I'm seventy four years old, and I've been riding since my early teens. I had to sell my 2017 HD street glide, because of health problems, and weakness. I thought that my days on two wheels had come to an end. I went as far as buying a three wheeler. Well it didn't take long to figure out that three wheels doesn't feel the same as two!

Robert is telling you guys the right way. Since finding the channel ( I've been riding for 23+ years) and practicing the exercises he teaches, I can stick my bike anywhere I need to. U turns are now on demand. If you ride with regular people all the time, try suggesting a practice with several of y'all and try out some of these techniques. When you pull up with 10 bikes and everyone puts their bikes together in a straight line and dismount at the same time, people can't help but watch in awe.
This video is a must watch. I have been riding for over 24 years. This channel has been a massive help! Parking an ultra classic is a breeze now! Thank you sir!! Preloading in Chicago 👊🏽
Great Job...We done this in school, Only different is the first rider would stay forward and the other riders will go behind. We stay on the bike until the final rider is in place and we back at the same time. Then dismount together.I taught this in a course and we pulled it off (Only once) on a lunch group ride.
Thank you so much! Been off the bike for about 4 years. Just purchased a HD heritage softail . Trying to practice everyday, depending on weather. Need confidence.
“Combat parking” - very apt description of always being ready to include the way you park your vehicles. Folks laugh at me for that approach. Trained that way so it’s tough to do any thing else. Always great tips Robert and blessings to you and yours. 🤜🏼
Good work again Robert! I just want to say thank you as I am 64 and overseas with the military (I teach) and I have been following your channel for about a year. I have worked my way through your course and am a much better and more confident rider as a result, and I first rode in the 1970's.

@@BeTheBossOfYourMotorcycle . Yes I am sir. I know I ride an electric bike. Built almost like a chopper. I'm the boss of my bike. I just wish the oncoming traffic would let me make my left hand turns without any problem. But no. I have to go to the corner, and make my turn. A right hand turn is no problem. I'm in my own lane. Out of everyone's way. I obey all traffic laws. I ride with traffic. I wear a helmet on my head. Goggles on my eyes. A reflector vest at night. And my headlight and tail light on. Sometimes they let me make my turn. And sometimes no. I guess they expect me to do the same as all the traffic law breakers, and do the same thing as them. Well I'm not going to. I follow the rules of the road. I use my hand signals for right, left, and stop. But I guess they don't know that anymore. But maybe. Just maybe. Once I get my direction turn signals installed. Hopefully that will change everything. At least I hope so. Maybe I should wear a sign, that says. I follow all traffic laws. Let me make my left hand turn. Don't hit me. And don't honk me. I have a horn too. I can honk back. Ride safe sir. I'll do the same. Carry on.
I rode a motorcycle about 35 years ago, recently I got a 1986 virago 1100. I’m a beginner as far as I am concerned. I watch many videos and have just discovered your videos, well done.

I’ve recently found this channel and have started incorporating these practices into my normal riding. It’s been super helpful at building a bit of confidence for someone who can’t flatfoot my bike. Now I need to take it the next level and start practicing in the evenings with cones in an empty parking lot.
Absolutley well done , there is nothing like being a Motor Cop . Paying attention to detail, keeping your skills up and taking pride in everything you do. Ask me how I know .
@@BeTheBossOfYourMotorcycle Dallas Texas PD Motors rode 20 years of the 28 in uniform. We had 45 bikes in the unit. I’m retired now for 10 years. I still ride my Harley’s. I’m 63. I still practice my turns. I watch your channel to keep skills up, it will keep you alive.
Thank you Robert! I’m a teacher/musician living in China and recently bought a newer bike (‘19 Suzuki GW250). It’s tiny compared what you ride but for me at 5’6 and 150lbs it’s fairly heavy and not the smallest bike. I found your channel and have been practicing with your voice in my head - while I’m in the middle of a u-turn I can hear you yelling “keep the rpm’s up! , stay in the friction zone!, rear brake!” and it always works! I’m going to make an audio recording for my practice sessions and take it with me. Soon my Chinese friends will be learning to be the bosses of their motorcycles too. I’m thankful for people like you and I’m going to pay it forward here. Be safe and continually blessed. 🙏🏼

my favorite way to park my bike is at a truck stop right up against an idling truck while the driver's asleep. i know no one will mess with my bike that way. a couple of my bike's have gotten run over that way but i still believe in the practice. on a serious note isnt it just easier if you have two spots open just to pull in to spot one ,u turn into spot two? then you only have to back up about 8 inches.
Another great video Robert thank you for sharing you always have great topics in them . Thank you so much for your Time, Instruction and product reviews. I have been riding off and on for about 15 years, and have found your tips and Instructions to be very helpful in improving my riding skills at slow speeds. Finding your channel a couple months before your first year on You tube has been a very worth while find.
So glad I found your channel, very informative and easy to understand. I'm an experienced rider but can Always use a tip or two, for me Life is about learning. Keep up the Great work.

I’ve been riding for 20+ years. Much of it on smaller displacement bikes and I developed some bad habits as well as some techniques not conducive to successively handling a large Harley Davidson bagger. But I would be better at parking a semi than my bike. I had scheduled to work with a local instructor when I purchased my big bagger, and he passed away from COVID. Then our Harley Dealership permanently closed. I felt like Karma had targeted me and won. Then I remembered how accomplished my best friend and husband is as a rider. I didn’t want to share my struggles, but I’ve got to use what I have to succeed. Thanks for your content, because I know nothing I learn is wasted.
Be careful if you follow the curb line in wet parking lots. I downed my ZX14r in a mist covered parking lot because the space I chose to turn and park in had an unseen hazard waiting for me: diesel fuel. A vehicle with a fuel leak used that space just prior to the light rain that was falling as I pulled in. Halfway through my turn at approximately 2-3mph the front tire instantly washed out. I held it up but the combination of a turned front wheel and residual momentum started to strain my left knee excessively so I let it down as easy as possible. End result: Knee - GTG; Ninja - $1500.00 worth of scraped fairings, mirror, lever, grip and pipe.
Your tip of parking a motorcycle in the front of a parking space is the best. Most put there bike in the rear and always worry about someone hitting it
Good video Rob. I always park my motorcycle that way. As you know I have a similar background in that I learned to ride a motorcycle being trained from the ground up in PD motor school as an officer. On or off duty riding your personal bike that's the best way to park a bike. For the civilian rider, (police too) visibility is of the utmost importance. You can see much more pulling out of a parking spot parked like this than you can duck-walking the bike backward into oncoming traffic out of the spot. I don't do a lot of group rides but in the few, I have done on my personal bike, I always find this is a skill that is largely lacking. A lot of people will pull in a spot "head first" and they'll look at me like "what are you doing?". You ride how you've been trained and just as important, how you PRACTICE or lack thereof so folks, get out there and practice! He just gave you the training objectives. Ride Safe!.
Great info! I’d be curious to see how you handle some other situations - like parking in the left aisle of a busy parking lot (I usually avoid this if possible), or in a parallel parking spot on a busy road. I always worry that cars behind me get confused when I turn left to back into a parallel spot on a street, or my nose will often be a little in the lane if I were to back straight in - especially if I stop early enough to not scrape my pipes on the tall curbs in LA (I also ride a Street Glide)
If you're on a taller bike like an ADV, you should also look out for gravel, sand, oil and dips at your chosen parking spot. The last thing you want to do is to slip or have your foot grabbing air while backing the bike in.
Thank you. It’s my pleasure. 😊 Thank you for watching and hopefully you’re subscribed to my TH-cam channel!👍🏾😊 th-cam.com/users/BeTheBossOfYourMotorcycle
Wanted to say hello to a fellow New Yorker, I have seen a few of your videos. I just got a Harley street glide special and it is a very big learning curve for me I’m getting off a street rocket (Kawasaki ninja). Wanted to see if I can pick your brain, because I live in Seattle and can’t make the classes
Just a couple items I would like to comment on. The demo shows the m/c way into the space. He mentioned to park near the front the space, only lightly. One wants to make the m/c visible to vehicles driving down the lane. In the State of California, ( not sure about other states) when parking on the street The rear wheel or fender needs to touch the curb. This law is heavily enforced in the beach cities. So if you're coming to California keep that in mind. If you have skirted fenders, or low saddlebags, might want to think about parking somewhere else .
Great information. How would you handle parking a group ride in a small downtown where the spots are all designed as 45-degree angled nose-in? A lot of parking lots down south are similar with one-way flow and 45-degree slots.
Great video Robert, I just stumbled upon you, I guess because I follow motorman but I love your videos and am a follower now! Love your bike, what year is it?
Hi mm maaan I think it will good for your intro videos to include the one when you dropped the bike...lol to show us that at the end of day....we are humans 😂
I don't enjoy riding motorcycles weighing over 300 pounds because parking them and moving them is too difficult. Years ago I owned a smaller Kawasaki Vulcan. It weighed 440 pounds. It could be pushed, and backing it while seated could be done. It was just a lot of work to do it. If a shoe lost traction while pushing it backward, there was always the chance that the motorcycle could fall in that moment. Doing such maneuvers on slopes was even more difficult. Riding scooters, mini-motos, and other light weight motorcycles is really more fun because there are no difficulties moving them around. It is why people who ride Groms for the first time say that they had more fun riding them than any other motorcycle they've ever ridden.
Regardless of whether I'm riding in a group or alone, in a packed parking lot or an empty one, I never park up against the curb. However, I've seen motorcycle clubs pull into a parking lot riding in single file as well as staggered and cruise in just like you did parallel to the curb, but instead of turning, they just stop perpendicular to the painted lines sometimes three or four abreast in each parking spot. Sometimes they do this out of necessity if a parking lot is full, but I've also seen it done as a courtesy which goes a LONG way to presenting a more conscientious and socially acceptable view of motorcycle clubs. Too often bikers and motorcycle clubs come off as owning the road, and nothing says, "Screw you!" like a bunch of bikers taking one spot per bike and making the four wheelers walk a marathon. Something to think about...
@@BeTheBossOfYourMotorcycle When the parking lot is packed already, there's really no other option other than parking perpendicular to the lines if you have a large club. If there's a bike in each spot and one on every line that doubles the capacity, but parking perpendicular easily quadruples the capacity. It also displays a sublime level of courtesy and common sense. A prime example of its efficiency is in noting the difference between an on-track start verses a Le Mans style start. In the former, we see the pack take off practically as a solid mass while the starts that begin with the bikes parked off to the side is a confused mess often accompanied by collisions. I can see how practicing improves the likelihood of something more ordered and coordinated, but for those clubs that are in the habit of having a few snorts at the bar before hitting their next stop, it might not make that much difference. I prefer the look because it reminds me of those tight formations flown by the Blue Angels. Then again, for those who like to admire shiny custom motorcycles it makes it difficult to gain access to those bikes in the middle of the pack. If two clubs show up at the bar simultaneously, the club that parked perpendicular will be downing their first drinks and getting their appetizers delivered while the other one is still parking.
I only needed to see someone go flying into an "open" parking spot one time (luckily they didn't hit my bike but it was close) to park at the FRONT of the parking spot. I want to announce to the whole world that spot is taken! I have no interest at all to see who gets cited when someone knocks my bike into a car then drives off. I've admin'd parking lot surveillance systems and let me assure you reading a license plate is no sure thing.
Love your videos. I know you're about riding two wheel motorcycles. How do you feel about Harley trikes and do you plan to do a course or review on them? I'm considering getting a trike due to knees.
Hey Keanon. Thank you for watching and hopefully you’re subscribed!👍🏾😊 I love trikes. I don’t know a lot about them, but if I was going to get one, it would definitely be a Goldwing. They are beautiful and you get way more for your money with one of them.
Awesome Video, just a question, how do you like the OEM CVO seat? Is it comfortable or do you usually swap them out? Thanks for your time and ride safe…..
Thank you very much! I got rid of that seat a long time ago. I actually did 2 videos on this subject. One was on this CVO Street Glide and the more recent one was on my CVO Road Glide.
Dude everyday I park my bike at work and cover it with a cover and people always park in my parking spot right behind my bike. Like wtf there is already a vehicle parked in here. There dumb they say well it’s covers up
@@BeTheBossOfYourMotorcycle definitely subscribed 😊 and yessir exactly the backing up part, would you just hop off and push it back? If so does it matter which side?
Good video and advice Robert and you wouldn't be wearing shorts and t shirt here in New Brunswick Canada maybe a snowmobile suit take care have a great week
Question; I parked at a local diner nose into spot because of incline (higher at nose than rear). I parked in the middle of spot because I don’t want the cars parked on either spot of me to have someone hit my bike while they open their car door. I happen to be on one of my bikes that has a center stand so I’m on that. While I’m inside diner I see another biker pull into my spot on his H-D an instead of being his front tire beyond my rear tire on right side he pulls right besides me and parks where now he’s in a position of either getting smacked by a car door and if he drops his bike it will knock over mine. I don’t mind sharing a parking spot but IMHO the right way of him parking would have been him diagonal of me with his front tire just beyond my rear tire. This way he’s not blocking my exit and if his bike drops he won’t take my bike with him. By the way he was a big dude and possibly a club member ( although he had no colors on) so me being a senior citizen I didn’t want to educate him in proper parking techniques. I guess what I’m saying first I thought his parking was inconsiderate and selfish. What do you think?
Thank you for watching and hopefully you’re subscribed to my TH-cam channel!👍🏾😊 th-cam.com/users/BeTheBossOfYourMotorcycle I agree with you. There’s etiquette and unspoken rules in almost everything. It’s called a social contract. Unfortunately not everyone lives by it.
Hello, I am a new rider, and practicing. You mentioned you always park in 1st gear, what's the reason or benefit of this. I asked the guy whom I bought the bike but he don't know, even someone told him to always park on gear.
Hi. Thank you for watching and hopefully you’re subscribed to my TH-cam channel!👍🏾😊 th-cam.com/users/BeTheBossOfYourMotorcycle It’s just so the bike is more secure and won’t roll.
@@BeTheBossOfYourMotorcycle I guess not really more difficult. You just have to backup at 270 degrees instead of 180 and your facing into oncoming traffic parking. But I do see your point.
I'm seventy four years old, and I've been riding since my early teens.
I had to sell my 2017 HD street glide, because of health problems, and weakness.

@@BeTheBossOfYourMotorcycle . Yes I am sir. I know I ride an electric bike. Built almost like a chopper.
I'm the boss of my bike. I just wish the oncoming traffic would let me make my left hand turns without any problem.
But no. I have to go to the corner, and make my turn. A right hand turn is no problem.
I'm in my own lane. Out of everyone's way. I obey all traffic laws. I ride with traffic. I wear a helmet on my head. Goggles on my eyes. A reflector vest at night. And my headlight and tail light on.
Sometimes they let me make my turn. And sometimes no. I guess they expect me to do the same as all the traffic law breakers, and do the same thing as them.
Well I'm not going to. I follow the rules of the road. I use my hand signals for right, left, and stop.
But I guess they don't know that anymore. But maybe. Just maybe. Once I get my direction turn signals installed.
Hopefully that will change everything. At least I hope so. Maybe I should wear a sign, that says. I follow all traffic laws. Let me make my left hand turn.
Don't hit me. And don't honk me. I have a horn too. I can honk back.
Ride safe sir. I'll do the same. Carry on.
I rode a motorcycle about 35 years ago, recently I got a 1986 virago 1100. I’m a beginner as far as I am concerned. I watch many videos and have just discovered your videos, well done. I like the way you explain exactly what you are doing and why! It helps! Keep up the good work and I will be watching many more of your videos. Ride safe and enjoy each and every ride!

I’ve recently found this channel and have started incorporating these practices into my normal riding. It’s been super helpful at building a bit of confidence for someone who can’t flatfoot my bike. Now I need to take it the next level and start practicing in the evenings with cones in an empty parking lot.

Thank you Robert!
I’m a teacher/musician living in China and recently bought a newer bike (‘19 Suzuki GW250). It’s tiny compared what you ride but for me at 5’6 and 150lbs it’s fairly heavy and not the smallest bike. I found your channel and have been practicing with your voice in my head - while I’m in the middle of a u-turn I can hear you yelling “keep the rpm’s up! , stay in the friction zone!, rear brake!” and it always works! I’m going to make an audio recording for my practice sessions and take it with me. Soon my Chinese friends will be learning to be the bosses of their motorcycles too. I’m thankful for people like you and I’m going to pay it forward here.
Be safe and continually blessed. 🙏🏼

my favorite way to park my bike is at a truck stop right up against an idling truck while the driver's asleep. i know no one will mess with my bike that way. a couple of my bike's have gotten run over that way but i still believe in the practice. on a serious note isnt it just easier if you have two spots open just to pull in to spot one ,u turn into spot two? then you only have to back up about 8 inches.
Sure you can do that. Definitely not the easier way to do it.
Another great video Robert thank you for sharing you always have great topics in them . Thank you so much for your Time, Instruction and product reviews. I have been riding off and on for about 15 years, and have found your tips and Instructions to be very helpful in improving my riding skills at slow speeds.

I’ve been riding for 20+ years. Much of it on smaller displacement bikes and I developed some bad habits as well as some techniques not conducive to successively handling a large Harley Davidson bagger. But I would be better at parking a semi than my bike. I had scheduled to work with a local instructor when I purchased my big bagger, and he passed away from COVID. Then our Harley Dealership permanently closed. I felt like Karma had targeted me and won. Then I remembered how accomplished my best friend and husband is as a rider. I didn’t want to share my struggles, but I’ve got to use what I have to succeed. Thanks for your content, because I know nothing I learn is wasted.

Be careful if you follow the curb line in wet parking lots. I downed my ZX14r in a mist covered parking lot because the space I chose to turn and park in had an unseen hazard waiting for me: diesel fuel. A vehicle with a fuel leak used that space just prior to the light rain that was falling as I pulled in. Halfway through my turn at approximately 2-3mph the front tire instantly washed out. I held it up but the combination of a turned front wheel and residual momentum started to strain my left knee excessively so I let it down as easy as possible. End result: Knee - GTG; Ninja - $1500.00 worth of scraped fairings, mirror, lever, grip and pipe.
Your tip of parking a motorcycle in the front of a parking space is the best. Most put there bike in the rear and always worry about someone hitting it
Thanks
I really enjoy your video's. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!
I would like to wish you a wonderful holiday season from Mississippi with love 💕

Good video Rob. I always park my motorcycle that way. As you know I have a similar background in that I learned to ride a motorcycle being trained from the ground up in PD motor school as an officer. On or off duty riding your personal bike that's the best way to park a bike. For the civilian rider, (police too) visibility is of the utmost importance. You can see much more pulling out of a parking spot parked like this than you can duck-walking the bike backward into oncoming traffic out of the spot. I don't do a lot of group rides but in the few, I have done on my personal bike, I always find this is a skill that is largely lacking. A lot of people will pull in a spot "head first" and they'll look at me like "what are you doing?". You ride how you've been trained and just as important, how you PRACTICE or lack thereof so folks, get out there and practice! He just gave you the training objectives. Ride Safe!.
I would like to wish you and yours a wonderful holiday season

Very good thanks Robert. God bless😎
Thank you very much!
Great info! I’d be curious to see how you handle some other situations - like parking in the left aisle of a busy parking lot (I usually avoid this if possible), or in a parallel parking spot on a busy road. I always worry that cars behind me get confused when I turn left to back into a parallel spot on a street, or my nose will often be a little in the lane if I were to back straight in - especially if I stop early enough to not scrape my pipes on the tall curbs in LA (I also ride a Street Glide)
Thanks! The situation will always dictate what and how we do what we do. 👍🏾
Excellent video as usual
Thank you very much!
If you're on a taller bike like an ADV, you should also look out for gravel, sand, oil and dips at your chosen parking spot. The last thing you want to do is to slip or have your foot grabbing air while backing the bike in.
Correct. Actually, you should be looking for that regardless of the kind of motorcycle your riding. 👍🏾

Wanted to say hello to a fellow New Yorker, I have seen a few of your videos. I just got a Harley street glide special and it is a very big learning curve for me I’m getting off a street rocket (Kawasaki ninja). Wanted to see if I can pick your brain, because I live in Seattle and can’t make the classes
Hello. Thank you for watching and hopefully you’re subscribed!👍🏾😊
Just a couple items I would like to comment on. The demo shows the m/c way into the space. He mentioned to park near the front the space, only lightly. One wants to make the m/c visible to vehicles driving down the lane. In the State of California, ( not sure about other states) when parking on the street The rear wheel or fender needs to touch the curb. This law is heavily enforced in the beach cities. So if you're coming to California keep that in mind. If you have skirted fenders, or low saddlebags, might want to think about parking somewhere else .
Thanks for sharing that. I hope those curbs are low.
On a Roadglide, you are always in profile mode.

The main reason for backing in is safety. Your vision isn't obscured when you pull out.

I have a habit of leaving it in neutral but I’m in Florida, we’re flat land here. I can see how it can be a issue if the ground isn’t level.

Great information. How would you handle parking a group ride in a small downtown where the spots are all designed as 45-degree angled nose-in? A lot of parking lots down south are similar with one-way flow and 45-degree slots.
I would park at that angle. 👍🏾
I would like to take this opportunity to wish you and yours a wonderful holiday season
Love from DeKalb Mississippi USA 🇺🇲
Thank you very much! Likewise my friend. 👍🏾
I was a valet in the 80s. I back in my cars and my bagger.every day if the incline is too steep I try anyway it’s good for my legs…
Keep the front tire visible to other vehicles who may try to pull into the place you have parked in.
HAPPY HOLIDAYS to everyone hope you are doing well God bless from Mississippi
Thank you very much! Likewise.
Great video Robert, I just stumbled upon you, I guess because I follow motorman but I love your videos and am a follower now! Love your bike, what year is it?

I don't enjoy riding motorcycles weighing over 300 pounds because parking them and moving them is too difficult. Years ago I owned a smaller Kawasaki Vulcan. It weighed 440 pounds. It could be pushed, and backing it while seated could be done. It was just a lot of work to do it. If a shoe lost traction while pushing it backward, there was always the chance that the motorcycle could fall in that moment. Doing such maneuvers on slopes was even more difficult.
Riding scooters, mini-motos, and other light weight motorcycles is really more fun because there are no difficulties moving them around. It is why people who ride Groms for the first time say that they had more fun riding them than any other motorcycle they've ever ridden.

Regardless of whether I'm riding in a group or alone, in a packed parking lot or an empty one, I never park up against the curb. However, I've seen motorcycle clubs pull into a parking lot riding in single file as well as staggered and cruise in just like you did parallel to the curb, but instead of turning, they just stop perpendicular to the painted lines sometimes three or four abreast in each parking spot. Sometimes they do this out of necessity if a parking lot is full, but I've also seen it done as a courtesy which goes a LONG way to presenting a more conscientious and socially acceptable view of motorcycle clubs. Too often bikers and motorcycle clubs come off as owning the road, and nothing says, "Screw you!" like a bunch of bikers taking one spot per bike and making the four wheelers walk a marathon. Something to think about...
This would actually be 2 motorcycles per spot.
@@BeTheBossOfYourMotorcycle When the parking lot is packed already, there's really no other option other than parking perpendicular to the lines if you have a large club. If there's a bike in each spot and one on every line that doubles the capacity, but parking perpendicular easily quadruples the capacity. It also displays a sublime level of courtesy and common sense.
A prime example of its efficiency is in noting the difference between an on-track start verses a Le Mans style start. In the former, we see the pack take off practically as a solid mass while the starts that begin with the bikes parked off to the side is a confused mess often accompanied by collisions. I can see how practicing improves the likelihood of something more ordered and coordinated, but for those clubs that are in the habit of having a few snorts at the bar before hitting their next stop, it might not make that much difference.
I prefer the look because it reminds me of those tight formations flown by the Blue Angels. Then again, for those who like to admire shiny custom motorcycles it makes it difficult to gain access to those bikes in the middle of the pack.
If two clubs show up at the bar simultaneously, the club that parked perpendicular will be downing their first drinks and getting their appetizers delivered while the other one is still parking.
Always great info! 🎉
Hope you are having a great holiday season love from Mississippi USA 🇺🇲
Thanks brother!
I have a 2005 road king and the previous owner put a reverse on it. I can park anywhere now.

That giant engined BMW R18 transcontinental has some kind of electric backup assist
Yes it does. Thanks.
Great video
Thanks!
I only needed to see someone go flying into an "open" parking spot one time (luckily they didn't hit my bike but it was close) to park at the FRONT of the parking spot. I want to announce to the whole world that spot is taken!
I have no interest at all to see who gets cited when someone knocks my bike into a car then drives off. I've admin'd parking lot surveillance systems and let me assure you reading a license plate is no sure thing.
True, if you're between two larger vehicles than someone may not see your bike tucked in against the curb.
Awesome ride safe and enjoy
Thank you very much!

How can you activate the steering lock if you don't turn the handlebars to the side?
Question; I parked at a local diner nose into spot because of incline (higher at nose than rear). I parked in the middle of spot because I don’t want the cars parked on either spot of me to have someone hit my bike while they open their car door. I happen to be on one of my bikes that has a center stand so I’m on that. While I’m inside diner I see another biker pull into my spot on his H-D an instead of being his front tire beyond my rear tire on right side he pulls right besides me and parks where now he’s in a position of either getting smacked by a car door and if he drops his bike it will knock over mine. I don’t mind sharing a parking spot but IMHO the right way of him parking would have been him diagonal of me with his front tire just beyond my rear tire. This way he’s not blocking my exit and if his bike drops he won’t take my bike with him. By the way he was a big dude and possibly a club member ( although he had no colors on) so me being a senior citizen I didn’t want to educate him in proper parking techniques. I guess what I’m saying first I thought his parking was inconsiderate and selfish. What do you think?

Hello, I am a new rider, and practicing. You mentioned you always park in 1st gear, what's the reason or benefit of this. I asked the guy whom I bought the bike but he don't know, even someone told him to always park on gear.
Hi. Thank you for watching and hopefully you’re subscribed to my TH-cam channel!👍🏾😊 th-cam.com/users/BeTheBossOfYourMotorcycle
It’s just so the bike is more secure and won’t roll.
there should be a product that makes the front wheel electric so that it can do a reverse.
How about on the many angled parking spaces? I have found it difficult to back into those.
Why would it be more difficult to back into an angled parking spot?
@@BeTheBossOfYourMotorcycle I guess not really more difficult. You just have to backup at 270 degrees instead of 180 and your facing into oncoming traffic parking. But I do see your point.
