Difficulty Level

  • Trial and error

    It is never a wise move when you need to slow down mid corner. It shows a lack of planning and vision. Motorcycles have traction control and ABS but you should not rely heavily on technology to get you out of trouble.  Don’t wait until you are mid bend, going too fast, come across a problem and need to brake hard in the bend to stay on the road. Practice this skill once you understand what to do and how to do it.

    Trial and error
