    I’m a physical therapist at a level 1 trauma hospital, working both the trauma ICU and floor. Please for all that is holy, wear your gear and don’t cheap out on it. I’ve seen people survive 80+mph wrecks with minimal injury fully geared, and had patients who will never walk again after a 20mph wreck wearing shorts and t-shirt. It will save your life and your skin (literally).

    The guy who high sided the BMW is a journalist who was doing a review of the new M1000XR, hence the camera angle. He admitted to turning off the traction control on a bike he had never ridden before. The new M1000 has 205hp and a shift cam, so once you get over 6000 rpm, that cam shifts over and its like a turbo kicking in. The rear tire started to spin and he high sided. As I recall, he had several broken ribs, a concussion and possibly a broken ankle.

      Thanks for the context, as a new rider I was really trying to understand what went wrong and how to prevent it, high side is such a scary crash for exactly the reasons shown here that I got a bit emotional thinking this maybe wasn't his fault and just a risk to accept.
      205hp and rolling into the cam mid turn sounds terrifying, in the video, you can hear the bike revving up as the rear starts to slide before it catches again.

    @9:50 the youtuber Dodorshow says they were doing 45mph, The issue was caused by more than one factor: tyres were inflated 43-44 psi, he turned off TC and that the BMW M1000XR has a weird bump in the power delivery and at that speed it does like an old school turbo boost. He had broke his collar bone and fractured multiple ribs, concussion and more than a week long in hospital. He is a hungarian motorcycle riding instructor. I suggest a collab :)

The skills I developed from crashing, almost crashing, and having near misses like the one of the supermoto guy in this video, as well as years of pushing the bike and myself to the limits every time I went riding is something amybody who starts on the street will rarely ever acquire.

    love your videos/breakdowns, my first ride i got the bike and was riding and it was raining out. I hit the brakes a little to hard, then balanced the bike back and had to hard brake again and stopped the bike but it landed on my ankle, sprained my ankle, was off of it for about a week, but learned from my mistake and been doing much better, riding everyday (that it's not raining out) but i was forced to ride in the rain as i was already out and heading back home. Did fine, went a little slower than the speed limit and kept even more distance between me and the car in front of me, roughly 3-5 car lengths is my normal distance so i think i was 4-6 car lengths while it was raining out.

    I have a question about covering the brakes. I just passed my MSF last week and the instructor said it’s a bad idea to cover the front brakes bc you will grab them too hard in an emergency. However, I hear a lot of other riders say it’s a good thing for safety reasons. What is your opinion and why? I’m completely new to riding so I’m not really sure

    • @MrBCRC
      @MrBCRC 2 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      For experienced riders covering the brakes reduces reaction time for those that have the skills to quickly setup (as in setup and squeeze) without losing the front. For an inexperienced rider theres the risk that you will will be too rapid and brake right past setup and wash out the front. On the flip side for a beginner rider resting a couple of fingers on top of the lever loosens your grip on the bars and improves your ability to manoeuvre the bike because you don't have a death grip on the bars. You'll fatigue less and be more nimble. If you practice heavy braking such that you develop good muscle memory for the set up part then the risk of grabbing them too hard disappears quite quickly. The trick is to practice breaking from different speeds and not just carpark speeds. Braking is very different when braking from 20, 40, 60 or 80 either kph or mph. You need to build up to and develop braking skills from all speeds. Practice only at 20 and you're going to be in trouble trying to stop quickly from 80.

      I’m going to put it down to personal preference. I find shadowing the brakes causes hand fatigue trying to hang onto the throttle with my weaker fingers. So I only do it when coming up to blind corners/intersections ect. Personally I think covering reduces the distance your hand needs to travel buys you a bit more reaction time and therefore a reduces the risk of over grabbing the brakes. The important thing which ever way you ride is understanding what progressive braking is. How preloading the brakes before squeezing mushes the tyre into the ground and increases your grip to then brake harder.
      Your msf instructor probably also told you not to brake in a corner. God forbid you ever encounter something unexpected in a corner(pothole). This is real life on real roads. Not riding in car parks at slow speed or on wide open highly visibility race tracks. As soon as your comfortable on the bike get some advanced training so you can unlearn the noob myths you have been taught.

  • @Rhomagus
    @Rhomagus 17 วันที่ผ่านมา

    4:14 Obviously going too fast for their skill level. Reaction time was way too slow. Didn't even apply the brake until the threat had passed, and the late panicked braking caused the shaking to begin with, which could've potentially lead to dumping the bike. Lucked out on that one.

      The new BMW M1000 XR is a very high powered machine, it uses the switch cam engine from the S1000RR which has over 200bhp.
      I suspect he turned off Traction control/Slide control... or maybe had it on its lowest setting.. then applied harsh throttle inputs mid corner which caused the rear end to step out.. then he panics, comes off the throttle the rear immediately grips again (while the steering is crossed up) which always causes a high side... and you often get thrown off the bike.
      How to avoid it? Dont switch off TC... or learn how to drift a motorcycle like Casey Stoner etc if your bike is set up to be able to do it. First option is obviously easiest by a huge margin. 😀
      If your bike has no TC/slide control then just avoid excess throttle inputs while leaning the bike... and learn to trade lean angle for throttle input
      Also look out for mid corner gravel or oil/fuel spills.
      Roads/corners/roundabouts near Fuel stations are notorious locations for diesel spillages due to trucks overfilling then sloshing it out at the first few corners... major problem for bikes, especially in wet climates.
