finish all of your braking and downshifting (any slowing down) before you begin the turn. once you are done slowing down, the clutch should be fully disengaged.

I think what Alex meant to say was that once you are done slowing down and in the gear you intend to use for the corner, drive through the corner under moderate power. The idea is to keep the load on the tires balanced front to rear. You want to avoid upsetting the balance of the bike with it leanedover. Make sense? And yes do an msf course asap.


i suggest you take the msf course.
