Exercise 6B - Sharp Turns From a Stop
Practicing this exercise properly will help you make sharp turns from a stop such as exiting a parking lot or turning into
a narrow street.
Directions
Start at “Begin Turning” markers with the motorcycle straight. Turn the handlebars, lean the motorcycle slightly in the
direction you are turning, and turn your head to look through the intended path of travel. Use controlled clutch release
and throttle as you make the sharp turn. Finish your turn as close to line “A” as you can without touching it.
Coaching Tips
1. Keep head and eyes up; look through the turn.
2. Turn the handlebars and lean the motorcycle in the direction of the turn.
3. Use smooth clutch release and throttle as you exit.
Common Problems
1. Turning too short or too long.
2. Motorcycle stalls or begins to fall into the turn.
Basic Corrections
1. Keep head and eyes up and look through the turn.
2. Concentrate on maintaining steady speed or slight acceleration and smooth clutch release. Look through the
turn.
Exercise 7 - Obstacle Swerve
Practicing this exercise will help you swerve to avoid a potential hazard.
Directions
With about 100-foot lead-in, approach the first pair of markers. As you reach the markers you should be going 10-15
mph. As your front tire passes the first pair of markers, make a swerve (right or left) avoiding the imaginary barrier or
obstacle. Make sure you’ve decided on which direction you intend to go before starting the exercise. Do not stop or
apply brakes while performing the swerve.
Coaching Tips
1. To swerve right, press right until you have cleared the markers, then press left to resume straight ahead.
2. Keep head and eyes up and knees in against the tank.
3. Press on the handlebar in the direction you want to go. (Press right to go right; press left to left.)
4. Do not brake and swerve at the same time.
Common Problem
1. Unable to properly complete the swerve.
Basic Correction
1. Keep a steady speed. Maintain pressure on the handlebar until you have cleared the marker, then press on
opposite handgrip to straighten into the new path.
