5 Things to NEVER do on a Motorcycle

Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары

What are some things you should never do on a motorcycle, and how do we fix them?
Lets figure out why applying brakes suddenly in a corner, applying throttle as we add lean angle, riding motorcycles we don't know and riding with straight arms is a bad idea.

    I've got a buddy that I ride with occasionally. He's more skilled and rides faster than I do. He always tells me "Don't worry about keeping up. I'd rather get there first and wait for you than have to come back and shovel you off the road." I wish everyone understood this principle.

    Hi Mike! I wanted to say thank you for your great content on your channel! Out of “ALL” of the MC channels on KZread, I believe your channel is the best and absolutely the most accurate? It’s very easy to see that you have more saddle time over the rest! Much of your teachings is the same input my father gave to me when I was young. In this episode, I think number 5 is the most important! Too many times while I’m out on my RSV4 I get other riders who want to keep up? Some can but most cannot. Experienced riders need to be understanding that it takes time to be at a higher level and when we are in a situation where inexperienced riders want to join in, we need to chill so as not to kill the lesser experienced EGO rider, and we need to offer tips to make them safer and faster. I was schooled big time when I was 16 by a guy who was riding a much much more inferior bike than what I was on. I’ll never forget it! His instruction to me was humble and honest. It was at this time I told myself to leave my ego at home and take learn to do it right! I look forward to all of your next videos!

    My number one thing to never do? Not learning how to use the brake before learning how to ride. Too many people seem to think that the braking of a cycle isn't important until they get into an emergency situation and they don't react properly. Learn how to brake first, practice pulling the clutch in, rolling off the throttle and applying the brakes smoothly. Keep practicing until it becomes automatic and you'll never be caught by surprise when a car suddenly turns in front of you.

    @@Sailingintoinfinity Rolling off the throttle refers to the motion of the throttle on the grip. You roll it toward you to accelerate and roll it away from you to slow the engine speed. Slowing engine speed is a good way to slow the bike down. In an emergency, as a car suddenly changing leans ahead of you is a good example. You roll the throttle off and at the same time apply one or both brakes.

    I've ridden a number of bikes without knowing their condition first and have been pretty lucky. That said, there's something important this video neglected to mention. CHECK THE AGE OF THE TIRE. It's the last 4 digits after DOT. First 2 digits are the week of year, from 1 - 52. Second two digits are the year it was manufactured. If the tires are 4-6 years old, they're done, and shouldn't be ridden on. And that's information that can save your life on a bike.

I've been riding a long time and I do not try to keep up with my riding buddies on some roads. Most of them double or triple miles every year and they're very good riders and fast. Stay within your level of riding, nobody is going to get mad at you if you're a bit slower than them, not everyone in your group is at the same level and its okay. Ride safe.

    Hi Mike, your videos are always great. I think you are treating a lot of arguments that are not known for 70% of the riders, and that's a lot. Maybe there is one other topic that is a real tabù: the scaphoid protection on the gloves (knox, cortech adrenaline gp, icon hypersport, firstgear kinetic). A lot of us doesn't know how much can be important. I see you are wearing dainese (I live in vicenza-italy btw, that is the city of the dainese r&d and production main factory), which haven't a plastic slider, and for sure you have an opinion about and a feedback from your track friend. Your research ability sure can also help. What do you think about this? Hope you see this comment. Thank you in advance, Claudio

    Number 5 is absolutely vital! The number one thing my dad always taught me is to always ride for yourself, and nobody else. When we ride out together, we always watch each other in the mirror, and if the other person is backing off (usually me), then the other slows down to wait. It used to be more concerning when following someone else if they're the one who knows the way, but in 2022 with every phone having navigation built in, there's no excuse. Even if you do get lost from the person you were following, stop and check your own map, don't try to keep up if they're riding outside your ability.

    @@warboy1723 Hi, I crashed because I added throttle as I was increasing my lean angle. Adding throttle takes weight off the front tire and if you take weight off the front as you increase lean the front can lose grip. I was pretty stupid because I was on a track day and I was trying to get my knee down - big fail but I was ok. You can gently add throttle when you're in the middle of the corner at steady lean and then increase throttle as you start to decrease lean as you exit the corner.

    Good tips for sure. I’m an old veteran of motorcycle riding and the best advice is to take a track day lesson and go with the attitude of just learning, not racing. A good track day lesson with a reputable school will teach you about suspension dynamics and riding position. Knowledge is the key to getting the most joy from motorcycling. I had to un-learn years of bad habits. There’s also some great books by Jason Pridmore and Keith Code. Enjoy!!!

    What Mike tells you on his channel applies just as well on UK roads too. Though we do have a lot more roundabouts than you do... if you have any at all. And on those lane discipline is crucial .....as is having an eye in the back of your head. It is not being paranoid if they really are out to get you ......and just about everybody not on two wheels IS!

    I live North of Houston, TX and very rarely encounter a roundabout. But I do see them. The one I run through the most is behind St. Lukes Hospital at 242 and I-45 near The Woodlands, TX. People accustomed to 4 way stops will stop before entering it rather than yield. Other than that, it works quite nicely most days. I do wish there were more of them.
