Hey man, thanks I appreciate it. Please reach out if you have questions, some of those earlier ones might be a little sloppy.

Thanks for the video, Quinn. Really helpful at low speed, no influence on the handle bars. And very true about the horizon line

Great lesson, and another great reason not to skip leg day!

Wow! Thanks for the explanation of this technique. I have used it brakeless and it works, struggling to use it dragging rear brake on the Harley …….probably a coordination thing💁

Are you weighting the inside peg or trying to remove weight off the inside peg?

@NoVaSlowSpeed Жыл бұрын

Thanks, Quinn great video sir I will try this out next time I get a warm enough day. One question is how often have you ever slipped off a peg while doing this? The only thing concerning to me is slipping off the peg and being that all my weight is on that foot planting it firmly on the ground and catching a calf full of saddlebag could get ugly. What are your thoughts about that?

Well never actually, but NOW that I said that I'll probably lose a foot in the middle of my next motor competition!

Quinn! Thanks for all of your content, sharing of knowledge and experience! Awesome! This may be off topic. However, I was hoping you could provide some guidance. I'm trying to decide between a Concours 14 and an RT. It's a 2019 C14 with 2,400K miles on it for $12500, and a 2020 RT with 3,500 miles for $19K - eek! Of course, there different types of sport tourers, engine configuration wise :) I've been a 4 cylinder sport bike rider for the last 25 yrs. Currently on a 09 CBR1000RR . Which would you recommend? I'm pretty sure the RT probably handles better because of the lower center of gravity. But how far off (ease of handling) would the C14 be? Is it by a lot or a little? I've quickly test ridden both, but somewhat hard to tell. The thing that stands out in my mind is the tractor like sound of the boxer...I'm assuming I'd get used to it. Any advice and thoughts you could provide would greatly be appreciated! I like the looks of the RT, but prefer the price of the C14! lol Oh yea! How do you like the new RT model (1250) vs the 1200? How noticeable is it, power wise?

Well really apples to oranges, Id say if you are used to Japanese brands, the BMW can feel odd initially, but they are both great bikes. I worked traffic and competition on the Kawi and while she was a big wide girl, she was fast, stable, and comfortable. My father in law had a C14 as well and I have many miles in the saddle with that bike; would not hesitate to own one. The BMW has more creature comforts, electronic suspension is amazing, its light on its feet, good power if not as much as the Kawi, can ride all day in the saddle without issue...The front suspension system (Teli Lever) is odd if you are not familiar with it-designed to limit front end dive under braking, but can make the front feel vague and un planted. All that said, the new 1250 BMW is really an amazing bike that you will love on all levels. Much better/faster/smoother than 1200 IMHO (I DO love the dry clutch 1200's!) Is the 1250 BMW $6500 better? If you are a BMW guy, then hell yes. If not, and you want the best bang for the buck? Not in my opinion.

@@PoliceMotorTraining Thanks so much for the reply, Quinn! btw - What is your experience with BMW reliability? Do BMWs tend to have more issues or are more finicky? I tend to find reviews from others complaining about recalls, overall reliability and other possibly temperamental issues. Also. On the video / drone stuff. It would be nicer to see you up close when you're speaking vs far away taken from the drone. From a viewer's perspective at times, it feels somewhat too distant. Just a friendly viewer tip. :) Love your content! Thanks for taking all the time putting it together and passing your knowledge along.

@@joev9224 Thanks for the input on drone view VS up close. I'll think on that and see about getting more up-close footage. As for BMW reliability, let me just say i've abused the hell out of R1100RT-p's, r1150's, R1200's, and R1250's, I've personally owned an R12R, an R12S, and an R12RT> I bought those personal bikes because I was sold on reliability after years of hammering on these bikes. I'm a fan, I'm sold on the durability for sure. Honestly I would NOT be the BMW Authority Ambassador if I didn't love the brand... Recalls? Sure I imagine so, but I've had recalls with Suzuki, a Lemon Law buy-back from Yamaha, warranty issues with Honda's, on and on. Buy what you want, accept the fact that its a machine and thus stuff will happen.

@@joev9224 I currently own/ride the 2022 RT and have also been the proud owner of a 2012 C14. After riding both I can tell you I prefer the RT over the Connie. The Connie is FAST, but the RT is more comfortable, has more tech (I like tech), and is balanced much better so slow-speed maneuvering on the RT is easier than on the Connie IMHO, and the bike seems to be very reliable. I have 12k miles on my RT after 9 months of ownership and they have been amazing miles! In fact, I just had my valve service done and the valves were good, no adjustment needed, and I tend to ride a bit "spirited" so I'm not babying my RT by any means! Tries on the RT last about 6k, as they did with the Connie. The RT is an amazing bike and that is coming from someone who was against BMW for a long time, thought they were overrated...I was wrong, very wrong.

what drone/controller do you use?

@PoliceMotorTraining Жыл бұрын

Hi- I use a Skydio 2 drone, it tracks the beacon that comes with it and my cell phone while I ride. I have a manual controlling unit but I never use it due to having it track me. Its a very nice sport-related drone
