I'm 59 Yr old lady and having first lesson soon,thanks for this video very helpful

No joke riding a motorcycle is way harder than I expected. I dropped my bike once in the MSF course and almost did a bunch of other times haha

Totally agree with this.. I went out on my bike and stalled it twice on a busy junction. If I had practiced that probably wouldn’t have happened. Now I always go to a car park and practice for 5 mins before any journey.

Thanks for continuing this series! Hopefully we will receive more encouraging videos like these from you!

Great tip on practicing intersections at a busy carpark!

Thank you for these videos

I love these videos perfect advice from the best in the business ❤ keep posting petro 👍🏆

this helped a lot! i watched pt 1 thanks you're such a kind human💙

These were helpful, thanks! Can’t wait to take my safety course

This video is so helpful! I passed my CBT (barely) little over a month ago, but by the time i got my bike i was off on holiday for 3 weeks! I've been hella nervous but the calming way you discribe everything in detail makes me excited to go home and finally get to practice on my bike!

Thanks, your style is so positiv and is encouraging. Keep it up!

I'm planning to go for my Bike Licence soon and your videos for beginners really breaks it down really well. I'll definitely be using your tips to learn.

I’ve been driving since I was 13 years old with my dad but now that I’m almost 23 I was thinking of gifting myself a bike. I’ve always been into cars and bikes so maaaan that’s gonna be one hell of a gift 😍, but I’ve been trying to obtain so SO many tips and information that my head already hurts 😭 nonetheless this video was extremely helpful I can’t stress it enough. Thank you so much !!!

Great job of teaching 👍

i just realized where you were... SAN DIEGOOOOOOO

These videos are very helpful. I have never drove a motorcycle but I'm here to get some Knowledge and study befor I take my course. I am very excited and these videos are helping alot so thank you ! 😊

great video for beginners

Slow speed riding is the most challenging and rewarding. With the right mindset it can be quite fun.

great suggestion, thanks

Good video thanks.

very wise and handfull advises here, thanks for your efforts!

Dude this is super helpful. The turning part is still a mystery but I haven’t started lessons yet.

Great video. Better to have practice for a few weeks. Grtz

thank you king

This is extremely helpful! I just got my license recently and I want to practice as much as I can before getting on the road with other vehicles. Thank you for creating these videos and for providing these suggestions.

Thank you.

It depends on the country. Here in Netherlands there are 3 exams (1st theoretical, 2nd by the school in a parking lot with cones and the 3rd one on the street/highway) so if you manage to pass all of them and have the license, there should not be a problem for you to use it on the street after. Of course that you shouldn't try crossing towns/countries in the 1st week.

Thank you for the video. Your bike is badass! What model is it?

interesting hearing you say to give cars the right of way. I was always taught to give a motorcycle the right of way. I'm going to be getting my first motorcycle soon and these videos are very well put together.

Nice one

Hey man. Recently came across your channel, im 25 years old from Norway and i dream to ride a motorcycle. Your videos are really helpful and easy to understand and to settle down the nerves. I've never rode a bike before, i bought a moped type bike a day ago Yamaha tzr, you probably know it looks like a motorcycle but its essentially a MC skin in a moped. Just to start practicing the basics because im scared. My plan is to try it a bit first and then take a course and get a lisense for normal motorcycle. I will definetly be watching your videos to learn more! Thanks man and drive safe.

Hey man, I’m all the way from Scotland and I’ve been looking for a video like this for ages and just couldn’t find the right one, until I stumbled across your series of episodes. I’m 19 and I’ve been obsessed with cars and motorcycles my whole life and I’ve been driving cars since I was the legal age (went for my car license first as it was the most practical with work and stuff) and now I’m ready to try out the two wheelers, and I just wanted to say thank you so much for these informative masterpieces! Your content is majorly helping me out man, it’s making stuff so much easier and I think I might be out on the road as soon as next week on my new 2 wheels! Thanks so much man 😁🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

you should have added about the rear brake that it helps stabilize you when dragging rear brake at slow speeds

hey man , thanks so much for these videos , theyre really helpful and keep doing what you do bro ❤️👍

Good video, recently done my cbt (uk) but been nervous about get out on my bike. This video helped alot.

💌 Awesome 💯👍👍👍. Very Good Teacher 👍👍👍. Heartfelt thanks 🥤🍫🍿🍟🌮.

I'm enjoying these videos, they are helping me alot, I'm just nervous a bit, I do have some experience riding, as I have a electric bike, jot exactly an ebike, as it rides like a sports bike, just doesn't have clutch, and both brakes are on the handle bars. I'm just nervous if I accidentally do something wrong while trying to learn clutch, and drop my Ducati Panigale 959, ya, I went big, but only cause I've been riding a bike very similar to sport bikes, minus the clutch and foot brake.

Don’t do what I did. I started by taking a g310r for a test ride. Did a few laps around the parking lot, felt good and took it for a ride on the street for about an hour. Everything kinda just fell into place and felt right for me, as if my body already knew what to do. I say don’t do what I did because I understand it takes more learning and effort for most other people. Just wanted to share my own experience. Dropped my bike a few times (mostly taking turns too wide and slow), learned from it, and here we are

Great video and advice! Been practicing in my driveway on my KTM 390 Adv. I’ll need to practice in my neighborhood and parking lot first. When backing up a bike with a higher seat height (34” vs 31” inseam), how would you recommend I back up? Would it be best to dismount and walk my bike back, or scoot on one foot?

Hardest part of driving in a parking lot is getting to the lot🤣

I’m not gonna lie I got my permit and bought me a bike… I’m a bigger guy and wish I would’ve gotten something a little smaller.. but I already bought my bike it’s a Vulcan.. but I will be going to classes as well I just wanted to get my permit so I could practice some before classes started

Enjoying this content. PetroHead, did you have prior experience before or did it all come with courses? I ask because I’m learning to ride on a CBR600 and wondering if to remain around that kind of bike or go lower cc?

My bike gets delivered in 3 days to my home and there is no large empty lot near me, sooooo i think i just have to practice on my street, a parking lot is great unless you're me and you don't know how to ride so you cant RIDE to a lot to learn out to ride. lol what a conundrum!

Hi Bro, Love from India. Please do the video about rev matching. Is that possible on smaller cc motorcycles? Please let us know in future video if possible on smaller cc motorcycles. Thanks in advance.

Cbr 125? Is it good

Whoa my left turns are better than my right turns too

Great video. I'm a total new rider and was wondering if I should take the course for over 125cc bikes or below 125cc bikes. I was thinking that if I learn how to ride a over125cc bike course I have the option and understanding to ride either whereas if I take the under 125cc bike training course I won't really know how to ride over 125cc bikes. Thoughts?

@PetroHead - What spefic Triumph bike are you riding in this parking lot tutorial?

When I am riding my motorcycle very low speeds it feels like it wants to stall and fall down so I always have to keep my throttle high and my clutch in the friction zone wireless revving. That feels like he wants to stay up better. Is that normal what I’m doing?

🤝

You didn't talk anything about clutch control while turning, stopping and starting on slow speed turns

All the burn out marks 😂

Did you leave all those burnout marks in the car park?

Slow speed stuff is alot harder than faster stuff....until you get the balance down....practice slow stuff first.....if you rode dirt bikes b4 not as critical but street is still different....if never ever rode a motorcycle yeah for sure park your butt in parking lots for awhile

How to bring the bike till parking lot. If you are new and haven’t ride a bike before

ending my first week... still feeling nervous

I know that feeling…left side turns like a pro, right turns feel like a noob 😂

Sir can u tell me KTM duke 200 bike perfect for the beginner??

For me to get to a parking lot I would have to drive on the main roads. Should I stay in my neighborhood then and practice there?

But you must hit the streets to get to the parking lot?

When you practice the turn , do I use any throttle and brakes? If yes, how much and which one?

What kind of triumph is your bike?

Were you doing donuts in that parking lot before making this video?

Question Plezz Making Sure..Your Bike is Safe Wen Parking into Shopping Centres n Plazers aye.Is it Best too Goes too the Same Shopping Plazas Where You kno Your Bike is Safe aye ❤️🖤😘🙏🙏

I hate, absolutely hate, the advice to turn your head and look where you want to turn. That's great advice for an expert and horrible advice for a beginner. My instructor kept telling me to do that and when I finally did it far enough to satisfy him I dropped the bike and fell. Looking where you want to turn requires a person to already have internalized riding a motorcycle. The bike has to be an extension of oneself before you can do that. Riding has to be automatic before you can turn your attention away towards something else. I didn't even realize I was falling until after passing 45 degrees from the ground because my gaze wasn't level with the horizon. It's as ridiculous as telling someone who is trying to learn how to type, "Don't look at the keyboard! Look at the screen!" Great advice for experts. It's not gonna work if you've never typed before.
