Great info. Always look where you want to go. Having experimented with target fixation and scaring myself nearly to death or dismemberment I really appreciate having videos like this for newer and older riders having difficulty on the road. As the video says............turn your head, not your eyes. Always look ahead, not where the front wheel is.

This is repeated over and over to new riders but it doesn't always stick. Once you guys start riding with your focus up the road, the experience of motorbiking starts to really unfold.
