No BS tips from proper good rider, delivered short & sweet without any nonsense. Excellent.

25 years of riding sportsbikes and now 5months of owning a new dr650, think i learned more in that 11minutes than i have in the last 5months. Please keep the tutorials coming your a natural teacher

30+ years on the road and now on adventure bike since April of this year. Taking in all the little tricks i could find. Went on a two day off road class and practicing whenever I can.

"be your ABS", best quote ever

I've read books, attended trainings, watched a lot of vids. This is BY FAR the most condensed and best explained content on ADV riding I've come across. Thanks mate, subscribed!

Your biggest gift is the confidence you invoke in your viewers with your calm demeanor. Not only do you get the knowledge across but you also instill a calm self belief in your viewers that you got this! Bravo!

I watched this video before going out riding in the Backcountry for the first time in my life. I did many of your exercises and it was SO MUCH FUN. Havent had this much fun on a motorcycle in years. Thank you for making it possible

I always enjoy watching your videos Adam! What I appreciate most is that you alternate storytelling with more practical training like this one. Always nicely filmed. Cheers mate :)

Should do a series on adv offroad techniques. Would help so many people like myself who are just getting into it! Can't wait to take what I've learned intimate the dirt this weekend!

I am a newish rider and I found the "tipping the bike, not you" technique was a game changer ... in my urban riding in tight junction corners in the wet. Makes me feel instantly more in control and confident in the bike.

Everyone should learn in the dirt so many times my dirt experience has saved me on the streets

Watched this video randomly, thinking "another click bait" and was I wrong!! This is a 10min masterclass that could easily develop into a half day class provided time allocated for practicing the exercises. Thank you for the great teaching and no-nonsense techniques. It looks so easy like this but definitely requires a lot of practice to get right and becoming a second skin. Immediately subscribed to your channel to see what else you have to share!

Love the concise explanations. 8:54 Technique on how to pop the front would be good to know too. Preload, little burst of throttle, and pop clutch or no clutch?

You're a really great teacher! I'm learning to offroad with my heavy 200kg Scrambler 1200 and just seeing you demonstrate the techniques really increased my confidence to go out and practice properly. I hope you'll post more tips like this in the future!

Great instruction. Super helpful step by step process. Been on my 790R for 2 years, off road a handful of times…and really excited to find some local dirt roads and begin practicing these things! Thanks so much for sharing!

This is brilliant! He makes it so clear and simple. Of course, that doesn't make it easy, but at least easier to understand the fundamentals behind it. Just fantastic!

I really appreciate videos like this. Last year I picked up an 890R so I could get back in the dirt after 20 years of on road only riding. The tips and drills are great, but even more importantly, the confirmation that my instincts are correct is a real confidence booster. Thank you.

Your description of body position during turns is spot on. I see a lot of other videos with different explanations, some of which are just flat out wrong. This is a simple explanation. I'd love to hear more from you about body position. Weighting/unweighting, forward/back, etc. I think one thing that is overlooked or misunderstood by many is the fact that you want to be forward/near the tank in most circumstances.

Love your work Adam. Your videos are great. Very entertaining, informative & they make for compelling watching. Love your mannerisms & approach to everything motorcycling. I'm 63yo, heavily into bikes (one of my bikes is a T7) & I'm learning stuff from watching your videos. Great!! Cheers from a fellow 🇦🇺

Wow absolutely amazing content. Seriously great drills to work on. And I love the energy and chill nature of the way you teach. I’m glad I got randomly fed this video!

This was amazing - more like these please! I was out yesterday for the first time this year (Norway, winter) and I rode over something and the rear bucked up like crazy and threw me around on the bike. Somehow I saved it 🥴

Thanks Adam. You are a really great instructor. Taking show and tell to the next level. Simply told. ❤❤❤

This... this is excellent, I have been needing a video like this for a while now. I have a 2018 Street Scrambler 900, and while it's not the biggest bike to off-road...it's definitely bigger than the usual off-road bikes. This was one of the best how to vids I've seen. No BS, easy techniques anyone can practice on any bike, with a straight Forward down to earth teacher. Thank you

Coming from road an track riding I've gotta say these videos are transformative cant wait to get out and put them to use again :) thanks for taking the time to share the tips and tricks with us all in a no nonsense way superb

Great video Adam! I am going to get my wife to practice these drills to build her confidence on her dual sport. You do a good job of explaining the basics and are better than I am at articulating it to someone else. I grew up riding without formal instruction so everything just feels instinctual and its hard to explain that to someone else a lot of the time.

Fantastic video. You have put into words and video what comes natural to experienced riders and provides clear guidance to newer heavy bike riders!

Some pretty basic things I do all on my dirt bike without thinking. But on my adventure bike it feels like a different animal so I threw all my basics out the window. Really good to watch and listen to someone era talk and explain these. Thank you!

Man i wish i got these lessons years ago! They would've definitely fast tracked my progress! Keep the good content coming!

I'm a mountain biker, but this 10+ minutes instruction short film was exactly that many rider should practise! Very goog footage, keep posting, well done,very usefull!

these videos are a big help for a beginner rider like me! Thank you! Best wishes, TEKKY.

This was brilliant! All of my riding knowledge is on tarmac. Had my Tenere 700 for almost a year and it’s been great. Been trying to use my mountain biking knowledge while riding certain terrains. Great video! Definitely going to practice. Thank you!

I get zoned in and mesmerized by your teaching style. Best I’ve seen.

My biggest question has been, how do you go into a turn and power slide if you will.. and I think you’ve given me the answer. The cone drill but getting comfortable with the rear tire slipping out but maintaining that weight over the bike. It would be cool seeing you take that lesson a step further in a future video and maybe touch on those power slides more. Thank you!

I'm that guy your talking about in the video. 25+years road riding, street and track. Minimal offroad riding, picked up an Africa Twin last year and quickly realised that cornering in the dirt is not the same as riding on the road. This video was great. Would be good to see a series of these. Excellent stuff mate, keep em coming. Can't wait to see the War Horse here too.

Fantastic advice, thanks so much for sharing.

Outstanding and simply and clearly explained. Valuable lesson thank you.

I appreciate your advices Adam. I rode street and dirt bikes for many years, but I was wondering how things actually worked with such a heavy bike as an Adventure! Really cool to learn from a pro! Cheers from Québec!

Watch this, and then watch it again. Adam Riemann has an enormous wealth of riding knowledge (The Aussie version of Brett Tkacs, but with KTM Factory Racing experience) and I hope this transforms into a series of ARienmann1 Masterclasses! Thanks for sharing mate!

It’s cool to watch your very practical videos. I’m 65 and used to race IT 465’s and other bikes and completely enjoy your videos as condescending as they might be to the more experienced riders. I have been riding more that 50years road and dirt. What you demonstrate is spot on and when I watch and relate to my own skills I realise I do this kind of with out thinking. The old saying that you can’t buy experience or you can’t put an old head on young shoulders is absolutely true. I’m not as fast as I used to be but can still keep up with pretty much anyone. I wish you well and keep up the entertaining videos.

Your presentation was by far the best I have seen in years. Thanks for the valuable info and for your excellent delivery.

Good points, even for a rider of 50 years experience. I spent my first 10 years on a 200 pound dirt bike. I had great skills then, and transferred those skills into street bikes. Now I'm back to a 550 pound adventure bike re-learning those skills. I liked the part about turning up into the hill for turning around. I've had to modify my Super Tenere so that it was comfortable to stand up on the bike. It doesn't come that way. The one thing I regret is that it has the 19" front tire. But I've learned how to deal with it; stay out of deep sand. On the dirt roads, I have not had to turn off the ABS. As you say, I let my brain monitor the brakes. I've done some pretty hard stopping on gravel with the ABS on. It is indeed why I bought the bike, that and the traction control. I find them both a useful tool. I'm 68 now, and not as aggressive. But I enjoy the back roads which most of them are nothing more than trails.

Great video, i'd love to see a whole series on this subject. I've been riding a sport bike only for over 10 years and i don't know anything about riding in dirt. I freak out as soon as i see a little patch of sand on a curved road so i always wandered what it's like to ride a dirt bike. Give us all the details ✌🙂

Excellent training video.. Thankyou so much

Your enthusiasm is contagious 👍✌️🇨🇦

What a great video! I will definitely be trying the exercises (minus the hitting the 'twig' during a wheelie ;) ) Are you thinking of making more videos like these? If you are taking suggestions, I think in particular a riding position/hand-position,foot position, how to shift and brake video would complement incredibly well, as having a good stance and grip is vital (maybe even prerequisite) to doing these drills. Also perhaps a video on how to set up the bike for riding offroad (the height of shifter/brake pedal, adjustments to handle bar etc). Kind of like the foundation to build upon. Also of course more advanced stuff like, how to 'pop' the bike as you showed in the video, how to ride specific terrain (ex. deep sand with ruts), where exactly to look etc.

Estou aqui do Brasil assistindo! Parabéns pelo profissionalismo. Sabe muito e tem uma didática muito boa.

What a great instructional video for riders of any skill level. I've ridden off road my entire life and still learned about things I didn't even consciously realize I was doing. Thank you.

Brilliant! Makes complete sense about keeping the bike in traction in turns by keeping the body position upright and leaning the bike. Thank you so much!

Great vid, great tips. I kind of knew all of this through instinct, and years of riding experience, but would find much of this very difficult to actually explain to somebody else.

Great advice. Thanks! I’m fairly new to off road adventure biking, but have been riding mountain bikes for over a decade, and find a lot of the bike handling principles I use riding downhill apply to ADV riding.

Such a great vid! Amazing how much you can learn in 10min with no bs! Thank you 🙌🏻

Like your tips. Very practical & from the heart

"iTs Not ThAt HaRd" dude ,im 5'2, youre atleast 5'9, and i weigh 1/4th the weight of the bike😂

Great video, sir! I'm a passable rider on my T7 and a firm believer in always practicing foundational skills, and these are excellent! New sub, in hopes that you will continue on with these kinds of videos that take us moderate off-road riders on heavy bikes, to a higher level! Cheers!

Excellent tips and great video. Thanks!

Best teacher.

Thanks mate! I really appreciate your videos and learn from you. Every day.

Awesome video - great advice! I recently downsized from my T7 to a CRF450 - your recent videos make me miss the T7!

Mind blowing. Just starting with the ADV style riding - awesome tips! Thanks and take care!

These videos for beginning adventure riders are fantastic! You're a great instructor!! Thanks!

Great instructional film- shared it with my friends who are at the start of their off road journey. People often mock exercises but I love them.

I watched every video I could since I had the T7, never ever have I seen the simple "lock the front" exercice with the front brake. Awesome advice, thanks Man. Very useful.

Always enjoy your videos and continue to learn even after decades of riding. Well done as usual, thank you!

Blooming brilliant, really helpful, love your videos, learned a lot

this is one of the best informational videos I've watched on offroad motorcycling and I've watched a lot

Brilliant video. Really really helpful. Subbed.

Great stuff. Thank you.

Good refresher as Spring is Coming! 🏁🌻

Love your videos. Puts you on the path to better and safer riding quickly. And LOVE the maintenance and set up videos.

Mostly summarizes my pain points riding off road. Very helpful thank you 😊

This video highlighted many shortcomings in my technique and cleared on how to correct them, thanks a ton.

Quite honestly one of the best, straight forward and helpful videos I have seen in quite a while. As a rider who started as young teen on dirt, then went road, then big adventure, I absolutely admit my dirt skills went to rubbish after years of tarmac only. Just as he mentioned-- those road skills you worked SO hard to learn will have your guts on a big bike riding a goat trail. Chapeau. I will add this-- there is more technique in this fellow than he is communicating in the video-- throttle response and body inputs are more advanced and instinctive than your average rider, and he does not mention much of that as he works through these exercises. AND he can flat foot that Tenere. Many riders cannot, diminishing their confidence.

Thanks for sharing. It’s a great no-fluff breakdown of the mechanics for these situations that are precarious when you first start riding off road.

Thank you, excellent points

Thank you professor!

Great video. Thank you. Please don’t let this one be your last. You have such great skill and a wealth of experience ,and you really know how to teach, communicate and share it.

First time I've watched this guy and I must admit his advice and demonstration is top notch and very informative. Excellent tutorial mate and a subscribe from me!

This is the best video I’ve seen around. 10+ years into riding proper motorbikes, I recently switched to a GS and this video makes a lot of sense especially the part about body weight. Bravo!

As a beginner to offroad riding I was having trouble with getting the rear to step out in corners, I get scared and mess it up, but after watching the drill with the cans, I know where to start now, Thanks Adam!

Thank you for sharing your experience. I hope you’ll do more videos like this.

This is one of those videos which you will watch every second of it, no skipping, so much of good and helpful information that too only in 10-11 minutes!! I am going to try and master all of these, and subscribing your channel to learn more!!

I can not overestimate how well made this is. Perfection of a tutorial vídeo.

Thank you. Most of my experience is on the road/tarmac, so I'm exactly the target audience, mostly. I've also spent several years practicing and racing regularly on supermoto bikes (small for miniGP, and still all tarmac) and sportbike-like miniGP bikes (even one I designed and built). I got used to sliding the bike sideways on track. As a result, I've sort of learned some of this already anyway, but it's good to know I'm on the right track and even pickup some drills to help me get better for specifically offroad adventure riding, especially since I just bought a place that has 8 acres that's all wooded with trails. Thanks again!

Man thanks for this brother, getting my first tenere this year and a novice rider!!! Knowing is everything thanks

Some really valuable information given here. Thank you Mr ARiemann for the free lesson.

Thanks for all the great info. As I am going from road to trail I definitely would get caught out on a few of those street traits. Looking forward to using some of these skills and creating some adventures on the drz 👍

Thanks so much! Teaching my kids endurance, as beginners these videos are priceless.

I love this way of explaining. Simple, to the point. Thanks!

straight up the most informative biking channel

best class/teacher/rider/fun ever!! thanks for that!!!

That was the first explanation and drill that has ever clicked for me. Thank you for this video. I rode street for years and now have a R1200GS. Going to go find a place to practice this.

Great video, I'll be saving this so I can practice when it's nice weather again. It's -13F here at the moment. Thank you!

Being a road rider, but plenty of motocross in younger years, this is still fantastic educational video. Quality work!

I've got a KLR here on Vancouver Island. This is so helpful . Thank you.

Thanks for this. Really refreshing to watch skill updates from the GOATs

Great tutorial of basic off road skills. I will back to this material! Thank you!

I can now take on my paved roads in West Virginia with more confidence now! Thank you!

Thank you. You likely prevented or lessened some pain for me, and man you are great at disseminating information.

This is pure gold, thank you!

Loved the front braking technique - never thought of that before. Thx :)
