Once you get your skill high enough, the bike becomes irrelevant! I have an entire playlist on low-speed turns as well as 4 books and an app with drills for you to practice! :) MotoJitsu.com/shop
Watching a 800lb harley do this is a thing of beauty. To all the guys that say their bike is too heavy or too big, you ar proving the opposite 🤘🏽
:) just excuses for people who can't ride
I loved your laidback reaction as the old Harley scraped whilst you were doing some of those tight turns. The master at work. ;)
:)
We drag our floarboards on our police road kings so much that it grinds the edges of them into razor blades. It even starts to grind away the floarboard brackets. You've got a lot more lean than what you're demonstrating in this video. You might check with the owner before you go that far though :). We can usually cut a U-turn in about one and half parking spaces if you start on the line.
Yup, not my bike. I’m not going to grind away the thing when he’s trying to sell it.
Even the owner is learning how much his bike is able to safely lean and I truly believe he consider to be a privilege to watch his bike being used in this teaching demonstration that even you are getting benefited to watch .
I mean, he just did a u turn in only 1/2 space more, so I don’t know about ‘a lot more lean’. More? Yeah, but a lot more? that’s not too bad.
4-5 feet is a lot of space when you’re doing tight cone drills. I was just trying to say these fat pigs will really dance if you dip them hard. Real world scenarios would be like cutting a u-turn on a super narrow road that crowns in the middle. You have to stand it up a little to get over the crown and then dip it hard so that you don’t run off the road. It’s too heavy of a bike to duck walk it around if you don’t have to. Mine is a work bike so it gets thrashed. I probably wouldn’t ride as hard if I had my own personal Harley just due to the wear and tear.
I just recently started watching your video's after seeing you on one of Jerry "Motorman" Paladino's video's. I really enjoy the video's and your expertise and perspective on riding. I've been riding since I was 8 years old and I was a MSF Instructor for 20 years and taught the Basic and Experienced rider's courses. It's great to have guys like you, Jerry and Kevin from "MCRIDER" passing on their expertise and skills. Looking forward to more video's!
Thanks :)
you can lift that leg or, just stand tall on the right floorboard with the right foot and swing the left. Sooooo much easier on a bike like that.
I don't like doing that
if you stand on the right floorboard and the bike tips over, you deserve it.
Watching a Jedi at play.. That complete stop without your feet touching the ground did it for me.. Respect 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
❤️👍🏼
Wow a thing of beauty watching you move that bike
:)
great movie, I remember the first time i had to get on and ride my electric glide, so i had to relearn to focus where i was going and point the bike where needed to go. So i learned the the bike went where I was looking which was kind of cool
thanks
@@MotoJitsu please cover emergency braking while attempting to avoid a car, frequently the rider ends dropping the bike, and general visual awareness at junctions,
Try mounting the bike like the police do from the non-kickstand side. Step up on the floor board with the right foot and swing the left leg over the seat and sit down. It is so much easier and you will look like you know what you are doing.
@@davidkeeton6716 You've never watched the California Highway Patrol motorcycle police get on and off of their bikes before. They wont dismount on the side of traffic. Motorman has a video on this.
I don't like doing that.
Superb demo. That's a beast of a bike. Never rode a harley before, my usual bikes are sports or sports tourers. Thanks for your time making these vids.
The Tartan Biker
😎🏍🤜🏻🤛🏻
thanks
Absolutely beautiful dance 💃🏼 💯👍🏻I get refined mentally every time I’m on my RG . We are all a work in progress…
thanks
Love your videos with slow speed maneuvers on the harley.
Glad you like them!
I Love the double cam here. double the perspective💖💖👏🏼👏🏼
:)
its amazing how tight turns you can take with it
As long as you keep em balanced you don't really feel the weight. If you can get it off the kickstand you can probably ride it.
Try mount and dismount from the high side lije the cops do. It’s way easier .. won’t scratch up the hard bags with your boots and easy to get around the backrest etc
I don't like doing that.
Damn! Whenever that thing cranks, I feel as though it chews up a couple of gears in the process. Thump!
:)
Pretty good mate, you just need to improve the mounting technique. All the best and greetings from New Zealand mate
Great content! Keep up the good work and I'll keep practicing!
thanks!
Thats how i get on my goldwing, nice to see im not the only one, the struggle is real
:)
Wish I could "lend" you my Honda Goldwing DCT so I could see you do all that on it. Slow maneuvers are the one place I still struggle with the DCT. Would love to see the master do it so I know it can still be done without the clutch. Would think it would be easier, but I am not there yet.
I’ve done that too…on the exact bike. I have a playlist of me riding scooters and an electric bike…all the same. Throttle control and rear brake abs lean angle
Awesome as always. I need more videos cos I have a Boulevard M800. Thanks
thanks
This is AWESOME, thank you!
Must be a good friend if it's OK to scrape floorboards ! I wouldn't do it on somebody else's. Pisses me off when I do it on mine !
Yup, he didn't care.
Very nice! Just a fun little lean and turn video.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Wow, what crazy skill and low speed control 🤙
thanks
It’s like motorized poetry.
:)
I’m impressed!
That is some impressive and confident riding skill. Cudos to you
Thanks for watching & commenting! ❤️MotoJitsu.com for my app, books, merch, discounts, etc. 👍🏼
I know you’ve done all the how to videos but I would love to see new videos on how to do these drills and new videos on previous topics
Same techniques
This is incredible, what a master
:)
Moto .. for the big Bikes .. mount the bike on the right side... Step on right floor board and left foot over.
go for it.
I was expecting some commentary of the different seating position -- the reclined cruiser posture and brake \ floorboard location versus sitting upright with the pegs located directly below. I switched to a cruiser last year (Guzzi 2016 Eldorado) after 4 decades of ridding 'upright' and it's definitely a different feel and experience. Bracing for rough road surface by putting one's weight on the pegs up isn't the same and the relaxed riding position gives me less confidence for the unexpected, but this will come with getting some miles down. I enjoy your vid's - Stay upright and avoid sudden obstacle's!
Doesn’t matter. Clutch, throttle, rear brake, lean angle
@@MotoJitsu Yeah yeah yeah the concepts are all the same but not acknowledging there’s a distinct change in position, and the fact you can’t stand directly on the pegs anymore made me feel like your response was expedient …I guess if you’re not acknowledging that ..then that’s your perspective. To me it’s analogous to going down on a hill on skis versus a toboggan.
Don't need to stand on the pegs or use your legs at all.
@@MotoJitsu So, when you see a significantly deep pot-hole that you can’t avoid ..you don’t brace for the impact by getting your weight off the seat and up on the pegs? I certainly do and have figured out how to adapt that adjustment with the “feet forward” floorboards. Taking the full impact in the lower spine is something I want to avoid.
So now you switched from talking about foot location to potholes? If you have time to stand up, sure...but on a cruiser, you probably wouldn't do that...that's what suspension is for.
Nice video.
I never understood the fascination with an oversized, overweight and obnoxiously loud motorcycle that gets shitty mileage and costs as much as a car!
That being said, you're very skilled.
thanks
Only 40 some mpg!
I dreamed of seeing the HD company launch a motorcicle in a cc below than 1.500. That is only 850cc, if I understood.
I don't know
Very good job! Now I just feel to buying one! Just wandering if it worth it to pay much more for a recent one to get the ABS and Traction control for safety???
those things don't have anything to do with safety...safe is a combination of actually knowing how to ride and having good judgment.
ABS is a great training tool for maximum braking drills and a great backup if you have a panic moment in real life riding. No substitute for good road strategy and regular skills practice but if you can get ABS with your next bike, I would.
Bravo, well done…
thanks
Awesome control.
thanks
I have a similar bike and am 5 ft tall I could really use some help with parking on this bike especially in lots with different grades. Thanks
I don't know how much this will help, but i guess a useful trick i saw somewhere (maybe on this channel) is if you wanna back it up, but it's too heavy/sloped/bumpy then:
hold the front break, push on the bike so the front suspension goes down, and before the suspension bounces back, release the front break and use that momentum to start pulling it back.
@@NthMetalValorium oh cool so you get some momentum I will try that thank you 🙏
I don't park on any slopes, ever. No need to.
@@MotoJitsu thank you ! Sometimes when we ride with others and they all park together I drive to my own spot to where I am comfortable but sometimes I feel the pressure real or imagined from the other riders wondering why I can’t handle my bike. I can ! I ride well and I practice which I know they don’t. Thanks for this I will continue to park and ride my own ride ! Your the best !
I bet you could get tighter turns if you get your body to the inside of the turn. This way the effective lean angle can increase after the bike’s lean angle is maxed out.
That’s not true at all
That could make the turns faster, not tighter.
@@MotoJitsu the math works out in my head, that's why I said "I bet". There could be real world factors that determine otherwise, but logically it should work.
More lean angle lets you go tighter at the same speed or faster for the same corner radius, right? So at max moto lean, getting your body into the turn increases the effective lean of bike and rider, so you should get a tighter turn at the same speed. What's the flaw in my reasoning?
@@thedownwardmachine That won't work during low speeds if the bike is already at maximum steering lock. It can't turn any tighter due to steering geometry, not because of a limitation in centripetal force caused by hitting max lean angle.
why not stand on left foot rest to get up and right leg over ?
what?
I don't know if I'll buy a Harley ever. Street fighter then adventure bike are the next sequence of bikes I'll buy when I get older, amazing job riding tho. I think they're overpriced underpowered and not reliable
Never say "Never". Also, those are all myths. I used to be you and now I own an older Harley just like the one in the video.
Overpriced yes, reliability is hit and miss depending on bike and how you ride.
I've never had issues with any of mine. They're very reliable.
As far as touring bikes go they are competivley priced with honda and bmw and just as reliable
Started with a R6, then a panigale, over to a monster and then a Triumph Thunderbird Storm which was a 180 for me but it was the best Of both worlds and great on long trips. Now I got a Night rod Special to share the garage with it. Never had a problem with any of my bikes and always maintained them as on point as possible. I kept the Thunderbird and Night rod and the T bird is at 23k and vrod I got it to 26k. Never say never haha
Awesome!
:)
That is awesome.
thanks
How many miles on a highway you you get on the bike .
No idea, not mine
Nice 18 ft turns.
:)
Greg, what is your height, please?
5’9”
Is it good for beginner? I want to buy it like my first bike. I am 60 kiligrams and 1.70 cm
Ride what your comfortable on. Don't conform and try to follow the Billy badass crowd .
yup...do whatever you want...don't care what anyone says
@@MotoJitsu Ive had them all , Trust me ride what feels good
Road kings are 850. Those are 950 plus
On a good day I could do that on my ninja 250 lol
:)
Anything that heavy not fun anymore. It's like walking a tight rope riding an elephant.
That's what makes it all the more fun.
lol it's not heavy.
Useless comment. Electra glides are pretty easy once you get the bike moving. Low center of gravity helps a lot. Not everyone wants a sport bike. I know I don't standing almost 6'8
Nnnnnnnnnnice. Thank you much.
You're welcome 😊
You're gonna need to buy your friend a new kickstand and floorboards if you keep dragging them.... then you'll find out why Harley riders ride stiff lol HD stands for hundred dollars
lol na
Does look like a heavy arse bike
doesn't feel like it
@@MotoJitsu lots of low down weight isnt it, once moving its all good
Imagine driving this thing on bad Indian roads.
yeah, it is not designed for indian roads anyway. This bike wouldn't survive Indian potholes
Thanks for watching and commenting!
850 lbs. No sorry, pre 2014 ultras came in at about 900 lbs dry weight add fl u id's your looking at 930 lbs. Baggers are ok I own an Electra glide, it's like slow dancing with a fat girl it's not that much fun!
That's exactly why, at age 77, I'm very much enjoying my 2018 Kawasaki Ninja 400 KRT ABS - lightweight, agile, powerful and fast enough, great mileage, and - I get to play with ALL the gears, not just one or two. More smiles/mile!
that's what Google says..either way...don't really care
So not a fan of Harleys.
then don't buy one lol
@@MotoJitsu lol don't worry I won't, they're overpriced lol
that type of bike is bad for extreme leaning.
No bike is “bad”
I do not get what you you want to show with this? What you are very good? Looks like like you do not like the motorbike you ride. Like a teen age who trained very hard to show off. Please do not ride the bike which you do not like. Ride the the bike you like. Thank you.
Hes showing that with enough practice skill transcends the bike. If you put in the time you can lean and ride any motorcycle like another and its great because in a worst case scenario issue you can the confidence and skill to save yourself. That and its fun
WTF?
Thanks for watching and commenting!
Nothing wrong in showing his skills and sharing his knowledge with ppl. His entire channel is about doing that, so that u can learn, for free! Its like watching a good movie and telling the actor not to perform well. Dont u find urself absurd?
