With absolutely no insult towards the participants this video showed the importance of practice, which fine tunes and provides options... and relieves the fear factor... hell, The 3 C's. We can ALL improve with intent and input. I look forward to seeing yall back and better.
I have been riding for about 11 years (started at 41 years old) and I have watched a bunch of these practice sessions. I realized that so many of my bad habits have come from "experienced" riders giving me advice. So many times I was told to say off my rear brake because that was for emergency only. that i needed to lean more for tighter turns, some of the other habits came from the MSF course of all places. In particular my braking in slow speeds is so much better now. Even the wife has commented on how much more confident I seem and how she no longer feels the need to stop her helmet from bumping into mine when stopping at a light or intersection. Turning in almost all situations is so much smoother. Funny enough when I first started riding I would us the rear brake only to come to a stop for no other reason other than it felt better doing so until so many convinced me otherwise. The one area I need to keep practicing is narrowing my u-turns. But I am getting there. Keep up the great content. Hopefully someday I can get to a practice session near home In NJ or even in NC where my daughter lives. KEEP IT LOADED!!!
Great job, Johnny. I though my wife and I would be the first doing two up in class in Colorado. your passenger is very comfortable with your skill set. It takes a good passenger to ride like that two up, kudos to her too! I would ride in your group two up with you guys anytime your in Wyoming. Be safe. Robert, thank you very much for allowing two up. Passengers need practice and instruction too.
I was on the big victory, this was a great session, I learned a lot. Being in person makes a huge difference, I’ve always been able to improve a lot since this session happened just from the great feedback I got. Looking forward to the next session!
@@Yeri978 You did great and it was great meeting you. Thank you very much for further supporting my channel by becoming a V.I.Preloader! It’s really appreciated!
This is Absolutely I think a Must have class, for anyone who wants to be out on the road on a motorcycle. Great Information even though I’m not in person I learned so much👍 Thank You 🙏👏
@@tchambers1701 Thank you very much! It’s my pleasure. Thank you for watching and hopefully you’re subscribed to my TH-cam channel!👍🏾😊 th-cam.com/users/BeTheBossOfYourMotorcycle I’m happy that my channel has been helpful to you! That makes all the time and effort that I put into this so worthwhile!
Hey Rob, I just finished watching, I could tell you were fading fast. Glad to see you called it. Take care of yourself, stay safe and healthy. Maybe you should only hold the practice sessions in Florida during the winter months. Just saying ✌🏻🇺🇸
Nice clean instructing as usual. In regards to dehydration, as usually..you stand in one spot with small waking rotations. Try bending those knees and keeping the blood moving via upper and lower extremities. Especially in that heat, as it’s concentrated on you while directly on the concrete. At that point you’re typically just absorbing the sun☀️. Heat Stroke is real, glad that you had the common sense to listen to your body as opposed to “toughing it out” 💪🏾
I was watching some other TH-camrs and I just wanted to say, you never down play any other techniques or instructors for what they are teaching. I say this because, I observed the one instructor training a rider who obviously did not do well during one of your previous sessions he attended. While this instructor appeared to be good at instruction and his methods appeared to have assisted the rider, it was very unprofessional to use your name and down play your teaching techniques during his video! there are always several ways to accomplish a task. Thank you for not being that person!
You're the only one I actually learned something from... you explain the technical stuff so well, no one thought me that which makes all the difference in the world... wish you were in California 😢.... I LOVE riding so much but know I have much more to learn... thank you!!!
I ride Honda Phantom any opinions about the bike? And which motorcycle (cruiser) would you recommend for a female rider ? Thank you in advance for your time
2:12:15 was a trust and believe moment for me. Bike was going over to the left, let the clutch out and it recovered of course. Still kinda put a foot down (and did my pushups!) out of instinct but I didn’t have any conscious fear of the bike going over. Trust and believe!
You gotta start carrying a portable air conditioner like the Zero Breeze or even just have one of those big portable air conditioners on wheels and roll it around with you.
@@Waldo1122 Yeah that’s not very practical. Actually I found out what the issue was. High blood pressure medication and the heat don’t mix. Lowers my pressure too much which causes the symptoms.
@@cliffordkamwendo212 Thanks! But I didn’t make the decision, my body did. I actually should have stopped much sooner. You could hear my voice was weak way before that.
Love watching your videos and would really like to be part of a training session but being in the UK that's not going to happen. I've started to to try to emulate your training methods with cones but don't really know the cone spacings, do you have a video outlining the spacings or perhaps I can get that info some other way? Keep those video's coming :)
Whenever you ask about physical disability.....I want to yell out my darn 27 1/2 inch inseam. It is a curse when inroee my Victory Vision or Harley Ultra.
Thank you for watching and hopefully you’re subscribed to my TH-cam channel!👍🏾😊 th-cam.com/users/BeTheBossOfYourMotorcycle I would have advised against that. Learning to ride with the manual is what most people find challenging. The DCT doesn’t have a friction zone, so you’re not really going to learn what you need to know to have full control of your motorcycle at slow speeds.

That bike is insane! What year is it?
@@w12ath040211 2016 victory vision. I took the tour pack off for the practice session to so that’s why there’s an ugly gap behind the license plate
The 2-up rider was smooth with it...made it look effortless.
