This is by far the best tutorial for counter steering. I've been watching and reading everything I could find on this topic and your video is the best. Perfect timing as well, I just brought home a new Ducati SCRAMBLER Desert Sled today.😎

It was your warhorse story that made me come back on top of a bike, for the first time, after nearly getting killed in a traffic accident about 14 years ago...
In more or less a month I bought a new adv bike, and if all goes well, in three years I should upgrade to a t700.
Been recalling a lotta stuff and getting a new understanding and new stuff in these videos. Things that weren't available to me in my youth.
I'll never be at the level of a guy like you but since I got back and refound myself and a sort of joy that was long forgotten, I stopped smoking and I just get out every time I can.
It's like if I'm a bit of an old warhorse myself.
Thanks mate.
Cheers.

I've just started with offroading with nobody around to teach me all the stuff i need. This man is the cool off-road encyclopedia helping me out with everything i need to know

Just went spent 2 days practising the weightless chassis technique, I must say I went from being terrified of the throttle to loving it I had so much fun shifting my weight back an forward to find the perfect spot for that back end to drift as it pleases I highly recommend this to anyone who wants to ride offroad it is perfect.

I think I speak for thousands off off road riders when I say we trust and appreciate your tutorials mate.
Thank you for the passion, time and effort you put in to help us all.

Your style in both riding and presenting is awesome. Down to earth, funny and informative.

Hi,
I watched this yesterday and the extra understanding from this video just saved my life today.
I was practicing faster exiting turns on asphalt moutain roads. I was being mindful of this video, feeling the chassis relax, as car came at me the wrong way at the exit of a blind corner. I had both tires drifting with the back out, but managed to squeeze out of the corner whilst full braking. (ABS off).
it just kept swinging in the right direction as i got up and leaned forward.
Tried and tested, even on road.
Scary encounter, but definitely got a new skill :)

Thanks for saving my sorry ass.
Much love.

You got a great natural feeling for motorcycle riding.
Alot of people can do this technique but not many will feel and understand what the bike is actually doing, relaxing the chassis and let it choose it own path.

Love your videos man....thank you for sharing your knowledge with us...I start riding motorcicles only 1 year ago (Im 52 years old) and every advice is useful for me....thank you and greetings from ARGENTINA.

[nagendrarao]

you are the best teacher in this field.

[ridelifenz]

Definitely the most practical lessen I've ever seen. Brilliant demonstration. I just practiced on my 390 and suddenly I was nailing it. What a buzz. thanks mate.

[gumbyenduroadventures]

So many people can ride like this, so few can explain how its done. Great work mate.

After being able to do all this automatically as a kid it’s surprising how at 53 I no I can do this stuff & much more. Over 30yrs without a bike it comes back far easier when you can watch others with more experience explain in detail. Great videos.

Once I realised this simple cornering style on the road my cornering became so mush more sure and solid and easy, it utilises the gyroscopic effect of the front wheel, in that the force applied to the gyro acts at 90 degrees to that force so in effect the front wheel pulls you around the corner by the gyro effect and not just road grip. Great content cheers.

Yes!! Finally! I've been looking for a high-speed gravel/dirt cornering technique for an adventure-bike for a long time! Thank you!

[mototouro]

"It's about being able to go fast safely" Great stuff again Adam, and we'll explained. I live in Thailand now, and most of the local riders here have no idea how to corner fast, or safely. Dirt or road.

10:50 At 70 years old & 56 yrs riding you are my hero. I always learn something from you. Thank you.

[whitedrguy]

After many years of riding on dirt, and not at a high level by any means, you do learn a lot, mainly through accident but rear wheel steering is something you just end up doing sub consciously after a while, even at my pedestrian pace.

The one thing that curbs my enthusiasm mostly on dirt roads is the threat of a FWD bull bar coming the other way, blind right hand corners where the camber drops to the left and all the gravel builds up to make traction very up predictable in the front.

Love to see some riding tips on real riding scenarios where vision is limited by trees and hills and where there are actually other road users,
Victorian high country for example, the idea of traffic coming the other way is ever present.
👍👍👍👍👍

Thanks so much for this, I spent many a day as a kid skidding my mountain bike like this and naturally did this on a dirt bike too. I guess muscle memory helped there. I would never be able to articulate it like you have here. Please keep making these videos, you are a great teacher

[BrSan-insf]

Take a moment to appreciate the efforts of such a guy, sharing many years of experience with us, Thanks Mate!
