Motocross noob hits the track on a DR650?!︱Cross Training Enduro

http://www.crosstrainingenduro.com http://tractionerag.ca A Suzuki DR650 on a motocross track. In the hands of a dirt rider who has never actually done motocross. Hmmm. Flash back to 2016. The suspension gurus at FFRC have worked their magic as reported in a Suzuki DR650 review and they decide to test it at the local motocross track on a 50 foot table top jump. Two of their motocross riders said the transformation was incredible and they wanted to get my opinion too as a motocross noob. Gulp. So it s time for some muppet motocross. Now I have never ridden motocross. The past few years I ve only been riding trials and slow technical enduro stuff. Want to learn how to ride dirt bikes with our 100 free enduro training videos?

So learn how to ride enduro bikes our vids range from basics for the beginner dirt rider to advanced hard enduro racing. The guys put me on the beginners track but even here I am struggling with the Suzuki DR650. Most of the simple jumps I am coming up short and landing with a thud. I can t see this ending well. Lets go for a lap. Shit someone takes my photo and I can t even clear this easy jump as per Suzuki DR650 reviews. Talk about being a fish out of water. I have almost zero experience with motocross jumps, berms and woops. But all is not lost. At least I don t completely suck on the corners. The increase of extreme enduro, endurocross and hard enduro events leads to cross training enduro - trials skills adapted to dirt riding on enduro bikes. Almost all of the best extreme riders are former trials champions. Balance in your dirt bike riding also means you can spend more time standing on the pegs in tough terrain instead of sitting down, so you will have far more control. Lean the bike, inside foot near the front axle, one butt cheek off the seat. Even with the road legal tyres I am getting the DR650 around corners without looking like a total noob. Later on I try the faster motocross track but I simply don t have the balls to get enough speed and clear the jumps properly.

Supporters might remember one of our guys, Aaron, did a motocross week session and picked up a lot of speed with his enduro riding after that point.

It s like poetry in motion - from a standing start they can flip their bikes in mid air through 180 degrees, or climb a six foot vertical wall... no dirt bike fails for these guys so get into our enduro training videos. A key is the use of body positioning and weighting - choose when to exert pressure on the pegs and when to de-weight or lift the bike up. Most trials techniques involve exact use of the clutch e.g. feathering the clutch for traction control up hills... dropping the clutch to launch the bike into the air as Jonny Walker and Graham Jarvis can do on extreme enduro racing bikes and trials bikes.
