[QUOTE="gxdragon, post: 667534, member: 36662"] I can give you a general answer based on your question, not having seen you ride, not knowing if you are having a specific problem. Take into account I am not an expert. This is what I have learned in my limited experience and from watching a Gary Semics tape. Which by the way he has a tape #7 in a series called "All about cornering". The basics of riding a berm: move up to the tank to get your weight on the front, your leg out towards the front (helping weight the front tire). Your foot should be weighting the outside peg and your knee pressed into the tank help control the direction of the bike. Riding hard flat turns is similar, you want to weight the front tire and the outer peg but you want to move your body to the edge of your seat. So that now that the bike is leaned over you will be sitting on what is now the top of your seat. Learning that made a huge difference for me riding flat hard pack turns. Riding the edge of the seat makes a big difference in traction. Hope this helps and if you decide to try out a Gary Semics tape in my opinion it's well worth it. [/QUOTE]
