Yeah he really over thinks motorcycle life in general. He always puts riders in a category always forgetting that he’s THAT motorcycle rider that we all make fun of on the low.

I've been riding for just over 7 years, and I can agree with him regarding the safety points (unstrapped helmet, proper boots, and OEM tires) but everything else is personal preference. You wanna waddle walk in the parking lot? go at it man, who cares if people think its silly. Do you have control over your bike? that is all that matters. If you are casually riding, who cares where your feet are positioned. Can you respond quickly (i.e. shift gears or brake). if yes then keep doing you. If you are riding more aggressively, then yes you should tuck in and have a more "athletic" footing. Also, 11min video and 7 sponsored ads. GTFO.

First, I wanna address one thing you said, foot position doesn't matter. It really does, my first wreck was having my heels on the pegs feet dangling, did a little turn, and my foot got hit, dragged down into a low side. Completely avoidable if I was on the balls of me feet like normal. Further, just because you seem mad, there was only one sponsored ad. The rest are for his store (you can't sponsor yourself) and were references to things you should buy, not saying buy it from him. It felt more like he was just showing that the casual boots were acceptable and showing a range of boots up. Honestly, if he has something on his store I would normally buy at Revzilla, I get it from him just to get the free bike entries, since its all the same price/shipping. I got a cardo and a riding hoodie there, I didn't like the shoe options he had, so I just got something else, no skin off my dick.

I disagree with a lot of things said here, I'm perfectly fine wearing my sneakers. They are not high tops but they are comfortable. I waddle my bike sometimes, especially when turning around in a parking lot or something when there's not enough room to actually make the turn. I also think a hydration pack is unnecessary as I usually don't ride for more then an hour without stopping too fuel up and have a coffee and a drink of water. I usually plant 2 feet on the ground at stop lights because you never know when a gust of wind is gonna hit you and you lose balance, I think you are just being really judgmental and kind of an asshole. Ride how you want too and don't try to force it onto someone else, I think everybody should ride how they feel comfortable. What matters in the end is you make home alive.

Agreed with most of that, I just approach the traffic light a bit differently. I have my left foot down, left hand holding the clutch, right foot on brake and right hand ready to go on the throttle. That way I can just get off the line quickly. Though if I'm a few cars back, I do pop it in neutral and put both feet on the ground and relax my hands. So I can see where you're coming from.

Some of what he said definitely only really applies to certain activities. If you're just cruising around or tooling along the highway I don't think you really need a bcakpack baby bottle. The same goes for footwear. For commuting or cruising around as long as your footwear isn't flip-flops or slipons (and has something fairly grippy for a sole) you're probably going to be okay. Waddling the bike also has a lot to do with what kind of bike you're riding and where. The foot position is also extremely bike-specific in addition to what's appropriate/necessary for what the rider is actually trying to do. The points about the helmet and tires are spot on. Seems like a fair portion of this video is the presenter being an elitist douchecanoe. I've noticed this before on some of this channel's vids.

He doesn't have time for "weekend riders". absolutely not. it doesn't matter if you are a licensed motorcycle mechanic and have rode every day for the past 30 years, he is better than you and knows more about bikes than you'll ever know. I mean if he didn't he wouldn't have a channel right?....Honestly I liked yammie up until I saw him talking down to other riders who disagreed with him and he called them weekend riders when he doesn't know them. we get it Yam, you make money talking about motorcycles after reading the stats on the companies.

In the marines we call “boot” to whoever wears a camelbak. Although when you go adventure riding it is absolutely necessary and super practical.

Lesson 1: don't ever let someone tell you you look like a noob on your bike. You can learn to improve and change things you might be doing in a technically wrong or clumsy way. But don't change things that work for you just because somebody tells you it makes you look like a noob. The real noob or wannabe is the person telling you that. Just enjoy your motor and improve your technique if you think it is necessary.

I really only really agree with the helmet strap, and keeping good tires. Not everyone can afford hydration packs, shoes only for riding (you should wear some type of boot though) and everyone leaves their blinker on sometimes, waddling is fun and takes stress away

You shouldn't. Being cool. and Looking badass doesn't just come from how you make yourself look on a motorcycle. it comes from the comfort and confidence of how you ride.

Safety is the biggest issue no matter how long you've been riding. You let your guard down and it might be the last time you let your guard down. Situational awareness and constantly assessing threats at ALL times cannot be understated. I've been riding for 11 yrs now and had bit of a scare at highway speed a month ago. I was following a bit too close and when the car up ahead rapidly slowed down. When I braked my back tire briefly locked😳

well ive been riding for 30 years, i wear flip flops and shorts, i carry a water bottle instead of a hydration pack, i ride any way my feet are comfortable and ill mod my bike any way i want. and the true mark of a "noob" rider is making fun of the way other riders ride. the point is to enjoy yourself not be a follower

Honestly, focus on riding safely, shifting gears confidently, and (especially) staying out of the way of other traffic. Imho, beginners don't have attention to spare for worrying about what other people think.

So much for feeling free on a bike 😂

Yeah, I do agree with many of the other respondents...the words 'condescending' and 'judgmental' come to mind when watching this vid. I am a new rider, just made 1000 miles four days ago. What other people think of me is none of my business. Too bad the people that are following this advice (such as foot placement, waddle walking, tires) do not have the confidence to not give a hoot if someone thinks they are new at riding or not. Safety is paramount...if the rider is comfortable and safe in operating the vehicle, that is more important that what yammie noob or anyone else thinks of them. Who gives a waddle? PS: I prefer a water bottle to the hydration packs, and always ride with one. Jeez!

And will cancel after a turn after I'm well into 3rd or 4th gear. I once read about them being based on lean angle, distance traveled and wheel speed and rely on the tsm sensor. Maybe Harley has played around with how they work over the years

And an easy way of spotting someone who rides only a supersport once a week is watching a yamie video. "Staying on the ball of your feet" at all times is something no one does because it gets tiring, cramped and is actually not needed unless you're carving through a canyon. Also wearing motorcycle boots at all times is not viable or comfortable if your motorcycle is actually your only or your main form of transportation. That means you need to get off your bike, go to school, work, do some walking, go to some kind of activity, go on a date, go to the movies etc. Thinking that wearing sneakers on your bike is a "noob thing" just goes to show you don't really ride your motorcycle. Also "not wobbling" just to show off to your imaginary friends is stupid. When the time's right and your confidence is boosted it'll happen all by itself and you should definitely do it whenever you feel uncomfortable, especially if you're two up, filtering through traffic. Terrific job sounding like a judgemental noob on a video talking about noob behavior.

I have to speak up about the sneaker thing, a lot of boots are very thick (abrasion resistance) so it’s very cumbersome to dip down under the shifter for gearing up. Sneakers (vans) have a much smaller profile so shifting is super easy. If you spring for the ComfyCush models it’s also very comfortable. While I don’t condone riding without full proper gear, I have to say that gear which impedes your ability to manipulate the bike is a bad idea.

My friend and I just got into riding motorcycle in recent months as alternative transportation to our main vehicles. So far with all of the recent rides we have done we have not seen anyone wearing a hydration bag like this fool preaches about. So I would take anything he says with a huge block of salt. So far all my friend and I wear while on rides besides required safety gear is a simple backpack to carry water bottles and whatever other small items we happen to buy when we stop to refuel our bikes and to take a break. On our travels when we've encountered large groups of other riders they were always on a larger cruiser/touring bike with saddle bags or cargo boxes. The only person we've encountered that was wearing anything on their back was another dual-sport rider like us and they also had a simple backpack.

As a sneakerhead - I'd rather have feet to put shoes on than lose them in an accident. I just toss them in my bag and put them on when I get off. My 2022 Triumph Trident 660 has autocancelling signals. It's a godsend.

@@C.K985 No, you have to burn out your clutch to be a pro rider.

The claim that you can't control the bike unless you have the balls of your feet on the pegs is just not true. Maybe on the track that is true but on the street I can see absolutely no difference in my ability to lean or maneuver my bike whether I have the balls of my feet on the pegs or if I have my feet moved down with the heel pressed against the pegs. It makes no difference other than it is less comfortable and talks longer for me to reach the gear shift and the rear brake when I am on the balls of my feet. It has been over 20 years since I took my AMA course, but I don't recall anyone talking about that during the course. I don't even know where this is coming from. As far as the hydration equipment, I have owned my current bike since I bought it new in 2004 and have put over 42,000 miles on it nearly all done below the Mason Dixon line and the large majority of it in the summer. I have never once had a camel back or any hydration equipment on me and have never once felt the need to have such. I will get tired of riding the bike and want off for a few minutes to get a drink and stretch my legs long before I suffer from dehydration. Where does he get this nonsense? Lastly, telling people to buy a high performance tire is straight up stupid. High performance tires are sticky. You pay a price in both wear and gas mileage the stickier your tires are. They also get hard and don't do worth a crap in the cold and often have less tread on them making them work lousy in the rain. I have high performance tires on my sportscar. But, since I drive it in the winter, I change out the rims and tires every fall and spring and run true winter tires during the winter. To do otherwise would be totally unsafe. So, unless you live somewhere where it never gets cold or you don't plan to ride during the winter, I would advise against high performance tires on a motorcycle. Unless you are tracking it, you are giving up gas mileage, durability, and maybe safety in the cold or rain in return for extra grip you are never going to use. This video is a crock. The maker needs to take it down and try it again.

Gonna have to call out foot position on the pegs, you know how it is. Foot positioning depends on numerous factors, including adjustable peg set-up. There's even Moto GP riders who favor mid-sole and even resting their heel on the peg at all times. So keeping on the balls of your feet isn't always the best option. There's a few things to take into account that advanced riders must take into consideration. So I wouldn't call those flat footers who ride mid-sole on the pegs necessarily "noobs."

I will tell anyone I meet how inexperienced and "noob" I am, posing as a "pro" will NEVER be a goal. If a fellow rider cringes from my riding style, it'll make my day rather than concern me.
