You have such great enthusiasm and your videos are top notch. If every rider would practice your lessons just 5 minutes a day they would improve their skills and accidents and injuries would be reduced. Keep up the great work.
Mastering slow speed riding & balance is really necessary. As a very new rider, today I was going through city jams (caused by F1 fensing), and had numerous start/stops and slow speed movement among cars - so even my little efforts to develop skills described in this video paid back. My main struggle now is to keep hands loose during small turns, as it prevents me from good clutch/throttle control when turning.
Hello My Friend Thank you for your Brilliant instructions I am 57 I learned about motorcycles gradually since i was about 12 Some off road and some on road Im 6f 1in and 225 evenly distributed For the last 5 years i pedaled i bicycle for all travels to work and errands I saved enough to buy the first part of my journey. I recently purchased a 2023 triumph tiger 850 sport, the Caspian blue I am currently studying all your videos and training on this motorcycle. Next year i plan to get the Tiger 1200 This is a Tremendously important part of my life and brings me alot of Joy I plan to do both on and off road riding I wanted to begin Again with this 850 and study and train for a year with it and then get one of the versions of the Tiger 1200 I am immensely thankful for your advice and Brilliant insights All Happiness to you my Friend Take care Thank you
Your videos show some amazing balance and control. You have me doing the slow race and balance at every stop light. I do it at every light unless I am Two Tired. Ha
Great information! There is a reason that rake and trail are so often specified on data sheets. Trail helps keep the motorcycle stable as it moves forward. The contact patch of the motorcycle wants to center behind where the line from the steering head axis hits the ground (not a line down the center of the fork tubes). Anyone wanting to turn their Harley into a chopper had better be familiar with this concept.
Excellent information as always. Dissecting the body position and its possible uses can help a rider correct many of the ergonomic disasters he/she goes through.
Hi Andrey, thanks for a nice video. If I may have a video request; what about dropping the motorbike (falling) at low (or high) speeds; what to do personally to get hurt as little as possible. (don't get your leg/foot caught under the bike, how to not burn your legs on the exhaust pipe, get your hand/arm stuck in between the handlebar grips and the barkbuster crashguards, ...) And maybe also the pro and contra's about bike protection? I have a friend who had a crash at only 60km/h and his bike got flipped over several times because his crash bar got caught on a small short obstacle sticking out of the side of the road. In his scenario his motorbike would have been much better of without crash bars around the engine. Anyway; thanks for your video's!
@@MotoControlEn Thank you sooo much, I appreciate it very much. Thanks in general about your cool (very good) channel with a lot of friendly and good advice! Drive safe.
@@MotoControlEn Thanks Andrey, I'm pretty sure it will be very good, as usual. Maybe, in that future video, you could add some content about the differences between braking on the rain on an ABS vs a non ABS motorcycle. All the best from Brazil and, once again, thank you so much. ✌
Do you have any advice for someone who had a bad experience with their first time learning to ride? Had never been on a motorcycle before and this past weekend I took a safety course. The bikes were much bigger than expected (Harley Street 500s) and I had a hard time with it (5'1, 105lbs). Dropped it several times. Couldn't take a slow turn successfully. I have a Yamaha V-Star 250 in the garage. I assume it will be much easier to learn on with being about 200 pounds less, but right now my confidence is a bit shot.
how about this, i have problem when doing my figure 8 test, i'm holding the clutch filly off and after awhile the bike run out of momentum and i want to add more power so i release the clutch a little bit, when the clutch start to engage friction zone it's make the bike slower (almost suddenly) and because i wanting more power to gain more speed so i have trouble, i struggle and lost my balance. (also my figure 8 test is the most hard on earth, you have to keep both wheels in 19 inch lane of 22 ft U-turn figure 8 all the time so i very struggle when trying turn corectly, much easier if free to do turn but in tight lane i can't, any advice?) many thanks...
I practice this all the time, since I ride into Brooklyn and Manhattan I have to perfect this, due to too much traffic. Great info. P.S Where did you get those boots?
The more I feel that relaxed control on the bike, as opposed to nervousness, the more addictive it gets.
Same omg haha

Perfectly balanced, as all things should be

My man, I just passed my license exam. You have no idea how much your videos with exercises have helped me! Thank you a LOT!!! Спасибо!!

This guy helped me to get the best out of my driving classes

Another excellent video, thank you very much. Not many mention those of us who have no clutch on our bikes.

We need more people like MotoControl in our lives. 😎
I had huge issues with balance in my first 2 classes.
Solution?
Go ride a bicycle for a week or two.
Not joking.

You're a Good Rider! You make it look so easy... Good Video
Thank you very much sir,😅!
Excelente tutoring my friend. Like them very much. Hi from Puerto Rico amigo.

Hi! Ok, I'll make a video about that:)
@@MotoControlEn Thank you sooo much, I appreciate it very much. Thanks in general about your cool (very good) channel with a lot of friendly and good advice! Drive safe.
Think i want to be as skilled as You are on a motorcycle 🏍😊👍 Cheers from Australia 🇦🇺🍹🕺
It's a great video, to bad I have a semiauto bike and can't use the clutch independently, but using tbe front brake gives me a similar effect.
Thanks for the videos! I have already purchased both of your motorcycle courses!
Thanks, I hope you found them useful😊
@@MotoControlEn Yes however i can't seem to find space to practice since there is no open carparks in my city of Singapore where space is a premium.
thanks very much, good content.
Having issues at balancing... Attended my first practical and I'm not sure if I'll ever manage
Do you know how to ride a bicycle?
You could make a video about riding in the rain, a condition that can be tricky even for seasoned motorcyclists.
Regards from Brazil. ✌
Good idea, I will!

Thanks Andrey, I'm pretty sure it will be very good, as usual.

A cool video on the ghost rider effect is one called "RUNAWAY STUNT BIKE GONE WRONG" from NorthernWheelies.
Excellent information and explanation
Regards Virendra dr
Excellent, thank you
im a new rider but i use a scooter, can someone explain how can i replicate the technique at 2:24 without clutch? it would be much of a help thanks 😅
Here because i got kicked out of beginner motorcycle class. I didnt drop it but i felt incredibly hard to keep balance and control the bike 😢
Don't be scared you got this 🙂
Am lacking balancing in a bike
Wish may God help me
Brilliant!
Davai Davai!
Will that half clutch technique burn the clutch plate or damage it somehow?
What ia difference between throttle and acceleration??
how about this, i have problem when doing my figure 8 test, i'm holding the clutch filly off and after awhile the bike run out of momentum and i want to add more power so i release the clutch a little bit, when the clutch start to engage friction zone it's make the bike slower (almost suddenly) and because i wanting more power to gain more speed so i have trouble, i struggle and lost my balance.

Always ✅✅✅👍👍👍
I practice this all the time, since I ride into Brooklyn and Manhattan I have to perfect this, due to too much traffic.
Great info.
P.S
Where did you get those boots?
0:49 🤣
what is the bike u are using in 3:52 ?
Kawasaki D-Tracker 250
I say balancing is a wholenlot easier once you get moving
I think you can beat Robert Simmons in a slow speed race. Don’t know if you know him?
Two Tired 🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂
🥁
20 mins i remember how lol im him i swear
👍👍👍👍
I wish to come and be with a nice, gentleman and affection pouring in every moment,in every word. That you speak
