This is probably the single most useful motorcycling advice video I have ever seen and it has saved me from a serious accident very recently.A truck pulled across in front of me on a Crossroads, every road was clear but he decided to break and stop in front of me , I was doing approximately 120km per hour and had to break within 40 meters l would say and thank Christ I had watched this video and practiced it, because engine braking downshifting I managed to stop and avoid hitting him so thank you thank you thank you.
Happy to hear it kris.
Waao💙❤️
👏👍
Indeed
You were going to fast to begin with
Gave up riding a few years ago as I lost confidence. Watching you on your bikes has inspired me to get back on the saddle. The way you do U turns on your BMW is inspirational. Thank you.
Hope you're doing good there Mark!
Any update?
If you practice and master these skills, your probability of survival and a long, less fearful life of motorcycling is greatly enhanced. I find these skills essential to enjoying my riding.
:) yes!
I use this technique everyday. I’m always thinking about what you’ve taught me about the progressive braking and also during curves. Thank you for sharing your knowledge.
❤️❤️👍🏼👍🏼
So if I’m going around a corner and in the middle of the corner I have to stop suddenly whiling leaning. Do I break at the same time while reducing lean angle ? What’s the “ step by step” motion ?
same here
@@hellas0499 Depending on the scenario, straighten and brake or gradually add more brake pressure as you take away lean angle.
@@hellas0499
Hey, maybe go back to a particular corner u r talking about or practice in an empty lot of that scenario.
Good question.
The other day I was in my favourite twisty road and I found myself not trying to go fast but progressively brake quickly on bends until I'm comfortable coming to a stop anywhere. It was very challenging but extremely rewarding at the same time. Thank you #MotoJitsu for your generosity.
:)
Had my first emergency stop today, a bicycle pulled out in front of me about 2 car lengths away. I just naturally came to a aggressive stop. I didnt hear or feel the ABS engage at 40mph. I did not trail off the rear however, I was happy i kept control of the bike, and came to a clean stop with a car length of space to spare ! Thanks for your help and knowledge!
Your videos frequently remind me how lucky I was to learn on dirt bikes as a kid. (55 years ago) We would challenge each other to do things like fast stops and speed swerves, obstacle courses etc... Yes we crashed a lot, but kids bounce better on dirt than adults on the road. I know most of your viewers are street riders and may not have access to Dirt or ADV bikes but off road is a great (and safer) way to explore the limits of riders and machines. Keep up the good work, your videos will go a long way to keep people riding for a lifetime.
Yes!! And I encourage everyone to do as much dirt training as they can :) MotoJitsu.com/courses
I agree 100 percent, everyone should first learn how to ride a dirt bike Wyle young ,I've done many emergency stops without hitting something without even thinking about it ,just reacting to the situation, maybe because the awareness and experience

Great timing.. back to riding recently after thirty years. I was out in Brecon Beacons national park riding today and spent a good 20 minutes on quiet lanes practising your technique. I have never had to break really hard yet when riding. Behold thirty minutes later on a one and a half car width road, an idiot in a BMW coming in opposite direction suddenly decided to swerve completely over to me side of the road thirty feet in front of me to avoid a small pothole. My emergency braking worked fantastic leaving me able to give him the finger! THANK YOU I will practice this every time I ride 😀👍
You must have saved so many lives with this tutorial! You explained it perfectly without the need to demo the techniques on a bike. Glad I found your channel (well UA-cam did).
Thank you, bro. I'm so blessed that before I purchased my motorcycle I've been watching and studying your video lessons as preparation. Now, your lessons are subconsciously imprinted in me. But still, I always return to learn more from you. You've saved my life many times, and I am forever greatful to you.
you're welcome!!
Hey Greg - from another (much older) Greg!! Most Aussies would say you're over the top, but for this, over the top is perfect!! You are spot on - I suspect every video of yours saves at least 1 life..... Keep saving lives, mate!! You are totally on the money!
👍🏼👍🏼
Got my licence nearly 40 years ago, drove for years here in Germany and 1000 miles each in Bali and Sri Lanka in crazy left side traffic, and got back last year on a cruiser after many years walking and 5 years on a Vespa. Watching yours and DDFM Videos I learn so many things I have never heared of, its crazy. Maybe 30% of what you say I was able to figure out myself, e.g transferring countersteering from mountainbike, but so much stuff is completely new. So now I just got to get off my ass and practise. Thanks a bundle, keep it up and safe driving everyone.
What I actually hear when I watch your videos is Bill Lumbergh from office space:
"Hello viewer, what's happening?
Ummm, I'm gonna need you to go ahead and practice braking tomorrow.
So if you could practice braking that would be great, mmmk...
Oh oh! and I almost forgot ahh, I'm also gonna need you to go ahead and come in on Sunday too, to practice some more braking, kay...?"
Love your videos, thanks for the excellent and calm delivery.
Thanks for pointing me in the direction of the Total Control book! I talked about it to my bike mechanic (ex track racer) and he went away for a minute, came back and handed to book to me. 'Take your time with it' he said 'to important to rush...' 😃 So thanks Greg.
Started last august. I am still practicing. I know I can’t brake in high speeds yet. I’m ok with that. It will come in time. I am riding for the experience. I am not rushing the journey. Thank you for what you do.
This technique applies to life in general. It is 100% physics. Knee jerk reactions are about fear. To overcome use measured control. It takes practice to build skill. Repetition builds muscle memory just like im Martial Arts. Great video. Off to the Walmart or Costco parkinglot. I pass by there each day twice. Thank you.
I just got my first bike earlier this week and my biggest fear was developing bad habits right away. these videos have taken that fear and thrown it out the window entirely. I am anything but skilled but now I feel confident in the skills I am developing everyday and soon I’ll be ready to go out and take on the roads with no fear at all. Thank you
I've been riding for 3yrs now and I keep practicing all my do's n don'ts every time I'm on no matter the ride work,cruise,or twisties
Found this channel not long ago,and more i watch it - more i realise,that all i’ve learned in my 8-9 years of riding( back in 90s that is,got back in a saddle just last spring,almost 30 years later) is how to properly shift gears.
I love your videos, I ride a 1986 goldwing interstate. I’m 51 and a grandpa, so it’s cool I’m on a goldwing. My rear and front are integrated with foot pedal, then of course hand lever is front only. I initiate brakes both controls and taper off rear while downshifting so I’m in first when I stop. Keep up the good work. Thank you for your service as well. My son is also a Marine.
I love your directness. No bullshit. "You need to practise more." Correct! I do....!

Love this guy could listen to his advice all night
300+ videos to watch, like and comment :)
I learned a lot from you man. Passed all my test first try, but obviously I practiced a lot again and again. Now have a brand new Honda CB650R 2022 and I love it and getting into motorbike riding more and more. Thank you.
👍🏼
I envy you, i wanna be there already 😅
Time ~ 15:40 is holy grail for non-beginner bikers looking forward to adding finesse and expertise to their biking experience. Thanks 😊
I saw all your videos two years ago before I got my 01 R6.. I've only face death once when a car cute off everything was going so fast but in my head it was so slow.. thanks to your videos and to you I'm still alive..
Awesome! and keep practicing your braking!
you always amaze me by keeping talking without a cut for so long about sophisticated stuff and not repeating anything or becoming too obscure. as a side note, i now learned why i skid even when i stop at desired distance. thanks a lot for being so helpful
I learned from experience that every rider have different stopping time, because the weight of the rider and what bike he/she is using is a great factor. So practice would greatly help.
Mostly due to lack of braking technique not bike or rider. This is from teaching students how to stop quickly and watching them improve or not based on their level of understanding and technique, no matter what bike they rode in to the course. In the Intermediate Riding Clinic, you bring your own bike and stopping quickly is exercise 2

My buddy and I always try to out do each other with your 20mph 20ft drill. Best practice ever. We have increased the speed now to 40mph and can still stop close to the 20ft mark. Most times we are over the mark by 5ft. The idea is how fast can you go slow. Great video Sir!
🙌👏👏👏👊👍🤙🤘🤞✌👌🖖✋😊
nice!!
One of your videos saved my life,🙏.It was about how to go around twisties(what NOT TO DO!) I just got a silverwing maxiscooter about 10 years after my last ride on a bike,took it out for a spin, got into a corner,and got the brown pants😱.I just kept acceleratimg trough the corner and i just saw myself closer and closer to the edge of the road,and then i remembered you saying, steady on a corner,do not accelerate,that will cause the bike to go straight,so i let off the gas and wow! Here i am lesson learned no harm done. Keep it up your knowledge is needed in the world! And by the way,thank you!
Had a course today where we did an emergency brake at the speed we dared to do it at. Did it at 90 mp/h. Amazing to feel and hear the front tyre skidding and know your ABS is capable to handle this safely
Keep at it!
You should practice this without engaging ABS...we did this with bikes without ABS. It was dangerous but learning the limits and training is what keeps you safe. People are still taking all this to easy today with all these electrical asistance. On wet surface ok...but on dry stoping without Abs engage should be primary to learn.
I agree 100%. Keep in mind some motorcycles such as my 2021 Kawasaki Z900 RS café Per the owners manual, ABS will not engage at speeds below 7 mph. Your bike may very well be different so check your owners manual. I just thought it was worth mentioning so that you were aware at really low speeds your ABS is not active. At really low speeds is where you sometimes find yourself in trouble with things like oil or sand so I thought it was worth pointing out.
Thanks your video is a lot helpful i am a new biker just this July 2022... now i will practice front braking simultaneous with rear brakes... again thanks here from the Philippines.
Gotta love that front brake, don't forget about the rear though, you don't wanna forget anybody.
You can’t imagine how helpful is the info you provide to us. And me - I’m a very beginner and watching and practicing everything I learned from you and I’m seeing that it WORKS! Thanks for the great content! Subscribed on the first watched video!
Hahahaah! I had that "Mess with the Best" banner way back in the 70's and still going strong. BTW, thanks for all the instructions you're giving out. Semper Fi!
:) thanks! :) Rah
Great, great advice, and very clearly described. As you were talking about steadily increasing the front brake pressure, squeezing the lever, and increasing then easing off on the rear brake, I was reminded forcefully of my last bike accident (of a total of three) when I did exactly what you've said shouldn't be done: grab the front brake and stomp on the rear. It looked like I was going to stop in time behind the car which had stopped so suddenly ahead of me, but just when I thought I was going to make it, my front wheel shot out sideways to the left, the rear had started to skid, and I was thrown out into the centre of the road towards oncoming traffic. The bike slid about 20 feet and went under the car's tow hitch, totally mashed up the front.
It had been raining so the tarmac was very wet, and I had all terrain tyres on, but watching this tells me it was my reaction which was wrong. Not enough practice, plus bad habits in the first place, equals loss of control...and hitting the local county court bailiff's car.
Very interesting. Thank you. I’ve always used these technics instinctively : Not thinking about “stop as fast as I can” but “decrease my speed to zero as fast as I can” in case of emergency.
✌️from France… 😊
Incredible instruction.
I am from India and your are my idol because of your teachings i have improved my riding and still learning a lot from you. If riding was a subject in academics you would be the best professor. Thank You and Lots of Love for u❤️
❤️❤️👍🏼👍🏼
20mph = 32,18 kmh.
And holy crap it IS a lot of information for a beginner. So i have to watch this a few times. And i will remeber it when i have my driving licence and a bike.
A fat "thank you" and subscription is coming up.
this is golden advice along with many of your other vids. I've not been properly using the clutch, now I need to go practice, thank you for explaining so clearly 🙏
You are explaining so perfect! 🙏
I’m 55 years and took my licens for heavy motorbike in April 22 and I’m so happy❤️
For me, everything is a matter of planing how I drive, always try to preparerad what can happened in front off me with good thinking!
I wish I could have the black belt, but that I think I will never had! 😪
Me and my girlfriend loves to go with the motorbike and doing our best in a safety way!
I'm glad you shared the clutch selection to down shift while easing off on rear brake and slowly applying front brake ...I always use clutch when slowing and thought maybe I wasn't supposed as I drive a semi and constant use clutch to downshift quickly while applying appropriate amount of braking as my Corona beer loads are 45k pounds plus weight of semi 80k gross
hands down the best youtube motorcycle channel. super underrated and by far the most valuable and real world information. All too often, just like car drivers, they assume their learning is done and their ego tells them they are experts or at least good enough where they no longer need to learn. You should honestly open up a riding school.
Thank you, so informative, I’m in the middle of getting my full uk A license. So glad I found you site. Keep up the great work. Safe riding
You have a lot of really good information in this video about how brakes work and how the transfer of weight of the motorcycle affects them, and also your point about just getting out and practicing is way better than them sitting here listening to you explain this because it's probably just scaring people who don't realize that it's not that much and it becomes second nature to learn how to use your front and rear brake and your clutch and throttle all in unison.
love your content man. just took the msf last week and I want to make sure i'm practicing good techniques. I grabbed the app, now i just need a bike and gear.
Your teaching method and clarity is the best. Thanks!
You are a hell of a trainer... You have teach me alot.. thanks
when i started out learning and when the instructor had taken us into the test area before the real test on the day as a guide to what we were going to expect on the day , we had to practice the emergency stop i would do the technic you are passing on in the video. i would break and down shift to bring the bike to a stop. the instructor asked me why I was down shifting while doing the stop and i just said it came natural for me to do it, he didn't say i was doing anything wrong but i think he was surprised that i was doing it. i have always been around bikes when i was younger but didn't pass my test until i was 50, 55 now.. there was a huge gap in between then of not riding but engine braking i know about from cars and it just came natural thing for me to take over to bikes. great video mate, i have watched a lot of your videos and have taken the advice you put out there helping us all to be safer and learn about our bikes and the riding of them. cheers again very helpful. be safe 👍
That's a beautifully clear lesson on proper braking. One point I'm not sure you covered. I may have missed it, and my apologies if I did. Always straighten up the bike steering and yourself with it when stopping fast or slow. Not doing this will usually result in a bad outcome.
Great stuff! Always enjoy your videos and training techniques! Thank you
Again, I am in my sixties and STILL rock on a drum set!! I have a custom pearl... Too cool!! I have always liked front and back brakes... Just be careful when trail braking of not too much front brake on tight curves... Well curves in general... Some instructors say trail braking is for more advanced skill riders, But I think it is important to understand, use, practice and apply all of those braking skills!! Thanx again man!!!
Amazing video. This should be a must watch in any MSF course. TYSM MJ!
Part of my bike buying decision was Braking system on model I purchased....rode dirt fir years b4 street and brakes are such a huge part of riding......made brakes a priority and it can mean a huge difference......probably moreso in street where cars are trying to kill you
In short time I've been on the street already 3 or 4 times my braking has saved my ass....
Most bikes have plenty of motor and handle better than most people's skill level....
Suspension and brakes makes a difference
Thank You! One Hell of a Teacher! Brilliant Tutorial! Cheers,Graham.
Thank you! Good stuff that helps us all.
Excellent. Thank you.
thank you so much! this is one of your most informative videos and I've watched a ton so far
Thanks for all the great information. I been binge watching your videos for a while now..I just got into riding and appreciate all the advanced knowledge. Semper Fi brother!
welcome
Awesome education Thanks
Thank you for all your instruction. You are a gifted teacher.
I have a KYMCO scooter, with automatic "gearbox", so I modify your tips and then experiment. Great info. Thanks.
I’m not a rider, want to get myself into it and I found your videos/theory very helpful.
Need to get into it and practice!
Thanks buddy!👍🏼
It’s 5 am on a Sunday. Plus rain. “I don’t have rain gear yet”. But Motojitsu is awesome. When the rain subsides I’m going to practice this.
Always having good stuffs in all the videos I watch on your channel. Thanks!
Thank you for your videos they’ve improved my riding dramatically
That's the simplest explanation for engine braking I've ever seen! Thanks so much!
thanks

Thank you. Great flow of information. All in the target , no pompous. Best🤜🤛
I just finished the MSF course last week and sure enough, the instructor told us to never use the front brake during a turn. I think they over simplify it for beginners, but the better thing to do would be to have us practice what you taught in this video.
Much more to learn beyond the basic 8th grade class that is MSF
Excellent information and very professional instruction. I'm going to practice, a lot!
This is explained better then my driving instruckter did it when i went to get a licence. He was just, "slam all breaks ABS will take over". I did that and he was like "o no you can slam all the breaks like that, you can not hear that click, that's bad". And left it at that...
Thank you very much I found out a lot of information that at school I did not receive completely only back braking and combined with the face with two fingers!
Thank you so much, this is a great instructional video. Started off using down shifting with breaks when I first began riding and became the norm for me. I had to learn to avoid that when having a passenger with me so not to jerk them around as much. Your information on ABS breaks was a plus as the bike I have now has them. Great video for all riders, experienced or beginners. Will look into getting the book too. :)
brakes, not breaks
New rider(never been in a motorcycle) and I’ve been absolutely obsessed with the videos (most I watch 2-3times) - I feel confident in riding even though I’ll be buying my first bike on Friday (09/22/23) (Honda Grom Clone 125cc) I’m excited to purchase the app and study it to be a safe and knowledgable driver! Thanks for all the notes and help!
Just bought your two books via your link on Amazon. Thanks for your videos. Been helpful to a rider getting back on after 30 yr break.
thank you!
Super video! Great motivation to practice braking!!
Thank you so much for the explanations.Very important video 🙏
You are saving lives by doing these videos. Thank you so much
I'm going to practice with breaking come spring thanks for the video Wayne from the uk
I’m going to definitely save this video for later and go practice my braking today. I am really enjoying my new toy. I live in an alleyway with a lot of church parking lots around me. The other day I had a group of Girl Scouts watching me practice in the parking lot. It was like a my own cheering team. lol
Great points! Definitely practicing this the next time I'm out.
Badass Video. Downshifting during the braking channels some of the energy into the engine instead of all the energy going into the front tire which might cause a skid. It also allows the rear tire to contribute more to the stop.
As soon as the weather cooperates I’m going to start this again followed due some maneuvering drills. As always thank you.
Excellent .. much appreciated .
One of your best videos -well done! Good life saving valuable information
Awesome video as usual! Thank you for your insight, every time, Salute ( no disrespect ) from UK
So informative. Ty for sharing your knowledge
Wow that's some great instruction to build skills and nicely explained. I am getting a bike soon this is the best info I have seen and this is something that I didn't know till now . I knew a few friends and co-workers that might be around if they watched this. Thank you
This is fantastic. Thanks.
Thanks for this very informative and professional video.
The rear brakes on my MT 09 (FZ 09 in the US) not only click click when it engages, it’s more like it hits my boots from below. Not a very pleasant feeling. But like You’ve said, it’s like an instructor telling me: Easy does it, You’re stomping too hard
Greetings from the Cheese and Heidi-Land 🇨🇭
Thank you for making these videos man. Your analysis is life saving
correct. Now I get, what happened with my rear break during practising.... makes sense indeed. Thx.
I grew up without ABS and I spent a lot of time practicing braking on my first bike - a 91 Softail. Now I've got a 900 pound Harley with ABS. The first thing I did was find a long stretch of abandoned road and I practiced engaging the ABS and stopping under control. At first it was 30 mph. Not bad. Then 40. Yikes. 50? Scary! 60? Down right horrifying! But I had to. I had to know what I was dealing with and how to safely brake at high speed. I live by the mantra that you should know your bike as well as you know your self.

Very comprehensive. I'll be going to touring bike from moto in spring and taking the course. looking forward to practicing the techniques you've discussed. Thanks for the clarity, great channel!
awesome!
Thanks so much for this video. I started riding on the track last year and have only been street riding a little over a month. I've been working on trail braking on the track I ride but I really only use the brakes on the first turn after the only straight away. I down shift the rest of the track. This has given me information on what to practice for the street. I'm looking forward to checking out all your videos!!
Don‘t forget to at least lightly tap the brake while downshifting to make the rear brake light come on in order to alert traffic behind you to your slowing down. 😉
Hey man I don't have my license yet, but by watching your videos Im already getting more confidence in the fact that you can make your ride as safe as you want it to be! By indeed training a lot! I must say that in Holland we already do this kind of trainings before you can even get your motor cycle license 😄 so that makes me wondering how a American motorcycle lessions looks like in general 🤔
Incredible clear and useful information, it al makes sense, I will take training next year to get my license and to buy my first bike, but I have already a lot, looking forward to practice, many thanks 👌👏👍
Great video, very high quality information and details. Thanks for sharing.
I have this book, excellent!
