I got pulled over for popping a wheelie on my R6 in a residential area (young and dumb). The first thing the officer said to me was, "Thanks for stopping." Since the confusion was very obvious on my face, he clarified that people on those types of bikes almost always run. But with all my paperwork being in order, he gave me a warning for a stop sign violation.

I was lane splitting illegally and at 70 in a 50, on a congested 1 lane road on my r3. Like 4 cars in, I saw a cop. Got past him and immediately hit the shoulder. He lights up as I pass him and turned them off as I pull over. He speeds off. We both continue on our way. If you're not smuggling smelly drugs or driving at ridiculous speeds cops are cool. Save yourself the evading charge and just talk to them. Been pulled over for no eyewear/helmet before I got my endorsement and the cop didn't even ask about the endorsement. Just a ticket for the helmet. I think they get the danger/adrenaline rush too and respect bikers if you respect public safety and them.
I got pulled over by police when doing a wheelie on my mt07 in Finland. The police asked "whats gonna happen now" and I said youre gonna take my license.😅 He checked my files, gave the license back and said dont be stupid and just left😄

@@sglynn0326Honest to God, there are times where even when lane splitting is illegal (in waaay too many states, like Jfc why) it damn near is unavoidable to have to be performed.
Me and my riding buddy had to lane split to at a street light to get on the street out of a gas station, first time I've ever done that, and glad we did because otherwise we wouldnt have been able to get out for at least 10 min.
How the hell there's that much traffic at 7-8 o'clock on a Thursday night is beyond me. 😮💨
I sat on my new bike for 45 minutes before I got out of my own head and said " fk it" got out on my low traffic roads and absolutely enjoyed my first ride. Stay focused but get out of your head and just do it in a safe environment. That was 3 weeks ago. I've had a couple of really great short rides since then that absolutely boosted my confidence and I started to understand the mechanics that yammy and other guys were talking about. Im learning slowly. But enjoying the hell out of it
Awesome, which bike did you buy first
Happy you enjoyed yourself, stay up and stay safe.
I bought a royal enfield himalayan. They're cheap, slow and easy to ride. And if i break it, I'm not that worried financially. My next bike will probably be a triumph.
I just did the same thing 2 days ago. I’m having so much fun. My first time riding. (MT-07)
Sounds like you're doing things the right way, Chris. There's too much hubris from a lot of the riding community telling new riders to "just get the bigger bike". I've been riding for a few years now (took the same approach as you) and still will stop at the parking lot by my house to practice MSF figure 8's and get the bike warmed up. It's good to get your head in the right space.
"Don't be a squid and lane-split at 186mph"

If you do have a close call and can pull over somewhere do it. Cool your head and get back on after your adrenaline calms down. Riding angry or spooked can be a distraction also. My first year riding was in a big city where cagers really didn't pay any attention so I had a couple of these moments.
They don't pay attention anywhere, there's just more of them in the big city.
Thanks for the warning. I'm gonna start learning soon and live in Scotland, so bad weather is our default setting. Well... For 5 minutes at a time 🤣
True, almost hit an electronic scooter 🛴 that a kid was driving with their baby brother on because they didnt stop at a stop line, pulled on the side to calm myself
I'm 36 and bought my 1st bike sorta on empulse and it sat for about a week as I was pretty nervous about riding it. I work really wonky hours at a state job so a MSF course wasn't an option, if I was gonna do it I had to do it myself. I quit drinking because I found I was getting into the habit of using the old " after work beer, ohh shucks, can't drive now" as an excuse not get out there and try it. Eventually I just forced myself out to our little road and... it all just worked. Bike didn't fall, my 1st turn was a low speed u turn and ... nothing happened, bike obeyed me and then I felt it dogging down so I went to shift and....it shifted lol. So now every day when I get off I do this course around town. Some days I go left, some days right, some days I ride to the river to have a smoke when it's really early and the river has that sweet low fog on it. But God...I was terrified at the start.
is this a Yammie deepfake? lmao
RIGHT
Quantity over quality I guess
Deepfake
It's not really deepfake tho, it's quite obviously a robotic voice
I'm I missing something 😬
I’ve been riding for 7 years but I watch new rider videos at the start of each season and it makes me remember that excitement I had, it’s coming soon :))
What are you planning on??
man, the excitment I am getting is nice. I still have to get my A1 license and I am excited to drive a bike. How was your experience when you first rode your bike?
im excited to start. im saving up for gear and other expenses but watching these type of videos keep me excited and informed. im thinkin of the ktm duke 390 or 450 for my first bike
something's not right....
They probably ai’d his voice
27 seconds in I agree
Why
Definitely AI'd the voice
If my little bit of experience is anything to go by, here is one piece of advice: NEVER hurry, and NEVER drive while being angry or scared. If your head is not in the game, bad things will happen. Remember, slow is smooth, and smooth is fast. I dont care how important that client meeting is. No job in the world is so great that you would risk your life to arrive there 5 minutes earlier. If you are half an hour late already by the time you start, 5 minutes will not make a difference. If you try to get through a 30 minute ride in 10 minutes, you stand a good chance of having to worry about things you did not even dare think of when you got out of bed that day. Best case, you get a pretty hefty ticket. Worst case: Pine box.
I ride an MT10 365 days a year in the UK. My main advice is stay relaxed. Even on frost /ice if you are loose and careful it's not "fun" but it's fine. If you stress you tense up and making it 10x worse.
I’m scared of riding in the rain
Same as driving a car in snow! Just don't stress out too much and tense your body and you'll be fine! When driving a car, you can also loosen your grip just a bit, so that when the car grabs on to a slightly slippery spot, the steering wheel will correct it automatically and you reflexively grab the wheel tighter again, correcting and stabilizing itself!
No fear, just zoom
yessir 😈
2:00 I actually contest this... get aggressive and pull up to the back of a pack of cars and then sit behind them. This may not be possible if traffic is as far as the eye can see but hanging onto the back of a pack of cars is probably one of the safer ways to ride on the highway. If you are in stop-go traffic, stay essentially in the lane-splitting position while not doing so. It will annoy them a bit, not enough to deliberately hit you but enough to make your presence known. If you are constantly changing lanes and diving into a lane every few seconds, cars cannot predict you and therefore might be more likely to hit you.
I was terrified of roundabouts, but now they are one of the funnest things to rip around. Just gotta watch people who STILL don't know how to use them.
Most others don't seem to know how to use traffic circles when you are on a bike because they don't count bikes as having any right of way, if they even see them at all.
Roundabouts are so fun, especially when you are going straight through it.
Here in Belgium we have some multilane roundabouts which connect the freeway on and off ramp, two lane roads and side roads, the roundabout is to small for the amount of traffic going everywhere, mostly big ass trucks. Some genius even found it funny to add some bike lanes aswell, man that thing is horror!!
I've been riding for about a week now. And roundabouts are some of my favorites. The first one was kinda sketchy for me. But I nail it every time now.
I have no idea how a roundabout works. I treat it like a stop sign and that seems to work for every body and now, it's just a 4 way stop
Do wheelies on group rides after you get an r1 for your first bike. Fastest way to learn and gain respect
I had an old lady pull out in front of me and I got to feel ABS for the first time. It was a bit scary but I was watching and was off throttle, instincts kicked in and I was fine.
A wise man once told me this about riding a motorcycle always look for two ways out of a possible situation because your guarantee someone will block one of them.
I just bought a beneli tnt135 as my first bike, took it on a ride yesterday and man it was so much fun... can't wait to ride again and improve my skills! Great video as always Yammie ❤
I just started riding this past weekend around block. Decided to take her to work, 13miles, this past Monday because I knew the holiday ment little to no traffic.. the fear of getting hit by a car I still my fear!!
My biggest fear are intersections, people can be very unpredictable

My first ride was on a GSXR 150. I still daily it to college. Imma size up pretty soon 😍
Note regarding the police thing, especially if you are a minority: if you're getting your papers out from under your seat or storage area, wait til the cop is within sight and tell them that's what you're doing and where they're at. Cops a lot of times don't entirely know what you're going to get out, and if you move suddenly and quickly to pull that stuff out, they may think you're getting a weapon out. Source: cops in the family who have admitted they tend to reach to put a hand on their taser if someone is moving too quick in their car / on their bike before they're even next to them or at the window.
The "minority" thing is a myth based on statistical probability of certain groups being more, often far more likely to commit certain crimes, including speeding or attacking cops.
The cops aren't going to hurt you unless you really piss them off so they cuff you too tight. Police are more likely to commit violence against white men when not being attacked first. Cops are are more likely to use less force against violence criminals who are NOT white men.
White guys, just do what the cop says. Everybody else, just pull your race/ gender card and then do what the cop says. If you aren't a white guy, you'll get off easiest of all.
I was a supersquid and started on a TL1000R, I just rode around my yards and land for a few weeks on the grass and gravel then took it out on the road.
First night out almost got waxed by a cop blowing through an intersection.
Hey Yam. Why does your voice sound so robotic lately? Or is it just me 🤔
no i hear it
Used to have the fear of washing my front wheel by using the front breaks too hard... It was quite bad actually as it would always make me reluctant and second guess myself when I had to apply heavy/emergency breaking. So, don't be scared, don't hesitate, just do it progressively: gentle at first, then progressively harder. It never hurts to train breaking either... That's definitely a thing that is likely to save your life or/and your bike's.
Did you ride trail or dirt before you got on a road bike?
Nah. I started on road bikes. It runs in the family though. When I was a kid we didn't have a car... My dad had a MZ250 2 strokes side car, a Yamaha XJ900 and a Suzuki GS750E... So I kind of grew up on them... Travelled through Europe on them (Picking up good and bad habits as I grew up 😅)
But never rode off road... Would be really keen into trying though 😅
Always watch 3-400 feet ahead and anticipate what may happen. How I’ve made it 15 years.
Great video
Thank you Yammie Noob 👍
Just got me some Rok form. Thanks for the recommendation👍
Thanks for the tip about handling it. That's been my biggest fear about riding.
I grew up on dirt bikes, so as far as control of the bike goes, I felt pretty comfortable. However, being new to street riding, I had a fear of traffic.
I was hesitant to go on some of my town's main highways, so I overcame that by slowly introducing myself to traffic; I learned how to better ready them, best place to ride to ensure I'm visible in their mirrors, and I just keep a little extra distance sometimes. I avoid weaving; I think that's dangerous regardless of how comfortable one might be.
Something I still am not comfortable with are major highways/turnpikes. Too many impatient drivers who don't signal, cut people off, and simply aren't looking for bikes. I prefer my backroads and country rides, anyway. :)
I got my first bike a week ago. I feel like I got the right bike, and like I have the right attitude.
The biggest thing I've learned this week is that it's actually way easier to ride when I weigh less, eat less, and do NOT use the weights when doing my usual leg excersizes. Not to mention it's easier to have a fantastic jaw line if you use calisthenics especially pushups because teh human body has a way easier time gauging how much to eat when you lift your bodyweights vs lifting actual weights imo.
About to purchase my first bike( Honda Shadow) next month so fingers crossed, I'm excited but nervous as well I've never ridden a bike before so it'll be a new but most exciting experience for me 😂
Good video, keep it up 👍🏼
My number one. Not really wanting to wave at all the other riders
I was the opposite. I always waved and rarely got waves back (i ride a crappy build-it-myself chinese dual sport). The first few times I got a wave back from the harley guys, it was as if i made it to the big leagues.

Also the biggest fear I have is dropping it dead center in the middle of traffic!
Thank you! I really needed this video because i’m thinking about buying a motorcycle but i have many fears. The throttle intimidates me. Controlling the power of the bike and being in traffic scares me.

It comes pretty naturally and for me having started a few weeks ago as an affordable means to commute, it reminded me of my first time driving a car. You don't pick it up instantly but the muscle memory will slowly become ingrained to the point you don't have to think about it much, your brain will connect the dots so you can use more of your focus not killing your new investment c:
@@15shekels thank you brother. This summer i must get one. 💪🏽
I bought a bike a week ago, you get used to the throttle very easy. It's like a car, you test how fast it can go, and then start from there.
Practice using your clutch , practice slow speed turns , practice braking , practice everything until it becomes easy.
For me the only fear I have going into my first year of riding is running out of gas somewhere random lol too many horror stories from family and friends about being stranded out in the middle of nowhere during a rain storm 😂
I'm on my sixth street bike, never ran out of gas, too easy to check. You don't have the reserve on EFI bikes though, but mine at least has a reasonably accurate gauge. However, I do worry about some spark or gas make it happener going out and being dead on the side of the road. Not a lot, but pushing a bike or walking is not on my agenda either.
Almost had this happen to me this past year with my first motorcycle. My current fear is my tire going flat and not knowing what to do when I'm on a commute to work.
@@x-man5056 yea it's a weird thing to be concerned about as it's so easily avoided haha but I think it's just the horror stories got stuck with me haha

Did ya get it?!
Did you?
@@IeeIee778 I did! Loving it
I am from the uk my bike test was in the rain and most of my rides are in the rain haha love the night time rain rides lol
Just embrace the freedom feeling of riding let go of all stress and Enjoy the ride!!!!!!!!!!!
some very good advice
Yeahhh Yammie!!
Hey man. Agree with most points, but not convinced with the ‘lane splitting’ stuff. I believe however, that simple defensive driving (riding) is not always the way to go either. Make yourself seen. 😊
I'm riding about a year now and still have some kind of weird feeling when in a corner my front wheel will slip under me, this feeling disappears when riding in a group or with friend which are more experienced than I'm right now, hate it really! My suspension and tyre pressure is set up correctly for my weight so I know it isn't going to happen when leaning 30 degrees lol, that's something that has to wear away I guess.
as a noob my biggest fear was the lines that run parallel with the street. i was convinced i was gonna get caught in one and tip over
6:18 My MSF course entirely in 30-40 degrees Fahrenheit rain/snow weather... I expect all my future rides to be in much better weather.
I’m not a new rider but I’m just getting back to riding after a 20 year hiatus. I fear riding in the rain and on fast moving expressways.
Only fears i had were of my carbureted dual sport stalling at 60 mph when i realized i didnt even turn the fuel on
I've been there 😄
Where I live in Markham, Ontario Canada no insurance company would even dream of insuring a motorcycle.
Yammie bro please do videos with ride with your buddies .I feel there are too much similar type content .Maybe a little detour would be refreshing
Nevertheless love your noob tips as I'm also a noob
I got caught in a hailstorm one time with no cover and it was a pretty miserable experience
Well, a month b4, my MSF course, I bought my first bike (07 R1). Drove it across the state through 4 rain 🌧 storms(3hr drive), stopping halfway for food, and a cop had to look at the bike and compliment, then asked where my plate was in traffic? I told him I just got it. That was enough to keep me going home. 4 from now months makes it a year.
Damn man that’s incredible, especially for you’re first bike! I commend you for your bravery on a 1000, I was thinking of getting just a 600 for my first bike lol
@Rayfort Green Thanks, I think I made because of the great tires, my fear/respect for its power, and I was 28 with self control.
Mine was my first wind tunnel on the highway with a semi truck and high winds speed
Im currently in the issue of this old 84 shadow is a bit heavy for me but atm only rode it once before i had to replace starter waiting on that now to ride it again
Getting new bike this week. Have been riding a lot with bigger bikes but thats ages ago. My last bike was 125cc scooter which i did avout 19 000kms and just sold it... so bit terrified to get the new hornet 750cc 😅
Seeing my GSXR 250 was unexpected. But Papa is proud. Greetings from Mexico
isn't that a gsx250sf?
My ninja 400 gets delivered tomorrow !!!!! So hyped
I don't have a motorcycle yet, however, I'm already afraid of getting rear ended by a lifted pickup, and for some reason I feel it's going to be a Chevy.
I love how the one guy is in full gear and his girlfriend dressed up like a squid.
I'm so afraid to ride in town. I only ride in back roads or roads that I know have little to know traffic. I have about 4 months of experience on my bike but, I still don't feel comfortable riding around town, especially with the crazy people.
Little to "know" traffic 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Got my license exactly a week ago, but ive been learning to ride for about 4 months (because i was stupid and chose not to take an MSF course. Don't be me). One week into daily commutes to and from work and my biggest ongoing fear is my bike sliding out from under me because i took a turn too fast or leaned too far or whatever. I have gotten a lot more comfortable leaning, I recognize more now just how much the bike wants to stay rubber side down and hug the road, but i still dont fully have a grasp on how much i need to slow down going into right hand turns especially
Is it just me or is this an AI emulated voice of Yammie?
Definitely ai
it's so noticeable lol
Tks. much.
dropping the bike first time on it, well I dropped it hurt my shin took skin right off, 2 days ago I rode again on a different bike was nervous but once on it and it went it went okay did not drop it and I had lots of fun was a mt07
I really don't like him using a voice synthesizer instead of talking himself. It just feels disingenuous:(.
Agreed. Laziness.
This is him talking🤣🤣I’m confused
He doesn't
I thought I was going crazy but I’ve noticed it over the past few uploads. Glad I’m not the only one 😅
Good thing he isn’t doing that
The first time I rode I dropped my buddy’s ninja 750r. I felt like a dumb ass but he said it happens and was super kool about it.
Talk?
Why does Yammies voice sound so synthesized?

It is, and it sucks.
Was like this last video too.
every time ive dropped my bike practicing, my gear shift lever has broken off so then i have to wait a week before i can order a new one and it arrives
Riding in high winds is what makes me nervous every time.
I've been thinking about getting a motorcycle for a while and I'm thinking about getting the Honda navi for my first, is that a good idea? All I'm really going to use it for is for easy commute for work and I've never ridden before.
Thanks for the tip. 10:35 “most importantly don't get caught😉”
I think my biggest fear is looking like an idiot. Like most TH-camr's say, go to an empty parking lot to practice. I do have a parking lot close to me BUT I have to get there first!! At this point, I've barely made it to the end of my street and back to my garage. I stalled it out a couple of times and then I looked down and fiddled with the engine like it was the bike's fault. LOL!! At least I didn't die, or drop the bike.
Omg I went down doing a Uturn in front of a car and people walking their dogs. Almost died of embarrassment!
@@Free.Bird88 That sucks. Luckily I live on a fairly traffic-free street. It's tough at first but it gets better. One thing that really helped me a LOT was learning to use the REAR brake for low speed maneuvers such as u-turns. If I'm going less than 15 mph I don't even bother with the front brake, especially if I need to turn.
Iv had my bike for about 5 months but couldn’t ride much for reasons. I had a job that was 2 hrs away and never been on the freeway so I said screw it and did it by the second day I was comfortable on the freeway and lane splitting in CA
Turning sweeping corners in the rain still makes me nervous. This is my third year of riding. I try to avoid riding in the rain if I can.
Riding in the rain is seldom a problem. You just never hurry. Getting caught in a hail storm, though, is another matter.
Because you have to stop to make snow cones?
@@johncasteel1780 yup pretty much, gotta watch out with roads made out of concrete slabs. Those are almost ice when wet, i take those very carefully.
Im old so I feel a 650cc is enough. But, when I was younger I used to race everything in site with my kz1000csr. I'm afraid I'll buy to little or too much of a bike with my 1st purchase in 35 years.
Fred… 650 is almost enough. You need 689cc. That’s the perfect street number. Please get a MT-07. I got one at 40. It’s a forever street bike now. Just listen to Yammie and get an akrapovic exhaust and a power commander 5. Now it’s the perfect street bike.
@@skysoldier856 I Googled the Commander thing you mentioned. Good chance I'm going to do exactly what you recommend. Thanks 👍
@@fredbowers4256 What problem do you think a PC5 will solve on an MT-07?
so one note
that gyroscope thing
not how that actually works, there is a very good veritasium video explaining how it works
I’ve been riding for eight months now going to the track with my R3 I watch a lot of your videos and a lot of other peoples videos and I take everything that y’all say to heart. And let me say if u saw me ride u would never know mine been riding for less than a year. Remind you, I have no dirt bikes going on but not the same at all. But still can’t get over the singer of Milo siding on public roads my bison much sometimes I feel it slip out tires really hot. Doesn’t happen at track as much but it does happen.
Heavy cross-winds, bridges with significant changes in height, and mountain passes.
Did my first wheelie today. It was on accident but it was clean...
I cant wait to ride
Started with a 900cc t100 gained alot of wrist strength😂
"And most important, don't get cough" lol
I really enjoyed the part of the video where she picked the bike up and waited for dude to come hold it.
Question: 🙋
Should motorcyclists purchase some kind of camera for their helmets?
In case of accidents and false allegations.
I've heard a lot of people online recommend it.
Any advice is appreciated.
Thanks Yammie.
interested too
I’ve heard that for that reason it’s a great idea to get a go pro and a chin mount for your helmet, and put the GoPro on the mount. You can also use it to upload any scenic routes you may have near you, that’s what I’m gonna do!
Yeah most people don’t like bikers so if you ended up in court and got some old head judge or whatever you’re gonna want everything you can to help your case. It’s a good idea to get a go pro for you helmet for that and other reasons. Good safety thing to have.
Yes, I got hit by a car and was fighting with insurance for months because I didn't have a video. The dickhead also refused to speak to the insurance company as well making it worse
@@Nb-ko5di yes, see my previous comment. Having one would have saved me a huge hassle. I've since got one to wear on my new bike
Is he using a voice syntheszer?
Been riding six months and have had to ride in rain 5 times.
As much as I'd like to have a Rokform case, There is no way I'm paying nearly $300 canadian for a case, bar clamp and stabilizer.
main fear is damaging the bike and not doing the proper services and maintenance required
It's exactly like riding a bike except, heavier, faster, and no pedals.
Salute
I've been riding for a year now and have delt with some weather but still can't seen to overcome groved payment. The way it effects the steering on my bike. Feels like the road is taking over my bike. Any suggestions?
First: Don't try to fight the bike. Just relax and keep it pointer at where you want to go.
Second: In the 60s, Dunlop K70s had a mostly square profile. They were really twitchy on grooved roads and steel bridge grates. The rounder K81s were much more forgiving.
More recently, in 2014 when I bought my FJR1300, it came equipped with Bridgestone BT021s, an excessively average tire. I35E (Dallas area) was undergoing a LOT of construction. The under construction road surface made the bike pretty twitchy. With less than one half of the tire life used (about 4000 miles) I replaced them with Bridgestone T30s. Changed the feeling of the bike.
Try changing tire brands. Go down to your dealer's tire department, tell them the problem you are having, and ask for suggestions.
Third: Try juggling tire pressures to determine what pressures work for you. For instance, the Book for my FJR recommends 36 psi front and 42 rear. I have found that for me, 40 FR/42 RR works much better.
Lol first ride and I crashed and laid it down . But I'm still riding.
0:15 Is there a problem with the gsxr? The gsxr is one of the bikes on my wishlist, is it bad or why should I get bullied for having one?
I’m 14 and got into my first wreck today got a giant hole in my elbow about belly button deep saw right into it and scraped my forearm and knee and hip. my helmet is scratched up and my BRAND NEW BIKE got a hole in my jeans and took a chunk out of my phone case don’t have my license yet I was just riding through the neighborhood for some more practice for the msf anyway before that it was really rainy and the rain had just stopped and there was some really slick mud on the road and I was just coming out of a turn at around 27mph and I tried to stop in the mud and fell off and scraped my body had to get a neighbor to help lift my bike because my arms and legs hurt way too much and bike wouldn’t start and the shifter wouldn’t even go into second so I had to walk it home so I’m never gonna ride in or after bad weather

I would love a rockform but they don't make one for my s21 Fe
Nice
My biggest fear was throwing myself off the back...... So once I figured out how to move I spent the next 4hours in a feild wearing full gear and a pillow on my back...... Doing everything I could to throw myself off the back 🤷 my friends use me as the "bad example" of handling fears lmfao 🤣😂 another example...... Was scared of heights at work in a high-rise (carpentry) 🤷 so I went skydiving later that month
I mean I think the best way to overcome a fear is to face it. I believe you’ve done just that, and I think that’s very brave of you. I like your way of handling fears tbh
