Engine Breaking or Trail Breaking..?

My appologies guys, for my grammer that is... Mean Braking.

what I was simply saying is that I ride hard and am fast through turns with very little braking...I DONT ENTER CORNERS STILL BRAKING, BY THE TIME I'M AT MY ENTRY POINT READY TO LEAN IN, IM ALREADY ON THE THROTTLE. 90% FOR THE TIME IM ON THE TROTTLE THROUGH THE WHOLE TURN...UNLESS I MISCALCULATE AND COME IN TOO HOT.

Not trying to sound like im bragging but this works for me and im very good with it...when we do a ride out im usually leading tha pack...just for that reason. im fast through corners

Guys are me how come they dont see my break light, well...thats my technique.

Guys, there's no absolute right way to do any of this, but there's definately many wrong ways...we can pin point bad habbits with even GP guys, but it works for them

all you guys have good point tho and i'll continue to strive to improve but it's hard to change what you're doing when you're already in front right? ;)

Not trying to offend, just offering some friendly advice:

If you're already on the throttle at turn in you're entering too slow. You're trying to turn the bike and at the same time adding throttle which shifts the weight to the rear and extends the front forks which makes it harder to turn (geometry all wrong). In fact, you're also asking for trouble when adding lean angle and throttle at the same time, keep this up and a high side is in your future. You may be fast and have skill but you could be a lot faster with proper technique and training.
 
If you haven't already, pick up Nick Ienatsch's book "Sportbike Riding Techniques". It will give you a good primer about how to do things and why. True, different people have different "styles", however, the successful ones all do the basics the same way. Food for thought...
 
Aside from all the ........!

If you aren't backing it in, you generally trail brake with the front. As for engine braking, hell yes! That's one reason I love twins. I blip coming hard into corners, and when I'm just about to turn in, I initiate the trail braking and accelerate hard once I'm about 3/4 through if that. I believe in a greater exit speed.

BTW read that book, it's actually signed!!!

This is not a challenge to your techniques, this is a question on this technique.

I've always used the 'blip' technique (match the RPM with the downshift so not to lock up the rear) with all my other bikes. I've never had traction control or a slipper clutch, so with the two installed on the 1199 is the 'blip' technique required any longer? Thoughts?

It still is, and it's better on the engine. If I don't blip on the RC8R, with slipper, it still hops. The higher RPMs give you more braking AND stronger drive out.
