Make SHARPER Turns With This SIMPLE Exercise

I know getting to full lock on your motorcycle is challenging for some people. Some are afraid to turn their handlebars all the way. With this simple exercise, this will allow you to become more comfortable. Practice this motorcycle maneuver in an empty parking lot. I only use one cone for a point of reference, but you really don't need one. Practice this, and you are sure to hit full lock in no time! #motorcyclefulllockturns #motorcycletraining #howtoturnamotorcycle #motorcyclemaneuvers #motorcycledrills #howtorideamotorcycle #motorcyclepracticedrills #motorcyclefulllock #fulllockmotorcycle #motorcycleconedrills #motorcycledrillstopractice #joegoemotorcycleadventures #motorcyclemaneuveringtips #motorcycletips

I used to fear locking the bars, afraid of tipping over. Now it brings a smile to my face. 6-MPH is about the slowest I want to travel, which keeps the bike upright.

My slow turn skills are poor, mostly because I have a fear of locking the bars, losing speed, and tipping over, and I really don't want to pick up my Limited. lol This is the first time I have seen a video that suggests a duck walk to get that feel. It's so simple, I don't know why I didn't think of it, but none of the other teaching experts have suggested it, either. THANK YOU for putting this out there. Going to try it today!

That's the best slow-speed turning tutorial I've seen! This first phase practice is never mentioned by all the "Guru's" on PewTube but it's absolutely the best way to start out and get the feel of moving your bike with your handlebars in full lock and learning the friction zone IMHO!
Subscribed!

Can’t believe that nobody suggested this before. I tried it this morning for the first time. Worked great.

Everyday before I pull into my driveway on my motorcycle I make sure I do a fulllock turn both ways before I pull in.

Hi Joe, Yesterday I spilled my bike making a left turn. I was demoralized. I keep a camera on me and one on the bike so I can analyze all my rides (and drops). I realized my mistakes - the first was stupid - I wasn’t in the right gear. The second was fear - I needed to turn my handlebars more but have been essentially scared of doing so for some reason. I’ve been scouring YT for videos about locking handlebars and this one really got me. Thank you for keeping it real and simple. Can’t wait to go out again today.

I just passed my motorcycle test today. I took a Harley Davison three day course and rode a bike for the first time I became certified on the third day. The sharp turn from a stop motion was the hardest for me because of the friction zone and throttle control

Stumbled on to this video a few days ago. Immediately subscribed. Was immediately hooked on your teaching style. Love watching slow speed maneuvers. Got my police seat for my Ultra Limited this weekend. Waiting on primary and crash bar its practice Thanks to you and your fellow you tube family for all the great videos and Keep up the good work Joe!

Great tip and slow video. I've been riding some 50 years and never have tried this. Now I will.

[Neithersilvernorgold]

Good job Joe, that’s exactly what I do when I’m working with someone on full lock.

[jolkraeremeark]

Very well done and easy to follow instructional video. Thank you!

[dcccharles]

What a practical and hands on way to initiate learning to perform tight turns by feeling comfortable and developing confidence prior to actual exercise. Excellent tutorial and greatly appreciated!

[michaelb.]

This is great advice. I'm a re-entry rider of 20 years, and I saw a newbie today struggling, which made me SO happy because he's out there DOING it and in a week or two he will be riding for FUN, not Fright.

[MrAxes]

Great practice technique. Everyone regardless of how long they’ve been riding should practice this

[ELTarTree]

I've been riding sports bikes for 42 years, just got my 1st big cruiser and struggling with turning. Your demo clearly shows one stretched arm and other elbow tucked back. Obviously I need to be more assertive with wider bars. Thank you

[MightySultan]

Your exercise IS THE BEST, MOST EFFECTIVE technique to doing full-lock maneuvers! By transitioning from duck-walk, the rider learns how to manage all the elements together: balance the bike/body position, handlebars at full lock, throttle/clutch/friction zone, rear brake. BRAVO!!! THANK YOU

[babounce]

I learned more in this 5 min video than the 50 videos I watched of the ( other guys )
Thanks

[KH-uvph]

Love your teaching style. You explain and demonstrate it so well. Thank you!

[jamesthomas]

Haven’t ridden in 6 months .. picking up my road king today will be doing this exercise thank you

[mortondavisproductions]

Thank you. I have begun to practice the duck walk part of this... will do in both directions. On my part, it is going to take lots of practice, but I am determined to get turns down. I have starts and stops to a point where I am no longer intimidated by my bike, so now, turns are next on my agenda. I hadn't ridden in thrifty years and had never ridden bikes larger than 750cc. I now ride a 2016 Indian Roadmaster and I love this bike... I practice techniques for riding every time I take the bike out for a ride... am so grateful for the insights about motorcycle riding those competent riders post on YouTube... I recently read a review that showed Indian cruisers as being some of the most difficult to turn due to the way the handlebars lock on those bikes... however, practice makes perfect, and I will master this in due time... again, thank you.
