On Moto Control channel you will find videos about motorcycles, motorcycle riding techniques, tips & tricks and online motorcycle training for beginner and advanced riders!
A little info about me. My name is Andrei Bodrov, originally I'm from Moscow, Russia, and now I live in Buenos Aires, Argentina. Back in Moscow I was a motorcycle instructor and creator of Moto Control Beginner & Advanced motorcycle rider courses, which quickly became the most popular courses in Moscow (well, at least the advanced one😁). My advanced training course makes emphasis on slow speed riding techniques at first (such as good clutch and throttle control, proper riding posture, proper use of vision, etc.), then proceeds to more advanced techniques (such as aggressive braking, trail braking, maximal lean angle). The course incorporates a lot of exercises from DOSAF slow speed riding (similar to police rodeo like motorcycle training in USA), braking and cornering exercises and motogymkhana style riding. And now, since I actively learn English - I decided to post some useful videos for both your and mine practice!😉

Since everyone writes this, it's necessary, I suppose 🤷, so here we go. Disclaimer: Ride at your own risk, you are responsible for your own safety. Me, Andrey Bodrov and my channel, Moto Control disclaim any liability incurred in connection with the use of riding techniques from this channel. Use common sense, wear full protective gear and ride in a safe and predictable manner!

    the reason they are so good is because they can practice dropping the bike as many times as they want...............
  • @rmzxr4395
    Another brilliant lesson no pointless intro and straight to the method. Your motorcycle control skills are insane. 👍🇬🇧
  • @pbourdon231
    I’ve been using this technique for the last few weeks on my morning commute where my 3rd turn of the day is a U-turn on a fairly busy road with 3 lanes of traffic in each direction. This technique keeps things tight, tidy, safe, and quick! Thanks for this tip! Been enjoying your content. Good, sound, technical info here!
  • @tornagawn
    As a cyclist, I remember reading about this in “Richards Bicycle Book” first published in 1972! He called them ‘haul turns’ I think, but the essence is the same, countersteer and lean into the direction of the turn.
  • @matthewkenny4135
    I feel that with advanced maneuvers like this there is a lot of trust in the bike doing the right thing and restraint in not controlling or restricting the bike from doing the right thing.
  • @KF1
    Thank you for not blasting us with a minute of annoying music and getting directly to the video! Great skills, inspiring stuff!
  • You don't say anything about counter leaning… but it appears to be that you and the Japanese rider are leaning AWAY from the turn and letting the bike tilt underneath. This allows for a tighter turn without dropping the bike… and even if you do drop the bike.. it falls under you and not on top of you… am I correct or am I missing something?
  • I learned that technique in motor officer school. They set the patterns up so you had to put the front tire between the last two cones before you initiated the turn, which created the habit of this technique. Good stuff

    Hi Master Moto Control, if not for this teaching, I wouldn't have known u-turns could be done so smoothly, this is the best video around the entire internet, thank you, thank you!
  • @Annon89
    I used to do practice like this. The big thing is clutch control, continuing to move forward, turning your head in direction you are turning toward, and trusting your bike.
  • @prudenciow
    Awesome lesson. Love how well you match the video to the lesson you are teaching.
  • @davidtruong9367
    You are the best of the best; your lessons are great and the way you teach is top-notch. Keep up the great work and thank you for doing so much to help us all be better and safer riders! God Bless 🙏❤️
  • @Sladep123
    Another great video, plus you have a great way of instructing and coaching. Thanks!
  • @wadeblake3451
    Great video as usual. It is truly enlightening how counter steering is so important both at highway speeds and parking lot manoeuvres. Thanks again.
  • Turns out I've been doing that all along.. been riding for quite long. Seeing it so directly demonstrated made me think it's something new that I've to try and learn. But thank you very much all the same ! 😊
  • @maymax0076
    100% gonna practice this one thx a lot your videos are always well explained and very helpful ^^
  • @edwinagaid1667
    What a real, useful, easy-to-understand, and terrific teaching, Master, Idol! 😊
  • @louie5237
    Another awesome video. So glad I came across your channel dude, keep it up! 🤙🏼
  • Nice vid. Letting the handlebars turn themselves cannot be overstressed. This has transformed how I ride my DesertX.
