Awesome video!!! Today is officially my first day riding. I picked up an '02 SV650 last night and have a MSF course scheduled for the 18th, but until then I am about to do probably 6000 laps around my neighborhood annoying my neighbors lol. EDIT: I just got home from my first time ever on a motorcycle. It was surprisingly intuitive. I stalled twice learning the clutch, then never stalled again. I don't have a parking lot nearby, so I just started pulling laps around the neighborhood and was surprised how manageable this 650 is even with the larger more torquey aftermarket sprocket the previous owner put on. I was so scared an intimidated by motorcycles, but it wasn't so bad. I actually was really confident and comfortable with the riding and operation of the bike, the thing I was struggling on was the lack of vision from the helmet, spatial awareness, forgetting my turn signals multiple times, and anxiety when a car was behind me, but in terms of actually operating the bike, it felt really good. I was smoothly upshifting, smoothly downshifting and blipping the throttle within 10 minutes of riding (I have been aggressively driving stick shift cars for the past 15 years every day, so shifting and rev matching is already ingrained in me), and I was able to downshift to first>come to a complete stop at a sign without putting even one foot down>smoothly pulling away after just a few laps. also, I DEFINITELY understand the argument now of if a SV650 is a good first bike. It was completely manageable even with the aftermarket sprocket and light enough where I feel comfortable, BUT.... I am almost 34 and think I am super responsible and even I was feeling the 21 year old me coming out after a few laps and had to reel it back and remind myself that I am brand new to this and don't want to squid across the street on day one. Just a half inch of throttle in second gear is more acceleration than I have ever felt in a car and the fact that there is still like 80% more throttle and 4k rps above what I was doing kinda terrified me and tempted me at the same time. I think if I got this bike when I was 21, I would already be in a tree. 33 year old boring me was even struggling to keep my testosterone in check hahahaha. This is already an addiction though. I came inside because my arms are tired (I know I am probably using them too much to support myself and should hug the tank more to prevent that), but I already wanna go back out. my wife is gonna hate me when I am out taking 2 hour pointless drives every day hahahaha.

In my experience, if you live with your parents, you might as well forget it. But if you’re really brazen, take a safety course, get your license, save up and buy a used bike. They MIGHT not make you sell it. It’s nearly impossible to convince your parents that getting a bike is a good idea.

LEARN IN THE DIRT!! imo thats the best way to learn if you've never ridden a motorcycle. trust me falling in dirt and grass in field hurts alot less than on pavement. dirt bikes are lighter, cheaper (buy and fix), and not as fast. you can learn braking, clutching, gearing, cornering, everything. you can even go out right after it rains, and learn how react and handle a bike when the rear tire breaks loose. I promise if you know how to tear up a a wet hay field or go skipping through corn field rows wide open on a dirt bike, you're already a better rider than most of the riders on the street. I learned to ride dirt bikes when I was little and got bigger ones as I grew, I never touched a street bike until 2 years ago when I bought my friends older cbr600 when he got a new one. this was the first street bike I ever rode and spent about a month learning the bike. mostly just cornering, dirt bike you kick your heel into the dirt and pivot the bike around your leg where on a street bike you lean. I talked my friend whose been riding street bikes for 5+ years into going to track with me where I cooked his lap time by over 10 seconds.

The physics are: Gyroscopic precession. When a force us applied to a rotating object the maximum effect will be felt 90° later in the plane of rotation. Riding upright, turn bars to the right, the front of the tire goes right, the rear goes left. The maximum force will be 90° later, at top and bottom of wheel, pushing wheel over to the left causing the motorcycle to lean left. That's counter steering.

i had a street bike a few years ago and rode it everywhere but had to sell it when my car broke down and i needed to get a new one, just recently got another bike after having some more disposable income and im loving it. luckily i have tons of experience with manual transmissions in cars and my dad had me riding dirt bikes since i was able to walk so im very comfortable with the controls but i do enjoy these videos that are targeted towards people who are less comfortable riding bikes in traffic and on public roads. its super helpful to have some more experienced street riders input on best practices to avoid becoming a pancake. biggest thing for me was getting out of the off road mindset and learning that i can’t just pin the throttle whenever there’s a straight and i have to be vigilant about where other drivers are and what they are likely to do. thanks yam!

I learned how to ride over the last few days. I purchased a 1985 yamah virago 1000 from an impound yard, it hadn't ran in 20 years. I can drive stick, and I've rode banshee's before. But this was my first two wheeled experience. And I gotta say it's extremely satisfying, just going around the neighborhood at 25 mph. The bike does alot of the work, it was insanely intuitive leaning into a curve. The transmission is stupidly gratifying, being able to just click through the gears is bliss. Now, I am not telling anyone to go get a 1000 cc bike and figure it out. But so far, it's working out for me

Its not your primary brake, but you need to use it in all aspects of riding - i wont get into its use in trail braking etc, but even going very fast into corners (even at the track) the rear brake is used - but very moderately. Practice and use both your brakes ;)

I agree with Sunde and will add that it help greatly in slow parking lot maneuvers. They didn't teach that little nugget in the beginner course when I took it.

The rear brake actually helps your control and balance while turning I mostly use it when I'm turning into a parking lot or I'll use it lightly when I need to turn fast

When I first dropped my Scooter, I was doing a U-turn the opposite way to what I was taught as to get onto the pavement and took it a little too sharp. I got home thinking my dad was gonna kill me because I had bought it the day before as an ex-demo so it only had about 100 miles on the clock. First thing he did was laugh, second thing he did was say “if you haven’t dropped a bike, you aren’t a real biker”. In sixish months of riding I haven’t dropped it since, but I have dropped her in a ditch doing a U-turn on a tight road, broken the gear shifter on my cruiser causing me to ride in first gear home, broken the gear shifter and had to push the bike up a steep hill to the nearest car park , fallen off of my dad’s Divvy in an accidental pillion power wheelie as well as accidentally caused a 3 bike domino effect in the garage. Whoops! At least I know how to not massively break myself when something happens on the bike. The more unique mistakes you make, the more you learn what not to do.

Regarding the "how much hp" question, I think our German "stepped license system" is a pretty good rule of thumb for that... At 16 years, you can start with 125cc up to 15hp (0.1 hp/kg ratio)... then with 18 you can enter "the big ones" which are restricted to 48hp (0.2 hp/kg) and after a couple years in the 48hp class you can get the open license and ride what you want... So I´d say you were pretty spot on with your 50hp recommendation :)

I've been slowly catching up on all your videos, and I'm realizing how much goes into it...but also how my dad who has been riding longer than I've been alive, has less confidence in himself and his bike than I do, as a total beginner. (He refuses to go on the highway, takes surface streets to his office and all, or takes his truck for everything further than the grocery store)

For the Breaking, tip for understanding: Your front suspension have to be compressed from the preload from braking and more weight on the wheel=more grip=you can pull harder (Progressive braking!) And Downshifting Usefull for a car too (i mean rewmatched downshift)

Throttle matching via blips is a more advanced technique maybe reserved for those above the title of noob.. so I'd advise the clutch lever as a scalpel, rather than a switch.. if you're losing traction on down shifts the best advice I'd give the noob, is to release the clutch lever slower. Ie, be the the slipper clutch.. this allows the engine to slow gradually and meet up with the wheel speed and not break traction. We slip the clutch to accelerate, so it's perfectly acceptable to slip the clutch on deceleration all the same..
@Tubetinkerer
@Tubetinkerer 3 жыл бұрын
Good advise, but it's perfectly possible to blip and downshift without using the clutch at all. Not 2nd to 1st obviously, but all other gears I do it all the time on my SV650S.

The question @ 9:12 about downshifting. You forgot to talk about knowing the max speed of each gear. Having the knowledge of the max speed of each gear. Go out and find out how fast you can go in each gear and make a mental note of it so when you need to down shift and you're going 45 you know you shouldn't go past said gear. That how i learned i can go down to 1st IF I rev match while doing 60mph.

The advice I got which came into play more than once is: When dealing with large animals Brake, If you can't stop, avoid but if you aren't sure if you can avoid stay straight and Brake until just before impact brace and hope for the best. You don't want to hit with your handlebars cocked. I've killed a Deer and bumped a couple of dogs at low speed (no injuries).Never fell.

I know that most people won't agree with me on this but it has help me a ton on understanding driving, riding, and just walking. It's balance control, you won't believe how many people don't practice this and improve their balance control in their life. Hey you should do ride stimulators where are actually on a motorcycle to control and play the simulator(s) It's great for practice riding without being outside.

One of my most embarrassing moments. I finally decided to go to the bike night. One of the local shops invites me to park next to their primo bikes. I put my stand down about 80% rather than 100% by accident. The bike slowy inched forward and I fell over in slow motion in front of 100s of people and my buddies. Was actually thankful my buddies were there. They quickly picked the bike and me up lol. I was up quicker than I went down. Bike friends are the best!!!

My Father had a 1950 Harley 61 cu. inch (1000 cc) Police bike and he would take me for rides when I was 4 years old and from that I was a motorcycle guy from then on . After that I was allways borrowing bikes from every one I met who had one . at seven years old I became the mechanic I am today . I was so little in those days and cars were high off the ground and i could put a starter on a car with out a jack ! well because I could fix motorcycles I got to test drive them . The Honda 50 cc had just came out and I got to ride lots of them ! starting with Honda 50s Suzuki 80s Honda 90s triumph 200 cub the Honda dream and the other 305 s ( street and scramblers) finally got the Yamaha twins which was finally fast enough !! Chasing speed was an obsession ! The progression was gradual and I rode alot and aggressively ! Raced a yamaha 250 for about 5 years ! Got a job test driving New Nortons and Moto Guzzi's ! I just gave away My Honda 350 and sold my 1982 Yamaha Seca 750 and have just now Inherited a Kawasaki 1000 cc Chips Bike ( California Highway Patrol bike , it still has its siren and blue rotating Beacon ! Thank you for your shows !

16:29 In regards to covering the clutch/brake, I never cover my brake while riding but I have a loose enough grip on the throttle to where I can grab it quickly and controlled if needed, but I ALWAYS cover the clutch which was taught in my MSF course and I didnt know why at first. Now I have muscle memory to work the clutch my hand is already on and downshift in an emergency so my conscious brain can focus on how much brake I need to grab.

“Why does my bike feel heavy at slow speeds?” Gyroscopic forces... yes! 100%. Though part of that answer might be steering head angle.... The “chopper” like forward ness of the front tire will feel really heavy at slow speeds (specially in slow turns) vs the upright stance of a sport bike.... suggestion; try different frames with different “geometry”... with in your means, of course.... great content and advice. Thanks Yammie.

I’ve had my bike licence for 10 years. I’m now on my third bike - CBR250R, GSX-R600, M109R. I still feel like a beginner. I don’t do a lot of k’s (translation: miles) and I’m lucky if I get to ride once a month these days. I really enjoy my M109 and have made it own with mods, I ride well within my skill level in good conditions only. If I never progress beyond beginner, that’s totally ok because I’m enjoying myself.

@falconovic688

6:10 the answer is Gyroscopic force (as you stated) along with Centripetal force. Think of centripetal force as the force that acts on a given body moving in a circular path, much like a race car on a track. As the car takes on an angled curve on the track it must maintain a certain speed to stay in that curve or it slides down... the same principle applies to the bike and why it feels heavy when you slow down and don't maintain your speed in the curve. The bike becomes heavier as you lose speed and momentum and starts to fall because of gravity :)

The first time I dropped my motorcycle was three days after I got my permit and was riding with a buddy. Took a curve and the next curve was covered in gravel, a combination of bad brakes, beginner awareness, and the poor decision of driving confidently on roads I did not know left me still going 20mph when I hit the gravel. Two options were straight into a wall or 100% lowside on the curve. Took the lowside, and to my chagrin the bike didn't get a single scratch anywhere except a scuff on the bottom faring and muffler. I also took no damage whatsoever. Buddy said to take it as a free lesson on awareness and why to keep your bike maintained. Never will forget that. Second time I dropped my bike I was trying to get it on the center stand and it slipped LOL.
