9:52 noone seems to have noticed, but he had three really scary close calls in one minute (Especially the second car popping up from behind the trailer)
Much, much less than a minute. 3 close calls in a mere 9 seconds. Now tell me, who's in the wrong? Hint: the saying, "if you keep having close calls on a motorcycle, the problem is you" might hint you the answer!
@@anonymoususer855 eehh, people are absolutely horrible on the road towards bikes. He looked like he may have been going a tad fast, but he's got a front lamp, all three should have looked and seen him
@@davidsii4173 I agree that people are horrible on the road towards bikes, and that the drivers should've looked around more carefully, I give you that. But the speeding and the weaving in and out of traffic are highly dangerous and far from smart riding. People don't expect a bike to approach so fast. It literally comes out of nowhere for everybody on the road. Moreover, even with the headlight on, motorcycles are smaller and therefore harder to see than cars, SUVs and trucks.
As a Georgia resident… Thank the LORD he didn’t do that in GA… GSP would’ve most definitely booked his ass, impounded the bike, and fucking ticketed him.
I dont understand why would anyone pick a fight with someone who's wearing a helmet. Like come on, all the dude needs to do is jump at you and headbutt, he can crack your head easily.
@@slothmarathonpromotions2470 Must have? I'm 99% sure that the driver didn't check his blind spot, only his mirror/-s before turning. Then he assumed that the motorcyklist must have come out of nowhere at breakneck speed since the bike seemingly popped up out of nowhere. Looking at where the bike was positioned compared to the car, and that they were going almost the same speed, it seems logical. Also, the driver might have thought the biker was disrespecting him when he revved the engine once after stopping (probably by accident). I see this stuff happening all the time when I ride, so I always assume that nobody checks their blind spots and that everyone's on their phones. It's kept me safe so far, and I don't have to feel paranoid all the time.
Yooo the guy at 9:59 not only dodges the trailer, but the oncoming car nearly pulls into him!! if he hadn't switched lanes for the trailer the other car could have seriously messed his day up. What an absolute G.
I like that you are not rude, insulting or mean, so many, most, of the moto videos are either proud of immature stupidity, or enjoying the plight of others, TY for that, I was happy to further see you want to teach instead of just showing drama.
Dan Dan the fireman, two thumbs up on the new format bro. I remember some of your first videos seems like all you were doing was complaining. Now you're showing faults and well as educating writers on what to do and what not to do. And doing a hell of a job at it. I've been riding for a long long time and I've learned quite a few new things watching your videos lately. Motorcycles is definitely a hobby you should always be learning new things at. Keep up the good work Dan 🙂
3:31 you can solve that problem by attaching a harness from the front wheel to the stabilizer used. (in this case the 3 wheel extra attached to the back wheel). This way the harness will not let the front wheel go above a certain angle.
@@s..a893 first of all thats a loaded gun not a taser. second that is not a felony stop. felony stop cops take cover behind their doors and shout orders to safely take someone into custody. havent you ever watched cops or livepd?
It boggles me how someone can turn into you when you are already occupying the lane and then be ready to throw fists, despite being in the wrong. What can they possibly be thinking???
@@ryanmalone2681 No, that is the point. If the cager didn't have that feeling of invulnerability and detachment from consequence she'd be driving more carefully. I've seen how differently many people drive around me when I'm on a bike or in a "regular" car versus when I'm driving a police car looking sedan. But then again there are a fraction of cagers who, I've also observed, just DGAF and still drive poorly even next to a police vehicle!
It’s a small residential street. This is in India. But even where I live in Australia, it’s not uncommon to see “uncontrolled intersections.” At such intersections, regular traffic rules apply. Drivers and riders should treat it as though they have a give way sign. Be prepared to stop and give way to traffic. As in India and Australia traffic drives on the left, you give way to the right. Which is why the rider in the video is upset, although he was going too fast. The “don’t blow horn” is because in India, the use of the horn is extremely routine. It is common for people to blow their horn as they approach a blind corner or any intersection in general. However, as this is a quiet residential road, I’d imagine this sign is for residents living in this area.
3:45 The rider accelerated BEFORE he could see the exit and before he straightened up the bike. With that amount of lean he probably had bad body position as well.
3:25 you solve that problem by using the rear brake to bring the front end back down. One of the most fundamental skills you need to understand when it comes to wheelies.
some of these videos are really educated the situation i must say great job and cont with more videos bro i love them :) have a great-safe journeys guys !
i love these videos, just got my M1 and im just sitting here absorbing what not to do on a bike. Im cool with cars new and old, just scared on bikes lol
Maybe so but those kind of people thrive on conflict, you really think yelling at her or threatening her is going to make a difference? And no, I'm not saying let them destroy your car or something.
My inline skating experience in cities and on trails has taught me two things VERY well that also apply to motorcycles. 1: STAY AWAY FROM DOGS. They get very weird and aggressive sometimes when you roll up on them, and it is the exact same concept for motorcycles. Confusion, then instinct, and it can get dangerous. 2. Scan the road and everything ahead and around you as closely as you can. You do not want to lose focus and hit a random pothole or rock and go flying face first onto asphalt. Be focused on the road ahead and quickly check what is around and behind when safe to do so, especially at intersections. These things have saved me from some serious incidents on skates, and they can save you on a motorcycle too.
Hey DanDan I appreciate you. Thanks for not pausing. Pausing vids was the only one thing I wasn't too big a fan of on the channel but I love everything else.
DanDan TheFireman I stumbled across your content and I appreciate the assessment of all the different footage. I just got my hands on the bars of an Indian Scout. I hope you enjoy the ride as much as I do. The F.T.R. is sweet brother. That'd be a welcome addition for me someday. Ride safe, God Bless you sir. And keep em' coming!
@3:48 is actually a super difficult corner in a semi-residential canyon, and there are always pedestrians right there. He's luckier than some that have lowsided on that road.
3:25 Add a "wheelie bar" to the bike that is adjusted to hit the back floorplate before the bike passes it's center of mass over the back wheel. Seems this will typically be over 45 degrees and really depend on the rider's weight and positioning in the seat too. 8:56 Probably a lot easier for the cop to get a better idea of the guy face to face and he's already set a good precedence. When you're that polite and forthcoming, everyone appreciates it. 10:58 If you look closely, he seems to be wearing rubber-soled items. You can see the black outline of it. Look like running shoes though...
that ticket 152mph in a 65 was a good deal, Last 2 CA tickets I got around 10 years ago was 700 bucks for around 10 over and separate red light camera with a really short freaking yellow (P.S. FU-Escondido)
the speeding ticket at 9:30 ish... in Australia they are soooo much harsher. over 40kmh over they impound and instant suspension of license, and a 2.5k (aud) fine. Even if the copper was nice, 100mph over would have no mercy
Smooth stable throttle imput. That reducing radius corner would have been fine if he looked deeper and started wider. Wrong apex and a little hot and a hot chock distraction lead to that
It seems like a simple solution to the wheelie training wheel deal in the one video would be to add a linkage to the sled that attached to the rear break pedal. Then calibrate it so that if the bike reaches more than say 45 degrees the linkage would apply rear break automatically forcing the nose of the bike back down without any input from the operator.
It looks like the wheelie girl should have had progressive, yet firm braking pressure on the rear wheel to safety slow down and avoid that crash. That was the only wheel touching the ground, so steering as you can see did literally nothing. Very cool device to learn how to stunt safely though! I'd love to try that one day.
I am just watching these so that when I get my first motorcycle soon (hopefully) I will be safe. However, 9:50 seems like a perfect example of one of the worst types of situations you can ride in. Low visibility, poor stopping/turning distance, and its a 4 lane road with center double left turn lane in what appears to be a fairly busy area... If all I have to get to work is a bike, I'm just calling in sick tbh
Hey, can someone explain what a felony stop is? To me it seemed like he was slowing down, but I don't know much, would like someone to explain what went wrong.

last video the rider had his shoes on lol. they were just really white you could barely see them 🤣
Was the rider at 7:19 running from the police and that is why the gun was pulled? I really cant wrap my mind around that happening for just speeding.
Oooo never seen training wheels b4? That cool

Obey the law Keep the damn speed limit and don’t ride like your ready to meat Jesus

where i live its 50/kmh over is an instant impound and "careless driving" charge
He was totally lookin' at the girl. Can't blame him, either.
Yes.... Yes you can
I woulda slowed down 🤣. Then sped off cause I’m married 🤣
The way he caught himself and say hey what’s up is the reason why he bikes ahahaha
He should have looked more. Girl was on the right side in a right turn. Look more lean more.

I get so much life wisdom from you if I look at all this as metaphors.

Didn´t the officer point a gun/taser towards him ? How´s that polite ? xD

Should have had a stopper bar coming outta the rear. The weight transfer had hit the point of no return with out some experience and skill.
