Japanese U-turn techniques
Interesting video. Might have to watch this one more than once to get it.
Some gets lost in translation, but you can get the idea. |

Awesome, thanks! I learned much of this when I learned to ride a dirt bike. Although, now I'm questioning how much I really do apply to street riding.

Good find, Jay; thanks!
The reason behind the opposite leaning of the body after the steering reaches full lock is that the radius of turn gets smaller as the bike leans more in that condition. The best times are achieved by minimum rolling of the rear tire while going around the cone rather than by high speed.

Crash cages even on the handlebars....
I sense large amounts of fail during the learning process. I'd be very hesitant to do this on anything but a beater bike until I got really good at it. That feeling of the bike falling over is a huge SR trigger. I note also from videos of gymkhana that those who have supersports replace the clip-ons with raised bars. I know first-hand that with the ergos of my supersport, low-speed maneuvering is a real PITA and far more difficult than it was on the Ninjette. It's very hard to throw your body around like that when your hands are far forward and very low.

Just shows that most riding skills can easily be practiced on an empty parking lot.. far less expensive than track time.
