Comment from : @Apex-Kilo

This was the most informative beginner motorcycle video I’ve ever seen! You managed to cover all the things that other video creators fail to go over and exactly what I needed Thank you so much, I’ve been looking for a video like this for so long!
Comment from : @dominickwick2638

yes higher rpm more than 3000 is good to engine
Comment from : @cristhycantik8856

I got into riding dirt bikes this summer always kinda knew how to drive a manual bike but didn’t fully grasp it now thays it’s winter I can ride that bike with the best of em, but I had no idea street bikes could go that high in speed without having to change and I’m not just talking about his 😭 even just like a cbr 300 being able to do around the 40 mph range blows my mind
Comment from : @WillWise-u4q

to whom it may concern, going into 2nd gear from a full stop is easier said than done ty
Comment from : @ivancardenas1658

Dude, what a great video! So damn educational and super helpful for newer riders out there I wish more youtube channels did videos like this maybe even an on screen graphic of what gear ur in while making a regular daily ride w/ commentary Thank you!!!
Comment from : @spencerwilliams8248

This video was very helpful in answering questions I didn't know who to ask Thank you
Comment from : @user-yr5yl6zt5l

So I still have a question… when coming to a full stop from a high gear you HAVE to shift down to first gear and hold the clutch and apply both brakes? Or do you shift into neutral?
Comment from : @lmggarcia2921

Nice videosaved to my motorcycle playlist Glad I found your channel
Comment from : @ElementFreedive

This generic video made me laugh, it really does not apply to my 1972 R5 two stroke
Comment from : @Dannyshouseofcards

This was super helpful Really appreciated all the examples
Comment from : @markoleary1120

92mph on first gear is crazy to me
Comment from : @luandersonferreira

is it possible to down shift without pressing clutch?
Comment from : @aminhoque6884

“Cruising speed if you live in Texas it’s probably 100mph” you absolutely nailed that one 🤣👌🏻
Comment from : @julianortiz2819

Is it not best to change with clutch
Comment from : @scottrogan4342

Comment from : @faddy

Who cares abt your gears it's better to teach not be taught ?
Comment from : @pablojunior323

I'm so happy I learned manual on a car This thing is essentially the same which is cool, the only thing I have to work on is my balance and awareness
Comment from : @yevolution

Comment from : @mike1967sam

Comment from : @ameerkriel3258

How did you not get a felony speeding rap going 130mph I go 60 in a 55 I get a! ticket
Comment from : @TheTacticalBarrage

7:00 "You do not go into 2nd gear AT ALL Not when you are taking off" 5:20 bTries to take off in 2nd/b 🤔🤔🤔 Hmmmm
Comment from : @mysticxl3gend999

great video for real world expamples
Comment from : @MeowMuscleTv

So I did notice you never hit the clutch upon downshifting/engine braking Is that unnecessary? brI’m a newbie and maybe thinking manual cars lol
Comment from : @georgeivanwashington4188

Bro hates his clutch
Comment from : @sergiohannover

Honestly this was THEEE best video describing real world events with shifting or down shifting I have ever seen!
Comment from : @hectoralbarran5775

I have enjoyed every bit of this video So far the best video I have watched on shifting gears Very helpful Can you do a video on shifting gears on hilly and sloppy surfaces?
Comment from : @ambroseogwal694

I still have a doubt should we wait till the rpm indicator blink or can we shift gear according to the speed we want brIn Which way we get great performance and mileage
Comment from : @pravan006

how do you downshift without using the clutch?

Comment from : @sevenplus739

You are the best man Thank you
Comment from : @sevenplus739

I am not familiar with anything only my tears 😭😭😭😭
Comment from : @JesusGodHolySpirit3

What gear would you put the bike in going down a steep hill? 1st?
Comment from : @JesusGodHolySpirit3

I notices you don't pull the clutch while going down or up on the gear, is that possible on all bikes?
Comment from : @abdulkareemahmed5919

Does starting from 3rd gear not hurt the bike? Also can you downshift while you are stopped at the stop sign before continuing thru it? Thank you for the video man!
Comment from : @oarymma

Still pretty new but I’ve seen several people say engine braking is terrible for your engine Is that not the case?
Comment from : @davidmiller159

Comment from : @oscarhernandez7505

Thank you for this video I’m gonna watch it a few times before I go thru my neighborhood Are you supposed to hold the clutch wen going around curves or turns slowly I’m scared I’m going to kill it making turns in my neighborhood
Comment from : @austinbrown2498

As a new rider, when I approach a corner I downshift , and before turning the bike I keep it in the friction zone for a slow maneuver Is it advisable?
Comment from : @ousseynouguisse9910

Good ol San Diego
Comment from : @deucetrue46

I'm on my first ever bike, and the manual happened to tell me when to shift It's an Indian Chief Bobber, and the instructions say:brbr1st - up to 15 mphbr2nd - up to 25 mphbr3rd - up to 35 mphbr4th - up to 45 mphbr5th - up to 50 mphbr6th - >50 mphbrbrAs a beginner rider, I was relieved to have the instructions tell me when to shift Check your manual, it may tell you best practices for shift points Every bike is different
Comment from : @J_Conner

This is excellent
Comment from : @kusali11

Two Questions from a basic rider learning:br1) You demoed a coupled of times that we don't technically need to drop to 1st gear, could we technically do that quite a bit?br2) What damage could be done if one was to learn to do that all the time?
Comment from : @warmad2596

Thanks for this brotha Been riding for years now but still like to brush up on my skills
Comment from : @chillwithkea

Very thorough video covering mistakes and possibilities of incorrect gear shifting and i've watched a lot of tutorials as a new rider Thanks!
Comment from : @xavierx93

Newbie here, 2wks in and teaching myself to ride on the road after getting my Ls This is absolutely amazing, ty for Ur help and tips! Tysm ❤️
Comment from : @Bhadreidy

Out of the thousands of videos online this was the first one that I actually commented on regarding motorcycles As a new 500 ninja rider myself I thought it was like a car that you come to a stop in neutral that you do not go into first gear if you're rolling Thanks for the information Stay safe
Comment from : @DaddyFromTn

Your bike is beautiful New rider here been watching your videos non stop Been learning a lot You rock man!
Comment from : @joshursino7203

Comment from : @jamjam999_

I have Rsv4 2018 model, Holding the clutch while red light is for 120 seconds makes my hand paining, shifting in N is what is do most of the time in dead traffic or Red light
Comment from : @Ash-hk7sb

10:03 tire is not rolling
Comment from : @asunaxyuna4847

I'm in California everyone doing around 75 he is doing 81 and traffic in front of him is pulling away from him lmao and you should never be breaking in a corner
Comment from : @aocleader7950

So you don’t need to pull the clutch in to slow down in gears? Just some foot break and kick it down? Confused me a little when you didn’t pull it in Awesome video though👍🏼
Comment from : @jswolf67

How was he able to change gears without pressing down on the clutch?
Comment from : @renk5000

Comment from : @gokulselvan9953

Best Video for beginners like me my instructor told me none of that before i went on the streets with him
Comment from : @ownagebox

I love this guy explaining very clear
Comment from : @prince_macco

Best video !
Comment from : @sarkiskopushyan

So one thing I'm noticing is he's putting around and for those who are learning to try to comprehend when to shift he should not be in third gear putting around reasons why motorcycles are designed to run at high RPMs when they are at low RPMs you are putting more stress on the cylinders this is kind of an onion layer peeled back that most people don't understand
Comment from : @mattcremers8452

Engine braking nonsense I would rather use brake pads and rotors they are cheaper than gear box
Comment from : @abc-un4xz

this is san diego isnt it?
Comment from : @carlosbreach8492

Im confused when your switching gears why aren't you pressing down the clutch? Arent you supposed to?
Comment from : @ferdinand2365

I have not ridden a bike but I am thinking about it I can drive manual in a car I don’t understand how you can slow down and downshift without pulling the clutch I literally saw you slow down from 4th to 1st without pulling the clutch In a car you need to pull the clutch to downshift but in a motorcycle you can downshift without engaging the clutch??brbrEdit: sorry I see you said you have a special type of shifter
Comment from : @AL-id8of

Thank You So Much 🙏🏾
Comment from : @hakeemroys497

Maybe I'm that much of a noob, but how were you downshifting without your hand on the clutch when you had your hands on the tank? Or is that the point? It's forcing the engine to run lower and cause "engine braking"?
Comment from : @lordfordification

Great video terrible advice
Comment from : @trudat1260

Comment from : @evase3
