OK...I have been wanting to ask for a while and just kept forgetting to. When coming into a corner or nice long curve and sometimes an exit on or off ramp, I am looking through it like taught to to get through it and I can see myself riding to close to the inside curve and keep movinf closer to it unless I let off the throttle or not lean in to it as much.

What am I doing wrong or what do I need to do to correct this????

Sounds like yuo aren't going fast enough! Its either lean less, or throttle more! You know you've got the lean there, so just give it some maintenenace throttle to hold your line better.

Thanks...I was thinking if I did that i would go off the road on the inside faster. LOL

ive had that problem too..when ur learning how to navigate curves, especially nice sweeping ones, you tend to let off the gas and just coast for fear of either lowsiding, or going off the side of the road or into the other lane. I've got myself doing it too... but I've found if I lean like im supposed to go, and give nice even throttle it works alot better.

You guys need to read" Twist of the wrist 2". You are experencing a major riding flaw that this book can help you with. I have it on DVD as well :dthumb:

although in reading my post, I should have said, nice even acceleartion, instead of throttle...is that more correct ?

I've got the first and second book, but have yet to have time to get through either. What I have read was really enlightening, esp in relation to "spending your dollar". The technical backup of his philosophies are cool.

Sure wish I'd known about the DVD earlier though!

The DVD is pretty good. It is a copy of the VHS. Also RoadRacing World(The only american mag I read) Has tons of hints and stuff in their mags every month. It is worth the 15 bucks a year.
