yesterday @ 2 am i watched twist of the wrist 2 its helped my understanding so much im getting ~ALL of my bikeing friends and family to watch it its full of really great and simple examples and has helped me understand that my cornering problem was mostly uneven throttle control
i was breaking then counter steer turn bike back upright throttle away .....but by gently easing power on all the way through the corner the bike corners more stable ....i honestly hadnt thought of that i thought that the weight would shift unloading the front end reducing grip

but i used what i understood today and im cornering faster and more importantly safer it feels like the bike is more planted and has more grip but its just how im balancing the weight Smile

to all new or inexperienced riders im saying i think its well worth watching Smile i understood more in that 96 min dvd than in 6 hours of "lessons"

all the best lads Fife

I have the Twist Of The Wrist book, and found it to be quite informative and very helpful.

Also similarly cheesy, I can recommend James Whithams Superbike School as a source of inspiration for newbies.

There are scenes of homoeroticism.

FFWD to the bit where the sweaty bloke on the Pan is in the layby on his phone. His gimps arrive, saying they know the secret to 'throttle control' (That's Gay talk for a hand-job).
The camera zooms in on a hand suggestively rotating the twistgrip. Camera then cuts to the gimp with the shaven head as he slowly nods.

Pure filth, and appears worse after repeated viewings.
