Great course in which I learned a lot and continued to practice everything I learned afterwards. Jerry is a badass period and I will always stay tuned into his life saving teaching.

I was in this class on the Blu on White ultra, I gained about 80 percent confidence but in the last week, I told Jerry that my biggest fear is loss of traction and he explained to me that I will NOT lose traction, since then, I believe so much in what Jerry teaches that I went out knowing I will NOT lose traction and my confidence level went up about another 15% and I'm scraping my floor boards now and loving the way his techniques are working for me. I'll be taking a refresher course. Thank you so much Jerry Palladino.

Some dealers see dollar signs and or the sales guy needs that commission to make ends meet. They don't care you don't know how to handle a 900lbs bike. A good salesman will ask all the right questions to get you on a bike that will fit you for now and maybe later when you can ride after gaining some above riding skills you can purchase a heavy touring bike.

"Go big or go home" is not a good rule of thumb for a newly minted rider buying their first motorcycle. A mistake too many new riders make and I see a lot where I am. That guy who came from up north will lose everything he's learned and any inkling of progress if he doesn't go home and practice. He needs to find a "Ride Like a Pro" course where he lives or something like that. I'm a police motor trained rider and have been riding 26 years and I still practice the stuff Jerry shows and more advanced stuff too. Master the basics and maintain them, IMPORTANT.

It's absolutely terrifying to think that these guys are acutally out on the road with these big touring bikes, thinking that they know what the hell they are doing... I'm 70, been riding for 60 Plus years and I can tell anyone willing to listen that I learned so much from the RIDE LIKE A PRO course (book, DVD's etc) than I would have imagined. I was happy that I was doing a lot right, and I was able to correct some bad habits that I had developed over the years. I ride ALL YEAR LONG (Here in New York) and believe me, the $85.00 is a small price to pay to keep you sharp (with continual practice) and keep you alive.. DON'T BE A DOOFUS! Get the damn course and impress the folks at the old age home... (Or the young bucks who think they know something.)...

BTW, a friend of mine is just getting back on a bike after a few years in cages. He stopped in this area for a couple of weeks on his way to snowbird in Arizona, so we're doing some riding together, and I notice that his major issue is being rusty and working on remembering what he used to know. He doesn't want to take a course because of his pride, and because he needs brush-up and practice, not initial instruction. I wonder if there would be demand for a "Welcome Back" course for riders who don't want to embarrass themselves in front of younger folks (might be perfect for your guy in the Land of AZ), and if there is anything different to spend the time on than in a normal course.
@motorman8572 жыл бұрын
Here's the truth. If a rider has never had any training, they are riding on instinct. And when it comes to riding skillfully, it's the opposite of your instincts. So, your friend never had technique before, and now he's just trying to get back to being the unskilled rider he was before. He needs the RLAP course, not some special course for people who knew nothing before and want to get back to being the unskilled rider he was before. They may sound harsh, but it's the facts. If pride is keeping him from going to my course, ask him to make a simple u-turn on a side street. When he fails at that, ask him what he's going to do when a car violates his right of way at 50 mph.

Just curious, motorman ever strongly advise some folks - “Do not ride any motorcycles on the public roadways because your a safety concern to yourself and the public”? You want to ride and that’s fine, but your going to need a lot of training. If you do not yield to my advise - you’ve greatly increase your chances of killing yourself or someone else. Trailer that bike to a training facility till you have “X” amount of hours in that seat. I know if I was serious about learning a new skill, I don’t make excuses of “why” I can’t. This individual isn’t putting out 150% effort. This riders best bet, is to absolutely forget everything he’s learned up to this point and completely retain from the beginning.

Did you find out what state/region he actually got his license in and sent them this video hopefully to let them know what they need to do to make better riders or hold some back for extra training how many others you won't know that will crash because they thought it was good enough for them to pass?🤔🤦♂️

Here's the good news. I just spoke with him on the phone and though he lives in PA. He's coming back here in December for a one on one lesson and then another 4 hour class. Since he's not a quitter, I believe I can turn him around. Since he's up north, it's too cold to ride up there. I've turned around much much worse than him. Here's an example. Watch it to the end because I show what she looked like the 1st day. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/pLGBetZz2rzFaYU.html

@@motorman857 That was a pretty impressive transformation for the woman rider. Gives pause for hope for the guy from PA. If I were you, with him I'd start with teaching him how to stop his motorcycle before moving on to one lane u-eez.
