Hi Simon. Great videos, thanks and keep it up. My question is... you often hear about professional riders looking after or preserving their tyres during a race. How is this done? Specifically, how does their riding style change to preserve the tyre?

I remember years ago either from Keith Code, Eddie Lawson or Wayne Raney talking about centre of gravity and body position on controlling the direction of your bike. Back they everyone was controlling the 500 by the rear and most times the front was hardly touching the ground.

Regarding the weight transfer at braking, I’ve heard people say tap on the rear brake before using the front brake, to load up the forks. Is that a useful technique to use? - Ken Wang

Question for Simon: How do you regain confidence after coming off the bike and sustaining an injury? I have found (1) I didn't enjoy being on the bike, and (2) my 'automatic' focus had switched to areas to avoid on the track, rather than where I need to be. So often I would drift into the middle of the track before corners, rather than being wide on the outside.

I think I get it now. When coming out of a right turn with a very light (or off the pavement) front end under acceleration, you are literally steering with the back wheel. So leaning out over to the left will correct the rear 'steering' wheel from wanting to continue to the right cause you are literally on the right tire wall, so this 'leaning' to the left transfers the rear bias to the left. Totally makes sense to me (I think) , I could definitely see why this would have come to you instinctively . Great series. I hope you do another question series down the road , or track. : )

Hi Simon question about something I've always struggled with . I've always been told to keep loose arms and not be tense on the bars , but when you pressure the bars to start turning, mid corner I get twitches and wiggles through the bike and people say it's me inputting weight through the bars . But if I take some pressure off the inside bar the bike wants to run wide or just straighten up.

Remember the old saying... "always pay yourself first". A good race school is ten times more important then bike upgrades. You'll be better, safer, and have more fun.

I couldn't believe such valuable videos only got 3000 views, while those shit youtubers got millions of views. It might be helpful if Simon can add some example video clips when explaining some techniques.
