Not sure I agree with all points in that article, but the hint on carrying a little more speed is right on. Same applies to riding on rocky river beds. But; “Off-road riders hug the fuel tank with their legs to better feel and control the bike.” Not since I was a kid …gripping the tank on a Beta Evo would be like trying to hold a pencil between your knees. and; “use the rear brake only” …maybe on a flat track or speedway bike, I one finger my front brake thx.
Nice bike on your avatar Max, are the mufflers on the other side ?
