So now that I am thinking about tomm's Tony's Track Day
I thought I would throw this out there.
I'm always analyzing my riding. One thing that I have noticed
recently just from riding in the street is that turns feel
much better if I can keep some weight on the front tire until
the apex. So I guess like trail braking. Anyway I find the bike feels more
planted if the weight is biased toward the front or the rear as upon exit.
In the past I would get my braking done, tip in, head toward
the apex then gas it out. I have found that the point from my finishing
the braking and the apex feels disjointed, like I'm coasting with out good feel or traction.
So in contrast to this I have tried sort of slipping the brake off gradually
as I tip in then feed on the gas as the brake tapers off. This seems to make the front tire grab better and the bike weight transfer is better and have the feeling of faster entry speed.
Is this normal? Does most of you all advanced riders do this? Or is my bike setup wrong ? Discuss :
