Gonna do mandatory 4 hour lesson tomorrow for my 50cc license, thought I'd watch this

@@MCJimboy10is a year old comment not enough for you to realized?
@@jmailsooti6765 All of your years on this earth and you still can't use the word realize in the correct grammatical format.
@@MCJimboy10 Before I begin my actual comment, I would like to apologize in advance for my inadequate level of English proficiency. I am not a native speaker of the world's current lingua franca which unfortunately leads to me making numerous embarrassing mistakes being made whenever I attempt to communicate using this language. Whenever I am reminded of how I lack the ability to convey my thoughts in an eloquent manner I feel as though I have committed a cardinal sin, as though every English teacher in the world are simultaneously shaking their heads and sighing due to how utterly disappointed they are at me.
Although I know that saying sorry to those of you who are reading my comment will not change the fact that I fail miserably to write and speak perfect English, I am writing this as a way to deter a certain type of people who cannot stand poor English (Also known informally as "Grammar Nazis") from mocking me by posting unwanted and unnecessary comments detailing my every blunder. In my humble opinion, making grammatical errors should be perfectly acceptable as native speakers should not expect non-native speakers to be able to communicate in their second or third languages eloquently. If you are able to completely understand what the other person wrote, is there really a problem with what they've written? No, because the entire concept of communication is the exchange of information between other intelligent beings, which means that no matter how the exchange of information is made, as long as the information is accurately shared there is not a fundamental issue with their ability to communicate. To see it in another way, remember that someone who isn't fluent in English is fluent in another language. When you think about it this way, isn't it impressive for someone to speak a second language in any capacity? Having empathy and respect are qualities that are sorely missing for far too many people these days, especially on the internet.
That being said, I am aware that not all netizens who correct others are doing it to ridicule and shame. There are some who do so with the intent to help others improve and grow. However, displaying the failures of other people publicly will cause the person who is criticized to feel negative emotions such as shame and sadness due to the fact that their mistake has been made obvious which severely undermines the point they were trying to make in spite of their unfamiliarity with the English language. In most circumstances people are not looking for language help when they post anything online. Most people just want to enjoy themselves and have a good time on the internet which is why I would not encourage correcting other people regardless of your intentions. If you really do want to help others with their spelling or grammar, I would highly recommend you to help via messaging privately because not only will you not embarrass anyone, you can also go more in-depth with your explanation which I'm sure the other person will greatly appreciate if they want help, but I digress. I know that I've written a bit of an essay, but I hope I've made my points clear. Anyways, here is the comment I wanted to make:

@@jmailsooti6765 Not reading that
Perfect thank you. I have driven for decades, ride a mountain bike all the time, but have never riden a scooter. I guess I have excellent road sense but riding a scooter will take new skills, practice and a few lessons.
Thanks again.
your already half way there by riding a push bike your already know how much lean to put when turning corers and have the awareness whats going on around you at all times the only difference your not peddling and can go faster
In the same boat... or on the same scooter 😄 Have you tried it yet? Was it okay?
Legend says he’s still going in a straight line
kept it really simple thx man
Good luck with your business young man, nice looking Typhoon.
Thank you. I live in Rwanda and I'm thinking about getting a scooter for the first time to leave town for the weekend. I've always driven cars before, so a bit nervous, but you make it look manageable.
I am in Nigeria and I want a scooter as well. Been driving for years so I am nervous too. I guess driving experience will count for something. Hope you get a great scooter snd enjoy yourself. Cheers
@@jayefe17 I did get one! Well, rented one from a friend. I did a couple of videos about how it went. Started on a TVS Jupiter 110 and now on a Haojue 110 semi-automatic, so baby bikes, but I'm really loving it. It's been a really steep learning curve because it's nothing like a car or a bicycle, I feel like I'm learning to drive all over again, and I've taken a couple of tumbles on steep mud hills, but so far the fun outweighs the terror. Do it! Have a go! ☺
For both of you: if you didn't crashed your scooters, yet, take these scooters in an empty parking lot or whatever empty flat space, and practice hard. And wear gear.
Can't wait when I get to the island and do this yea. Thanks for the guide
me: a kid that should only be using bicycles and skateboards
also me: lets learn how to ride a scooter
Never to young to learn by watching TH-cam videos mate
SAMEEEE
I’m 15 and have been on motorcycles with my dad since the age of 9. I’ve always wanted to learn so my dad bought me a scooter yesterday to practice with before a motorcycle😳
this is a great video, thanks!
That was a great lecture 👏🏾👏🏾
This is great now I don’t have to get lessons on how to drive a scooter! Thank you!!!
thank you so much for this video!!
thank you this is really informative
@@doge844 pls go away
Legend, gonna brave one tomorrow in phuket..
BEST scooter tutorial!
I just got a scooter for the first time! I’ve watched several videos and most skip over the scooter’s operational parts and driving tutorial, poor explanations, or the audio is just difficult to hear.
This video shows you EVERYTHING, start to finish, from identifying the scooter parts and operation to driving. I feel very confident now to hop on and GO! Thank you! ❤😊
One question: How do I reverse out of a parking space? Thanks!
you would have to manually walk it out of the park
Brake layout opposite of a bicycle layout. All the hand brakes on my bicycles have rear on the left and front on the right. Now my 3 speed ones have the front on the left with the rear coaster brake.
Woah, thanks man! TH-cam is some magical place
For some of us in the second half of life wearing clothing that covers everything and even elbow and knee pads is perfectly fine. Some may laugh but many will understand perfectly. Those are the ones who have first hand experience of dumping a bike at most any speed. I fall in that category 😅😊😅
someday i will own a moped thanks to this channel
Awesome post of a scooter bro
Thx for sharing.
Your video is very straightforward.
Tq, very clear and useful
tried to do my cbt (british test thing) and for some reason picked a fully manual motorbike instead of this. i did not make any progress there was so much i had to do for the first time but this looks like a joy
cbt!!!😂😂😂😂😂😂😢😢😢😮😮😮😮😮
Thanks 👍 very good video with price of gas thinking about getting a scooter.
Very informative
Great video.
thanks for this video
10/10. Bouta go buy me a scooter very soon
Turning onto a busy 4 lane intersection was kinda hairy at first, but this just about covers it. Never rode a scooter in my life and no one is dead, injured or in jail after watching a 2 minute vid and riding for 20 minutes around the city.
Not me panic watching this video after hiring a scooter in Greece
Lmaooo, with you a lot of people I think. How did it go? 😂
Thanks dude
I like that scooter. I might get myself one
That’s pretty cool for a scooter.
thank you very much i plan to retire in the Philippines and the main way of transport there is the scooter very informative
A Filipino here, and yes that's true. I'm also learning how to drive a scooter right now
Finally! Its amazing how far you have to scroll down to find a full English tutorial.
English isn't the #1 language everywhere. Jeez.
@@katrinakollmann5265 did I ever say it was? I live in a non English speaking country. I was just happy to find a tutorial in a language I understood. Is that wrong?
the vespa's behind 😍
Thank you!
I can't wait.
thank you 💖
That looks easy enough
What brand/ model scooter is this??
What model scooter is that and how much do they cost? Looking for a friend.
Please which type of scooter came at the start of the video
Hi! Is this the same as any other scooter like Honda today? Because I'm getting that in 4 month. 10th grade r school is going to be hard because it's 5KM Away and walking will take hours from my house 😅
I would also add do not raise your legs onto bike until, you gained directional control 👌🏼
I already knew this but I just wanted to watch 😂
Next year i will get one
2:07. I assume a petrol powered scooter would work on the same principle???
What type of scooter is that
What’s the brand of this scooter?
How long can I learn to ride a scooter?
Which scooter is that?
funny how im riding a manual bike, but am watching how to ride an automat xd(idk if its gonna stall when starting or on low rpm)
I have my driving test today and im nervous and im basically panic watching these types of vids
The problem for me is when the bike starts to move, it goes out of my control. Like it just wiggles and go crazy.
How do I buy from Africa
Anyone here who drives both car and scooters? Can you tell me if the scooter is generally easier to learn? I've started car driving lessons and I absolutely hate it. Plus I want a means of transportation for my work and I will not be able to afford a car (even used one, prices here are quite big), but it would be much easier for me to afford a used scooter or even a new one if it's not very expensive and I'm considering switching to bike lessons. In honesty, which one would you say is easier for beginners?
I been Graduated from University of Scooters 😁👌
How about reversing is there a button for that like a motorcycle with clutch must be in neutral if you want to reverse or do you just reverse whenever you want
U can just reverse anytime u want
you have to shift the bike into reverse first then slam on the gas to make it go. the harder you pull on the throttle the easier it is to reverse. good luck!!
This video about to go viral with the current gas prices lol
How about steering? Turn handle bars or counter steer like a motorcycle?
always lean unless your pulling out from a parking space or going very very slowly by that point you have skills the slower you go the harder it is the faster you are the more control you have over the bike by that point you push down on the handle bar very gently and you will turn get on a bicycle and do a u turn your body sort of knows how much lean to put into it if you can ride a bicycle then you can ride a moped the only difference you aint peddling and have a throttle. motorcycle slightly more difficult with the gears but its alot more smooth and easier than a car after an hour you will be wizzing around on it. you should take a class or have a friend show you in person on theres because these videos dont do it any justice it makes it sound more complex than it really is and when somebodies explaining it it makes it sound so difficult trust me it is really easy if you can ride a bicycle with ease after a bit of practice you can ride a moped and motorcycle with ease.
What's the name of your scooter it's beautiful
That's Aprilia SR
Typhoon
I have this scooter 🔥🔥
Piaggio Typhoon
Whats average price for this scooter? Liked !
4000 cad
I always taught these are just called motorcycles and so did my friends, and when I told them its a scooter they did not believe me, I think how it goes is, Semi auto motorcycle has no clutch, manual has clutch, and scooter has 2 brake handles and cant change gears
50cc all the way!
what model scooter was used for this video?
Aprilia sr
Piaggio typhoon
@@pringlessorted4644 Nope, the Aprilia SR 50 uses the exact same chassis and motor as the Piaggio Typhoon. The scooter the dude used in this vid is a Piaggio typhoon, it got the typhoon stickers.
Then you go... Lol Nothing about don't jam on the front brake during turns , use only the rear brake or you'll wipe out. Guy that sold me my scoot told me that one.
Which scooter is this could you tell me plz
Aprilia SR 150
What brand of scoot is that?
It's a Piaggio Typhoon scooter. Sorry for late reply
oh my god, i can drive this motor since i was 14 💪🏼
Oh fr do you live in the states if so how old do you gotta be to ride one I’m 14
What brand is that scooter
It's a Piaggio Typhoon showed in the video
How to throttle?
on the right side of the handlebar, there an accelerator
Do you need a license for one
In some places if its under 50cc you don't need one
Bro y’all American- European scooters only have top speed of 73 kph? Here in south east Asia our scooters could go over 130
I should have learned to ride a bicycle as a tween
Don't worry...if I managed to learn after 5-6 sessions (in a park) at the age of 37, you could also. The key is to never give up. Well, unless your muscles get tired. Good luck!
My 110cc scooter can reach around 125MPG
This video is how to start a scooter, not how to ride
The reasons why I wanna ride a motor scooter is because for my dream job
what kinda dream job lil bro
@@anishalle761 Universal why
Okay, now how to stop
This doesn't actually tell you how to ride a scooter though. Nothing about lane position, following distances, headchecks etc.
How to ride a scooter? More like, how to start a scooter.
Pretty much the same as a motorcycle?
Engines are hella small on scooters (less than 70cc or 125cc in certain regions are considered scooters, while motorcycles are classified as such over those CC's).
Motorcycles and heated riding gear are making cars obsolete.😅
Basically like an electric bike. But we don’t have a kill switch. And it’s gas.
I wanna drive a motor scooter 🛵
My country allows people to drive under 125cc without a license no matter the age
even below 13?
Damn lucky lol. Phillipines?
Woah,??? Hi beam for riding at night?? Completely incorrect way to use hi beam
W
Im getting my first job this year and im svaing up for one , should have enough in aguest to start 160$ a month , im so exciter
Listen if you can ride a bicycle there isn't a scooter in the world u cant ride... Twist and go don't forget the brake thats it
Hmm
Let's try this
How to turn on a scooter
Yeah that's better
Amazing that you teach a First-Time video with minimal gear and rockin shorts, not a good look.
As a biker im cringing at the fact you have shorts and tshirt no gloves and not a full face covering helmet mopeds are just as deadly and dangerous as normal motorcycles 40mph is still 40mph if you fall off and somehow survive you would of wished you would of died in the crash mopeds are no joke people get protective gear dont cheap out on it either it will save your life far as im concerned you have no business trying to teach people how to ride a moped when the first lesson should of been get the right gear.
Extremely true, protection gear saves lives and could protects you from being tetraplegique
Don't.
Who else is here because of the Biden gas hike?
it's funny to see someone really needs a scooter riding tutorial 😭
Why would you automatically know how to ride one if you’ve never done it before
Wearing shorts. Lol. Not smart.
