Guys, HERE is Our TRUE Savior YaH The Heavenly FATHER HIMSELF was Who they Crucified for our sins, NOT jesus, and “HERE IS THE PROOF” From the Ancient Semitic Scroll: "Yad He Vav He" is what Moses wrote, when Moses asked YaH His Name (Exodus 3) Ancient Semitic Direct Translation Yad - "Behold The Hand" He - "Behold the Breath" Vav - "Behold The NAIL"
This video further reinforced in my mind what a pathetically inadequate rider I am, and I'm 100% good with that. A man has got to know his limitations. =)
Last point is on point. People always ask “aren’t you hot?” when I’m geared up. My response is always “I rather be hot than hurt if something happens”. Not saying you will be completely unscathed, but gear drastically reduces the injuries you may sustain and the amount of recovery time needed before you can jump back on your bike.
fuck road rash with a capital F......ive had bad ones from different sport and its the worst......."the pain that keeps on giving thruout its life"....i actually like my skin.......with gear today on how good and comfy it is no reason really
Awesome what you said always do a "sighting lap" , I just had bloke crash right in front of me in my local twisty road, and I Said to him I always take it I easy the first lap. He's answer nah I have fun straight away, then I said ( as I'm helping pick up his bike ) how's that working for ya
You don't know if that was the reason for his crash! What an arrogant assumption. The one thing you shouldn't have to learn is to leave other riders alone. Nobody gives a shit about some random guys opinion out on the road and how they ride.
Dude, that was a cool video...great skills, and an accurate description on choosing the right lines while traversing curves... The ONLY criticism I could announce though is that you didn't mention accelerating hard through a turn without seeing it's exit. This imo is suicide on public roads... Maybe you did and I missed it, but if you didn't, this is something that needs to be mentioned... I almost got killed once accelerating hard through a section of road that provided minimal visibility within typical reactionary time and distance. Some major TOOL with a Blazer was attempting to turn around this section of road pulling a trailer blocking the ENTIRE road..@ 80+mph I thought for sure I was DEAD...fortunately my brakes were better then I thought, it was dry, and I had no one on the back. Since that day I never accelerate beyond my line of sight...no way. This near death incident occurred after 25+ years of riding experience...thinking I knew it all. WRONG! No disrespect intended man...
+AdrianRP1 Very true. I think this serves as a specific incident that applies to my mention of only riding at 60-70% of your ability. you need to be able to react to sudden obstacles. Ppls first reaction is to always blame a driver that is doing an illegal or ill advised turn in front of a rider. I always make the point that it could've also been a huge rock that fell into the middle of the road. Would you get furious at that rock?? while it sucks to have to deal with another human that had bad timing, its still our ultimate responsibility to keep ourselves alive. The answer to that is to ride in a manner that leaves us room to react to the unknown. Stay safe. Thanks for sharing, and glad you came out of it unscathed. *thumbs up*
AdrianRP1 I couldn't agree more......Rule # 2 of 10 (of how to stay alive while riding a motorcycle)....rule # 2 never ever out run your eye sight....rule # 1 your invisible to everyone no matter what...rule # 3 "YOU HAVE TO ANTICIPATE WHAT THE OTHER CAR IS GOING TO DO BEFORE THEY DO IT" and for those of you that say "You can't do that your not a mind reader".....ride 30 years on the road and you will agree. 1- look for a head turn..... 2 look for a hand position change on the steering wheel....etc...etc..... all of these may indicate a lane change. Look at this way...see that hot mustang, camaro, hoped up import etc.... coming down the on ramp, may be an aggressive driver so prepare and put your self in position to be able to react or avoid if necessary. See a wood grain station wagon with a blue haired old lady coming down the ramp.... will probably not be as aggressive as the mustang but you do have to watch them for not being able to see good (so there's that s**t) That takes you back to # 1 "YOUR ALWAYS INVISIBLE TO EVERYONE" And for the love of God people....get your damn eyes up on the road and out of you damn phones. I should make a video on the 10 commandments of staying alive on a motorcycle...maybe I will. "God speed to all"

I'm a motorcyclist and a road bike cyclist. Really appreciate your instructions. Would love if you or RevZilla would post some instructions about dealing with bicyclists on canyon and mountain roads. As a road bicyclists who loves pedaling these roads, motorcyclists are my greatest fear. They buzz us within inches of our lives. We (bicyclists) are just trying to do what motorcyclists are doing - that is, enjoy the love of the road. Motorcyclists who pass within inches are simply bullies and also very ignorant riders risking everyone's well being. Also, if two or more motorcyclists are carving around, please be aware that bicyclists only hear the first bike as it passes - we often get startled and might twitch a bit - right into the path of motorcycle #2 or #3...please encourage mutual respect on the road for all. And with that said, yes I am also aware that many many road bicyclists ride like idiots and do not follow the laws of the road - but please do not punish all bicyclists because of a small proportion. Thanks!
+Daniel Cipriani I push pedals as well. I always harp that we motorcyclists need to share the road with anyone and everyone when other riders try to curse bicyclists. Ive come across many cyclists and Downhill boarders, and the love and mutual respect for doing what we love is always reflected. *thumbs up*
What I learned today: outside, inside, outside, outside, inside, inside, outside offside, inside, outside. GOT IT! (Jk Bucky. I actually did learn a bunch of stuff :P)
Almir Osmanović hahaha I hit some twisties last night with some random dudes I met last night and I had a bunch of o shit moments lol over all a good night but I pushed my self too hard and came into a fee corners 2 hot for never being on the roads we were riding
This is awesome!!!! More tip videos! Maybe tips when riding in the city heavy traffic, maybe tips on how to ride your bikes that have abs vs non abs in the city Awesome video more of these keep them coming
I read frequently people asking about body position and i think we should be reminded that there is no one correct way to ride a motorcycle. There are different riding styles created by all of us that make us feel comfortable, and with comfort comes speed.
+DJ MotoVlogs It's interesting watching vids like this because I have footage from those exact same camera angles on those exact same corners... just that Bucky is taking the corners 5-10mph faster hahaha.
All this butt shifting, knee dragging stuff is absolutely unnecessary for public road riding. People do it for fun and pictures but you should be going no where close to the speeds where such techniques start to matter. Save it for the track and stay alive.
Great to see Bucky laying down some knowledge to a large audience like this. I was lucky enough to have him as a guide to sherpa me through the snake the last time I visited. Video doesn't do justice to his pace there. Great rider and great to see him rocking the reservoir decal. Keep up the great work! More Bucky please!
Didn't notice the disappearing go pro did you? The only times he was talking was when he had go pro on his chin with mic attached. Then they added in video without go pro on chin with voice over from when it was on his chin. Very sneaky.
TheS13browe surely all they do is run all video cameras - in this case 3 I think - and mix the video they want for final edit and just take the audio feed from one of them - in this case the chin camera. I think that's perfectly common practice.
auscurrymaster no in this case watch the chin camera disappear in many clips, it was there in one clip and is not there in others. They had it on for easy run and took it off for his hard run but the voice continues as usual. He wasn't talking whilst riding hard only when taking it easy. So all they did was take the voice from his easy run and added clips in of his harder run over top but he wasn't actually talking in them. Hope that makes sense watch again for disappearing chin camera (can be seen in rear view mirror as well).
Your guy's videos are always so great. I love the informative product reviews but I've still yet to find more professional, accessible, and well-done motorcycle videos on TH-cam. Keep it up!
no matter if you are very familiar with the road or not.... ALWAYS do a low speed run, to assert the conditions that may have change since last time (even if that was yesterday). there is nothing worst than "attack" a familiar road with 100% confidences and then discover dirt or new holes mid turn... it can even create a panic situation
Of course you always want to consider positions such as braking marker, corner turn in, apex and corner exit. Corner attributes such as radius, camber, elevation and traction (perfect road, tar patches, cement, dirt). These things can change throughout the turn so you have decreasing radius, increasing radius, uphill, downhill, crest of hill (if you grab big air, no traction) bottom of valley (bump steer) and camber goes positive or negative half way through the turn. You can stand slightly on the pegs and play with weighing the inside peg (or outside peg). Late apex a decreasing radius turn, early apex an increasing radius turn. The wide arc is fun if you don't have a lot of power or aren't using it. Get it in, get in turned and fire it out works great if you have tons of power. AKA point and shoot.
Great video, simple and informative! However, it would be really nice if you could perhaps do another video similar to this that touches on body position. Most riders who lack experience on the track and in the twisties tend to ride really crossed up, which essentially means they're hanging the lower half of their body off much more aggressively than their head and their torso. This seems to be a product of both lack of experience and desire to drag knee which seems to make people think they're going fast despite their form being terrible. Dragging knee could be another thing you could touch on, why it happens, how it happens, when it should happen, etc. But all around a great video, just like pretty much all the content you guys have been producing! You can tell there's a lot of love for motorcycling at RevZilla.
I rode this canyon a couple times. its pretty difficult cuz of all the tight curves. its also very dangerous for beginners. I dont recommend if your a first time rider to ride this route until you are very skilled. Good Riding!!!
Awesome advise on the carving and the apex and the gear to wear when riding. And I check my tire pressure every other day. And important to make sure your chain is lube. I love revzilla for the vids on here and on their website.
this video was great to watch and listen to your bike and hear u at the same time so that's a plus!!!!!! badass video it's tight and right on the money and it helps out alot!!!!
Impossible to underestimate familiarity with the road. That is one of the great things about the track...brain is doing less continuous assessment for unknown factors...
Well - good job. I'm pretty confident with the skill ur show here you could do it while staying inside ur own lane - without clippsing the double yellow. I'd love to see a vid about the safe line ...
Start out dirt bike Motocross riding. Do it for years. Get good at it... Real good. Then move to other surfaces that provide more traction. also... Good tips on riding gear.. Thanks.
Good video. Would have liked to seen some braking/swerving techniques. Here in Colorado we have lot's of bicyclists, rabbits, deer, snakes, tourists, dogs and pot smokers.
Man, I don't know how these guys can carry on a narrative while at the same time shredding corners on a super bike. I don't even really shred corners, but the closest that I can get to doing that requires every single ounce of my concentration. Not bashing the dude, just pointing out that it is amazing.
i dont move around my lane much for the fact theres always oncoming traffic so i keep my head out of the other lane by not leaning into it while ridding near the double yellow. the middle is where all the oil is and the only other option is the outside track which leaves you open to being passed and more road debris as you get closer to the shoulder
At 1:50 till 2:05, Bucky demonstrate a common mistake in canyon riding. Any solution if we are riding at the wrong side, to correct the situation without put the bike up straight. Sometimes I find my self overrun to the opposite lane. I abort that action by apply brake, but it makes me stay at the wrong side even longer which is much more dangerous should there is vehicle coming from opposite.
Some very useful info, but the lines are good for track use only. You need to see and be seen on public roads and position yourself according, ie right side of your lane on a left hander and left side of your lane on a right hander. This way you see whats ahead sooner and whats ahead see's you sooner. There is a book called roadcaraft that covers this. Very nicely presented video though.
Great video for the most part. One thing though, that I consider a major risk: you complained about that one rider being on your side of the road, but nearly every left turn, at least your head is over the line. Which might be fine, when there is no traffic in the opposite direction. But following your (in my opinion correct) train of thought that you should not ride 100% in the twisties and have room to react to unforseen obstacles, I think you never should be over that line with any part of your body or bike at any point in time.
Saw a video of crashes in the "Snake" the other day, and seems like they were pushing it beyond knowledge and skills. Hope this footage helps pprevent them from accidents, and show how to take those sweet curves. 😉
+nathan saldana yeah it's the new GoPro Hero 5 TeleMount, you can tell it via the GoPro app to teleport to different mounting points based on location or on a time schedule.
Probably because that gets into specifics for a certain bike and riding conditions. it won't be the same for everyone, and they have to limit their liability as a company.
Rivers Ludden But it sounds like a tire specific rather than a bike specific chart, and there's no more liability in sharing it than there already would be with this video, which they did of course include a disclaimer.
Fair point on the liability, but even if it's a tire specific issue, there are a lot of different tires and bikes and weights, and this was a more general overview video than a "list off some numbers" video.
They actually found that in consecutive turns you make more time by keeping to outside inside outside depending on distance. Yea, I'll stick to the pros when learning about bikes.
You’re a great rider and I love revzilla. One thing that stood out though, was this felt more like a commercial because if you really wanted to teach you could add that PSI chart you mentioned having. No disrespect.
As you pointed out dealing with the unexpected, ie..bicycles, dirt on the road, etc. is a good reason to NOT follow "track racing lines" on a public road. The idea is good, but almost never works on public roads, IMHO. Thanks!
+Norm K. idd. Don't go for the apex, stay on the outside until you see the end of the corner, then go for the inside. We don't ride the same road up & down, we ride spirited and always new roads. Vision is the most important aspect, and even then there can always happen the most unexpected shit. I hit a buzzard @ high speed, frontal with my helmet, right after a corner. It flew 30-40cm above the trees, came over the road at high speed, and I could only see it for like 1 sec. The odds are small ... but it can still happen. A neck bracelet saved my life, without it my helmet would have smacked backwards so hard that I would have felt off the bike. The people riding behind me couldn't believe I came unharmed out of this situation.
Anyone have advice for tire pressure? I ride a 2003 CBR600RR and I've been running 36/36, but I've crashed like 3 times so far in the canyons lol I thought I was just getting unlucky with dirty roads but now I'm starting to think it's because my tire pressure was too high. What do most people run for Q3's in the canyons?
Please consider doing reviews on the Harley Davidson Street Glide, Wide Glide, and Ultra Limited as well as the BMW R1200rt and K1600gtl. I've seen other reviews on them but you guys are the best so I'm dying to see your take on those bikes
Are the speed limits on Mulholland pretty relaxed? I know out here in the mountains of north Georgia, you gotta keep it within reason cause the men in blue will be there to tag you.
Good tips man! I also have the Q3's on my ZX6R. I heard they have carbon fiber side walls that help in case the tire is under inflated. But yeah its always best to check
+diggsmiggs its not so much of a help. It changes the characteristics of the carcass (inner structure of the tire). it actually requires less air pressure than other manufacturers. Ive accidentally run the dunlops at low pressure, and let me tell you, it feels just as sludgy as any other under inflated tire. *thumbs up*
That last bicyclist had a deathwish riding in the middle of the lane at the top of the J-turn. I honestly don't understand why there are so many bicyclists on that road. So many good canyon roads in the Santa Monica mountains if I was a bicyclist I would go to the road with the least motos.
Awesome video, I've been looking for a more modern video explaining some technique so thank you. Also curious on what your microphone set up is, sounds very clear for you having to concentrate on riding while explaining what you're doing. Thanks again keep up the awesome vids!
alota question bucky I've just crashed 2 times from what we called as mountain range riding(or canyon riding) i use pr4 120-70,160-60 which i havent got any problem in city(cornering) and i realy need to learn cornering properly before i completely wreck the bike what is the best gear or rpm or speed when entering the turn? do i hit a litle break before entering the turn? should i shift to lower gear like 2, or 3? please help me
In America the outside inside line is known as the progressive line and its considered faster than the normal and safer line that is also in the Motorcycle Federation Handbook. The problem with the progressive line in deeply wooded areas and with blind bends is that it leaves no or to little a sight line of whats around the bend and if there is something there one is more likely to hit it and die. So if watching this in England do not practice this sort of line around any bends and in America maybe its why some 4.500 motorcyclists die each year on your roads. I have no idea how many lives are ruined by this progressive manoeuvre but it must also be significantly responsible for many paraplegicts and others whose lives are and have been affected, including those of loved ones. If you fancy to do this style of riding get on a track and then if you fall off and slide you will hit nothing and hopefully not damage your bike to muchs. Good riding ability is not pushing more than 70 % of yourself and always leave something back in reserve. Of anticipating the worst and making allowances for it. You can still enjoy bends and take great pleasure in them and riding out of them but in a safer environment. Once you know a bend on a race track you can go faster and push the envelope unfortunately if you know a road well you may take the bend to fast and not expect something coming the other way on the wrong side of the lines as that other biker did and nearly got hit. or indeed a stopped vehicle having broken down. So never ever be complaicent, recognise the inherrent danger of bends and always enjoy but take care. Always presume that the bend, known or not, is either tightening, ie a reducing radius or that their is going to be an obstruction on the blind or dead side of it. There is a basic premise to safe motorcycling and that is.... as the far horizon [ the furtherts that you can see] reduces then we reduce speed accordingly. It doesnt mean that we fail to enjoy the ride indeed all it means is that at the end of the ride we return home to our lived ones with a smile on all our faces.
How can we get that psi chart you talked about ?

Excellent video. Should talk about line of sight. You need to able to stop in the distance you can see. That road has some very limited sight lines.
Of course you always want to consider positions such as braking marker, corner turn in, apex and corner exit. Corner attributes such as radius, camber, elevation and traction (perfect road, tar patches, cement, dirt). These things can change throughout the turn so you have decreasing radius, increasing radius, uphill, downhill, crest of hill (if you grab big air, no traction) bottom of valley (bump steer) and camber goes positive or negative half way through the turn. You can stand slightly on the pegs and play with weighing the inside peg (or outside peg). Late apex a decreasing radius turn, early apex an increasing radius turn. The wide arc is fun if you don't have a lot of power or aren't using it. Get it in, get in turned and fire it out works great if you have tons of power. AKA point and shoot.
great job Bucky. Every Vid I watch of yours I learn something new. Thanks much for the "street" lesson vs track.
Thank you Bryce! Glad you're picking up what I'm laying down!!!
Great video, simple and informative! However, it would be really nice if you could perhaps do another video similar to this that touches on body position. Most riders who lack experience on the track and in the twisties tend to ride really crossed up, which essentially means they're hanging the lower half of their body off much more aggressively than their head and their torso. This seems to be a product of both lack of experience and desire to drag knee which seems to make people think they're going fast despite their form being terrible. Dragging knee could be another thing you could touch on, why it happens, how it happens, when it should happen, etc. But all around a great video, just like pretty much all the content you guys have been producing! You can tell there's a lot of love for motorcycling at RevZilla.
Love riding the snake, luckily live in the neighborhood. Thanks for the tips Bucky!
I just keep going until my knee hits the road thanks to those Q3's I got from you guys :D
very good video, short and precise. one of the most applicable tip videos I've watched! every canyon rider should watch this
I rode this canyon a couple times. its pretty difficult cuz of all the tight curves. its also very dangerous for beginners. I dont recommend if your a first time rider to ride this route until you are very skilled. Good Riding!!!
Good tips. Nice that you pointed out ride below your ability on the road.
Awesome advise on the carving and the apex and the gear to wear when riding. And I check my tire pressure every other day. And important to make sure your chain is lube. I love revzilla for the vids on here and on their website.
The narrative as you ride!... That's some skill man!...
Nice video! Just in time for the sunshine
One of the best real world videos I've seen. Thanks.
this video was great to watch and listen to your bike and hear u at the same time so that's a plus!!!!!! badass video it's tight and right on the money and it helps out alot!!!!
Impossible to underestimate familiarity with the road. That is one of the great things about the track...brain is doing less continuous assessment for unknown factors...
Bucky as always, you're the man!
Well - good job. I'm pretty confident with the skill ur show here you could do it while staying inside ur own lane - without clippsing the double yellow.
I'd love to see a vid about the safe line ...
Start out dirt bike Motocross riding. Do it for years. Get good at it... Real good. Then move to other surfaces that provide more traction. also... Good tips on riding gear.. Thanks.
cool video. another one on braking and leaning into corners on the twisties would be cool
This dude's 70% is like my 3000% - and he can formulate coherent content while doing it. Jesus. Well done good sir.
Really awesome vid guys! I thoroughly enjoyed these tips.
Good video. Would have liked to seen some braking/swerving techniques. Here in Colorado we have lot's of bicyclists, rabbits, deer, snakes, tourists, dogs and pot smokers.
he's killing it like having a conversation at a coffee shop. he's good
Man, I don't know how these guys can carry on a narrative while at the same time shredding corners on a super bike. I don't even really shred corners, but the closest that I can get to doing that requires every single ounce of my concentration. Not bashing the dude, just pointing out that it is amazing.
No harm taken Phil. Thanks for watching!
To the point and very useful best vid on biking i've watched
i dont move around my lane much for the fact theres always oncoming traffic so i keep my head out of the other lane by not leaning into it while ridding near the double yellow. the middle is where all the oil is and the only other option is the outside track which leaves you open to being passed and more road debris as you get closer to the shoulder
At 1:50 till 2:05, Bucky demonstrate a common mistake in canyon riding. Any solution if we are riding at the wrong side, to correct the situation without put the bike up straight. Sometimes I find my self overrun to the opposite lane. I abort that action by apply brake, but it makes me stay at the wrong side even longer which is much more dangerous should there is vehicle coming from opposite.
Thank you for taking the time to give some good advice.
Love the tape over the speedo
Fantastic road, riding and video. Many thanks. Not sure I followed your instruction about lines in the S turns.
impressive video. well done revzilla well done!
Good advice for the track. My first dislike on a Revzilla sponsored video.
Funny I came here for a few tips and you're riding a bike like mine. Perfect.
Some very useful info, but the lines are good for track use only. You need to see and be seen on public roads and position yourself according, ie right side of your lane on a left hander and left side of your lane on a right hander. This way you see whats ahead sooner and whats ahead see's you sooner. There is a book called roadcaraft that covers this. Very nicely presented video though.
Excellent video and tips Bucky and RevZilla! Maybe there is some supermoto content in the works... :)
great video. this can be a learning experience or a friendly reminder. please make more videos like this
Great video for the most part. One thing though, that I consider a major risk: you complained about that one rider being on your side of the road, but nearly every left turn, at least your head is over the line. Which might be fine, when there is no traffic in the opposite direction. But following your (in my opinion correct) train of thought that you should not ride 100% in the twisties and have room to react to unforseen obstacles, I think you never should be over that line with any part of your body or bike at any point in time.
Great video. Very sensible advices. Good job.
Saw a video of crashes in the "Snake" the other day, and seems like they were pushing it beyond knowledge and skills. Hope this footage helps pprevent them from accidents, and show how to take those sweet curves. 😉
Anyone notice how his go pro on his chin keeps disappearing and re-appearing.
+nathan saldana yeah it's the new GoPro Hero 5 TeleMount, you can tell it via the GoPro app to teleport to different mounting points based on location or on a time schedule.
+arnuilmees no way that's fucking sick! Ahahaha
+nathan saldana notsureifsrs
Stealth mode? LOL!
+nathan saldana and that his mouth doesn't move when he talks :p
Is Bucky coming back anytime soon? I really enjoy his work, both here, and the bike review he did on Revzilla.
It's possible. -DrewZilla
Very well done, but why not share the recommended tire pressures list he mentioned with us?
Probably because that gets into specifics for a certain bike and riding conditions. it won't be the same for everyone, and they have to limit their liability as a company.
Rivers Ludden
But it sounds like a tire specific rather than a bike specific chart, and there's no more liability in sharing it than there already would be with this video, which they did of course include a disclaimer.
Fair point on the liability, but even if it's a tire specific issue, there are a lot of different tires and bikes and weights, and this was a more general overview video than a "list off some numbers" video.
+Motorcycle Extremist It's listed on his Instagram account: instagram.com/p/BESUfEphcF_/ This should do it. -DrewZilla
RevZilla
Thanks!
They actually found that in consecutive turns you make more time by keeping to outside inside outside depending on distance. Yea, I'll stick to the pros when learning about bikes.
You’re a great rider and I love revzilla. One thing that stood out though, was this felt more like a commercial because if you really wanted to teach you could add that PSI chart you mentioned having. No disrespect.
That chart is linked in a bunch of the comments. Here it is again for your convenience. -DrewZilla

As you pointed out dealing with the unexpected, ie..bicycles, dirt on the road, etc. is a good reason to NOT follow "track racing lines" on a public road. The idea is good, but almost never works on public roads, IMHO. Thanks!
+Norm K. idd.
Don't go for the apex, stay on the outside until you see the end of the corner, then go for the inside.
We don't ride the same road up & down, we ride spirited and always new roads.
Vision is the most important aspect, and even then there can always happen the most unexpected shit. I hit a buzzard @ high speed, frontal with my helmet, right after a corner. It flew 30-40cm above the trees, came over the road at high speed, and I could only see it for like 1 sec. The odds are small ... but it can still happen. A neck bracelet saved my life, without it my helmet would have smacked backwards so hard that I would have felt off the bike. The people riding behind me couldn't believe I came unharmed out of this situation.
This was actually pretty decent and had no cheese. Thanks, man. Looks like we have the same style.
Heck yeah man! Thanks for that
Great video! Some very good tips with explaining mistakes you see many people make. Unfortunately I live in a place without any canyons to carve :/
Anyone have advice for tire pressure? I ride a 2003 CBR600RR and I've been running 36/36, but I've crashed like 3 times so far in the canyons lol
I thought I was just getting unlucky with dirty roads but now I'm starting to think it's because my tire pressure was too high. What do most people run for Q3's in the canyons?
Good advice Bucky I enjoyed your video, I am much slower because of my ability and there's no shame in that.
Its all about having fun man! Im def not the fastest, but I probably have the biggest smile on my face :)
Dude amazing riding and control!!! awesome tips as well thank you! Stay Frosty!
Great tips, I have been riding for ten years but i am still a little scared to dive the r6 into corners hard. You ride very good.
Thanks for the video, it had excellent riding tips & instructions.
This is great. Would love more videos like this
Please consider doing reviews on the Harley Davidson Street Glide, Wide Glide, and Ultra Limited as well as the BMW R1200rt and K1600gtl. I've seen other reviews on them but you guys are the best so I'm dying to see your take on those bikes
Love the video, a lot of nice tips to remember!
Great tips. More please, body position, etc.
Great riding, some good tips. Keep doing these videos.
Awesome video! Learned some quite important and useful information, will definitely be able to use it for my next ride(:
Glad to hear it bud. Ride Safe!!!
Great video! Hope to see more
Are the speed limits on Mulholland pretty relaxed? I know out here in the mountains of north Georgia, you gotta keep it within reason cause the men in blue will be there to tag you.
Thanks for the tips keep up the good work 👍🏿
Fine display of riding.
just recently started learning how to ride a motorcycle :)
Every rider appreciates a video like this canyon highway or not but no gear will save u crashing into rocks poles and guardrails
can you do a video on steep down hill riding a lot of rider have trouble with it
great vid, more tips on canyon/mountain carving please
Good tips man!
I also have the Q3's on my ZX6R. I heard they have carbon fiber side walls that help in case the tire is under inflated. But yeah its always best to check
+diggsmiggs its not so much of a help. It changes the characteristics of the carcass (inner structure of the tire). it actually requires less air pressure than other manufacturers. Ive accidentally run the dunlops at low pressure, and let me tell you, it feels just as sludgy as any other under inflated tire. *thumbs up*
That last bicyclist had a deathwish riding in the middle of the lane at the top of the J-turn. I honestly don't understand why there are so many bicyclists on that road. So many good canyon roads in the Santa Monica mountains if I was a bicyclist I would go to the road with the least motos.
Please more! Awesome informative vid!
Awesome video, I've been looking for a more modern video explaining some technique so thank you. Also curious on what your microphone set up is, sounds very clear for you having to concentrate on riding while explaining what you're doing. Thanks again keep up the awesome vids!
+Jesse Ayala Sena Bluetooth set up with the gopro backpack
Can you link the spreadsheet with tire pressures you refer to?
+soulshinobi It's listed on his Instagram account: instagram.com/p/BESUfEphcF_/ This should do it. -DrewZilla
+RevZilla Thanks! You should add it to the video description too :)
Bucky, out of curiosity what type of back and chest protector are you riding with on this video?
Found a channel on youtube once where I swear it was purely crashes that happen up where this was filmed, lol. Infamous spot it seems.
Awesome video, thanks for the tips!
great tips on the lines!
Dope video bro I need more video on canyon riding confidently and properly
alota question bucky
I've just crashed 2 times from what we called as mountain range riding(or canyon riding)
i use pr4 120-70,160-60 which i havent got any problem in city(cornering)
and i realy need to learn cornering properly before i completely wreck the bike
what is the best gear or rpm or speed when entering the turn?
do i hit a litle break before entering the turn?
should i shift to lower gear like 2, or 3?
please help me
In America the outside inside line is known as the progressive line and its considered faster than the normal and safer line that is also in the Motorcycle Federation Handbook. The problem with the progressive line in deeply wooded areas and with blind bends is that it leaves no or to little a sight line of whats around the bend and if there is something there one is more likely to hit it and die.
So if watching this in England do not practice this sort of line around any bends and in America maybe its why some 4.500 motorcyclists die each year on your roads. I have no idea how many lives are ruined by this progressive manoeuvre but it must also be significantly responsible for many paraplegicts and others whose lives are and have been affected, including those of loved ones.
If you fancy to do this style of riding get on a track and then if you fall off and slide you will hit nothing and hopefully not damage your bike to muchs. Good riding ability is not pushing more than 70 % of yourself and always leave something back in reserve. Of anticipating the worst and making allowances for it. You can still enjoy bends and take great pleasure in them and riding out of them but in a safer environment.
Once you know a bend on a race track you can go faster and push the envelope unfortunately if you know a road well you may take the bend to fast and not expect something coming the other way on the wrong side of the lines as that other biker did and nearly got hit. or indeed a stopped vehicle having broken down. So never ever be complaicent, recognise the inherrent danger of bends and always enjoy but take care. Always presume that the bend, known or not, is either tightening, ie a reducing radius or that their is going to be an obstruction on the blind or dead side of it.
There is a basic premise to safe motorcycling and that is.... as the far horizon [ the furtherts that you can see] reduces then we reduce speed accordingly. It doesnt mean that we fail to enjoy the ride indeed all it means is that at the end of the ride we return home to our lived ones with a smile on all our faces.
