Nikki did amazing! You can see the progress in just ONE ride. This is her very first time and she listened very well. The ride back shows massive improvement. We chose this rode because its a simple, easy, and curved road to practice countersteering. I did get scared, but I was doing the same thing when I first started!

Hi DDFM. What communication systems are you using if you don't mind me asking. Thanks.
Cardo Packtalk Slim
@@DanDanTheFireman thank you very much for your time. It sounds so clear. My wife and I use a sena 10. Having trouble hearing each other.
I still don't understand 'counter steering'. When I make a ledt turn, I pull the handle bars with my left hand, not push with my right hand.
@@DanDanTheFireman where can I get a crash guard for the rebel. Mines a 2017 500
This is how I wish more men would be with their ladies when teaching them to ride. 100% encouragement and confidence boosting.
@G B I don't think most men do that. I think most man are like the video.
It’s so sexy!!!!!
Anem & God Bless you for showing her love....
Yea this is great to see. Like me and my girl before she cheated on me, we were so cute.
Not everyone is cut out to teach. For instance I can break and train horses and obviously know how to ride very well but I couldn’t teach my sister how to ride a horse it came to natural to me to be able to teach it.
Dude you're a killer instructor during this, would def love more of these
Great Teacher 👍
Refreshing to hear a new rider express their fears, confidence, openess and ability to learn from mistakes. Many have egos that won't let them learn. She will excell cause she wants too...
I agree man. Thank you for watching. That's exactly why we posted it
I get shouted at when I Express my fears and openess
@@capricorn2260 that's not a way to learn. Communicate your concerns in case somehow they don't realize it affects you. It's all about communication
@@pedrorivera7610 Trust me I communicate very well but I guess some people are set in their ways. I was told if I don't like it then I can get someone else to teach me and I have found someone else
@@capricorn2260 unfortunately, you'll always encounter people like that. Don't let it change who you are. Hopefully this new person treats you better!
I learned to ride in my fifties. I remember my first ride on open road, thrilling but so vulnerable. Curvy two lane road and I saw a dump truck coming up behind. That's how I gained the courage to give it a little more throttle!
She is so bloody cute! I can relate to all her commentary. Husband got me a Harley sportster. Haven’t made it to the roads yet but this has helped me feel a little ready and a tad less anxious… good on ya girl!
Rebel 500s are so underrated. That thing is sharp looking and it must be a blast to ride. I was so close to getting one, but ended up getting something a little bigger for my second bike. I still really want a Rebel 500 one day though. Just a really comfortable looking, nice, easy ride.
I love that we get to see a little silly caring side of DanDan here. My friends get weirded out when im goofy/soft with my girlfriend but I love, she loves me, and i feel comfortable around her (: My girlfriend is the one that got me into bikes anyways. We'll buy our first bikes soon within a few months and can't wait to be on the road with her being free and goofy, away from toxic "friends". Thanks Dan
That’s absolutely beautiful to hear brother . Your friends should be happy for you and look up to you for how you treat your lady ! I pray continuous happiness for you and yours brother ! 😎
So incredibly calm and patient, dude.
I truly admire that.
From the things I've seen in life I get far more paranoid...
And that converts to me being sharp with loved ones in 'danger zones'.
I learned a LOT here.
Obviously you were genuinely concerned but didn't let that come through to make her nervous.
Lesson learned.
Cheers
Some people are natural instructors. Dan is definitely one of them. GREAT JOB!
OMG I literally felt her... I was so nervous on my first ride (still am sometimes) I actually remmeber riding at her speed! It's marvelous you're helping her that way!
I wish someone would've done this with me... I had to suck it up and just go.. made some mistakes but luckily I made it and learned from them.. Its good to be a little nervous..
This is the best counter steer "tutorial" I have found. Most are hard to perceive whats actually being done. Here, I can literally see her pushing the bar and leaning into the turn. Great video guys!
That 360 cam is pretty slick! I love it
Oh I'm so glad I'm not the only one who has to stop and take a breath it's so nerve wracking and exciting at the same time.....
She's come a long ways in a short period of time. Your are right about more saddle time. Nothing can replace experience in varied conditions. Learning to ride in sections that have gravel, sand, and wet surfaces will prove to be invaluable in the future. I was lucky learning to ride dirt first. Taught me body english, and how to control the bike while the rear tire is spinning, and sliding. With that experience you don't freak out when it suddenly happens. You instinctively respond correctly. Of course all the knowledge of how to ride is good, but useless in an emergency until it is practiced to the point it becomes second nature. Muscle memory. The one on one training with communication you are giving her while she rides is really great. We had nothing like that in the late 1960's when I learned to ride.
It has been fun watching her progress. I think your encouraging style of teaching will go a long ways in making her a safe, and confident rider who enjoys the sport.
Dirt bike riding is sooooo valuable. I learned alot when I took the Sportster off road. Thank you for watching her progress!
1:50 this segment KILLED ME 😂😂😂😂😂
Getting a bike in a month😁 after the exams. Wish me luck!
Very cool man. Have you decided on one yet? I can tell you from experience, if your leg inseam is longer than 28 inches...you, chances are, will be cramped on a Honda rebel coming from a rebel 300 2017 year model owner here with a 32" leg inseam and I wear boots. Just trying to help you avoid making a bad comfort decision.
Irfan Hyder congrats I just got my first bike 🏍 in February . Take the safety course
Irfan Hyder did you get your bike..
Still alive
@@kcklub Lets hope so
Today was my first time ever riding a street bike, picked up a 2017 iron 883 today and had to ride it home for the first time, only about 10 miles through about 30 traffic lights. Made it safely, and didn't stall or mess anything up! I've rode dirt bikes so I guess that helps
Love watching you learn Nikki 💓 you're inspiring, not only as a female Rider but also a petite female Rider 😊
Thank you for the kind words!!! 💕 - Nikki
@@DanDanTheFireman you're welcome 😊
Watching this pumping myself up for my first ride on the road after getting my permit. She did so good and you guys communicate so well I love it! It gave me some confidence honestly!
So ? How did you do ?
I got so much second hand excitement from watching this! I wanna go riding right now with my bf but it's 1am and he's sleeping x(
The relationship dynamics between you and your wife are entertaining to watch. I enjoyed very much
I've been so nervous because I scheduled class for myself in two weeks. Seeing this helped me a little.
I love the way she talks herself through everything !
Man she rocked this. I am a new rider myself (1 week in since endorsement) and it’s good to see reinforcement from a fellow new rider of proper technique. Dan it’s like you’re our personal friend 👍
I'm picking up my first bike in the morning, an Indian Scout, and these videos of you coaching your wife have been sooooo beneficial for a beginner rider like me. Seeing all the questions I have as a new rider being lived out by her and answered by you is priceless info.
Your video works very well when you have a good patient mentor and a well listened student ! Keep up, you guys are great team
Best teacher ever ! You're supportive and telling her what she has to do plain and simple 👍🏻 I subscribed .
For body lean angle. She should slightly lean forward toward the grip she counters-steers with.
Example-Making right turn, intentionally lean her head/upper body toward your right hand. That helps body position, and head angle in turns.
And for cornering, outside-inside-outside method, which you can use the whole lane, or even use on lane position 2, edge of 1, to the edge of 3.
My MSF instructor told us to kiss the mirror. That helps keep your body position.
MCRider puts out some good info too.
At least in my area, outside inside outside can be dangerous on a lot of curves. We have tractors coming around turns and on their left turn often times if you are entering a turn outside, you will get clipped by the trailer that is over the center line more often than not
As an inexperienced rider (so far only ridden alone twice, due to work and weather constraints), i have loved watching a newbie be coached like this. It makes me feel waaaay better about being nervous, cuz its ok. Thank you so much for doing this, i learned more from this than a person with lots of experience just talking.
Amazing instructor. I wish I had those big open roads here in my city to practice on, I've been learning through my neighborhood.
Her point of view with your feed back is next level useful, FYI. As a person who generally learns better by doing, there's almost a strange feeling like you're talking directly to me about my own riding -- its funny how things immediately make so much more sense with this kind of context. I've watched a lot of your videos and really appreciate them as a new rider. Thanks for the great work.
These videos are so inspiring to me. Just got my permit and hoping to do MSF soon. I'm also a very tiny woman so this video (while giving me crazy vicarious anxiety) is so freaking amazing for me to see! She's a badass :)
Does anyone else not only learn about riding on this channel.....Dan teaches us how to be a better human!
Nikki did good on her first time out. Great job and keep it up.
She's progressing really well! Thank you for the kind words
Thanks Nikki for talking while you are processing these turns... I like that you where saying “Look through the turn, stay in the middle, push with your left” those thoughts would be exactly what everyone would be thinking during all this so it was great that you were saying what we were thinking. I’ll remember that when I take my first ride.
Being a newbie rider myself with only two shorter trips under the belt I know exactly how she felt (I think) during those turns where she almost crossed the lines. You can feel that you’re not turning enough, but at the same time you’re scared stiff about making any movements at that speed that will make the bike go upright and possibly leaning the wrong way. I guess the only thing you can do is build up confidence with practice.
Corners are my worst fear and especially right corners for some reason🇸🇪
Well done! I know the feeling only too well - this was my husband and I out together on my first few rides a couple of weeks ago! It is nice to have a wing man to look out for you. At the top of my wishlist are the helmet intercoms, though - we've had a couple of minor mishaps where we lost each other in traffic. Thanks for the video and happy riding!
God I wish my husband was as patient as you are and I like how you let her know the route. My husband was yelling at me in my helmet and it made me more nervous. I ended up turning around and going home. He kept telling me to just “go somewhere.” I know how it feels to be the learning wife and it makes you extra nervous because you don’t wanna fk up. Good job man.
Sheena chante’ my hubby is the same way at first, impatient and critical. Made me more nervous and Almost made me dread to ride. But I’m getting more comfortable and confident now. This video was very calm and patient
LegOver Lass that’s awesome! I have a little more confidence alone now and I decided I just gotta go alone and make sure I let him know I’m out on the bike. He’s too mean & makes me feel anxious. I almost quit riding. I know when I make a mistake and not having someone yell at me while I recover has made me not give up riding. 🖤
@legover lass that’s what I’m gonna have to do. Eventually start riding alone. That’ll build my confidence ❤️
I'd tell him to go to hell
@@hollyrafford3946 lmmfao 🤣✊🏾
I feel your anxiety. I've never ridden and went out and bought a 2016 FatBoy S. I'm super stuggling with turning from stops and not going wide. I took the MSF and passed but it's just the basics. It was a 500 Street I learned on to a 1800 screaming eagle. You my friend give me hope. I am so focused on doing figure 8s in a parking lot and turns from stops. I'm just gotta pick a good route. Push and look. Do not look at that thing that wants to kill you
I'm taking my BRC next weekend. Never drove a bike before. Watching this video gives me major butterflies, but I already know your voice will be going through my head once I get riding! Great job.
Great video! I had my first ride on the public roads a few weeks ago and watching this brought all the emotion back. I could totally relate to those sighs Nikki made after the first stop. lol Unfortunately for me, when heading home, I was feeling a little too confident and pushed myself on a low speed tight turn and laid my bike down. Sucked. Fortunately I was just a little banged up, but totally mobile. And my bike just scratched on the fairing and bars a bit, but otherwise still ran fine. I've been riding since without issues. Getting better day by day. That crashed actually helped me to stay aware of my skill level and caused me to realize my mistake so I don't make it at higher speeds. Anyway, I really enjoyed watching this video and reliving my first ride through Nikki. :-)
Awww so cool to ride together and even more cool is they can chat while rolling...thats a vantage point
Don't feel bad dude. Even as just an observer, watching the video, I got the willies seeing her get close to the lines.
What a refreshing video after watching your factual and sobering "bikes are deadly" video. I'm 41 and ride dirt bikes in the desert / trails and am looking to buy my first cruiser. Love your videos man. Thanks for doing this for the community.
You both did a great job. Congrats, this is a very good way to get someone started riding. I would add just one tip. Avoid early apexes, like you coached "you started turning a bit too early." Newbies have a tendency to do that. Reinforce that a bit more because, one day, you'll approach an unfamiliar turn and surprise yourself at a bit too much speed. If you are conditioned for later apexes, you will tend to slow down more if you can't see the exit of the corner. I hope that helps.
Ima liking the double camera work.👍
I’m so happy the man teaching me is chill like this! Picking it up is easy when you’re comfortable enough to ask what you need to ask, and aren’t afraid to mess up! 🙌🏻 got my first bike Saturday and love your vids !
I love these ones where you're teaching Nikki to ride, you are so patient with her. . My wife has ridden with me several times, but I do not think she would ever want to ride her own bike..... maybe someday, we'll see
Appreciate the video my man. I just picked up a 1200 Sportster today and I’ve never been on a bike besides very limited experience on a dirt bike. This was a great lesson for me.
10:50 - That´s exactly the point. There are several additional advantages to ride behind your pupil. You are better suited to tell off traffic from the rear. You can always guide your pupil through the intercom. You will also be able to tell your pupil if something is coming up in their blindspots. Golden example of how to teach a new rider, Dan - I want to show this to Norwegian riders too.
A neat little trick for new riders to negotiate slow turns like roundabouts or intersections, is to drag the rear brake, and stay off the front brakes. It feels a lot more confident doing it that way.
I’ve just started watching lots of your videos. I just bought my fist bike. Haven’t ridden since high school. Long time ago. Thanks for all you info😀
I absolutely love your riding videos. Thank you so much for uploading this. I've had my Navi for a month now, riding dirty, and learning things on my own. It's my first motorcycle/mini moto. I have my MSF course in 2 weeks through H-D and pretty nervous but now after watching many of your beginners videos, my whole perspective has changed from riding nervously to now having fun, and being loose. My friends who are experience riders, who has never taken an MSF, tell me to lean my body. But now I will do the pushing motion instead of leaning. Please keep doing what you're doing, and keep making videos for beginners to feel more comfortable riding, and especially safely. God bless.
Also, I'm still nervous on going past 45 as it feels incredibly fast, which is scary. I've driven manual cars all my life but on a motorcycle is a whole another experience. I don't really care for fast bikes. Eventually I want to get a Grom, and a Rebel 1100.
This was really good to see, got my endorsement a couple of years ago and soon after that I had to undergo knee surgery and a complete replacement the yr after and now im so excited to say bought my 1st bike and at the same time a little scared to hit the road for the 1st time since my endorcement. Clearly I'd love to take her out but the nerves are there. This video was clear and got a few pointers. Im planning to practice in a lot 1st and then out... talk about excited. Thank you for sharing this video.
Got my first bike about a month ago and was also nervous, I rode residential streets and back streets until I got comfortable with the bike.
Great teacher, patient and clear with the instructions. good job girl!
She's a doll and you're an awesome instructor. I wish i had someone to coach me through as well as you did. Great job guys
To edit a video from 4 cameras including a 360 one must've taken a lot of effort. Amazing job!
Congratulations from the U.K. (where we don't have nice quiet roads like that). Nikki has done amazingly well in such a short span of time. You both should be very proud. I haven't ridden a bike in 25 years but now I want to buy a Rebel and hop across the pond and join you. Keep the videos coming. :)
Fantastic content I am way older than you guys and looking to re-join the motorcycle family. This brought back memories of all the trepidation I had when starting out and like Nikki my first mentor was patient and encouraging Slowly increasing my confidence and skills. Well done Nikki I have no doubt you will get there. Stay safe and enjoy this amazing way to live
this was at the same time really exciting, chill and wholesome to watch! love your content Dan!
Awesome job Nikki. I'm glad you had fun. I wish I had a "Dan" to ride behind me like you. I also talk to myself through the turns. 👌👍👍👍👍👍
Props. I’m doing this right now with my lady and although she’s nervous...I’m 10xs more nervous for her. It’s all worth it when we get it right.
Good God man! I was nervous as hell watching that. I can't imagine how you felt being right there and being responsible for her. You did a really good job instructing her and keeping your cool. I was really hungry when I started watching this video but now I've lost my appetite. That's how nervous I was. Anyway, another great video!
When I first started riding on public roads, It was in a rural area and STILL I often had that ONE car that just had to be behind me. You quickly find out as a beginner that cars go faster than you in turns. after 2 years this is still annoying, but you must not try to ride faster. Just let them pass when you both have room, pref on a straight away.
My late husband always had me ride up front, he liked making sure I was riding properly and he could give me hints/tips. I think it made me a better rider. I’m glad to see you helping her like this as well.
Good teacher good student doesn’t get any easy than that. Well done you two!
She did a great job! I am envious. My Wife not only would never ride motorcycle she will never ride passenger on mine.
She’s ridden horses for years. Much more unpredictable than a motorcycle. Though the other drivers on the road make life unpredictable. It would be fun though. Wish she would.
l Hope She change her mind
Great job nikki, it is so much to learn in the beginning. Then it just comes natural. Keep it up!
You are a great support to her , Daniel. That is invaluable.
This is so awesome, I'm so happy she is riding on the open road. It was cool to see her progress from the beginning all the way to this video. Awesome, and she was laughing and enjoying every minute of it.
Amazing!! Teaching her to ride and doing it together :-) ... I've shared the first video to my FB friends... all the best guys !!
Nice to have a practice video and be able to refer back to it. As a novice rider, the 'counter-steer' concept is tough, she did a great job. What may help is; more lean. Being so straight up and trying to 'counter-steer', is difficult. Lean more. Hop on a bicycle and practice the lean, it's more intuitive and will transfer to the motorcycle.
Your teaching style is awesome!
First time rider girl here too. To bad I don’t have anyone to ride with and learn so this girl is doing it herself! So exiting!!!
This was perfect. From her point of view it showed a genuine reaction to how riding in traffic for the first time is terrifying. From your side absolutely perfect instructions. You're calm, give great advice and do everything for her like check traffic, remind her to put the stand down. Great video
Goodness gracious, I am sweating looking at your girl, it gave me a healthy amount of anxiety. Well done to her. Great progress. Not sure how much were you guys practising but still great progress. I am just thinking that I need to do the same with my wife. She had a bad fall (with 5mph, over a foot high fence, right on the road with traffic, got some bruises on her legs and some bloody lips) right after passing the basic test and that was last August, since then she sat only on stationary bikes and is scared like crazy. Good weather is coming so we need to find a parking lot (much larger than the previous one) to practice, but you can't find such wide roads in London. Keep it upright.
Picking up my first bike this weekend these videos are very informative and helpful. Thank you guys
Love your beginner rider videos. I just got a Vespa 150cc so even though I don’t have to shift, all the other stuff has helped me so much.
Just passed my written today!! Gonna go get a bike this Saturday and get learning!!
Can’t wait!
I’m sticking for the semi-auto
Honda super cub for my first bike 🙌🏻🙌🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Have seen some of your videos. This one motivated me to subscribe. Great coaching in advice and tone. Was helpful and informative to experience both of your reactions of a first road ride in real time.
Hey Dan...thanks for all of your great videos. I'm a returning rider and have learned a lot from them this year. It was a lot of fun watching Nikki's first major ride (I saw a lot of myself in her when I did my first major ride a few months ago). Anyway, just a few points of constructive criticism. I didn't see Nikki using her turn signals on any of the turns so I would definitely get in the habit of using them every single time you make a turn or lane change. Blinking lights make you more visible. Also, when she was coming out of the break at 11:00, she didn't come to a complete stop before turning right onto the street. And, again, no turn signal. I was taught at stop signs or red lights to come to a complete stop, foot down, signal on, look, then go.
Again, sorry to be so nitpicky and nothing personal against Nikki or you but safety should always be our number one concern as motorcyclists, especially new motorcyclists. It just takes one mistake out there. Honestly, I would spend more time just riding through quiet neighborhoods with lots of stop signs, turns, upshifting, downshifting...get all the basics under your belt going 20-30 MPH for several months...then go out onto the faster roads. But that's just me.
Thanks again for all the great videos and ride safe Nikki (and Dan)!

Love the new new camera. And she did great. Even when she had a little gravel turning in she handled it perfect,. Keep up the good work, I really felt like it was like my first time too
Thanks for posting this video. huge value in seeing literal and real time instruction and it's going to help me a ton in the future.
I still remember my first ride in traffic. My husband and I rode to the next town over and had lunch with a friend.
Just found these, and I’m definitely going to watch them all! I’ve only been riding for about a week now.
I think the most important thing to learn first, is how to break and emergency stop, great work and very well done 👍
5:40 - l absolutely love this bit! ;D
I also love how nicely you coach her, Dan - I have had some coaches like that, but I also had a few of the bad ones. You are absolutely a class one teacher! I want you to direct every class in the US, so more people could travel safely on your roads.
I just want to say, you're the reason why I'm getting my motorcycle and license! THANK YOU SIR
Great video! This is exactly where I am on my journey. Hearing her self talk is what I do too.. as of today I have 210 miles under my belt of actually driving my motorcycle. and I can total relate to her anxiety and trying to trust the bike on corners and stopping and starting properly .. most videos I've watched have seemed out of my league, but this one really hit home. Thanks for the video. so refreshing not to feel so alone in this new venture. I realize this was posted in 2018, but I'm see this for the first time and makes me think I'm on the right track. I will do some more digging on your channel for more vids like this... Thanks you DanDan the Fireman !
I feel her excitement!! Today was my FIRST DAY on the main streets with my 2007 Honda Shadow Spirit 750. My buddy who has more experience than I tagged along with me for safety coaching, had a blast!
Nice video, you guys have great empty roads. Come to England and it’s traffic everywhere.
Only rode twice so far so good to see everyone needs saddle time to build confidence.
👍
Good good good. I like to hear you talking Nikki about what you're thinking.
Really fine job young lady, and Dad, you're doing a great job coaching. Hat's off to both of you. Be safe.
Dan great teacher! And already know youll be great in the delivery room lol pushing is repeated alot , she is awesome!
Practice in parking lots for slow take offs with one foot on the break. She’s doing great I remember my first ride. You are a patient teacher. That makes it easier to learn.
Man did this vid bring back a flashback. I'd forgotten that when going out on the road for the first time, especially in traffic with intersections, it can be a bit nerve racking. She did a great job and damn in he isn't a great coach! Good video man.
Such a great coach. Your lucky to have him!!!! Stay safe!!
This isn't a woman thing either, this is how I feel after being a weekend warrior after the MSF course.
Phenomenal coaching, wish we all had a DDTF riding alongside us as we gain seat time.
In AZ, you Have to be careful of sand in the turns. Last yr , a female friend took a sharp turn and the bike slid out from under her. She broke her back and was paralyzed from the waist down - after being in the hospital for two months, she went home and committed suicide three months later. She was an experienced rider of over 20yrs.
I had my first solo ride this week on my 50 mile commute to work. I was terrified the whole way. Made it 85% of the way there before it broke down and had to have it towed away because of a bad alternator =c
Oh man, I remember taking my bike to the street for the first time, 30km/h felt like 80 haha. I only went around the block once and nearly shat myself at a stop sign just overwhelmed by two brakes and downshifting.
