Robert, I'm back! This I'm here so you can be the first to hear from me that I christened both floorboards for the first time today. Got three scrapes u-turning left, and said, "Well I can't be uneven about it" and managed one scrape to the right. Coolest feeling ever and I've probably been a centimeter away for like two weeks. I barely leaned any more than I already was and I was already pretty much doing full lock turns consistently. So far, just quick mid-turn scrapes. Nothing full turn or in a circle yet, but still. For those reading and still trying to get full-lock, floor-board scraping u-turns, you should definitely feel like the motorcycle is "pulling you through the turn." Definitely the best description of how it feels. With sufficient power to the wheel, it really just kind of feels like any other turn or manuever. There's nothing unstable about it when you do it correctly, despite your brain telling you "this is going to be unstable" as you approach the turn, it's really not. I had to go a little faster than what I had been practicing, but the difference in my radius wasn't even noticeable and was probably tighter with the additional lean.
You just scared the crap out of me on that first tight U turn from a stop. lol

Also, I completed MSF course today. Course was great, great group, great instructor. I introduced a few people to the channel and invited them to become preloaders and a few people already knew about the channel. I can't tell you how much my watching your videos helped. I just followed steps one through 4 the whole time. Trust and believe saved me a few times during u-turns on the tiny trainer bike but my u-turns were already several feet smaller than the box my very first time. I was able to practice slow starts and stops, slow ride, turns from a stop, and lots of friction zone + rear break control in between exercises and training rounds. Gained a ton of confidence just going through your excercises on top of what the teacher was teaching. Came out of the class with so much validation of what you're teaching, and introduced the teacher to your channel. She's been teaching MSF course every weekend for years so I'm hoping she can help us gather together another group to get you to Dallas-Fort Worth again and not force you to cancel!

Hi Cue I have to tell you I have you now and my TV I was an avid rider since I was 10 years old I’m 68 mentally and Physically great . I stopped riding 30 years ago . My wife of 30 yrs passed away last year . I know therapy is good but riding a motorcycle is better . I bought my first Harley Davidson this year and slow riding a lot but it’s hard to fell comfortably not there yet but getting close and yes everyday is best even if it is for 10 min. So as always love your channel Rob
Went out for my first ride today, a little chilly . I kept hearing " trust and believe! " Followed by " that's what I'm talking about!" Then your intro song for a lot of the ride..... truly, I thank you. Watching your practice sessions has REALLY made me a better rider. I think my group will notice and be impressed by my riding this season.
$30,000 worth of reason's has me second guessing these maneuvers. I wish I was the boss of my 21 street glide!

So grateful for your help, Robert! Saw your channel and subscribed and began watching almost a month ago. Today was my first ride since then. I enjoy riding my '07 FLHR locally in my part of Southern California. But, especially in the last few years I've been riding less and less, and of course that has eroded my confidence and increased my anxiety. But your instruction got me very excited to try and begin practicing the basic POSITIVITY steps and habits that YOU have used to develop your professional career skills. This is already too long and I could go on about a bunch of other things. But I have to tell you that I totally relate to your presentation style and, particularly, how you sometimes broaden the context of your topics by rephrasing one of your principles or concepts immediately, right on the fly. Your genuine care and authenticity shines through. For me, today's short little ride to the dentist and back, with just a little bit of practice time thrown in, was a complete motorcycle game changer! Thank you so much.

Hi Rob. This is the best video you or anyone else has made about slow skill riding. Pretty much every drill after your first 2 is based on this skill: u-turn; and, you just demonstrated every aspect of that skill. I will watch this video 100 times while practicing just as much. I think that if you can do consistent 22-24’ u-turns, you can do all of the other drills.

I've heard you and a few others comment about how the bike stands upright when power is delivered to the rear wheel because "it's a gyroscopic machine" (including in this video). But this doesn't make sense when the bike is barely moving. There is no gyroscopic effect holding the bike up at slow speeds, and yet power to the rear wheel still makes the bike want to get upright even when the bike is barely moving. It's been bugging me because I know the physics of that explanation didn't' make sense but I didn't have an answer, but then I saw this video. It's another trainer out of Russia. Great channel as well once you get used to his accent. The whole video is good, but scroll to the 2:40 mark and he has a great explanation of why the bike stays upright with power at very slow speeds and it's not related to the gyroscopic effect and it makes a lot of sense. The information here is applicable to turning as well. kzitem.info/news/bejne/rJ58q6KgqGmXrWk

The two sessions I did in MD were tons of fun and a blast meeting other preloaders and seeing them improve their skills.

I figured out what the deal is ... with respect to physics... why "head and eyes" turned to the intended point of turn target. True, we can turn tightly without the head and eyes turned... after some time doing it with turning the eyes and head; BUT, that's because, if you pay attention, the goal of turning the head and eyes is not so much turning them, but, what happens to the REST of your body that follows them! When you turn your head and your eyes, notice what happens to your spine. Your spine shifts in the opposite direction. That causes your center of gravity to shift to the side of the bike your spine shifts to. So, the REAL objective is to shift the center of gravity to the opposite side of the bikes turn in order to take advantage of "counter weighting" the bike. That shift contributes to beginning the lean of the bike. I have been trying to proceduralize making a u-turn from the beginning. I have watched and watched and performed and practiced every single night after working out, after work at the nuclear power plant. I am known for having a little OCD with respect to procedures. EVERYTHING we do successfully can be repeated ... by a procedure. Our brains work in sequence, so, our brains already create a checklist of things to do, in precise order, so that we can survive. We never ate the deer before we caught it! So part of the procedure includes the turn of the head, so that the body follows, and the spine shifts, and then the center of gravity shifts, and then the bike begins to lean.

I have seen Jerry Paladino recommending doing some of these maneuvers in 2nd gear rather than first. What do you think about the merits of that? (I ride a Honda ST1300).

On some motorcycles, like the Goldwing, it may give you more control because the throttle is so sensitive.

I'm going to give it a go and see what happens. I just wish we had big empty carparks near London.

One question, have you ever seen the front tire slide out on a motorcycle during low speed maneuvers on a clean dry surface without scraping hard parts ?

Why is it that I'm afraid of fully turning my handle bars? I feel like I'm going to fall or something.Thats why I cant make my u-turns .Is there some kind of practice I can do?

I heard a wise man say - If you’ve been riding for 30 years, you don’t have 30 years of experience. You have one year of experience, and you’ve simply repeated it 29 times.

Robert, had a question for you. On the motorcycle you are using in this video, is it equipped with drop guards? Thinking of getting them for my '16 FLHTK to allow me to practice more without the fear of damaging the bike. Thanks!
