    I'm always amazed at the number of people who have been riding bikes for 20+ years and still have no idea how to actually maneuver their bikes properly. Listen folks, anyone can ride a bike in a straight line at speed, the bike (and science) does all the work for you. Maneuvering your bike at slower speeds, weaving around things, doing u-turns etc isn't easy and takes practice. If you can't take any of Jerry's courses in person, watch the videos, get some cones (or beer cans, whatever) and set them up and practice practice practice.

    Awesome inspiration for small women who want to ride but who may feel intimidated. This goes to show that with the right skills and practice, a motorcycle can be as fun and safe as a bike was when you were a kid
    MM you and Donna really have saved more lives than you realize.
    As for Megan the mom/lawyer\biker... Keep on inspiring other women to get their wind therapy on! I hope you do a cross country ride video one day

    Meg came to the course with no predetermined mindset, which allowed her to absorb what was being taught. Most experienced riders come "knowing" they know how to ride. Ego is a guys worst enemy. I've been riding 36 years and found some things are hard to reprogram in my riding style lol.

Hasd an incident just like in MEAN STREETS, a car pulled out in front of me from the left side of the street after they had received their food order from a curb side pick up. There were two other lanes to my right full of dinner time traffic in this college town. Without hesitation I looked swerved and dipped around the negligent driver, safely back into my respective lane! I thanked God for my success and then you! Merry Christmas and a Blessed New Year...

    I"m glad she got down to see you. I recommended you but of course so did so many others. She's very talented and it's hard not to be envious of that talent and being open minded about learning. I believe that is what gets you over the fear factor. I started watching her, yes she is very pretty but she's determined to make it no matter what. Thanks for taking the time to help her out. I wish there were more of you to share this teaching. It's been over a couple of years and I know I have lost some of that technique just because of not keeping my eyes and head turned. I believe you have to go over and over daily as you have said many times. Again, thanks for the videos and thanks for sharing.

      These techniques are the same in all motorcycle classes, especially ones taught by current and former motor officers. Head-Eyes, Friction-Zone mastery, Engine RPM's and Body Positioning. You cannot master low-speed or even high speed riding without these. But some teachers are much better than others so maybe going to FL to learn from him would be worth it.

    A good instructor with patience is so important.Some instructors have no patience,and seem to expect you to master riding a bike as soon as you get on it.Everyone is different.Some get it straight away,especially clutch control,which seems to be the major issue with beginners and some need plenty of lessons to do things like slalom and figure of eight training.Even the U turn and stopping can still give experienced riders problems.I’ve seen it with my own eyes.A good instructor with patience will make learning fun and not an ordeal👍🏍

    She just made a whole lot of men very jealous. And now a healthy dose of surviving the Mean Streets. Also covering your brakes and object fixations and don't right above your capabilities and the bikes capabilities.

    Really wish I lived a couple thousand miles closer. My wife has zero experience on a motorcycle. She took a BEGINNER course last summer, felt embarrassed because she couldn't get the hang of it and left. I don't think that would have happened in Jerry's class, especially when he purposefully goes out of his way to show what people CAN do with patience and good instruction. Great channel Jerry.

    Hi Jerry, thanks so much for your videos. Quick question - when you say friction point, throttle and brakes on the u turn drills, do you mean keep the clutch at friction point and increase throttle and brakes as needed? Thanks again.

    • @motorman857
      @motorman857  3 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      It's 95% clutch and throttle/friction, zone and a bit of pressure on the rear brake. You are fluctuating the clutch within the friction zone. As you get better with the friction zone you can eliminate the rear brake pressure.

    Watched this again and i disagree with a statement that Jerry made when he said it doesn't matter how long you been riding, I feel like it does because we or I need to un learn alot of bad habits and relearn good ones , sometimes that can be a tall herdle to clear . Thanks for what you do Jerry . Meg did so good , really enjoyed this video.
