[QUOTE="whenfoxforks-ruled, post: 1353462, member: 73147"] You need to stay away from the race track. +2 for the figure 8 track, an oval will work also. Just switch directions once you get a direction down. Sag and sprung correctly. Good tires@15psi. I would recommend a sandy area to begin. When you are thinking about it, you are taking too long, its gotta feel natural, practice. You should be able to go from wfo 5th gear to full lock up, and stop with in a couple inches every time. You max brake to the max entry speed, simple, practice. Set up for the corner, elbows up, envision your arms as extensions of the forks, and do a push up/push on the outside footpeg at the apex. Plant the bike and power wfo out. You have to see it in your head, and attack the corner. No lolly gagging and looking around, dedication. And, your bike needs to respond off bottom correctly of course. Slipping/fanning the clutch is covering an error, and abusive to the clutch. You should be starting to go wfo into the corner, at the apex you should be half or better, by the time you straighten up you should be wfo and setting for the next corner. I do not know of many 4th gear corners, but you should be able to achieve 3rd for sure. Ride in a circle in each gear to get the feel. Fall a lot, or you are not pushing hard enough. Man up on the front brake. When you believe you have it down, remove the seat and try it. When I go to a new track, I ride as fast as I can with your feet on the pegs. [/QUOTE]
