The arguments about weight transfer to the front causing loss of traction only applies if you don't have good throttle control, which the technique assumes you have figured out. Tached posted up a technique everybody on this board should know. If you don't, you should learn it. |
I read and have applied the techniques from twist of the wrist, and I find they work for me. A constant or increasing throttle through the turn will keep the suspension compressed, allowing it to keep the bike on a tight arc. Letting off the throttle, even in small amounts, allows the suspension to decompress, making the bike run a wider arc through the turn.
