Turning
Turn by pushing on the handlebars in the direction
of the turn. (Push right to go right; left to
go left.) This maneuver will help you in turning
and cornering at higher speeds such as curves
on highways and winding roads, especially when
the curve is tighter than you anticipated.
Ride to the left around the oval indicated by
markers. Adjust your speed and lean angle so that
a small throttle opening is held steady through
markers one, two and three. Reverse direction
and repeat the drill turning to the right.
Tips - Beginning speed of 10-15 mph. Slow down
before the turn. Look through the turn to where
you want to go. Lean with the motorcycle. Hold
a steady speed or roll on the throttle gently
through the turn.
Problems Corrections
Swinging wide of the turn. - Look for the exit
point. Apply more pressure on the handlebar in
the direction of the turn.
Cutting corner too close or turning too sharply.
- Look at the exit point. Do not look down. Apply
less pressure to the inside handlebar.
Exiting wide out of the turn, making the oval
into a circle. - Look where you want to go. Apply
more pressure to the inside handlebar.
