Still valid after all these years 🙂 thanks!

How can you even argue with this dude...? Awesome tips!

Thanks Chris, I hope you will give us more of these good riding instructions; thumbs up !!

Amazing Trainer

Let's face it it probably helps being 6`5

It reminds me alot of riding a mountain sled.

Great tips and absolutely love Chris' vids his riding tips. However, I have a 1290 SA-R and it's an awfully tall & heavy bike for most to try and mount with the kickstand up. I am 6'6" and 235 lbs and tried this in my garage and it's much harder than it looks. He's done it a kizillion times, has very strong legs and core and is much more flexible than most. You can see his flexibility in the way that he so effortlessly swings his leg over the bike. Not sure how tall he is, but am certain I'm taller and I can't even get my leg over the bike that easily. When mounting with kickstand up, all it takes is for your leg to not so gracefully make it over the seat for a drop to occur. Just my 2 cents.

Do you prefer the 1190R or the 1290R for pure off road?

If you have to tell someone how to get on a bike they probably shouldn't be riding a 1000cc motorcycle.

If you’re a jockey it’ll come easy
