      I somehow lost my password. I would love any assistance you can give me!

      He's quality. Excellent. Direct, clear, and is so able to explain things. No waffle.

    This guy is becoming a legend. Eminently watchable content that leaves you knowing something every time. The dogs conkers.

      Andy Satch THATS just what I’ve been thinking but couldn’t articulate it as well as you have 😂👍🏻

      Andy Satch - He’s been a legend for a while now!

    • @krayzieegg7294
      @krayzieegg7294 4 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      been a legend for a while now.. i would say he got the superiority now when it comes to bike review etc on youtube. a veteran.. but still the quality of the video and audio is like im living in the more or less 2010s.. but the quality of the content of the video is top notch though

    • @andysatch9150
      @andysatch9150 4 ปีที่แล้ว

      I should clarify, he's been finally recognised by me as a legend! :)

    • @zook600
      @zook600 4 ปีที่แล้ว

      I remember Neevsey getting the position following the audition format, well deserved, guy’s done well 👍

  • @ATGMotoring
    @ATGMotoring 3 ปีที่แล้ว +10

    Being a bike rider for over 25 years, I just came across this video by accident this has to be some of the best advice I’ve seen. I could picture everything he was explaining. I can’t wait to consciously apply it. Keep up the great work! 👍

      I was thinking the exact same thing, he paints a great relatable mental pitcher.

    These are fast becoming a 'must watch' for me. First passed my test in 2004, bought a CBR600RR, then I got married, I couldn't justify the extra expense with our first daughter on the way so sold the bike in 2006 and regretted it ever since. In my 40th year I got back on an RR last July. Films like this are hugely encouraging and have given me a load of tools to make me safer on the road and (hopefully) faster on track. Keep them coming Neevsey, they're excellent👌🏻

  • @IanH-UK
    @IanH-UK 4 ปีที่แล้ว +25

    I've done the Ron Haslam race school.
    Superb experience.
    I'd never done a trackday and just being able to turn up and get everything given to me to ride was fantastic.

  • @Ben-qq6jq
    @Ben-qq6jq 4 ปีที่แล้ว +30

    This direction is great Neevesy. Reviews are all well and good but this is the sort of juicy insight folks are hungry for. Get your own channel and fly free.

    • @kevinperree7764
      @kevinperree7764 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Ben he has his own channel, but doesn’t post much on it. I guess his hobby/job is riding bikes, not making and editing video’s

    • @maxflight777
      @maxflight777 3 ปีที่แล้ว

      Fall out with his employer ? Hmm Ben 🤔

  • @yonniboy1
    @yonniboy1 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I'd been riding for 32 years when I was bought a day at Ron Haslams school in 2008, I learned more about riding in that one day than I had in the previous 30 years!

    I love these vids he's doing , more so than some reviews he does wich are so short. good work!

  • @ded32
    @ded32 4 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    I just did a small ride with one exception. I bent my inside arm during corners... Wow, now I have to incorporate it all together, step by step. From one guy, thank you.

  • @jeremycox8261

    Neevsy is as articulate as Simon and as passionate as Sylvan. I’m really enjoying the content. Thanks

  • @borgandre
    @borgandre 4 ปีที่แล้ว +17

    Just wanted to say thank you for this well presented, informative, educational and down to earth video. I'm not a person that comment about videos so that's saying something.

    @logangallagher7050 3 ปีที่แล้ว

    This is my favourite motorcycle journalist/teacher/reviewer, he is really humble, gives good advise. When he says a bike is good I listen and when he give a riding tip I listen.

  • @husseyfamily509
    @husseyfamily509 7 หลายเดือนก่อน

    I have watched a LOT of Neevesy's video. They are always informative always helpful, and one was the reason I brought a GSXR750. Thank you for the time, effort and knowledge that you give back the motorcycle racers and hobbyist. It IS appreciated very much.

  • @rob23wheeler
    @rob23wheeler 4 ปีที่แล้ว +3

    I could listen to this guy all day, makes complete sense and very watchable, thank you Michael Neeves and MCN

  • @cabbage681
    @cabbage681 7 หลายเดือนก่อน

    Definitely the best instruction for people new to track days that I have come across, if you get this guy on your track day you'll leave with a smile on your face and the rubber right side up,

  • @josegerman8877
    @josegerman8877 4 ปีที่แล้ว +9

    Everything you said on this video it felt like you was talking to me riding with me on track especially opening the throttle FULL...WOW....And I am a late braker and slow coming out and I know its fear of the full throttle and not knowing will I make the next corner or not make it an Highside.....BUT AMAZING ADVICE...THANK YOU!!!!!!!!!!!

  • @KingCast65
    @KingCast65 4 ปีที่แล้ว

    He's so great and such a nice guy who really reaches out to the community. He will chat with people he's doesn't know from Adam when you know he's busy AF. Ask me how I know LOL. Great stuff.

  • @sleepindragon179
    @sleepindragon179 4 ปีที่แล้ว +11

    @Mr_Frazza 4 ปีที่แล้ว +4

    So a lot of other TH-cam channels are doing these sorts of "to camera" chats but these ones are gold, Neevesy gets you hooked in straight away, i love this stuff and can't get enough. Keep it up.

  • @GT380man
    @GT380man 3 ปีที่แล้ว

    A slow rider, but for very many years (44 years) I enjoy listening to those who can ride fast & safely. I’m fine just being reasonably safe. It’s still fun.

  • @fadykomery1479
    @fadykomery1479 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Been to riding schools, read books, watched videos, etc. first time someone explained so many important topics In a concise fashion that actually made sense to me. More please.

  • @johnkattenhorn
    @johnkattenhorn 4 ปีที่แล้ว +3

    I always liked the reviews and especially the recent videos that Neevesy is doing in the downstairs toilet at home. This one made me laugh out loud, "get used to the violence" ... so true!

    @stevebonnici8012 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    Love the way he relates the straights as mini drag strips"" is somthing i have alway said ! I come from drag racing and moto -x to road and circuit and adopt the same principle.
    Best tuition advice i can pass on to new riders is this video.

  • @mphracingvideos

    @midlifeadventurer6545 ปีที่แล้ว

    I rode Phillip Island this week (what a dream). I really really wish I had seen this first. The only thing I feel I was getting right was body positioning, watching this. More than anything, I was getting throttle in the corners completely wrong.
    Great video!

  • @Juan2Wheels
    @Juan2Wheels 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    Amazing, it's like you are talking directly to me, half of the things you have mentioned are happening to me and my last 2 instructors didn't mention any of these mistakes, but I understand now some of these mistakes, next track day I would have in mind each one of these improve points and check if I can correct the mistakes, thanks for such a wonderful video.

    The best no BS guide to being safe and fast on track I've seen on TH-cam. Loving these intimate videos Neesvy, top advice delivered perfectly. I've done Ron's school twice in the Premiers and looking forward to stepping up to the Elite soon - fingers crossed I have you as my tutor.

    My first day at Ron Haslam's Race School was great fun and I learnt a lot, but I've learnt even more from this video. Can't wait to go back and try to put this into practice. Having said that, even just a short ride would be welcome currently!

  • @palerider6611
    @palerider6611 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    Thankyou so much for making this video Neevesy! I feel I've learnt so much from it. I've just had two track days cancelled due to the situation but will be watching this over a few times before I eventually get to ride. I have watched the others you mentioned so I have a great chance of something sinking in to try! Thankyou.
