If you're usually a road rider, then this is for you. Riding on the road is a completely different game, and for your safety and overall experience, it pays to assess your habits and instincts when riding on rougher terrain compared to the road. The most common adjustments are:

When cornering, push the off road motorbike down to the side, keeping your body as upright as possible, with your center of gravity moving forward over the fuel tank. This is to make the most of the tire tread and terrain working together for ultimate traction. The more these two things work together, the more control you'll have.

Speed up in slippery or tricky areas like slits and sand. Unlike road riding, where you do the opposite (such as slow down an oil spill), you want to speed up to get through these areas as safely as possible. This will avoid getting stuck in dense sand or turning. Tire traction and terrain do not work the same as neatly laid asphalt, and if you try to slow down, it will have the opposite effect.

See where you're going, not what you want to avoid – keep your eyes open! Although the same goes for road riding, your obstacles are not as obvious and predictable. You have to be more sensitive to where you want to go, because sometimes that gets around a tree...

Leaning forward as far as possible when climbing hills and pulling your body weight back as much as possible on steep descents. This will help control the bike and again keep the tires on the terrain for better control. Remember, putting your foot on a nail is key!
