Change of tyre manufacturer, more cornering confidence?
#14
I'm no instructor but I know this method works.

Find a reasonably quiet road with all types of corners and ride up and down at a steady pace to get comfortable. Now try riding the same road at similar pace without using your brakes (unless you have to) using gears and throttle control to adjust your speed, increase your speed on corner entry as you feel more comfortable. Then start upping your straight line speed and use gentle breaking to slow down, if you get one of those panic moments just go back to roll on roll off for a couple of corners then start with the brakes again.

Most of the time poor mid corner speed and that Oh shit feeling is due to over braking and or braking to late when turning in is difficult due to the physical force induced by breaking to late




Complete fabrication, I didn't make it up!
