Motorcycle keeps tipping over during basic exercises, help?
Hello, I need help with the basic exercises.. When stopping and going.. It works fine with the left leg, but if I have to do it with the right.. Then the machine pushes to the left when braking and it tips to the left.. so I have to support myself with my left leg.
The same thing happens when braking in an emergency… sometimes it pushes me in the wrong direction…
Does anyone have any tips? The motorcycle doesn't have ABS, and a tip for braking would be ideal. Thanks 🙂
Also, should I slam on the brakes immediately when making an emergency stop? Or should I do it slightly offset and gradually increase the force?
Look. Viewing, BLICKFURING!!!
You drive where you look.
Look far ahead.
At the risk braking start relatively emotionally and slowly, but as soon as you feel the weight shift forward, you can increase faster and stronger. The axial load displacement increases the blocking tendency. You don’t need to have panic in front of a slippery surface, because your instructor doesn’t choose a slippery place from self-containing.
Exercise to get a feeling for the blocking limit:
At about 25 to 30 km/h, the handbrake will open up quickly and quickly like a sponge and SOFORT.
This does not result in axial load displacement because it goes so fast, so the front wheel only blocks a short time completely, and immediately continues to rotate and you do not crash.
The decisive factor for a stable danger braking is, by the way, NOT to support itself on the handlebar. The arms must remain loose from shoulder to wrists. The arm muscle is too weak anyway to effectively support itself – all you can achieve with it are unwanted steering pulses.
Rather, it is supported with the thighs on the tank (knee closure). So press the brake together.
But that should have told you all your driving instructor.
When braking the danger, it is very important that you stretch your arms so that you don’t tilt to the side. At stop-end-go the same… exercise makes the master
So don’t sit in front?
and thanks!
What doesn’t mean sitting in front?
so that it is convenient for you and you have to stretch your arms properly. Otherwise it can happen that you are in a danger brake that hits the motorcycle and you fly over the handlebar
Well, stop as far as you can…
Does the arms have to be completely stretched?
Yes!
You can avoid tipping over to the left by hitting your steering wheel to the left, your moped should fall to the right and you can catch the moped to the right.
In the case of risk braking, it depends on what your proxy wants to see. Some think if the rear wheel is short-bloced you can see that you really tried to stop. Since you have no abs wūrde I do not recommend you completely clean your front brake as you can either slip away or make a frontflip. At the back you can crawl in, at the front you get harder and harder when you get slower.
Try to have the handlebar straight when braking. As has already been said, you can push your arms through. If you have braked and steered with the front wheel brake, the motorcycle falls directly into the steering direction! That’s easy to control when you know if you’re not prepared for it, you’ll fall because you notice it so late.
That was always the case with me at the beginning. Only the motorcycle helps to “slide” the other direction, so to the right.
You better ask that, but your instructor. What does he say? He should teach you. So if you have any questions, don’t be afraid to ask them.
