It’s all about having complete control over your motorcycle. This is a demonstration in 1st gear around a 30ft diameter circle on a 2020 @bmwmotorrad R1250 GS one handed.

What’s the point of learning how to get your knee down?
@motojitsuclub
First and foremost, it’s extremely fun to do…that alone is reason enough.

But for knee down itself, it certainly isn’t necessary on the street but that doesn’t mean it should be ignored completely…all the secondary benefits you gain by learning how to do it are helpful to your overall riding ability. Learning to get your knee down is all about being in full control of your motorcycle. Same could be said about tight figure 8’s or full lock turns. Do you “do that” on the street? Well no, but it does elevate your overall riding ability.

Learning and practicing full body position will give you confidence with yourself and your bike. This is a great way to practice your vision, staying relaxed, you’ll learn how the timing of when and how much you move your body makes a difference with how the bike handles and how quickly. You’ll discover where your fear threshold is and how to get past it, where to place your weight, what’s most comfortable for you based on your body shape, flexibility, and type of bike you have, it’s a great way to explore higher lean angles and practice smooth inputs on the throttle and handlebars, you’ll learn what speed & radius turns makes it easier or more challenging, etc. etc.

If you never learn how to do this or even attempt it, you’ll never understand the difficulty and benefits it provides. Side note, if you ride on the track, learning full body position at slower speeds is much less risky and will ease a bit of anxiety when going faster.

To start, set up a 40-50ft diameter circle in a clean environment, ensure you’re wearing appropriate gear, warm up your tires and give it a try.

If you’re solely focusing on trying to get your knee down, you could crash and possibly get hurt. So the focus is on your body position, timing, vision, throttle control, staying relaxed and your speed. If all those come together with proper technique, warm tires and good grip, knee down will happen

This is the real life definition of practical application. It's in the title and he even says it at the beginning, and then shows us how to do it. ""Stop talking about the theory and do it for real"" is the point.. What could be more real and practical than that?
Besides, and this is the real point of practicing, you never know when you're going to actually need the skills, but when you do it's going to get extremely real extremely fast, and the more control you've got in that moment the better your chance of a good outcome.

I would do this if I can find a parking lot that won't call the cops on me

blahblahblah

Looks nice and is a good training, but needles in real life cause nobody would pull in a parkinglot etc. like this. Left turns are easy, try right turn, challenging.
