My pleasure Yuri!

I better rewatch it Lot of time to surely understand

where im from you have to be 24 years old to ride anything that is over 25kw power, and even for 125cc you have to go to driving school and pass national theory and driving exam at age 16 for it. and for 25kw power ones you need to be 20 year old, and have to retake the licence and go to instructor again for 16 hours, and have to pass national theory exam and driving exam 45 minutes in streets. But if you had the A2 licence which you get at 20, you dont have to do exams at 24, you just get your limitations on what you can ride. So they teach you all. Start is like first few hours is in closed training area, where you learn figures, before you go on to the streets with instructor driving behind you. But things hes saying here, like passing switch, does not exsist on my 21 year old CBR600F4iS. :D And bike doesnt move on its own so well in first gear, second and up, it moves well. And i use the killswitch, because i dont want to turn off ignition first, because if you have ignition still on with killswitch, radiator and cooling still keeps working on older bikes, so i helps my bike cool off a bit.

Thanks Yuri. Super happy this is helping people. And you validation means so much

Where are you from?

Lol yeah. I hope we both will own it one day

same i have an exam in 5 days

same, my exam is in 3 hours lmao

BRO I'M LITERALLY DOING THE SAME THING🤣🤣I'M 18 YRS OLD

Me too

Cool saying huh

@@socalriderb Yeah and it's true as fuck too. No matter if youre playing guitar or riding a motorcycle. If you practice mistakes you will keep doing those mistakes.

Practice makes *improvement*

Interesting, about twenty seven years ago I had a baseball coach that said this to our team. Always remember that.

@@nachostv4217 I used to have a music teacher that had said "Practice makes permanent, not perfect" it's arguable but I don't necessarily find it to be wrong

On my way to pick up my new to me 2019 zx6r …. Going to be a 636 Gurlie 😂🎉🎉

lol true

MT03s seem like an awesome first bike too. I have a MT07 and love it.

So True😂

Fr 😭

Lololololololololololololololol you really have to be taught by the best or constructive minds, in order to efficiently learn and completely understand what is being said, the first time. I already knew how to drive a stick, so I applied the same reasoning to the bikes mechanics. The best motor vehicle I've ever drove/rode.

What class did you take and where

Why were you in a motorcycling class for a week 😭

@@teddyawesome5197 nooo it's a figure of speech of sorts

@@teddyawesome5197how long do they usually last?

True story

I agree. I was under the impression that you had to get on the throttle at the same time that you slowly released the clutch. I didn't know that the bike would not stall if I didn't give it some throttle. You can add the throttle after you have completely released the clutch lever if I am following this correctly and I think I am just by watching how the bike was moving and the instructor was not even using the throttle. This was the best tip for me. That and perfect practice makes for perfect learning. Before the internet came out I tried to ride a motorcycle with just being told how to do it by a buddy. That is not the ideal way to learn how to ride. Trust me on that. This KZfaq thing has helped me learn so much. I'm an older guy and a lot of my learning has been by trial and error. KZfaq has made it so the errors are much less than they used to be. Learning to ride a motorcycle at my age by trial and error without getting some good instruction first is not a good idea.

Nah bro... first time on you're supposed to get to about 5000 rpm and just let that lever fly... don't want to burn out the clutch...👍

Well it depends sometimes I ride this 1970 old bike with like 2 ccs and it cant even idle😂 but if you want to get going you have to give it plenty of gas before you release the clutch. But most motorcycles should have enough power.

@@richardwestmoreland4796 You evidently took very seriously the recommendation to stay off the throttle while slowly releasing the clutch to get going, BUT did you take note of the almost-as-serious recommendation regarding the throttle when you want to slow down? @socialriderb said if you completely release the throttle while it's in gear, it could be jerky. I don't think anybody wants a jerky motorbike or to be near one. If I were to ever get on a motorcycle, I would have to really study those details because it's a bit different from a bicycle. On a motorcycle, both brakes are on the right side while the left side is all that dangerous stuff. I still have no idea how he uses that lever down there to get into 2nd, 3rd, etc. Can he tell he's in neutral WITHOUT looking at his dashboard???? Anyway, if you head down this path, I wish you the best, and hope you study the heck out of these details and practice them under differing safe conditions so that your rides produce beautiful memories instead of nightmares. Best to you.

Thank you for the love you sent. It will be reinvested back into this channel. I am hoping to go full time to bring grade a content one day.

@@socalriderb Just wanted to add, As someone who is considering buying a motorcycle this video is great! Your presentation is very good.

My sis really wants to ride one so this video will also be helpful to her as I found it fun, easy and a quick way to learn ❤️

Very amazing

im proud of you!!! im gonna learn soon to get a harley sportster 1200! keep ridin!!!

Thank you! Hubby has a Harley dynaglide - they're big & heavy (compared to street bikes) but they sit so low & solid it def helps to balance out the weight but leaning into turns with that much machine might be a lil intimidating at first. Best of luck & stay vertical, friend! Thanks for the good vibes 😌

Sounds like a real caring hubby. Looks like someone wants a divorce, sweetie … 😂

I'm the same height as you but I just turned 20 today and I got my first big boy. It's a Suzuki SV650 and I haven't had experience with anything over 125cc so I'm a little nervous. I can't wait to start practicing though.

@@onionjuiceinc.7702 how has it been going? I'm About to switch from a 125cc to a 600 soon

Thanks

Got my first bike last summer then dropped it twice in 2 weeks haven’t done it since

@@Stephanie-ou2fd This is the way 🤟 keep on riding and stay safe!!

I started with a 125cc at 17y/o. I dropped it 2 times while learning. It was nothing, I was riding very slow and my engine choked and turned off, and I lost balance. The other time I braked with my wheel turned. I'm all good, I can ride my bike quite good (still learning) and I LOVE IT. Gonna get my A2 category this year and a bigger bike. :DD

My biggest problem is that I keep forgetting the clutch and that i dont know how to brake the rear brake cause i keep leaning that way,it always feels like im gonna drop

Nothing but cap

or just take a msf course lol

Msf course giving out free lessons are they?

I totally agree this guy should look into being an actual instructor he definately has what it takes

Check out this cool little bike kzfaq.info/get/bejne/eeCWiZRi2L60hWg.html

Best of luck!

Howd it go?

Yes how it go? I hope all went well.

@@lindarivera5843 It went very well!! Still getting used to downshifting lol

Your comment is on point! KUDOS!

That’s a lot of power for a bike!

Im getting ZX14 myself

@@thepack8780 good! It's the best bike ever made. Get one while you still can.

i get my 400 tmm im so hyper cant even sleep its been 10 years plus since i riding but 400 looks super easy compare to 10 , 15 years ago

@@crim7755 Exact same boat, I'm 32, haven't road a bike since like 14 years old, so around 17-18 years ago, and my Ninja 400 will be arriving next week. I"m both nervous and super hype excited!

These are great points! I will consider adding these as videos to make!

@@socalriderb I'm glad you find them useful.

Been there done that when I was learning 😅 weight shifts are important, after riding a few thousand kms it just comes naturally I guess but at first awareness is required.

@@lurch789 i feel that people naturally gravitate towards the rear brake at first due to how a bicycle works - in most cases the rear brake is applied first (especially on a hill) because the front brake will throw you off.

@@lurch789if you don’t mind me asking. What is engine braking?

Just dont grab too much front brake. At high speeds rear brake only wont stop you at all.

Why do bikes not have more back braking power than front braking power?

@@matthew9677 I think it's just because of physics, not intentional design. Your front brake is in front of 95% of the weight of the bike and can slow it down easier because the mass of the bike is pushing right into it, while the back brake is behind all the mass, so the full weight of the bike is just pulling that back tire along for the ride no matter how tightly it brakes

@@amisfitpuivk that makes sense

Hey it’s my pleasure. I think everyone deserves a shot at riding. I just want to help those who want to ride

@@socalriderb emm i have been driving a car since i was 9 and rode a motorcycle at 14 there syrian kids in lebanon who can barely press the breaks on a motorcycle who drive, anyone can drive really, think about it rationally you arent doing fast and furious shit so it should be alright. just dontdont do anything stupid and take it nice and slow

@Oscar not exactly right but yeah if you know how to ride a bicycle you can kind of handle a bike

@@ammarbasbous8119 it’s not just about what you can do on the bike, it’s about how best to deal with others around you. People die a lot on motorcycles because they don’t know how to minimize the dangers others produce for them… especially from aggressive Jeep drivers. 😕

Not even close. Not even 5% of what a BRC teaches a rider. 70% of the course is talking about how to mentally ride and scan, find outs in situations, etc. 30% is how to ride. 25% of how to ride is how to emergency brake, how to turn corners, countersteering, uturns, etc. This was 5%. If you bake your friend don't make him think this substitutes for a safety course. Riding is a life long hobby, make your friend take a 2 day BRC so that life long hobby is a long life not a short one

@@derekderek2570 also, have fun talking to a ghost ✌️

@@TisRye are you serious? I'm sorry to hear that if you're not messing with me

@@TisRye he made a good point, you might as well reply maturely..

@@nukester. got my base lessons done and will be switching to a bigger bike for the last few lessons and my exam. Won’t be able to do it this year since winter is approaching and motorcycle lessons will be on hold until spring. Gives me more time to save up for my first bike though!

Hey Jeremy that's so cool 😎🤩 I'm super stoked for you!

i wish you good journeys on the Ninja! truly a fantastic bike.

How would it be something you should probably already know if you don't own or ride one though? Are the people around you just that bad?

@@javianbrown8627 I'm a big fan of anything that goes fast, but I admit my knowledge of motorcycles is limited, other than watching racing on tv and the occasional ride as a passenger. Always fun to learn new things!

@@DANA-lx8cv car community 🤝 bike community that's how it should be

@@lostinsound_wav The bike community is one of the best in the world. I have already experienced that and it's amazing

@@DANA-lx8cv fun fact - race bikes have the opposite gear effect to road bikes. Road - click lever 1 time down for 1st gear, then each click up takes you +1 gear to 2nd, 3rd, 4th etc. Race - click lever 1 time UP for 1st year, then each click DOWN takes you +1 gear to 2nd, 3rd, 4th etc. When racing you need to be break into a corner, lean over, then power through the rest of the corner, going up through the gears while still leaning over, and accelerate onto the straight. Because you're leaned over your left foot is very close to the track. If you had to put your foot under the lever it would get caught between the lever and the track. So you keep your foot on top and you just tap down to go up through the gears. It keeps your foot away from the track while accelerating.

Thanks for your heartfelt comment. I appreciate you and your support

Glad to have you join. I remember that feeling

Hey man did u end up getting the 400? and how has it been? Im looking into getting a 2014 300 when the season gets better ( im in canada )

I did get the 400

And that was perfectly delivered 😂

Yeah! If the bike is in tha range of 200cc and below, this is a FACT. You need to slowly give the throttle while in the clutch balance zone.

@@din3lka it's not. My 125 rolled fine without any throttle

@@aschelocke5287 even a 70c bike can.

@@din3lka now days the idle for even under 200cc bikes is big. Either that or gtt (glide through technology) has been introduced, my 160cc bike can coast at 20kph even in 4th gear

JN2 Media I'm glad you brought this point up. I was thinking exactly the same thing. Not all bikes are the same and my understanding prior to seeing this video was that you had to slowly add some throttle as you released the clutch lever or the bike might stall or at least have a jerking motion. I'm sure that everyone's goal is to have smooth starts and acceleration and I was thinking if the idle on the bike isn't properly adjusted or it's a cold morning and the engine hasn't come up to a good operating temperature you might not have smooth starts if you don't open the throttle a bit.

Thank you 🙏

Same 😂

Me too! Learning in 2016 and after a few accidents, I'm so confident nowadays to ride any bike but nothing beats careful riding and not to drive with ego adrenaline (that's where I get 5 or 6 times accident)

Yes sir. I also recommend going with a MSF as well

Thank you for that Shreyas

Yes they are very similar

Good luck with your license and happy riding

Good luck from Essex 👍

Good luck with getting your licence. I've been riding for over 50 years, and passed my test when it was a lot easier than it is now. My best advice for survival is never assume that other drivers have seen you, and always give yourself an escape strategy. I still find it amazing that, in the US, it seems you can ride a comparatively large capacity bike on the road with little or no experience or formal training.

Bro that’s what’s up!

Did u get them

Happy that I could help

Thank for that!

Glad it helped! Good luck bro

Wow, thanks!

Thanks 🙏

It's my pleasure man! Best of luck on your journey!

You're very welcome!

Hey thanks! Glad this helps

Bro I am super happy to hear this!!! Congratulations Bro Bro

@@socalriderb Like PeteZa I really liked the part where you explained the use of the clutch in conjunction with the throttle. Before seeing your video I thought that the bike would stall if you didn't open the throttle a bit as you slowly released the clutch lever. Correct me if I'm wrong but the bike won't stall even if you don't get on the throttle at the same time as you slowly release the clutch lever. Are all motorcycles like that? I was thinking that if the bike's idle wasn't properly adjusted when you release the clutch lever the bike could stall. Especially when it is cold out and the engine hasn't warmed up a bit first. Could you expound upon what is the best practice when you are starting the bike before the engine has come up in temperature on say a cold morning?

Thanks bro!

Bro 10k of safe riding is sick

Ha how naive I was

Getting your first motorcycle is a beautiful experience!

That means a lot. I really appreciate your help and support.

Very true! I agree with you 100 and think every new rider should do this. There is a difference between being experienced vs. trained.
