The speaker emphasizes that a smooth, responsive throttle is essential for precision in sports like supercross and extreme off-road riding to prevent wheel slip and ensure optimal performance.
Welcome back guys, today I'm going to show you a few tricks with the controls of your
bike and more importantly the throttle.
A lot of people don't realise how crucial the action of your throttle is to getting
perfect traction and getting power to the ground when you absolutely need it.
It's really critical in sports like supercross when you're trying to gauge triples, but even
more so in extreme off-road, that point between traction and the rear wheel slipping can a
lot of the time come down to how well your throttle operates.
You don't want to be fighting against a throttle that's sticky, notchy or causing a delay in
delivering the power when you absolutely need it.
