Using your controls to your advantage starts with the rider's attitude before the ride/session.

Many just use enough inputs to get the job at hand done. Many riders are actually quite lazy at the exit of the turn, while another set of riders are busy at the exit trying to get their speed back from being lazy on entry, and others, are lazy at both ends. Where are you lazy? And... are you lazy all the time or just some of the time?

The other big thing about controls are the timing of those inputs. Timing is very subtle, so I will guide this one a bit more. Some riders say "slow hands make a happy bike". What controls would you be faster on than others?
