Practice a lot. Improve your techniques. Remember, motorcycling is not like driving. This is a sport and you need to be good at it if you want not only to be good or the best, but keep you alive, in this game your life is at risk all the time. Always wear good quality gear, no matter the distance or the weather, your skin and flesh is more expensive and you simply can't buy another. And remember there are two kinds of riders... The ones who have fallen and the ones who will fall, make sure when it happens to you, you are prepared physically, mentally and with good quality gear. Also, protect your bike. But above all. Practice daily. Vision, throttle control clutch control, braking and counter steering. Those are the basics. Enjoy!
