thanks for watching everyone! :) MotoJitsu.com for my new app!
You say don’t release the clutch fast but when you’re downshifting in the video you instantly release the clutch after your rev match.
If you go down more than 2 gears at speed isn’t it dangerous
I think you managed to become THE best source of motorcycle advice on TH-cam. Quality content + quantity of quality content + great watchability = you. Just an awesome job, I love what you're doing.
Thank you! Please keep helping me spread the word by sharing my videos!
He is great.
I absolutely agree. I have learned so much from Eddy!
Thanks!
I literally came down to the comments to type the same thing... Between your videos and "twist of the wrist" my overall riding level has improved drastically over a short period of time.
I gotta say, when you finally do rev matching right, it is very satisfying... lol. It sounds cool!
YES! lots of fun lol
It is a very satisfying sound.
Ya fount it very satisfying too and makes me happy at the same time..
10,000 miles into my riding adventure, I still can't figure it out. Hopefully this video will help.
A few times it felt like I was going to get thrown off the back lol
Yes that's what I love about it
Watching your videos has made me realise how much I don’t know, and the more I don’t know the less safe I am. So I will be taking advanced classes. Keep up the good work!
That's awesome Jay!! That's great to hear...so much to learn.
Jay Alexander same here
Good lawd. Same here. 😒🤣
I don’t think I’m ready to rev match I’ve been practicing using TH-cam videos and I’m not getting the best results. I’m hoping there is an advanced course in my area soon
@@ppa4998 - hey p pa, if ur still riding and u Njoy it, try these things that Greg demo'd and b4 u no it, u'll be more confident, and competent. Njoy the ride, and keep the shiny side up. 🙂👍🌈💜🌏
Bicycle guy is like "wtf" lol
Lol
Ikr😂
He’s probably just checking out the bike
I thought about that guy too lol
Lol...
Instructions unclear, scooter did a wheelie
Send help
ha!
That made me laugh out loud literally haha
😂😂😂
lol
lmao
This probably my favorite TH-camr to help explain and teach motorcycle techniques. Just straight up raw material well-explained. Not edits or anything crazy, yet manages to keep my attention every second. Much appreciated fast Eddie!
I’m a motorcycle instructor who makes TH-cam videos...there’s a lot of TH-camrs who ride motorcycles 😊
Outstanding instructional video. I started practicing rev matching with no front brake just to get the throttle,clutch snd shifter timing in sync. When I got comfortable with that series of motions I started rev matching and using the front brake. It was frustrating at first but I I began to acquire the feel for it and with the SV650 strong engine braking , rev matching and front brake application makes me feel I have even more control over the bike plus it is fun :)
This is by far the best down to earth MC instructional video channel on youtube! Great work!!!
Thank you so much DB!
The way you explained rev matching was so much more clear to understand. I’ve watched other people’s rev matching and was more confused afterward. You are very clear and knowledge able thorough on your videos. Thanks!
I'm glad, now go practice!
Thank you so much. I just tried to rev matched downshift. It works and makes the downshift on my bike much smoother. Previously, it was quite clunky to do the downshift. Now.... super smooth and the effort on gear pedal is much lighter too. Thanks so much.
welcome!
MotoJitsu.com for my new app, books, merch, etc.
This video has helped me understand downshifting the most. I realized I was letting the clutch out too fast.
Awesome!
wassup Eddie... thanks for all your help man, I have been riding all my life and watching you has helped me with things I have forgotten and of course things I didn't know in the first place. What I know for sure is that I am a better rider for watching your videos.
Thank you so much!
11/10 sounds effects
:)
Thank you so much for explaining this so well. I’ve watched tons of videos on rev matching trying to understand, but could not quite get it. This made it all come together, showing all the different ways to do it and hearing you say there’s no right or wrong. I kept feeling like I was doing something wrong by not rev matching. I’m still going to practice and see if I can’t learn it though.
You're welcome...time to go practice!
Dude I really hope you realize how amazing and insanely informative your videos are! (Your videos made my MSF course too easy for me 😜) Keep 'em coming man, love the channel!! 🤘
Thanks so much Josh! Please share with others!
Excellent video. No wasting time with musical intros and stuff. Straight down to the point. Helped me get it down to where I’m satisfied but still practicing
thanks :)
@@MotoJitsu no problem. Keep it up💯
Best video I've seen on Rev Matching yet. An you even covered no clutch up shifting. Outstanding
Thanks Russ!
Fast Eddie, yes this technique took awhile to master (like you mentioned, using the front brake while Rev matching) but worth the effort to practice! I just finished Total Control Level One again, and even though I knew what was coming, the instructors keep pushing my current skills to new levels. Just fantastic instruction! BTW, one of the instructors was a Marine also, so I was defineately in the No Bullsh@t zone!
hahaha that's awesome!! Good for you for going back! Such a great course!
Vid helped solve the mystery for me. Many mc vids on YT with helmet mount view show the throttle hand erratic, now I understand it's not erratic, its blipping. Thx FE🏁
YESS
i love what youtube offers me.
me too!
Hi MotoJitsu, surprisingly, I took quite well with shifting,I still need lots of practicing ,I think I expected myself to have real problems with,but,I was really pleased with my first practicing, I took to shifting Excellently for a beginner, however,these videos are crucial to me,to expert shifting ,thanks again friend 🙂🙂🙂
You’re welcome
Best explained tutorial to perform rev matching 😗
Thanks! Help spread the word and share the video :)
The fact that im actually doing this unconsciously is running me crazy, when I try do it my bike is screaming in pain
1. Hands down my favorite moto channel.
2. You're great at explaining things that seemed like a foreign language.
3. It amazes me that even 2 years later you STILL reply to people.
4. Really want to meet you so I can learn first hand.
Love the videos man, can't wait to reach black belt in motojitsu.
❤️👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
Been looking at so many videos and this is probably the best tutorial i’ve found yet. So you kinda have to pull the clutch in and rev simultaneously, then downshift, then release clutch; one solid quick motion
yup
Thanks for this. I heel & toe in my car all the time, but was just clueless on the right hand technique for the bike. Gonna practice in the garage right now!
Awesome!
Heel and toe all the time? Stop doing that to your daewoo.
I’m a new bike rider and I had no idea it was possible to upshift without any clutch input! Mind blowing 🤯 also extremely informative about downshifting effectively for every scenario.
:) sure is!
Thank you Sarah!!! It took me a minute to understand what was happening here... mind blown.. boom!!
I learned it was possible to do with a car as well, I’ve had some success but it’s much more difficult to get it right than on a bike.
As a cabinet maker, i have a HUGE array of tools in my shop. I have 4 different routers. Different ones for different jobs, all are woodworking, but having the knowledge of how to use the right tool for the right job is half the battle. This way of showing people safer, more effective riding is expert level and many won't comprehend it, but its beautiful for people wanting and willing to learn. Thanks so much!!
You're welcome!! :)

I've been trying to learn to properly rev match on my fz09 and I swear it's so difficult. Sometimes I get it perfectly, sometimes I jerk it around like crazy it's so frustrating. Thanks for the vid! This definitely is helpful
This is the first video I’ve watched and from there I started watching all your videos
Thanks 😊
I really appreciate how deep you go and much practical your videos are. When I looked for as many info as I could when I was complete beginner, I watched many motovlogs, but basically nobidy showed that much practical detals. Many gave only theory and did not show any example. Thank you for your videos.
Btw would you say that this Duke is good bike for touring for woman? I mostly mean if it is comfortable for longer trips. What does your gf say?
Thanks! It's mostly because people simply don't know or can't teach. I watch a lot of videos too and find many useless lol If you put a bigger windscreen on it, it would be a lot better...lots of wind with the little one. You could attach side bags too it otherwise you're limited to just a backpack, or strapping a bag to the rear seat.
Hey man, I'm not sure if I posted on this one or a different video; but, this is exactly what I was getting at when asking about showing right vs wrong, the part you did about proper vs improper, or vice versa, was freaking awesome! Thanks again and no need to reply, really appreciate all the work you put into all this and going to jump over onto the patreon site a little later and send over some support.
Thank you!!
People that want to get better at driving a manual car should watch this as well. Excellent explanation to understand the concept of rev matching.
Thanks!
Watching this made me realize I forgot how to do a "normal" downshift. I always rev match.
Be good at both :)
Yes for real I also do rev match I kinda forget that there is a Normal shifting also🤣🤣🤣
I didn’t even know you could downshift without rev matching 😂
Thank u sir, your explanation more easy for me to understand what was rev match for..👍
You're welcome!
On another topic I was practicing my white belt this weekend and was pleasantly surprised how much better my parking lot turns were with turning my head where I wanted to go. I was able to go from every other parking space to almost every parking space.
Exactly!! Head turns help out big time!
Great video! I agree with your comment about going out and trying the technique first before commenting. I watched this video a while ago and now I’m watching this again after having practiced, I noted a few things I didn’t pick up on the first time.
The BEST Rev Matching video on TH-cam ! Tbh i struggle with braking and rev matching at the same time ...correction at 8.25 you mean release the Clutch slowly not the Throttle , Sorry :)
thanks!
I had to practice this years ago when I watched your video on my semi-auto Honda Wave Dash 110cc for the sake of comfort. Downshifting was comically harsh for it, rev-matching solved made most of the experience smoother. (Note for anyone wondering: semi-autos have no clutch lever, but has a shifter. Holding the shifter down essentially was equivalent to pulling the clutch lever)
Due to the habit forming and carrying over to my new bike, still a small CC, GSX S150, you've practically saved my life many times over. Thank you Eddie.
Welcome!
Kapcai pun rev match ehh
Those clutchless manuals are tragic. Literally scary to downshift those horrible things.
@@Whitejesselink oh man you have no idea, the first gear tapped out at 25 kph. It was practically imperative to rev match it and everyone else wondered why I rode way smoother.
@@thenarrator1921 I was only on one once or twice from a friend's house that owned it to my house for some food. I didn't even think to try matching to be honest. Mechanical bull crap.
Hard to believe that's for kids. Could put you off riding all together
Eddy, I’ve been subb’d for a while. I’ve learned a great deal from you man. Thank you.
You’re welcome 😊
I love how the display on the bike looks like it's part of the lines on the side of the road. Perfectly alligned.
Haha me too. Extremely visually satisfying.
Thanks for a very informative video on down-shifting and rev-matching! Meanwhile, I wonder what advanced techniques the guy on the tricycle is practicing on the same road... :)
You're welcome
Trying so hard to get this 😭😔 just have to continue practicing I guess.thanks for the vid
Keep at it
I'm late watching this video, but I will be watching this video as much as I can before and after my MSF. Great information. I love your content and as somebody looking to get into riding, I thank you for this content!
thanks
I just subscribed to your channel. Im a newbie in clutching and i was confused if i really need to rev.. and now im glad i found this video.. i dont need to rev anymore. Thanks
Dude you got mad skills. Even an old foogy riding a RGS bagger can learn from your vlog. Thanks.
Thanks Bradley!
So well explained...
Sometimes its seems more safer to rev match when going into a conner at a relatively higher speed.
I actually don't even rev-match anymore, not even for the track...but I think it's good to learn how to do everything....just adds to your experience and knowledge base.
@@MotoJitsu Do you mind telling us why you stopped rev matching? Is it more efficient or safer not to do? I’m asking because I currently learn to rev match and thought it only has advantages.
@@MotoJitsu do you no longer Rev match and blip the throttle when lowering gears? If so why?
Perfect. Sounds beautiful on a cruiser with pipes too!
Thanks
you´re the best teacher I ve ever seen, what a way to explain bro !!!!! even a dog can learn from you :)
I dont use front brake while rev matching.. Now i know the reason why I'm still fast even when i downshift.. Now it would take me a while to master revmatching with front brake.. Still thanks for a great video sir.. It really help a lot...
Yes, the front brake is the key when slowing...most of the power is there :)
@@MotoJitsu thanks a lot sir.. Keep up the good work and ride safe..
You're welcome
Enujnai Cuartero o
@@MotoJitsu I would start breaking early and then hold the back brakes during the blip then reapply the front brake after the blip. Tomorrow I'm going to go sit on my bike and try that technique you just showed me... Thanks Fast Eddie... U keep me alive out there...
Hey man - you say to let the clutch out slowly always, but it looks like you’re letting it out pretty fast when you’re rev matching….is the clutch all the way out when you finish blipping the throttle, or is it only partially out and you continue to let it out more slowly after the blip?
Best vid on downshifting I've seen! Thanks again for another awesome vid! (Still wish it wasn't 20 min long)
Thanks!
You've taught my wife and I so much! Thanks!
Another fun way is to hold rpms when I pull in clutch wich you have to back off on throttle just a little so as not to over rev but then try to increase rpms so you are right where
You need the rpm when letting clutch back out. This is a continuation of my first reply I accidentally hit send. Anyway also sound cool
Many ways to do one thing.
Sounds good on my MT-07 🔊👏👏 real music 😀
:)
Need a Harley to really hear the blipping. Man I learned so much from your videos. Amazing how much I didn’t know and I now realize how important it is to practice things I thought I already knew well enough but didn’t. Thanks again for sharing
It says soldier girl but this is my wife’s iPad. I lost her in December after 25 yrs of a fun with her. She was in the army,we bought Harley’s together,we bought snowmobile’s. I only brought this up because it sounds like my comments are coming from a woman. I know what I say she probably would say too though. Her 03 low rider I’m going to keep forever. She would have loved watching and learning from you. She bought her bike brand new with her overtime money saving for a year without me knowing till her bike was in after ordering it. I was a lousy teacher. She definitely would have loved learning from you. I’m learning from you. Thanks. I’m John from Pa. Love the channel 👍🏻
This is a great explanation. I'm glad you get to the point instead of wasting time trying to look or sound cool.
Thanks!
I'll echo many others on here. By a mile the best on TH-cam. Hands down. I dont even watch the other's anymore. And I certainly have plenty to work on! And this makes it much easier to learn!
Thank you so much!
@@MotoJitsu Quick question though. I'll practice blipping in the am when I have a clear backroad, but can you blip the throttle clutchless? I can upshift no problem (former motocross racer, but new to street bikes and street riding), so learning something new everyday!
I wouldn't downshift without using the clutch.
How many fingers do You use on the clutch? 2, 3 or all four?
3
very nice explanation thank you!! been looking for the best tutorial for this topic!
the clearest explanation on this topic, anywhere!
Thanks 🙏🏼
is it bike dependent at all? I find clutchless upshift to be rough in 1st 2nd and 3rd.
Any bike
Doesn’t work on buell firebolt.. trust me.. always have to to clutch to shift
Well, one thing for sure my instructor didn't teach me was smooth throttle control. He just yelled "close the gas", and so I did, so I was dangling on the bike like on a pig rodeo.
hahaha
I really appreciate the way you clarify that this isn't necessary. I watched another one of your videos where you show people how to drag their elbow. I'm not interested, but I was impressed.
Full lock turns aren’t necessary either but they’re fun and learning how to drag knee or elbow is insanely beneficial.
I really like this video explaining rev matching it's a great and clear description. What is the purpose of engine braking is from a performance standpoint? I understand rev matching to drop gears into a corner to avoid upsetting the bike's balance or spinning the rear wheel. But since engine braking can only work on the rear wheel how can using it actually improve deceleration performance over brakes alone?
Engine braking is just rolling off the gas to slow down, just like taking your foot off the gas pedel of a car
MotoJitsu.com for my new app, books, merch, etc.
For me its cheaper to replace the brake pads than clutch or transmission.
or valves
Do it right and you should have less wear and tear on your brakes and no damage to your clutch or transmission; it’s like butter when you nail it.
Joe Moslemian i agree thats the whole point. I don’t like using the brakes unless I really have to
I always felt like I was missing something when rev matching and I was. When I rev match, I never used the brake, and your the first person I've seen on TH-cam explain that.
Sweet!
Thank you soo much Motojitsu for helping out 💯 Finally after a months and months of practicing I have learned it ❤️
you're welcome
Could you accidentally clutch wheelie doing this I been thinking of practicing this back tire bounced real bad once spooked me.
If you rev it too high and release the clutch too fast.
Yeah your vids explain everything best. I’ve learned a ton from you in less than a month of having my bike
thanks! over 400+ videos to go through!
Finally!! Someone who actually makes sense .Thanks Brother
I rev match on the track to use engine braking to assist in slowing the bike without getting wheel hop. Like you said, I do it on the street not just to practice technique, but because it's fun, sounds awesome, and makes me feel like a MOTOGP hero. I'd point out that there is a reason that more and more sportbikes now come standard with an "auto-blipper" as well as a quick shifter.
Yup, my new bike does too...it's fun but now I can't do it myself lol
You changed the whole game. I was clutchless upshifting all wrong. I was actually cutting the throttle to much and pushing the shift lever. That joint just sucks up into gear. Smooth as butter now.
Awesome!!
You are AMAZING, Thank You so much for all of your information and your help!!
Thanks for the tips, new rider here this helps a lot!
welcome
thanks so much for your time and effort, for me it's the best tutorial for throttle blipping, stay safe bruv
this made me feel a lot better about just shifting down normally and not rev matching. rev matching does sound nice though and seems like more fun so im eager to learn.my fear is not timing it right and releasing the clutch at the wrong time with the blip of the throttle and sending the bike flying LOL
Learn how to do it, doesn't mean you need it every time :)
Nice one Jits, this was really useful as a beginner, going out to try it now
Thanks a lot for this video. I've never heard of this before. I'm a new rider. But yeah I'll definitely be trying this. 😁
Amazing explanation, thank you!
Thanks!
Wow im so happy i saw this video.
Coz i didnt even know what rev match was before but i did notice when down shifting at high speed the bike slows and its like youll be thrown forward but i did the same thing he said without rev match. But ill try to practice rev match out of curousity
Just ease the clutch out slowly or it will buck forward.
In 1967 my mom converted a 1950 Ford flathead V8 school bus into a camper. Four speed with no syncros! She had to rev match every shift, up & down. (AKA double-clutching) In a car/truck you use neutral between each gear change (which you can't do on a sequential m/c gearbox).
Nice explanation (as always). I realized I know where you are. You are on that old road that runs parallel to sea world drive. I used to ride bicycles there with my kids when they were learning to ride. I am learning to ride an motorcycle now. I think I will go down there and practice-seems appropo.
Thanks :) Yes, it's a good spot
Yeah, rev-matching is most satisfying. One thing I never do though, is clutchless up-shifting. Sure, it's a good thing to know about and some practice at it really pays off when you break a clutch cable and have to get home, but I've always been wary of it in normal useage.
A PO of one of my bikes was a clutchless changer, unknown to me, and it wasn't long before the bike started jumping out of 2nd gear on acceleration. Eventual stripping of the gearbox revealed the dogs on 2nd had been rounded off and the other gears didn't look too good either.
:) true
am I the only one that thought the noise you made (down shifting) with your mouth was very convincing and actually helpful to understand? that was awesome.
lol!
th-cam.com/video/NOYdzX9NyCI/w-d-xo.html
Thank you so much for this video. Helped me improve a lot.
You're welcome!
That Voodoo-Jitsu @5:57 is something else..
👍🏼😊
Hey Fast Eddie...Thanks for this video on rev matching. Would you say it’s possible to accidentally wheelie while doing this? I’ve watched videos on how to wheelie specifically to try to avoid it, and as a beginner, the inputs look almost the same, except that rev matching has the downshifting part. Thanks for all your help.
Doubt it because rev-matching happens when you're slowing down/while you're braking...but you can do anything wrong and cause unknown results.
Thank you, I appreciate your work.
Best teacher. Period.
Rev matching has been working sometimes and other times not at all...almost gave up on the whole thing. So I just came across this video and I think it'll help a lot.
Now go practice!!!
@@MotoJitsu Everyday, sensei!
Hey eddie! Huge fan here, always following and using your tips, extreemly helpful!
Ive been Struggling with understanding how to enter a corner - clutch/gear/throttle wise...
Do i first clutch in, then release it slowly as i go through the turn - at the same time of releasing also giving throttle slowly and progressively?
Asking for a video might be too much, maybe an explanation?
Thanks! No, you don’t clutch the clutch, has nothing to do with cornering except for shifting. I have a playlist all about cornering that should help
Hey Fast Eddie, thanks so much for all your advice in your videos. Can I ask if the downshift actions are performed all at the same time or just very very closely together. I know it seems like I am overthinking it.
I find it easy to do this:
1. Simultaneously, clutch in, "roll on" portion of throttle blip, tap down gear. While letting clutch out do the "roll off" portion of throttle blip, so my clutch lever and throttle are essentially going back to rest at the same time and an equal rate. In my head this equates to doing everything at once.
I find it harder to do this:
2. Sequentially and very quickly, clutch in, tap down gear, complete both "roll on" and "roll off" of throttle, then release clutch lever. This way the clutch is engaging when my throttle is almost back to a neutral position and it is essentially catching the fall in RPM from the blip. In my head this feels like following a 1-2-3-4 sequence and feels much more like I am making errors.
Which of these should I be doing? Thank you!
Those aren't the only two options...just go practice more...work out the timing on your own, see what works and what doesn't work
@@MotoJitsu Thanks, I followed your advice and did some more practice and found it is now flowing well for me, I feel much more confident now!!
Nice video! Love it! But still sad my unit still not arrive, covid-19 slows down everything. Anyway keep on waiting and practice to follow soon!
thanks :)
You do a great job at teaching thank you,
❤️👍🏼
Brilliant, thanks a lot mate
Thanks again. Now I finally get it.
Excellent vid!
thanks
Love that your helping us all
