YCRS Ride-Better Videos Now On YouTube + Video
The Yamaha Champions Riding School has helped countless riders, myself included, improve their skills to become both faster and safer. Whether you’re a street rider or track junky, novice or pro, as rider we should always be looking to improve. While attending the Yamaha Champions Riding School at its new location at New Jersey Motorsports Park would be ideal, for those of you who can’t make the trek, YCRS has an entire YouTube channel dedicated to making everyone better riders.
Its regularly scheduled episodes, entitled “Inside Insights” are hosted by lead instructors Nick Ienatsch and Ken Hill, and cover a wide range of topics. The two talk about everything from apexes to body positioning in bite-size pieces you can digest and think about the next time you go for a ride.
“These short videos were a ton of fun to shoot,” says YCRS’s Nick Ienatsch. “Ken Hill and I picked about a dozen topics and tried to have a little fun while explaining some concepts that will really help riders. A lot of people want to attend YCRS and we hope these pieces help get them thinking like a Champion.”
Visit the YCRS YouTube channel to see all 17 (and counting) episodes of Inside Insight.
Troy's been riding motorcycles and writing about them since 2006, getting his start at Rider Magazine. From there, he moved to Sport Rider Magazine before finally landing at Motorcycle.com in 2011. A lifelong gearhead who didn't fully immerse himself in motorcycles until his teenage years, Troy's interests have always been in technology, performance, and going fast. Naturally, racing was the perfect avenue to combine all three. Troy has been racing nearly as long as he's been riding and has competed at the AMA national level. He's also won multiple club races throughout the country, culminating in a Utah Sport Bike Association championship in 2011. He has been invited as a guest instructor for the Yamaha Champions Riding School, and when he's not out riding, he's either wrenching on bikes or watching MotoGP.
