if you don't gas it more. my .02 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mcshin Posted May 11, 2004 Report Share Posted May 11, 2004 You should be steady on the throttle up to the apex this allows the front to bite. Once you get to the apex, roll it on...roll it on too fast, you'll get a slide, roll it on too slow and you'll be shakin your head down the straight...like me.

stuman Posted May 11, 2004 Report Share Posted May 11, 2004 Actually you want to start rolling on the throttle as soon as you get the bike turned. You shouldn?t wait for the apex or anything else. If you?re just steady on the gas the bike will decelerate, you want it to slowly accelerate through the ENTIRE corner so you have to go positive with the throttle as soon as you turn the bike. When exiting a corner you can start your drive before the bike is completely upright. You have to be careful but you can add more throttle as the bike comes up. Think of it this way, the more the bike comes up the harder you can get into the gas. We teach a skill in level 2 that can help you get on the gas sooner and harder on the exit. It?s the last drill for you guys that have done level two already. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blue636 Posted June 3, 2004 Report Share Posted June 3, 2004 First, you get really hard on the brakes and you start backing it in and smoking the rear tire... then you rip the bike down into the corner and you power wheelie upon exit. Simple, eh? Sorry... it's getting really late. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
