  • We did it. I have absolutely no idea why I waited so long to do this, but watch me go on an expressway for the very first time. Expect me to take this route a lot more 😉. I left a lot of raw footage in so hope you guys enjoy!

    Those firsts on a bike are amazing! Once you look back, you’ll be like “that was dumb to be that nervous”, but those first feelings can’t be brought back. Those are the moments where you feel alive! Enjoy the journey!

    Nice! Nobody ever forgets that first 100. But a little advice, don't shift up so quick while merging onto the highway. I know you're still in the break-in period but after that, ring out the gears longer. If you shift up to 6th so soon, you won't have enough power to get yourself out of a bad situation should it happen.

    • @MedusaMoto
      @MedusaMoto  ปีที่แล้ว +4

      ooo true. im getting a little better at that actually. staying in lower gears when merging and letting the engine rev up. thanks for the tip! 🤙💚

    Brother, good for you. I just sealed the deal on a 2022 Yamaha XSR900 yesterday, in SOCAL and rode it from Redlands back to Twentynine Palms which was my longest ride EVER on a bike, period. Going from “yeah I know how to ride” (which I do), to a baptism by fire of streets, freeway, wind, rain and some flooded roads for almost 100 miles was a life changing experience. Best of luck to you and keep posting the vids!!

  • @slept-on_SP
    @slept-on_SP ปีที่แล้ว +14

    Its actually safer in a way because you only have traffic flowing one direction and dont have to worry about motorist crossing paths at intersections, especially cars pulling out in front of you unexpectedly. My first time was later in the evening while the sun was still up but traffic had cleared out which was pretty much the most ideal time for me and my location to get my feet wet on i-5, now its like id definitely rather be on the freeway rather than inner-city.

    • @MedusaMoto
      @MedusaMoto  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      yes i actually agree with this. definitely a lot safer with the lack of intersections alone. idk why i waited so long to do this haha but it was so much f***in fun!!

    Definitely fun and scary pulling onto the highway for the first time but highways are actually less common to have crashes then intersections which made me feel more safe getting onto the highway for the first time. Love to see that your growing fast its only been a month from your first upload and you already have 50k total views and 250 subscribers. Your definitely on track for your channel to grow a lot faster than most people. I know you still are getting used to the bike but I would love to see a track day video soon once you have more experience with leaning the bike over. Love to see the quick growth man 😃 Keep it up 👍

    I've looped my last 2 bikes because of wheelie shenanigans and wearing gear is the difference between going to work/school the next day or going to the hospital. Dainese and Alpinestars are two excellent brands that you will pay more for but will last so much longer. There are two kinds of riders the ones that have been down and the ones soon to go down so gear up and ride safe but have all the funz too.

      yessirr!! i am the opposite i must say. very comfortable with normal shoes BUT, idk if you watched that drop I had on the curb. that definitely scared the s*** out of me bc my ankle 100% coulda got pinned between the bike and the curb. so deff gna look into some shoes i can wear to prevent any injuries from slow maneuvers.
      and yes agree highway is safer generally than all of these ppl at intersections. i love the expressway right now bc that’s really where i can let her loose a little bit 😈
