How to Stand while Riding Off-Road Motorcycles: Essential Techniques for ADV Riders

In this video, we cover the essential techniques for standing while riding off-road motorcycles. Learn how to improve your bike control, line of sight, and overall riding skills with these expert tips and tricks.

When you're out on the trails or exploring off-road, using a standing riding position can make a world of difference. One of the major benefits of standing is the improvement in bike control and enhanced line of sight.

By standing up on your bike, you unlock a new level of control and agility. The upright stance allows you to distribute your weight more effectively. This enhances your ability to maneuver through tight corners and conquer challenging terrains.

Did you know that approximately 60% of our body weight lies above the hips? When you add the weight of your helmet, protective gear, and a full hydration backpack, you have a significant influence on your ride. By using your knees and hips to guide the motorcycle, you can maintain better balance and control. This helps to reduce fatigue and improve your overall riding experience.

Now, let's talk about foot placement. There is not one "right" way to position your feet on an adventure motorcycle when riding off-road.

However, there is a range of foot placement options available to match different riding scenarios. Factors such as bike setup, foot size, peg choice, and terrain all play a role in determining the optimal foot position for each individual rider.

In this video, we'll discuss:
different techniques and strategies for standing riding posture,
explore the advantages it offers,
and provide practical tips to help you improve your off-road riding skills.

Side Note:
These agility & skills courses/exercises are designed to help develop the fundamental riding skills of clutch, throttle, brake and active balance by the rider.

Precise practice in coordinating these techniques can lead to instinctive/reflexive actions by the rider and allow for more precise control of the motorcycle.

Mastery of these techniques allows the rider to more smoothly transition the bike when cornering as well as being able to react reflexively when encountering unexpected changes in surface traction in off road conditions.

Depending on your skill level, you may want to make the courses larger to feel more comfortable while you develop these skills.

Performing these exercises carries a risk of dropping your motorcycle which may result in damage to you or your motorcycle. Always be sure that your bike has the proper crash guards and that you also wear the appropriate protective gear.
