Speed Turns Directions
Start, facing marker one at a distance sufficient enough to increase speed to
10-15 mph. Just before reaching the end of line "A", reduce speed, using
both brakes. Start at point 1. As you start your turn at point 1, look to the
exit point and gently roll on the throttle throughout the turn.
Practice turning in both directions.
Coaching Tips
- Look through the turn where you want to go.
- Beginning speed of 10-15 mph. Lean with the motorcycle.
