What a fool. Weaving in and out of traffic and then hits a wall and goes down... Good thing that barrier had a crash attenuator on it, because he crashed right into it.
I can agree with him provided his situation, he wanted to obviously make the turn but also overtake the car, slowed down a bit too much beforehand then in order to catch up with his intentions he accelerated bit too quickly; he's most likely hit those angles before judging by his decision to recommit. Compounded perhaps by poor body position and potentially cold/bald/old tyres, the bike refused, but he would've made it if corner entry was a little faster thus negating the need to accelerate as much during the lean. Having started on a 400 and now on a Striple, the extra weight does actually help with more grip, as somewhat counterintuitively (but not) at higher lean angles you need to be faster on a smaller bike to hit the same turning radius as a heavier bike even ignoring tyre size, as the contact patch enlarges with more lateral force which the smaller bike cannot obtain without speed, but partially also due to stability of the bike. So his contact patch was smaller than initially intended/ familiar with for that turn, and the added acceleration at lean led to a low side. It's a constant balance between going fast enough to ensure you're loading the tyre and creating a large enough contact patch without running out of lean angle, and going slow enough to not exceed the grip of said larger contact patch.
Lean angle. Lean angle. Lean angle. Dude is riding the street like he’s on a track. Counterbalance and you don’t have these issues. I live on windy roads and can absolutely fly through them if I want to, but if I try to drag knee on them I would end up in the same scenario. Another example of someone who simply doesn’t know how to ride and shouldn’t be on the street.

I'm guessing he absolutely panicked once he realized he was (somehow) drifting over to the edge of the bridge, and then almost froze up when he looked down and imagined falling over the edge. Speculation on my part but that was f-cking scary, my palms got sweaty just thinking about crashing and going over that concrete barrier!
@@2006Whippet Going in a straight is the easiest part of riding a motorcycle. Bro failed at the easiest part. So if the previous riders were crashing 'for no apparent reason' it's fair to say that bro at 1:43 intentionally put his bike into the barrier. Like with people like this how can insurance companies in US be profitable
I seen the one at 9:04 before he claims he was slowing for the red light and leaving space for the truck in front when its very clearly green obviously he wasnt paying any attention and is the one causing the problems.
For the first one I kept saying to myself "I think the road is wet, is this guy really riding that fast around a bend on a wet road?" And sure enough he's down and you see the wet road.
ok👍 anyway the accident was caused by a moment of distraction (which made me carry too much speed into the corners) and the lack of experience with that motorbike which I had owned for less than 2 weeks and I was still trying to understand it well

0:44, filtering is risky if one gets to the front of the queue as the traffic lights turn green. In this case the motorcyclist didn't 'read' the road ahead, she suddenly appeared AND pulled in front of the car. Some of these people shouldn't be riding a bike.
Місяць тому
Yeah, this is why I don't filter if I'm unfamiliar with the area or light. I know how the lights change on my commute and I can usually predict if it's worth filtering or not. But as you said, being between two lanes as they start moving is a bad situation. I usually indicate towards the lane I want to be in and people let me in, but there are some aggressive pricks who close the gap intentionally and would 100% hit me if I pulled in front of them.
Yeah but that's not what happened in the clip, if you look none of the other cars moved at all so there was no light change, which means the cager either did it purposefully to block her from filtering or he was looking at the phone and thought the rider filtering was the other car moving, both of which are his fault

I recently found a new and very embarrassing way to crash. Started on a quiet ride late at night because of the hot weather. Got to a red light, slowed to a stop, found that my right foot would not come off of the peg after I had begun to lean the bike right. Nothing I could do except fall, with the weight of the bike on my trapped foot. It seems to have broken a bone in my foot, but I was able to pick the bike up (SXR-700) and ride it home. Far as I can tell, a loop in a shoelace on my right shoe somehow got around the brake lever as I rode off, and tied my foot down. New one for me, and I have been riding since 1961. Foot healed up okay, but I may be done riding.
Can someone tell me what happened in the first clip? I just completed my MSF a couple weeks ago and want to make sure I don't make the same mistake when I get my bike. It looks wet, but idk if that alone would cause it or if the motorcyclist did something wrong
Well, I'm no expert and I stayed quite puzzled about this clip for a while, but multiple things to consider here : 1. Lack of skill : He cannot follow the curve and just cuts through the whole first turn, which means he has to make a way sharper second turn than first ==> He should have adjusted his speed inbetween: If you can't follow the road markings, slow the heck down 2. Handful of clutch when approaching the turn: He grabbed the clutch ==> Reduces acceleration ==> Reduces weight on the rear tyre ==> Reduces traction However, the slip is very sudden, and tyres and/or oil spill on the road should be also inspected to better understand. Slowing down may not prevent a crash, but largely mitigates its consequences
I pulled in the clutch started rolling off the throttle and probably a bit of the front brake in a middle of a turn. Still not quite sure how did it happen. Maybe some oil on the road. Did this turn multiple times, 45 seems adequate speed, lean is also not excessive. Just a lack of skills, decided to adjust the speed in mid turn leaning the bike - should have worked in normal conditions, but not this time :) Dutch guys in Reddit say that this roundabout is known among the fellow bikers :)

It’s weird when riders just lie on the road? Dude, if you can move. Then get your azz off the frickin’ road ASAP.🤷🏻♂️ I’ve watched riders literally get run over by cars for just lying on the road. That’s how you turn a bad day into a life threatening/ending day…
Moving with a broken neck or a broken back vertibre is a one way ticket to para or quadriplegia and you will not know if you have the injury because of the numbing effects an the adrenaline. I would rather take my chances laying on the road than a lifetime without working limbs
and all had cameras on them but just no rider skill , when you ride a motorcycle everything can kill you , you don't have rights , you MUST ride defensively at all times !!!!!!, heres a tip , learn what the words "target fixation " and "countersteering " mean , and understand that a bike weighing 250kg with rider is no match for a truck weighing 10,000kg , or a car coming in at 1800kg , me ? i started riding in 1973 , 51 years later i still have my anatomy intact and three litre class sports bikes , i ride hard but NOT in traffic , maybe thats why i am still here !
If you think you're OK, get out of the road, fool. You won't be OK when a car runs you over while you're taking your emo siesta on the pavement. I broke my pelvis and thumb crashing once, and the first thing I did was crawl out of the road, because lying there is idiotic.
i feel like all of those corner slippage could have been avoided if you weren't leaning your bike too hard or throttling too aggressively and slower speed. after all you are suppose to slow down on corners..
Most of the people have absolutely no talent for riding bikes. It's fun to watch on the other hand scary when you realize they can come at you from around the corner...
For all those saying not to ride beyond your abilities, you're right, but I think there's some nuance lost when people say this. You shouldn't ride vastly beyond your limits, but the truth is that you have to push them a little bit at a time if you ever hope to improve. Some people seem to think of nothing but mitigating risk when they ride, which if you ask me seems like an utterly boring and joyless proposition.
@@terryrobertson111 All cars were stopped at traffic lights; the first car moved when he saw the bikers; the traffic lights were still red when the video ended.
1:40 in - Had me making faces and leaning hard over in my chair. -- I remember the first time I lost the front end on pavement at road rash/traffic speeds. I was 16, riding a Suzuki SP125 and I lost it at about 30 mph, on pea gravel in an intersection, right in front of a bunch of cars. Ripped pants and jacket, rag-dolled a bit, I ended up crawling across the pavement saying "My Bike... My Bike..." while a bunch of adults ran around panicking. Being 16, I was fine, proud of my bandages at school the next day. My poor bike though... never the same after that.
You know, all of the official stats make it out like motorcyclists biggest issue is people not paying attention and intersections and such. But from what I can tell, at least 90% of the accidents are self-inflicted.
can someone pls explain what happend at 2:55? i have been riding for a year now and i have gotten pretty comfy on my bike and my tires and it didnt look like he leaned to far, was there somthing on the road oir what was that?
RayneBugs. Thats pretty stupid driving to the front of the car and then cutting in front of him, Then saying its his fault. You did not even indicate to him your moving over.
ALWAYS wear protective gear, including a helmet, gloves, jacket, pants, and boots. This gear is designed to protect you from severe injuries in case of an accident and it can save your life. Remember, no ride is too short or too safe to skip your gear. Stay protected, ride smart, and ensure you return home safely to your loved ones. Your life is worth it!
New riders ask yourself how many people made this curve without any issues. Ride responsibly and you will have less issues and enjoy your ride better. 2 wheels is not a licence to be stupid.
4:49 I can think of four good reasons why you should have turned left instead of right. Wait a minute, you were turning left to begin with. Make that five.
IDK why new riders need to see how dumb people can be. Showing them the right way to do things is more useful than endless crashes, unless you want to discourage us.
That ain't what happened Justt Johnyy. Let me tell ya what I saw. 1) you turned in or apexed way too early. this is an indication that you know your entry speed was too fast. you panic! 2) you also got back on the throttle too early too. you were still in the curve. you couldn't see the exit or take away lean angle yet. 3) you lacked focus. you were looking down instead of up and through the curve. probably too much weight on the inside for the given lean angle. 4) you also target fixated . . . It was around a dumb move. Why were you trying to pass during a curve?
Tutta gente fanatica che prende la moto e pensano che è un gioco della play station ridicoli il problema sta nel fatto che ti puoi trovare coinvolto con questa gentaglia malgrado la tua tranquillità nel guidare una moto.
But do all these bikers who fall on the road know the road they are taking or is this the first time they have ridden on this road? If it's the first time, or one of the first times, why attack already? First get to know the road well before you want to have fun ! It really looks like they are surprised when they come into a corner that is a little tighter than the previous corners, either they panic and wallow, or they go too fast and are unable to take the turn correctly... !
I see a lot of bikers here riding slower than the cars around them, and being surprised when they get overtaken. Someone needs to man up! Lots of fast out of control riding too. Also need to man up and be more mature.
4:55 The accidents the riders fault. He sure just stayed in his lame. The problem was the headlights scared him. If he would have maintained his speed and stayed in his Lane, he would have went right past that car that made the left hand turn in front of him... but he panicked. Go back and watch the video and see for yourself. If you look he was drifting over towards the right leg. He should have been holding his Lane and stayed left.
0:40 this was just done on purpose, and then giving the middle finger. I broke his middle finger in 10 places. this one has an ego of a toddler, "I was first"! you Americans want to kill each other for the smallest thing.🤣🤣🤣........RELAX 😁
@@rossmagwood1381 no one else started driving ? and the normal reaction when you hit someone is to raise your middle finger, right??? this was on purpose, because his ego couldn't handle it.
0:53 you moved in front of him just as he was starting to move forward that is on you not him he would not have even seen you before moving as you were pulling in front of him. just goes to prove that lane splitting is not as safe as you think it is
No way the driver didn't see them before moving forward, it was 100% ego on the drivers part not wanting them to "cut" in front of them. And all data proves that lane filtering when done correctly is far safer for a biker, However literally 2-3 states allow it.
He moved when he saw the bikers; the light still was red at the end of the video so there was no need for him to move his car. They weren't lane splitting; they were filtering.

He was devastated for 10 seconds and then started to blame him.
@@Okurka. You haven't seen the full clip mate and he was seriously injured.
@@daz3434 I have seen the full clip, mate.
The father was crying for 10 seconds and then started to blame the son for riding too fast.
Hey thanks for including me in the video!❤
8:06 mans got a trashed 125cc held together by duct tape and has his insta all over it and a Kawasaki jacket id be way to embarrassed to post anything with that 💀
The camera probably cost more than the bike. 😂
@@2006Whippet you probably aint far off im 90% sure thats a z125 pro you can get them for like 200-500 used and then to be wearing a kawasaki jacket like that as if your on a 600+ and some pro biker with with insta handle on it is a joke 😂
Guy also has the "L" plate (how fitting 😂) which means he doesn't even have a full license yet
Clapped OuT

It's a 16yo guy, 125cc is the maximum you can legally ride.
1:45 dude….. so glad he didn’t go flying off the bike, with where he hit that wall 😳
Would've been a great 360 degrees video, though.
Jesus.. these are public roads not racetracks. SLOW DOWN
thanks for you videos 😁
It’s weird when riders just lie on the road? Dude, if you can move. Then get your azz off the frickin’ road ASAP.🤷🏻♂️ I’ve watched riders literally get run over by cars for just lying on the road. That’s how you turn a bad day into a life threatening/ending day…
If you are talking about Parodiluca for instance, I completely agree! 😮
Moving with a broken neck or a broken back vertibre is a one way ticket to para or quadriplegia and you will not know if you have the injury because of the numbing effects an the adrenaline. I would rather take my chances laying on the road than a lifetime without working limbs
and all had cameras on them but just no rider skill , when you ride a motorcycle everything can kill you , you don't have rights , you MUST ride defensively at all times !!!!!!, heres a tip , learn what the words "target fixation " and "countersteering " mean , and understand that a bike weighing 250kg with rider is no match for a truck weighing 10,000kg , or a car coming in at 1800kg , me ? i started riding in 1973 , 51 years later i still have my anatomy intact and three litre class sports bikes , i ride hard but NOT in traffic , maybe thats why i am still here !
Well said! Just turned 50… been riding since I was 17. 👍
If you think you're OK, get out of the road, fool. You won't be OK when a car runs you over while you're taking your emo siesta on the pavement. I broke my pelvis and thumb crashing once, and the first thing I did was crawl out of the road, because lying there is idiotic.
So many slides, so little protective gear . . . 😑
Glad I haven't been a new rider in 40+ years
6:17 Cutting the line for a toll is an asshole move. Yes, it's no reason for agression but it still makes you an asshole for doing so.
I hope Ninjaboi636 learned not to grab that front brake on a very loose gravel surface anymore.
1:23 - Imagine not being able to negotiate a simple corner.
i feel like all of those corner slippage could have been avoided if you weren't leaning your bike too hard or throttling too aggressively and slower speed. after all you are suppose to slow down on corners..
Why do so many motorcyclists have this incessant need to try commit suicide?
"Got one life to live, let's get it over with"
it's called fun, you should try having some
@@A1i3N337
There are other forms of fun, without taking ridiculous chances with your life. Consoling a bikers girlfriend, for instance.

Never out ride your skill
so many honda rebels riders 👍
Newer models look nice. The old ones only parking lot worthwhile.
1:43 "Rider admits that it was all his fault" There's literally nothing and no one else on the road.... Like whose fault could it have been? 😂
Hoping to see one day the uncensored version.
I will never understand these people dropping their bikes at 10mph while taking an ordinary turn.
Most of the people have absolutely no talent for riding bikes. It's fun to watch on the other hand scary when you realize they can come at you from around the corner...
Last clip is one of the guys who asks if he start on an r1 because he rode dirt when he was 16.
For all those saying not to ride beyond your abilities, you're right, but I think there's some nuance lost when people say this. You shouldn't ride vastly beyond your limits, but the truth is that you have to push them a little bit at a time if you ever hope to improve. Some people seem to think of nothing but mitigating risk when they ride, which if you ask me seems like an utterly boring and joyless proposition.
0:43 this is so arizona it's painful. the heat there produces just absolute monsters of people.
Rider drifted right into the path of the car
@@terryrobertson111 look at the wheels of the car. they are stopped until the rider gets there, then they accelerate to hit her.
@@terryrobertson111 All cars were stopped at traffic lights; the first car moved when he saw the bikers; the traffic lights were still red when the video ended.
@@Okurka. Nope. Traffic was coming to a stop and she rolled right into his lane. Watch it again. Total amateur hour
@@terryrobertson111 You're the one who needs an eye exam man, the cars were already stopped

1:40 in - Had me making faces and leaning hard over in my chair.

I remember the first time I lost the front end on pavement at road rash/traffic speeds.
I was 16, riding a Suzuki SP125 and I lost it at about 30 mph, on pea gravel in an intersection, right in front of a bunch of cars. Ripped pants and jacket, rag-dolled a bit, I ended up crawling across the pavement saying "My Bike... My Bike..." while a bunch of adults ran around panicking.
Being 16, I was fine, proud of my bandages at school the next day. My poor bike though... never the same after that.
Fighting a semi when you're on a motorcycle is a whole new level of dumb.
The lack of driving skills is nuts
You know, all of the official stats make it out like motorcyclists biggest issue is people not paying attention and intersections and such. But from what I can tell, at least 90% of the accidents are self-inflicted.
can someone pls explain what happend at 2:55? i have been riding for a year now and i have gotten pretty comfy on my bike and my tires and it didnt look like he leaned to far,
was there somthing on the road oir what was that?
RayneBugs. Thats pretty stupid driving to the front of the car and then cutting in front of him, Then saying its his fault. You did not even indicate to him your moving over.
Car was stopped at a traffic light and moved to cut off the bikers.
ALWAYS wear protective gear, including a helmet, gloves, jacket, pants, and boots. This gear is designed to protect you from severe injuries in case of an accident and it can save your life. Remember, no ride is too short or too safe to skip your gear. Stay protected, ride smart, and ensure you return home safely to your loved ones. Your life is worth it!
New riders ask yourself how many people made this curve without any issues. Ride responsibly and you will have less issues and enjoy your ride better. 2 wheels is not a licence to be stupid.
4:49 I can think of four good reasons why you should have turned left instead of right. Wait a minute, you were turning left to begin with. Make that five.
You think he should've turned into oncoming traffic? Wow.
@@Okurka.He was lucky the white vehicle didn't turn in front of him too. What would you do in that situation and why?
9:05
You need real therapy my dude.
90% of these videos it's like they are trying to crash.
A shame I will probably never ride the Tail of the Dragon purely because I don't trust the other riders.
IDK why new riders need to see how dumb people can be. Showing them the right way to do things is more useful than endless crashes, unless you want to discourage us.
Guy please enlighten me, why most of the riders on this video having difficulty turning left or right? Didn't they passed the motorcycle training?
I wonder how many less injured or deaths we would have if people weren’t dumb going 100 down a road
!HORSE!
That ain't what happened Justt Johnyy. Let me tell ya what I saw. 1) you turned in or apexed way too early. this is an indication that you know your entry speed was too fast. you panic! 2) you also got back on the throttle too early too. you were still in the curve. you couldn't see the exit or take away lean angle yet. 3) you lacked focus. you were looking down instead of up and through the curve. probably too much weight on the inside for the given lean angle. 4) you also target fixated . . . It was around a dumb move. Why were you trying to pass during a curve?
Tutta gente fanatica che prende la moto e pensano che è un gioco della play station ridicoli il problema sta nel fatto che ti puoi trovare coinvolto con questa gentaglia malgrado la tua tranquillità nel guidare una moto.
But do all these bikers who fall on the road know the road they are taking or is this the first time they have ridden on this road? If it's the first time, or one of the first times, why attack already? First get to know the road well before you want to have fun ! It really looks like they are surprised when they come into a corner that is a little tighter than the previous corners, either they panic and wallow, or they go too fast and are unable to take the turn correctly... !
I see a lot of bikers here riding slower than the cars around them, and being surprised when they get overtaken. Someone needs to man up!
Lots of fast out of control riding too. Also need to man up and be more mature.
4:55 The accidents the riders fault. He sure just stayed in his lame. The problem was the headlights scared him. If he would have maintained his speed and stayed in his Lane, he would have went right past that car that made the left hand turn in front of him... but he panicked. Go back and watch the video and see for yourself. If you look he was drifting over towards the right leg. He should have been holding his Lane and stayed left.
Brakes locked up on its own or did you panic and then grabbed the front brakes?
Turn by countersteering !
Like a 3-year-old already does on their bicycle? It's nothing special and is done automatically.
Second clip (lane filtering) was 100% in the fault here. How about you don't merge into the lane 1 ft in front of the car?!
Car deliberately drove forward and hit the rider and it's the cyclist's fault?
@@mixispid You don't see it correctly. The car was already moving forward and the bike merged RIGHT in front of it
Pretty much all preventable
2:10 it's called ABS (anti-lock braking system)....
Fun Fact: ABS makes your braking distance longer.
He would've crashed into that barrier at a higher speed.
@@Okurka. funnier fact, ABS allows you to keep steering
@@ALCLCFVIS Even funnier fact, he was focused on the barrier and wouldn't steer any other direction when he had ABS.
@@Okurka. delusional fact....I missed the rear facing camera
@@ALCLCFVIS What are you smoking?
0:40 this was just done on purpose, and then giving the middle finger. I broke his middle finger in 10 places. this one has an ego of a toddler, "I was first"! you Americans want to kill each other for the smallest thing.🤣🤣🤣........RELAX 😁
not on puropse do not pull in front of people just as they are starting to move ahead
@@rossmagwood1381 no one else started driving ? and the normal reaction when you hit someone is to raise your middle finger, right??? this was on purpose, because his ego couldn't handle it.
No way you blame the car. She has no balance and cut him off actually
Toddlers don't have an ego.
@@kostasrp6634 Car driver did it on purpose; how can you cut him off when he's standing still for a red light?
What the horse doing?
4:49 too fast !
6:15 song?
1:43 neta??? me juras que fue su culpa? no mms
Collection of dudes that don't know how to ride...and idiot drivers.
1:50 🙄🤔
Porque a la moto llaman bicicleta??
0:53 you moved in front of him just as he was starting to move forward that is on you not him he would not have even seen you before moving as you were pulling in front of him. just goes to prove that lane splitting is not as safe as you think it is
No way the driver didn't see them before moving forward, it was 100% ego on the drivers part not wanting them to "cut" in front of them.
And all data proves that lane filtering when done correctly is far safer for a biker, However literally 2-3 states allow it.
He moved when he saw the bikers; the light still was red at the end of the video so there was no need for him to move his car.
They weren't lane splitting; they were filtering.
1:43. Can you imagine if he had gone over the retaining wall?! That was a helluva drop to the next roadway...
0:48 YOU caused that
new riders watching videos like this are why young people aren't riding motorcycles anymore.
8:58 yes it was the best course of action he safel got to the side of th road without cutting you off
Better to speed up with a blown tire than slow down and get over?
バイカス動画👍
And this is why I drive an SUV full of airbags and safety structures.
And this is why everyone hates car drivers; they think they're safe in their bubble and disregard other road users.
Someone tell this guy about the moose test.
