3 days?! I really gotta practice longer. I got my bike delivered Wednesday but it’s been really cold so I haven’t been riding. I realized if I pick my feet up quickly it’s tell my brain to tell my easy to work together faster to keep the bike up. Clutching still doesn’t feel natural and I can’t take off quick enough to be on public roads. BUT I’m not stalling a lot. Riding is a lot harder than everyone said it is 😂 so much to think about

Chase this is outstanding content. I can't wait to get on my R7 when it gets here. Bro, you should start a training school.

As someone who hasn’t owned a bike yet, the biggest fear and anxiety I had was having to stop in high gear. Thank you mate so freakin much for this series

stopping in high gear is no different than low gear just get it back down to 1st when you stop & repeat the process all over when you go again lol stay safe!

4:30 good simple safety measure; pull the clutch lever whenever scary. It also helps when we stall the engine. If the engine stops, it will abruptly stop the rear wheel, unless you pull the clutch.

Just a note, the reason that front brakes are ALWAYS stronger in ALL vehicles, even if the front and rear brake discs are identical of size and type, is because as you decelerate, weight shifts towards the front (Thats why a car tips forward as you slow down). Thus the vast majority of the weight of the entire vehicle is put on the front tire, adding friction, friction slows you down. Its not because the front brake disc is larger, its because of physics. Now, on motorcycles they ALSO make the front brake disc larger, for this exact reason, because its by far the most effective location to put all your braking force in. My point is just to correct what he said. Front brake is best because of physics, not BECAUSE the brake disc is larger. But the brake disc is made larger, BECAUSE front braking is best due to physics. Even if you had the largest brake disc in the world on your rear tire, and only used your rear brake, that rear tire would have almost no friction, since all the weight would be on the front. Imagine the difference of braking on tarmac versus ice. Or imagine the rear tire slightly lifting off from the ground as you brake, even if you brake WITH the rear tire. Your rear tire is ice compared to your front, during deceleration. During acceleration, its the opposite, which is why braking INTO turns is so important, it makes sure your front tire wont skid.

@stevenmaschek7554

Just to clarify your obscure statements. (Friction is generated by the grip level available). So the misleading statement that friction is generated by extra weight on the front is not true as if you put an extra 200 pounds of weight on the front forks, that would not necessarily cause the bike to slow down without applying brakes, except for the fact that the bike would be unrideable. In Braking the grip/friction only occurs when the brakes are applied, and the laws of physics will try and keep the same velocity/momentum and the brakes are creating an opposite force to slow the tire rotation. the next part of the physics is the weight transfer to the front, which will give extra down force on the road therefore extra grip, therefore can effectively use more brake force before locking up. The back tire with less down force will have a much reduced grip level therefore less effective braking capacity. If you did not have a larger brake at the front you would be unable to have sufficient brake force to be effective, that is why the size and quality of the front brake does significantly effect the ability to brake strongly This is why all Motor bikes and all cars have much bigger braking on the front then on the back, not only because it saves money on the brakes cost but it would actually be dangerous to have the same sized brakes front and rear. Even with ABS to stop the lockups this just reduces the Braking effectiveness so lockups don't occur. As for Braking into corners the reason is that it largely helps to stabilise the Bike, stops the front from being pushed through the corner and allows the rider to setup for the corner and accelerate out again for stability, which also answers the next persons question. This also works same with cars, although is a little more complicated in front and all wheel drive models. Please if you are going to try and explain Physics do it properly!

@@Rhyme905 you should not brake thru the corner as this can cause issues with grip and stability, as you are creating 2 different kinds of competing forces (Turning and braking), can cause loss of traction

I drove stick shift car before but these videos really helped me find where everything is on a motorcycle. Not as scared gonna try two wheels for the first time :))

As a beginner rider, and yes I watch other videos but yours are always the ones I come back to. These were well done and you made it super easy to understand providing us with safety tips and even how the bike operates. All these things were excellent to learn as a beginner rider. Made me feel confident. Thank you!

Thank you all the way from South Africa. Been eyeing out getting on a motorcycle for over a year now, going to get to it in the next few months now and this video REALLY helped me a ton.

Thank you so much for creating this Learn to Ride series. I took the MSF course this weekend and passed! I had zero motorcycle experience. I watched this series for months on repeat to prepare me for what to expect. It really help me grasp the basic beginner motorcycle skills.

Thank you for all the videos! I haven't been on a bike in 25 years. I recently bought my R7 (the same bike you are on in this video) and immediately hit the streets. I thought I remembered everything from my previous riding. What an idiot move that was. I dumped and stalled the bike the same day I bought it. The second day I wrecked it and now I have $1000 in repairs. I have watched all your videos now. I feel better about riding now. Once I get my bike back from the shop, parking lot here I come! From your videos, I have learned what I was doing wrong and how to correct them. Thanks again! I will be sharing these videos with my girlfriend as well! I second the notion that you should open a training school!!

you guys are such a blessing to the rider community

I really get the feeling that you were born to teach teach, what an amazing explanation. I always had doubts about the use of the clutch. People always told me to disengage it slowly but to do it as fast as possible which makes no sense whatsoever. I now understand that this action should not be that fast if you are a begginer. You cannot run if you don't know how to walk. Thank you very much!

I wasn't expecting this collaboration. Very pleased. You and Dan have some of my favorite content.

I love this video. The way you educate on each sections is really amazing to watch. Eagerly Waiting for the next episodes.

Oh the memories! I remember looking for videos on gear shifting back in the day ( 2014 ) and there weren't that many, this is great.

Great series. For a new rider who really needs great explanation these videos have helped me a lot.

This is my first time watching because I want to start riding and I didn’t realize the similarities that riding a motorcycle and driving a standard have in common like when you were talking about emergency braking like you said pushing in the clutch and then braking like switching gears on a motorcycle is just like driving a manual car thank you so much for the video

Searched a bunch of videos and glad you made one that actually made it feel like I’m comfortable with what I learned On here. None talked about breaking and that’s what I was mostly curious about

I don't usually comment but this was insane, i've never been taught how too drive a manual and you explained it so well thank you man it means so much you have no idea!

Bro this is such good content love It so much definitely when I get a motorbike I'm gonna come back and watch them thank you for making these vids

This is a great series. I've been riding for almost a month now. All this is great information. Thanks CO2W.

thank you. after watching your very detail instructions, I was able to do every coached precisely. hat off to you for speaking clearly, and repeating streps.

I'm so glad I found this. I just bought a 2022 Scout bobber. Super new to riding. Thank you.

The more I watch these videos the more I relate them to riding a horse it may seem complicated at first but when you have the knowledge and the practice it becomes like they said second nature

I love these videos, super helpful. Along with these videos I recommend a motorcycle class in your area. I just finished mine, an intense two days of Zoom classroom instruction on Motorcycle safety (7 hours), than riding experience in a parking lot (7 hours), so two full days of instruction. Now I feel I can start riding my personal motorcycle with no fear, and allot more confidence. The class was expensive, 350 in Los Angles area, but well worth every penny. Your life might depend on it.

These videos have brought me massive peace of mind. Getting on a bike within a few months. Thank you so much :)

You guys have gotten so good with your vids. Kudos for sure

Mans out here making a whole MSF course that's better than MSF. Good stuff!

You are freaking awesome!!! I'm in the process of studying to do the written test and then booking my course. I am so glad I came across your series. You've explained it in a way by brain can actually comprehend. Are you a teacher by chance?! lol. Well done sir!

It can never be explained more than that, you nailed it.

Man this parking lot is beautiful for a good practice day

This is my go to video bro! I'm going to get my license soon. been watching thiss off and on for the last 2 years! Finally getting to a space where I can get a bike man and im too excited for the journey! Thanks for this content my dude

Nice, Chase your doing a fabulous job on the instructional video. It is very similar to driving a manual car or truck. It's just now your doing it on a two wheel vehicle.

Great that you stress practice. All riders of all skill levels should practice. It's one thing that is neglected after we get our licenses. I purposefully go out to a nearby parking lot and practice my slow speed maneuvers. Helps a ton with confidence and makes me a better rider.

just purchased my honda grom to spend a few months getting down the controls and riding. thank you for this video

One of the best riding videos on KZread. Thanks

2 things I would add for beginners when stopping 1. Always make sure your handlebars are straight when you stop to prevent the bike dropping 2. Brake with both front and rear until the last 2-3 feet and finish the stop with just the rear brake.

Love the series i just bought this exact R7 2022 same color and everything 😂

I love this series.

What a fantastic tutorial series 👏 this is, 5 stars & hat tip to you sir for putting this together! I've already been through this stuff in my learning process, but man I wish I had seen this before the first time on a bike - incredibly valuable information for any new rider! It was a bit easier for me to learn to ride a bike due to already having clutch work from riding 4 wheelers & manual transmission cars & trucks - yet I still picked up some valuable tips from this series, especially episode 5. Admittedly traffic & intersections intimidated the shit out of me & I avoided them if I could, until I felt confident enough to be there. Some advice - don't be a jackhole & try stuff you're not ready for, this is not a video game, there is no "reset" button when you eff up... Get home to your family - don't commit accidental suicide or land in hospital bed because you were to cool to be bothered with the basics. Great job Chase, subbed your channel just because of this series.👊👍

I really don't remember learning all that clutch stuff i was so young. I remember 50's then 80's and going to races with my family.

thanks for the content, appreciate it

Thanks for the tips Chase😊✌🏿

Yes just brilliant, thanks Chase!

I believe it's actually called "Revolutions Per Minute" as opposed to "Rotations Per Minute," but I'm nitpicking here. 🤣 Awesome videos . . . my 10-year old son (who won't stop bugging me about a dirt bike) is watching them with me.

I wonder what it would take to get you to be able to show a full run through of an MSF course class

I love you bro thank you so much for this series

i really appreciate it man, you’re great

Good video! What's the maximum amount of downshifts you would take without using brakes during downshifting?

Fantastic teaching 👏

I'll be honest this has been good for me because I was never a motorcycle guy I was always more of a car guy personally. If I ever did look at bikes it was mostly cruisers like harleys & stuff. I was always unsure of the sports bikes like this because of the clips of these bikes going so fast when steering to where the knees are barely an inch from touching the ground. That for as simple as it may sound deterred me away from these for most of my life. So this has been good for me because even though I've thought about learning about motorcycles I was never sure of myself if whether or not I'd be able to handle this kind of thing.

Thank you, great video

Thanks for the video, my question is how do you get bike to the parking lot if there isn’t one near you?

Tnx for this Chase!!

honestly even going around a small quite neighborhood is fine with lots of stop sign to practise stopping and going has taught me a lot by 4th day I was downshift rev matching.

Really great videos

OC- Thank you so much. I wished you had gone a bit more over the throttle. It is such an important part. I took the MSF, did poorly on the throttle . It was so hard so me to master as I kept revving up the throttle unintentionally either when turning the steering, maneuvering the bike or even braking. I was always pressing the throttle too hard. So many others have the same issue. I am surprised how you did not go over it in details on how to handle the throttle. But everything else was on par. Thank you.

First of all love the videos, im planning on getting my license soon. Vids have been amazing. Question though, is it possible to down shift from gear 3 straight to gear 1 or you MUST down shift through all of them?

Thnks.great series

Informative 🤟🏾😁🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

“motorcycle race person” lmao love the vids bro thank u for all the help🙏

Great video, is there a video for quick shift?

How transferable are driving stick compared to shifting on a bike? Im looking into maybe POSSIBLY PERHAPSSSSSS start riding. Just from your explanation it seems pretty transferable especially if you have extensive experience already driving manual

OC: I love ddfm definitely my favorite KZreadr

how do you get the bike to the parking lot to practice if we aren’t riding on the road yet?

12:20 valuable words from a wise man

Thank you chase !! 🙏

I've driven manual for years. My scooter is basically automatic. I'm taking motorcycle lessons next week and my biggest question mark is shifting on a motorcycle. I would have liked to see more video of the foot work as that's what I'm most concerned with. I also wanted to know why you had to move the bike to shift all the way down while stopped. On a car I'd usually just stop it in gear then throw into neutral while waiting at the light. I noticed you didn't have to rev match while shifting down? Some of the stuff here just seemed counterintuitive to me to maintain the clutch.

Gonna have to learn what i need to go up hill, downhill and a little more… Before i can get to a parking lot

Can you better explain what is stalling. And how can it affect your riding as well as the bike? I bought a gsxr 750 as my first bike haha yeah I know a lot of cc for begginer bike. So I am quite nervous!

When emergency stopping in a high gear do you only have to pull in the clutch , or the clutch and brakes

Will you go over the handlebars if you front brake?

I got my motorcycle permit , and it is about to expire next month. I even got myself a helmet and gloves but now I need a beginner bike first. I like the ninja 400, Yamaha r3 and Honda 300. I am in the hospital. Have a great new year!🎉 Jason Lepurage Has wanted to learn how to ride ever since he was a child. (Currently age 47. ). I’m in henrico, Virginia.

Is it advisable to learn how to ride with a big bike or bike with over 600cc?

I make runs to the landfill with street trash many weeks, and I’m keeping all of the cones that the litter crew finds so that I can set them up in a parking lot and practice controlling the bike :)

thank you ! this was the video i was looking for. I just bought a bike and don't know how to ride!! i will try to remember what you said in this video!

Great motorcycle 🏍️

KZread is great for learning all kinds of things. Learning to ride a bike isn't one of them.

Yes you release throttle on big bike but on 125cc or 50cc bike if you do that you loose speed and might crash unless you do it very quickly

These video's are awesome! I was wondering though, if you have to slowly release the clutch and add throttle at the same time, once the clutch is released do you have to keep adding throttle? or if I let go of the throttle what would happen?

i don’t drive a motorcycle yet but i’m guessing it’s similar to a car- if you want to go faster you’d pull the throttle more but if you want to go the same speed you’d probably keep the throttle in the same position . again i don’t have my own motorcycle yet so don’t take my word 100% but i would be surprised if it was too different from that-

when driving on the road do you ever need to shift into N?
