This will help out a lot if you pay a bit more attention to what you're doing and how the bike is responding SLOW THOSE HANDS DOWN! Slow hands, happy riders :) linktree/GregWidmar

Motorcycles are not for you if you're a new rider and you don't already understand this concept

You explained this so bad
Comment from : @Lillyfoxsocial

Slow is smooth and smooth is fast
Comment from : @Jaybe-x

Correct me if I am wrong but While downshifting by revmatching one should just dump the clutch Right? (I mean releasing the clutch abruptly)

Comment from : @toehoker9199

I never have stalling issues… it must be because I don’t have a clutch on my electric motorcycle 🤓

Thank you!
Comment from : @onlymeentertainment

Just like foreplay before the act Makes the ride really smooth🙃😏
Comment from : @richardmichael7523

As someone who's started riding after drving a car for years, I love how the advice for both vehicles (both what I give out to friends learning to drive and what I've picked up learning to ride) essentially boil down to the same things Smooth and progressive imputs, give yourself plenty of time to do anything etc
Comment from : @zoeywyllie1411

Mine tends to habe a lot of engine braking so something id like to add is sometimes realizing that clutch removes the dive and pull in both directions to smoothe ssssmmmmooootheee out the whole deal

Thank you 🙏
Comment from : @mehditurki1375

i ride electric, at the beginning i used to place all of my thumb at the fixed plastic part of the throttle to further modulate throttle feel and limit my hand movment so i would never get whisky throttled
Comment from : @Jasonjordan-f7r

There is one thing about the clutch that doesn't get mentioned enough Not only does the clutch has to be let out slowly, it has to be let out slowly THE WHOLE WAY I've noticed in countless videos of people crashing when learning to ride because they start letting out slowly and as soon as the bike starts to move even a little bit, they dump the clutch causing them to lose control Its important that it gets let out slowly but needs to be explicitly stated that it needs to be slow the entire time even when starting to move
Comment from : @AdamNorton-r1u

"Slow your hands down" I like that a lot The exact opposite of what I was doing as a beginner Well, I'm STILL a beginner but whatever Good stuff!!
Comment from : @BillyPrice-v7b

Best explanation 😊 Thank you so much 👍

Comment from : @LAIRDO-

Best new rider advice never get near streets without at least 1 yr in dirt bikes in dirt Learn to ride in safest area as possible and traffic and concrete is not it Smaller lighter bike can fall a bunch not die or even get hurt bad in dirt slower than 1000 cc sport bike on road I road 8 yrs from 6 to 14 before getting on street, had I not i would have ended up like a few guys I went to high school with first bikes were street bike more than a few did not live long enough to graduate Cars and trucks are no place to learn basic riding skills One mistake on street can kill you, i made a thousand in the dirt and never even broke a bone Dirt is softer than concrete, trees do not move and try to run you over never had a bush cut me off
Comment from : @RT22-pb2pp

Nice vid ! My coach got on me more than once for using two fingers to brake he suggested 4 fingers and I quote “ squeeeeeeze it like you are squeezing the juice out a grape fruit” he mentioned it was a bad habit for riders but I found it quicker because while on or off throttle my two fingers were always up Comments suggestions?
Comment from : @BAU111

Comment from : @unboxing-u2g

On my very first motorcycle ride I got 5 x combo:br1 I did tried to learn motorcycle by myself ( I am very DIY man )br2 I was driving 650cc thumper (nx650 Dominator) br3 I dropped clutch while opening throttle br4 I did wheeliebr5 As I DID NOT do flat wrist, wheelie caused whiskey throttle I ended on the ground after hitting light pole at the end of the street while driving on back wheelbrSpent few days in intensive care unit, few months of recoverybrPlease do not repeat my mistakes - start with 125cc and instructor
Comment from : @ctrlz4439

I am a new rider Bought a HD iron 883 I can say that during the MSF course I had an issue with whiskey throttling Fast forward a few months later its not a problem However the wind has really messed with me almost to the point that im hesitant to go very far Ive spoken to several experienced riders and know that i just need to relax a bit but still im having an issue with it
Comment from : @leeshepherd8486

When you’re at a stop, do you have both feet down, only left foot down, or only right foot down?
Comment from : @bikebuny5280

Stop being a sarcastic douche and just give the advice
Comment from : @MrTony8584

How do you use the front brake at zero throttle without having extreme engine braking or the bike trying to stall?
Comment from : @dylanrodene1595

Good advice, thanks!
Comment from : @gypsyjessye

Now do a video going fast and show us plz
Comment from : @angell3578

wait do i cant rev match? because i blip the throttle quick when i do lol
Comment from : @dqitwithbrad

Why is it not a thumb throttle? Just sayin😂
Comment from : @jasontroccoli3732

Awesome man
Comment from : @banushankar566

The flat wrist position on the throttle was my biggest problem first time ever on a bike, my hand was forward and when I grabbed the front brake I gave it the juice too It was the biggest mental block for me to get back on to learn the right way
Comment from : @ReaperNola

Don't forget the best advice for new riders, don't start on a 1250 BMW!
Comment from : @gerrybailey447

Solid info! Picked up my R6 a few days ago, first big bike Background in motocross, obviously very different bikes but respect the bike and you won't get thrown off 😅brbrAlso my instructor here in the UK says all 4 fingers on the clutch or breaking thoughts? I'm used to 2 fingers etc
Comment from : @DeMotoR6

Snapping throttle while sitting still is sort of “tradition” from back in the old carburetor days when goosing the gas was necessary to stay running when cold Guys thought it sounded cool Today there is ZERO reason to turn throttle except when going forward It’s also better for emissions and noise to use only when necessary brAlso a sign of the times to have to explain the safe use of a clutch
Comment from : @Diap842IV

Wait, this is common knowledge, right?
Comment from : @BramBergs

Do you actually do Jiu-Jitsu that why you call the channel that?
Comment from : @warriorloyal3621

it's weird seeing items we were using back in club racing 20 years ago (that we essentially made ourselves), now standard equipment on bikes Those bar end / hand guards have evolved from just a small piece off the end of the bar, to getting larger and curving back inwards (MotoGP and WSBK started using them around a decade ago) and now they have evolved to completely wrap back in to the triple clamp areabrWe originally did it for those small, low speed spills to try and prevent the clutch and brake levers from snapping off, as the bike slid on its side Anything to save money in the club racing scene😂
Comment from : @LloydM

Who does this anyway? People do this? No way
Comment from : @gsxeddexsd9192

Ride fast and only use rear brake!
Comment from : @oletreed4230

I always learn from your tips! Kudos!
Comment from : @souhait15

"Slow hands" is a great concept I think your channel taught me
Comment from : @michaelmaier7262

Question won't easing off the clutch slowly increase the risk of losing traction with the back tyre and you can end up lowsiding?
Comment from : @nathanbilly8774

another excellent vid! thanks man!
Comment from : @DiagolonRider

at 1:21 learned that the hard way :D:D:D just busted the headlight nothing morethere are ton of riders using throttle like an on-off switch
Comment from : @tomast9034

Do I also need to release the clutch slowly when up shifting?
Comment from : @kaneop9871

I use to always gun it my first ride was a wheelie 😅
Comment from : @frankieromantv7653

What can possible go wrong when releasing the brake fast? I'd love to know
Comment from : @gdevelek

Dude you came in clutch with this short video I recently started riding again after two years and this helped my confidence
Comment from : @uchiha6325

you have no play with that throttle
Comment from : @empanada7

Motorcycle taught me to be smooth: helps a lot during driving as well
Comment from : @K113-A

I use the finger rolling technique for the throttle I feel i have better control
Comment from : @Kenicavus

What about when rev matching changing down gears? If I ease the clutch out, the revs have dropped too much by the time the clutch is fully released
Comment from : @joshdix0n

Exactly Take it slow No need to rush The point is for safety precautions
Comment from : @mii69420

Man I want to buy this bikebrIt costs 35 million or 4 million in Indian currencybrI'll buy this bike but hey I'm a GEN Z guybrWe want everything quicklybrSo no patience is kinda killing mebrThe wait that I have to do to get this bike is huge

Salute to Motojitsu, a fellow military vet here Riding is an art a skill a discipline
Comment from : @shanghei22

Your “dimmer switch” analogy is sage advice Great video as usual Your channel is one of the best 😎🔥
Comment from : @nightfury6836

Kind of sad that americans have to make videos how to ride motorcycles 😭
Comment from : @amarsahinovic1347

Thanks
Comment from : @HiBaby_Gaming

The biggest problem with snapping the clutch lever out and chopping the throttle (besides the danger) is that you will never have any chance of getting the feel of how you should be controlling your bike By easing the clutch out and rolling the gas on and off slowly you will start developing a feel of how they work together and and you can start getting better
