Thom B would you need to wear the gear let’s say if you are just riding to school?
Would you need an airbag or seatbelt if you were just driving to school?
"why I should listen to this guy?"
Cause I have no idea how to ride a motorcycle.
Thought the same exact thing haha
XxalienxX 💀💀😂
🤣🤣💯
Same here.
I had a dream that I had a bike and I remember it was a very fun dream and when I woke up I thought like damn it would be nice to have a motorcycle I could just go take a ride when I was bored or I could ride to my friend and now when I think about it I feel like that's like one of the most fun things so that's my story of how I got into motorcycling
I'm 12 and had this dream today
I live in Finland
And hope you have a wonderful day
I hate it when I pop the clutch and kill the engine when a red light turns green in heavy traffic. Embarrassing. Sometimes I panic and forget how to start the bike again 😬
🤣
I did this with an old Jeep CJ-5 once. Heavy local traffic, I panicked, kept choking down, traffic is backed up. Friend stopped, rolled down her window and asked one question: Is it in first? Nope. :o
I feel u
@@bonnie_lass Good old times when learning to drive stick!
Always putting it in 3rd by accident instead of first
Just gotta breath and relax, you'll get there,
Hell 12 years later I still stall my bike out every once in awhile lol.
1. Proper gear
2. Common sense
3. Leave your ego at home
4. Listen to the uploader's tips
5. Profit
It's in the notes.
@@HobbyistPrinter Yes, "Gear" and I added some much needed advice.
You are welcome
What if you don't have common sense?

my cousin passed away 6 years ago from a motorcycle accident, he died on impact. was speeding & had no gear, no helmet on. my family & i developed a fear of motorcycles after that but the older i got i realized the bike wasn’t the fault.. so, here i am. thank you.
i’m sorry for your loss. i’m glad you have the courage to try out a bike again, i hope you enjoy it!
@@mayjalook8652 thank you! :)

I'm sorry for your loss, glad to hear you're back in the saddle again.
I remember watching this two years ago. 20,000+ miles under my belt now and I watched it again just for the hell of it.
Nice
Ayyyy u made it
Ill assume its good advice since you're still alive
@@exorias625 Just ride a lot. Practice, practice, practice. It's how you get good at anything. I now have 40k miles on 3 bikes in 3 years. 😁
@@danejurus69 do u recommend starting on a 300cc or 125?
Also after u initiate the turn using counter steer do u then steer into the corner like u would below 10mph?

The problem isn't how to ride the motorcycle its how to get your parents to allow you TO ride one before you're out of the house :|
Thomas Myers my parents tried to stop me but they gave up once they realised I was going to do it no matter what they said. I bought a bike and now they're more content now I'm working on it and improving the mechanics
I did the same thing. They didn't want me to get it. I got it, they were annoyed but they got over it.
Thomas Myers my struggles exactly bro.
Thomas Myers if you're living at home in mommys house and own a motorcycle and trying to figure that out, your priorities are fucked. You got other things to worry about son.
p.s. dont do wheelies bruh, its not as cool as you may think kid.
Thomas Myers I'm 18 so I don't need the permission but yea I had to wait till I was 18 because my mom is terrified of bikes
I'm 1 minute in and your speaking skills are impressive as hell, very clear and direct without feeling scripted, feels like a buddy talking to you in person
"without further ado"
proceeds to add much more ado
Lmao. Idk why this was so funny to me🤣

Very helpful.
I'm 70, and just got a bike. Very well explained and demonstrated, and now all I need is the practice...

I passed my CBT today.
Just wanted to say a big thank you for this video it helped relax me big time.
very good video.it may help me for the new learner
@@bhimkulung7828 i never ended up learning. And sold my bike that i bought a week ago
Congrats buddy!! I just have one question.. So when you are getting ready to start the bike and you want to tell that the bike is in neutral, you just roll the bike and it stops or that's for the first gear?
The learning doesn't end after you've passed the license test. High-siding, low-siding is going to eventually have to happen.
Good job
Damm, I watched this video 3 years ago, I booked my test the next day and bought my first bike! Thankyou for getting me into this amazing world of bikes 😁
Got my bike test on monday. It's a full course, never rode a motorbike before but it's on my list of things to do so I thought fuck it lets get a course booked in. Cant wait to get my own bike

You'll do fine man
Did you die?
+7 Drunk Midgets I did not. I watched 1 other video with a diagram on how to shift and went out there. Actually traded my 200 for a 650 yesterday. It's not that difficult. I think most people, including myself, over think it.

How do I get to a parking lot if I don't know how to ride
push your bike lol
Have someone ride it for you
Trailer/truck
Is this a serious question? If you can't figure out how to get your bike to a parking lot maybe take up a different pastime.
@@quantumpeep866 yeah, people shouldn't start riding if they dont already know how.
2019 and still the best “how to ride a motorcycle” on TH-cam
ive been watching youtube motorcycle videos for 5 years cause i always wanted one. Today i rode a bike for the first time in my life, for around 15 seconds all my dreams came true, until i fell off. Throttle is twitchy af, freaked out, and opened the throttle even more as i fell, took me 10 minutes to get into first and not stall. FML not at all how i imagined. I need to practice man.
Abe Sitta what size is the engine if the bike that you are learning on I recommend a 250
How did you fall? Going to slow? Or turned to hard?? That's the thing I'm scared of lol seen people freak out and just gun it instead of letting go
Abe Sitta the exact same thing happened to me today i understand your pain
It is your fear that trip you off. Panic sets in and your right hand is shaky and got stiff, and thus twisting the throttle in big swings. Try without your right hand; or even, learn how to ride a bicycle to get your balance straight first.
I just got my first ever bike today, and had similar issues. The first time I got on it and took off it went fine for a few seconds, then I tried to come to a stop, panicked, let go of the clutch, accidentally pulled the throttle down even harder, and ended up driving over a parking lot barrier and having the bike fall on me. It messed my leg up pretty badly but I got back on and did a few more laps around the parking lot, mostly sticking to 1st gear, ended up stalling it 5-10 times probably. The throttle is definitely way more twitchy than I imagined it being, and I'm not used to controlling the vehicles engine with my hand instead of foot. I think being relaxed and without fear is the biggest thing, when you're scared you become more twitchy and robotic. But yeah, now im definitely considering getting full safety equipment before my next practice session, a helmet is nice but that doesn't protect my legs or arms if the bike falls on me. The bike is a Honda Rebel 300 btw, if anyone is interested... got it brand new, had literally 0 miles on it when I left the dealership, and now it's already got some dents, scrapes, and pavement paint plastered on it xD
I drive an 18 wheeler with 13 gears for a living and plan on getting my first bike, the thing im most worried about is the shifting! How silly 😂. Great video. Thanks for the guide!
Same. I learned on a Super 10 and a 13, and that's what I worry most about learning on a motorcycle. Lol.
Lol to funny same here.
if you can drive a manual anything you can shift a bike

Da real mvp
Actually this gentleman has taught me how to ride a motorcycle can't believe it😊😮😮😮. I live in Johannesburg in South Africa so I saw a beautiful motorcycle on sale that was advertised on the Internet in Pretoria approximately 44 miles a way from Johnnesburg I had no one who could ride it for me I run fast to the TH-cam to look for a video where they can teach you how to ride a motorcycle found this gentleman and listened to him one two three times then I embarked to Pretoria to go and buy my babe there we go I bought it and rode it myself .
Man you are strong 💪💪💪. Thanks really appreciate
The idea of shifting with my foot makes me nervous. What if I get a leg cramp?
You won’t. I used to drive a dirt bike all the time and never got a cramp
EXACTLY HOW I FEEL!!!
There’s no possible way to get a cramp, I’ve ridden motorcycles for 20 years with riding daily to and from work for 3 years straight in rain and shine when I lived in Florida and have never gotten a cramp your legs aren’t hanging in the air nor is your foot so you’re not depending on your muscles in your legs to hold them up which would cause cramps. Your feet are resting on foot pegs and the positioning of your legs are actually resting on the tank and frame. If you have issues with circulation to where you get cramps easily, keep your body hydrated and drink plenty of water before riding and whenever you stop at a gas station.
Do you even drive a car dude??
@@jerryb84 hello :)
Your comment is from 7 months ago but I'd still like to thank for the explanation plus ask whether it is dangerous to ride on a rainy day. What is your experience, does the weight of the bike matter much for example?
i just loved the explanation even though i have no bike at all i just wanted to know in case hahahah
same
I don't have a bike either yet but I am going to get one and when I do I want to make sure I know what I'm doing and be ready as much as possible.
if you watch this on youtube instead of being explained on the field, means that
sukmanesafz
I only wanted to know because my boyfriend just bought his first bike and has classes friday...I want to be prepared and I got curious hahahahah
This actually lessened my almost paralyzing fear of getting onto a bike and start learning :D thank you so much for this great video!
Same here. Did you learn?
7 years later and this is still helping new riders learn to ride. Thanks dude
I'm a 58 yr old woman getting moto license. Have never been on a bike or driven shift car. This was the only video so far that has explained from the beginning clearly to understand, where everything is on a moto, shifts and how to shift, take off. Very clear video. Thank you!
So I already passed the hardest test, convincing my parents to allow me to get a bike
It's your money tho
Aidan Paulin they don’t want him to die
@@TheLinposterIsSus sounds delusional, we all die. narcissist boomers as well.
HOWD YOU DO IT I NEED TIPS
What I did when I lived with my parents is I just bought it anyways and they couldn’t sell it cause it was under my name
One thing to note for someone’s very first ride is that a lot of bikes have a touchy throttle. In other words you don’t twist it until way later. It’s a very slight movement to get the rpms up enough to get going. How many videos have you seen of grandma twisting the throttle half open and dumping the clutch which then makes her body weight twist the throttle wide open...ending in disaster!
I suggest people start by not even using the throttle. Just releasing the clutch to biting point. Most bikes will get moving without any throttle. Learning clutch control avoids the 'too much power' issue some new to riding have.
Whisky throttlers are funny
Kevin Tucker its about traction if you just lean at high speed your front might loose traction and skid out.... Not fun trust me I got matching scars on both legs...
8 years old video still helping millions of new riders all across the world.
That's the best thing about TH-cam. 👍👏👌
You have absolutely no idea how clear and great this video is I’m crying tears of joy thank you.

Getting a bike so i can ride with my BF. This is the most comprehensive vid so far so thanks! Mainly worried about stopping and figuring out my feet
Thanks to your video i bought my first motorcycle yesterday and drove it home with no problems😊 thanks bro god bless

You ride a bicycle, ride a motorcycle, ride a tricycle, ride a tricycle, ride a unicycle, but how do you ride a recycle?
The motorcycling world needs loads of videos like this judging by the idiots seen 'riding' on TH-cam! I've been biking for 58 years but that includes 4 years off road, and my main machine these days is a GTR1400. My main tips for staying alive are to ride with restraint and always think well ahead. After lots of experience by all means hit 200 m.p.h. but on a race track or on closed roads eg. the 'Isle of Man.' I've seen 4 pals die from crashes and its not a pretty sight. For EVERYONE death lies less than a second away. Stay safe.
Thank you sooo much for this . I am about to take classes soon. I was apprehensive to learn after one of my friend's died from a motorcycle accident. Watching this made me more ready to learn. Bless you!
ahhh.. I remember riding my first bike 13 years ago.. i stalled the engines so many times i can only recall having a hard time putting it to neutral than actually riding
I live in Malaysia and nearly everyone here knows how to use a motorcycle which makes me insecure cause I don't really know how to
Same here. My younger brother is the one who teach me to ride a motorcycle 😅
I'm not Malaysian I just want to say Hafizh Syahrin is awesome and best of luck to him next year as well :)

Now once you mastered this Try riding a LITER Bike for the first time here th-cam.com/video/-ctdby7NTAM/w-d-xo.html
I bought a bike, but have never even driven a manual car before. So I've been practicing on a dirt bike. This video has helped a lot! I am looking forward to going on bike rides with my family soon!
It would be so embarrassing to accidentally kill the engine when the light turns green...
Heheh it's okey , it does happen , just ignore all the noise that the cars behind you will do :P [ happened to me like 2-3 times Y_Y ]
ClarksDailyVlogs It's happens to the best of us. If you are driving anything manual, it's bound to happen. Don't worry about the people behind you. In my opinion, stalling the vehicle is fine sometimes. Just make sure that you don't roll backwards into the vehicle behind you. (Speaking mainly of cars) Now that would be embarrassing
It's happened to everyone who's ever drove a manual. The best is on a hill. That really gets you sweating.
Don't dump the clutch, kids.
That's why I got started on a sub 200cc Bike.
it happened to me.. i was on friend's bike and it had different gear shifting way.. i got anxious and forgot the gears then finally took a deep breath and got back to it.
I love how at the beginning you establish your credibility. How many years you've driven, what you graduated from. Great video brother. Can't wait to start driving one.
It’s the same principle as driving a manual car, if you have one you’ll adjust quickly
Nice
Easy peasy then
Really????
nice i have only owned a manual transmission so i guess i am fine
I think that your are an amazingly talented instructor. Few people are blessed with the ability to convey knowledge so effectively. Great video. Thank you.
So I took the MSF course in November of last year, got my license and just got my bike about a week and a half ago, 650r ninja 08. Your videos help out alot especially for new beginners like me...Thand for taking the time to do it.
always keep your cool when going in traffic dont worry about the cars behind you waitting on you, dont get rushed and release the clutch too quick or give it more gas, it's one thing on the parking lot another is on the road. Once again, dont feel rushed by the cars behind you. :)
This actually helps me a lot because I’ve been looking at doing my CBT but I know I’m the UK there’s a lot of arsehole drivers which have been putting me off wanting to do it..but I’ve been thinking about getting a 125 after going on the back of my mates and I must say he sent me the link to this channel so thank you mate for showing us how to use the bike safely
Hope you got the bike mate
Thank you!
Great starter video !!
Thank you! :)
***** , I have debated learning to ride and buying a motorcycle to commute to work. The problem is I am hesitant about driving on California freeways on a motorcycle. It's bad enough in a car/truck. Haha.
Is a 600cc bike usually a good size for beginners?
tedbert7 Really any bike is good for a starter!
TNE_IMPOSSIBLE , I figured a lighter bike would be better. Don't you think a 1200CC+ bike would a bad choice to start off on? Just curious
tedbert7 Yes but it depends on who you are, people who are more mature and taller can easily ride bigger bikes. Bikes like 125cc can actually be more diffuclt to handle. But you are right a lighter bike might be better for you. :)
I learned how to ride in a day from just watching this video!! Thanks a lot man .. and to everyone learning to ride it’s all about clutch control
Is the counter-steering thing really that intuitive?
Masego Finger counter steering will be the hardest thing to learn taking corners at high speeds.. I just suggest practicing at 15 mph then go to 20 and build up from there in any vacant parking lot ...good luck and be safe ..
I've been on my bike about 3 times with just your video to learn.. never driven anything manual. After about 90 minutes or less on the bike on comfy cruising in first... gonna try and shift to 2nd tomorrow lol thanks man!
Fifteenth video i've watched on how to ride a motorcycle--this video was the best one by far! The demonstration was perfect.
Those are some pretty crazy shoes, but I'm a pretty crazy guy.
So you shift exactly like a manual car.. Nice 👍🏽
uhh, no.. first of all you shift with your foot and use the clutch with your hand, which is the other way around for cars, and the gears aren't one down and the rest up in a manual car. so how is this exactly like a car? lol.
The Revealer I'd assume he means clutch, change gear, release clutch and throttle... It is pretty much the same as a manuals car, apart from using your foot.
murica lol
you dont shift a non manual anything, stupid inbred yanks
TheLondonCyclist oh crap it’s you lol
I remmember watching this video last year, now I have my Honda CB 160 F. Thabk you for being part of my bike story 😀 Greetings from Guatemala! 🇬🇹🤙🏻
I'm a beginner and I am taking all the good knowledge I can. I've been been told a lot of the things you said, but the way you explain it in your video makes it a lot easier to understand. You do a great job of explaining what you're teaching. Helped a lot. Thank you.
I hope this comes in handy this weekend, I'm taking a class and my first ride on the street! I haven't been on a bike for 40 years. Thanks for all the help!
THIS is how you make a "How to ride a motorcycle" video!
Well done.
Your the best!!! I watched your video 2 times with some rewinding. 3 days later I bought my first bike (11 Versys 650). Got on the same day and was allllllll around town, back streets of course.
Thanks bra keep it up👍🏾🦾
I’ve got my motorcycle license but it’s been 10 years since I’ve rode- been kinda wondering if I even remember anything- after watching this, it all came back to me! You did a great job!
Great video for beginners like myself. Thinking of getting a bike, but I get the fever every year and haven’t ever followed through.
pretty crazy shoes for a pretty crazy guy :D
Haha my one and only attempt at being funny, thanks for watching!
Lol I read that the moment he said it. Some sort of video wizardry I tell you hwhat.
***** dude you are awesome. im just 15 and because of you i learned how to ride my fathers bike
McAwesome Gamius Damn dude, that's pretty crazy. Goodjob!
Got this exact bike last November brand new love it just as much as the first day I got it. Perfect beginner bike!!
Very thorough and spoke very clearly. I learned everything I needed from this video. Will gladly reccomend this video to anyone I know who also wants to ride.
I bought myself a street and trail dirt bike last October. Suzuki DR650. Parents are completely fine with it (not that they have much say in what I do with my money). Now I just gotta take the course and get my license to drive it on the road. I'm also going to watch videos on here on how to drive one. My bike is going to be my vehicle for the summer. To all the people saying your parents aren't ok with it: unless you're using their money to buy the bike, they can't stop you from getting it. Your money, you decide what you wanna do with it. There are some people in my family who are/would be against me having a bike but they couldn't stop me from getting it. I worked my ass off all night at my job (I have a nighttime job) for months and when I had the money saved up, I went and bought my bike. Yes, respect your families wishes such as being careful and not driving on the highway if they're not comfortable with you too but don't let anyone stop you from getting something you want if you're paying for it. It would piss me off to no end if my parents would try and stop me from getting something I want if I'm paying for it. If you want something and you're paying for it, get it.
I love the mushroom key fob. It's epic and I want one.
Very much needed this quick run of a crash course because of this year's pandemic of not being able to ride out. thank you! ✨
Great video!! Just learned how to drive stick shift in the last year. Extremely helpful for stepping up to a bike!!
even though this was posted in 2013, this is an excellent tutorial, props to you!
I like your videos bro,not like other TH-camrs who don't give details.
Watched this video back in 2016. I was terrified of riding any motorized two wheeled vehicle. You're video made me realize "oh it's not that bad" and I went out and bought a motorcycle. I'm still riding 5 years later. Thanks!
Finally a video that explains counter steering well.
Can't wait till quarantine stops and businesses open up so I can go get my license
I just got my permit and I'm taking the course in month and I'm super pumped but super nervous. Love this, thank you so much!
I start my learner’s course tomorrow and I haven’t really researched anything beforehand but I found this video and after watching it, I feel a lot more at ease about it sooo thanks 🙌🏽
Sure, here's the corrected version:
This video is 10 years old, and I learned everything I need to try tomorrow on my first bike (M1000 RR). Thank you, Sir, for the lesson.
I've watched this video so many times. I'm taking an MSF course & this video made me feel a lot more confident in applying what they were saying. thank you!!! Just bought my first bike last week, 2009 Kawasaki zx6r ninja
I'm taking my class in November, I'm pretty excited about how thorough this video is!
I recommend learning on a 1000cc sport bike.
lol
Lmao
Bill Yu it’s not a bad recommendation Putting your sarcasm to the side, if you get the concept of riding, you can jump on any bike and it’s a matter of getting used to it while riding. If you have never even rode motorized 2 wheels then my opinion will vary.
haha! 250 kid
I literally started on a cbr1000rr
Well last year on Valentine's Day I was in a bad accident riding my motorcycle (Honda cbr 250) where I was hit by a car from the back and injured my body all over. It destroyed my memory so I'm trying to learn again
Celeste Albritton I hope you get well and can ride again. I crashed twice and I’m struggling starting again
Ethan Sheffield maybe I will ride again I really love motorcycles
Celeste Albritton awe this is so sad...glad you're okay.
Last year on valentines (2017) my brother took me for an hour ride to the harley i got a job at; 30deg and we were doing 100mph...raced someone on the way back, almlst swung out into a curb and also lost traction when a light turned red and the dude decides to just stop.
It was a dumb thing...could have ended terrible. Will think twice next time for sure, and actually get myself proper gear.
Vegan GG hey you’re really cute. Just saying
Vegan GG and congratulations
Just bought me a HONDA 300. Never driven a bike but watching your video gave me alot of confidence and I did great on the first try... Glade you shared this video with us..🤜🏿🤛🏽
This video is the most helpful!!! Explained everything well!!
Thank you so much! Bought my first bike today '09 Honda Rebel 250. I have 0 experience driving a motorcycle. Your video got me started with success!!! Thank you so much. Starting with slowing releasing the clutch is life saver!

Sooooooooo goood!! Thanks man. I take my class soon, never driven bike before and watching your video has given me tons more confidence
My dude you have the best video on TH-cam about this foreal foreal! You thoroughly went through and explained everything. Thanks bro!
Great video with comprehensive instructions for a beginner.
I don't even have my licence and I got a sport bike lmao. Since it was the end of financial year and was going for like half the price I bought one and figured it would sit in the garage until I got gear and all that.
Thanks bro , i know i can do it now ..you gave me the confidence a beginner needs and just enough to start out , I'm saving up to get a half decent starter bike , when I do I'll make a video so you can see how I'm doing, thaks again 👍👍
Taking my permit test today. went over practices but was still somewhat lost. Probably cus the only experience i have is bicycles and automatic cars, never manual. Have only shifted gears while playing video games so that the most knowledge ive had so ar. This video put everything i didnt know into perspective. Now the some parts of the practice test wont look like a foreign language any more. I get it all know. I had no clue all bikes were manual. This video helped out alot. Thanks for making it and god bless you for it.
If only my father could taught me like that. I wouldn't have busted my leg then. Guess some people don't have that much of patience
Super helpful. I got my license 5 years ago and was riding for about 1.5 years then my bike needed work and I hadn't been riding in 3 years. Forgot a couple basics. Looking to get a 2nd bike and needed a review. Thanks!
A couple of things. I think learning how to stop safely is one of the first things to learn, if things start going wrong then being able to stop quickly without panicking is going to save a lot of pain and also give you confidence during learning. Secondly it's important to know not to snatch or grab the front brake, it needs to be firm but progressive to allow the weight of the bike to transfer to the front wheel thus maximising front tyre road contact and giving maximum braking performance and minimising front lockup risk.
I’m so glad you explain the part at 9 mins into the video. Thank you
Thanks for the video man, great explanations. I just bought a bike like an hour ago and I'll be running around practicing tomorrow, this will help me out a lot.
Years later impact man. thanks for the clean and simple walkthrough
Best starter video I've watched! Nice job!

Thank you! Just bought my first bike and am ingesting as much info as I can. This was really helpful!
Awesome video! Buying a bike in April and this gives a nice foundation to build my bike knowledge on for when I buy! Keep uploading great videos like this!
