After spending a significant amount of money upgrading and modifying my bike over the past year, this one $200 investment made a bigger difference than all of it: Taking the Intermediate riding course at Motorclyde Training Center in Batangas.

Thanks for watching! Hope more of us will be convinced to take our skills seriously, because more skilled riders will make rides safer for everyone.

Glad found some vlogger in PH who rides Royal Enfield :) specifically the Int 650.

You really nailed a common cop out that not only motorcyclists have but people in every skilled endeavor - the resorting to focusing on the gear instead of the user of said gear. Many guitarists are seriously guilty of doing that. They will spend all of their time upgrading pedals, amplifiers, strings, instruments, etc and it's about 90% because they are afraid of doing the (they think) hard work of just becoming more skilled. All it takes, in many instances, is just slowing down and being honest with yourself about what you can do and then what you want and need to be able to do. Doing it really is the largest part of doing anything lol. Love the video, very well made, great presentation. Thanks!

Thanks for watching and for this insightful comment. And I understand you perfectly, because I used to practice guitar a lot! And one thing that held me back, as also happens with motorcyclists? Ego. Hah. Thinking I was good enough not to have to slow down and get it right. I couldn't admit to myself I needed to go (very) slow to eventually go fast.

you are correct there boss. I just had a lot of semplangs recently and that made me realize that I really need to invest on learning skills .... it is not enough to have some passion in riding when you don't have the necessary skills

@LawrenceBroussard 11 месяцев назад

The best thing I did was take a Harley Davidson Motorcycle safety course. I really learned a lot in a few days. My riding greatly improved. Thanks for sharing valuable knowledge.

Very nice advice 😊

@insatiable_mind Год назад

Other than safety gear training is the best money spent on any bike

@Ride_XP Год назад

Amen to that

@enricopunsalang6683 Год назад

Congratulations, bro! I’m super amazed at how much you’ve learned in such a small amount of time. Great job dude!

@Ride_XP Год назад

Thanks mucho for the support man!! Can’t wait to practice and ride more ☺️ Talisay run this week? Hehe

@motolifejd7329 Год назад

Agree on investing on your skills. I personally don't ride a bigbike, I just ride my scooter (Honda ADV150) going thru our national service roads from Laguna to BGC. And to be honest, doesn't matter if you're riding a 110cc or even a 350cc or even a 700cc (yes, it's weird but I do see a few of them), when it comes to philippine national roads, your best safety feature is your discipline and skill. My bike has single channel ABS as it's only safety feature and in my more than a year riding to work at night, I never had an instance where I got to activate it. So yes, combining skills with discipline is our best chance for riding safely.

@Ride_XP Год назад

Agree! It’s always better too to have good technique than rely on the riding aids. The latter will just make you even better/safer.

well said!

Try hugging the tank with your legs it does wonders controlling the bike

@goncalosantos8369 Год назад

What's the helmet you were using? and nice video btw riding skills surely come in handy.

@Ride_XP Год назад

Thanks! That's an LS2 Valiant II modular helmet, a great versatile commuter for me.

Salamat!!

Nice bike bro! Planning on getting one as well. Int650. Do you think itll be an ok daily bike here in the metro? Im about 5'9"/5'10" and will be riding it for less than 15km daily. 2nd option would be a rebel500. Thoughts?

@Ride_XP Год назад

Thanks bro! Based on the experience of my 5'9" girlfriend, the Rebel 500 might be too cramped for you. It's a very low, skinny bike, but that also makes it very easy to ride. INT650 is on the heavy side for a commuter bike but you'll love riding it, nicer character than the Rebel (and much easier availability). It's easy to maneuver in traffic, but once it slows down it requires some practice to manage the weight. Rite of passage sa 650s ibagsak siya hahaha. If you don't need to park in small bike parking the 650 is a great choice.

@juatcher Год назад

@@Ride_XP yeah, thats one of my concerns with rebel, might feel small. What more if youd have a pillion. Yes, Have read that the int650 will be smooth, wont feel as heavy when moving and that itll only be a problem doing slow speed maneuvers. Ive seen a lot complain about the peg location. This in addition to the weight seems like itll really be hard to use the bike in tight spaces or getting in and out of parking spots no? Do you behave like a car here in the metro or do you also filter with the low cc bikes?

@Ride_XP Год назад

@@juatcher I don't have a problem actually with the peg location though I used to; after off-road lessons my feet naturally land forward of the pegs now. It's a more balanced way to stand on the bike as well. For me the problem with parking is actually that the bike leans over a lot on the side stand, so you need a lot of allowance, especially if you're not used to putting it on the center stand or balancing it without the side stand. At this point, because of practice and saddle time, I'm able to mostly filter with the small bikes actually, even with my extra wide Himalayan handlebars. And I take advantage of the extra power to pull away on open stretches. Heat isn't a problem either!

@juatcher Год назад

@@Ride_XP appreciate these inputs bro! Really helps those who are thinking of getting one. So i take it you havent had any major problems with the bike? No issues and all that.

@Ride_XP Год назад

None at all! Generally the 650s are super reliable. Most people just need to degrease the contacts (they put too much in the factory). And then I sometimes get false neutrals. That's about it. All others problems I've had with the bike were the result of my own messing around with it hahaha

@Prem-vs9ne Год назад

Aaron i'm finally back in home country india i'm in Goa and finally I got my royal enfield himalayan just ridden 260kms I need to complete 500kms within 45 days for first service 😊

@Ride_XP Год назад

Hey man! Good to know!! Enjoy ☺️

@Prem-vs9ne Год назад

Oh yeah i'm not used to breaking and gears system olden days it was just opposite

@robertroque77 Год назад

Is this better than the Honda riding lessons?

@Ride_XP Год назад

I think Honda may still be the ideal place to start from zero since they use light bikes there. But once you have some experience this will have such an impact. They do offer learn to ride courses as well though.
