    Re: When in doubt, throttle out!

    It seems so counter intuitive but man it seems to work for just about any situation I have gotten myself into on my dirtbike.

    Hmmmm let me see, my mind is telling me something isn't right and I am likely to crash. That's right grab that throttle hand and twist it on further.

    Nothing better than fighting all of your self preservation instincts and having it work out in your favor.

    I always pussy out, lay off the gas, gently/smoothly brake, straighten out, and come to a complete stop

    luckily I don't ride fast nor hard enough to be in a situation where more gas is the better option over less gas

    now what little, novice dirt riding I do...it's amazing how much smoother things get, and how much easier the terrain is when you're on the gas

    still can't figure it out on this damn rm65 supermoto though...I just keep crashing regardless
