When I got my motorcycle license about 10 years ago I wanted to take a motorcycle safety course. My dad who had a motorcycle years ago but hadn't ridden over a decade thought it would be a fun father/son thing. He didn't really expect to learn anything new (stubborn old 74 year old man who had ridden for years etc.. lol) At the end of the weekend he was surprised at how much he had learned and how much confidence he acquired.

@quikboarder93 4 года назад

Dan, I just want to thank you for your dedication to making so much content. I just started riding last month and despite having increased awareness from driving for 10 years, snowboarding for 18, years of experience mountain biking, dirt biking when I was younger, and skateboarding, there are still many things I wouldn’t have thought about had I not come across your videos. Even the MSF course is NOT enough in my opinion! Today on my way home, I turned onto my street and let my guard down for just a split second only to see a car backing out in front of me. I think the reason I didn’t see them was because they saw me, stopped before I finished turning, and the back end was sticking out almost exactly as much as a car parallel parked would be so it blended in. Long story short, since they saw me and the car was stopped, I don’t believe I was ever really in any danger in this particular situation, but my first instinct was still to swerve because I PRACTICED my emergency maneuvers A LOT! It is soooo important to just have it be second nature. Had the driver not been paying attention, there’s still a really good chance I would have been okay. It was bitter sweet because I should have been tuned in to potential hazards on the street right away after turning, but it was also cool to just experience my instincts kicking in and almost feeling like I just watched my bike and body just do its thing without any effort from my part. The hardest part of motorcycling to me so far is teaching myself not to take a breather just because I executed a turn safely or got through an intersection unscathed. There are always more hazards ahead to come and there’s never a right time to let your guard down at all.

This is the maneuver that tripped me up in my course and caused me to fail. I don’t think I was understanding what my instructor was trying to tell me at the time but this really helped me understand. I’m definitely going to use this video to help me practice on my bike before I take my class again. Thank you for these videos they make learning how to ride a little less daunting.

@ManualFocusJunkie 4 года назад

Hey Dan. Been watching for a while. I'm just learning to ride for the first time. Thank you for all the great videos and telling us all to put on our gear even for low speed practice. I laid my bike down at slow speed yesterday and jammed up my thumb, but I had on my gloves and everything. I can bet it would have been worse without it 👍

@Tirfing88 3 года назад

the more i see these excercises the more i realize I used to do all of these when riding my bycicle at 12-13 years old, even the countersteering when I was going fast on my bike. It's kind of beautiful, nobody ever told me (or us) all of these techniques or the physics involved in them, but it came naturally and subconciously when you learn how to ride a bike, it's like the bike becomes an extension of your body, you assume a second form, like a transformer lol, when you hop in on the bike. I'm 33 now and it's been ages since I rode a bike, but now that I purchased my first motorcycle, I hope those skills are still somewhere in my brain ready to be used again in an automatic, subconscious way

@MrCats2305 3 года назад

Hey Dan, loving your channel. Really educational. I live in the Netherlands, and over here we have a three step progress before we are allowed to ride anything above 50cc. The first practical part is exactly this. Before we ever ride in traffic we must learn, and pass an exam, to handle the bike. Braking, tight turning, swerving, usually about 10-15 hours of practice time with an instructor. I really think these cources should be mandatory in more parts of the world. Could really save a lot of lives.

@Turco949 4 года назад

It is indeed a very nice looking bike. That said, Victory and Indian motorcycles are made by Polaris. I'd caution you on buying one as they are not the most reliable bikes and their warranty service reputation is not that great. I know of a few new Indian owners and they took their bikes in for warranty service quite a few times in the bikes first few years even. Much like a car model, when a manufacturer comes up with a brand new model, I'd suggest you wait a few years before buying that particular vehicle so if there were any major issues, they get worked out.

@PeterVred 4 года назад

I watched this, then went to our HS parking lot and started in. It all went very smooth, did 4 left and four rights, very tight too. I thought “this is so easy”! Went to do a few more, started with a left turn, turned bars to left, looked left, pushed down ever so slightly, counter balancing, and the bike went down before I could start slipping the clutch! Oh my, I was a alone with my Africa Twin on the ground, with no crash bars to give it a little lift off the ground. It’s heavy, I’m old, but I didn’t panic, I’d watched videos on how to get it up, but bike was so flat and the ground so smooth, I wasn’t able to back-walk it up. A concerned citizen then pulled up and we got it upright no problem. Only thing hurt was my ego, only damage was the hand guard and my clutch lever. I still don’t quite know what step I left out that one time. I had been doing lots of (MCrider lesson) stops, u-turns, and figure eights up to this time without a hitch. I wonder why I dumped on the simple turn. Should have had a cam, right? Would have been solved. But I’m going to have to put lessons off until I can get some lower crash bars to give the bike enough lift to get under it. I have to say it shook my confidence too. I’m going to have to have a spotter with me.

Great video thanks! I've been riding legally now for 52 years and in that time, have had many different bikes. Slow speed stuff on an old BMW horizontally opposed twin (1978 RS100S) was soooo easy! A Honda 1100 V4? My last Buell? 🤯. Others varied... Your videos will hopefully save many elbows, egos and handlebar levers. I learn something, (or remember!) with every one I watch. Thanks. Anyone can learn how to "control" a bike from a friend or even a book, but learning to "ride" requires a different skill set. You really help with that. Thanks for sharing!
