Man, the fact that people are up in arms about their commission sales on shoddy pants makes me even more happy you exposed them
If you sell crap, you should go under.
Why is it crappy or shoddy? In your own words articulate why YOU think that.
@Playaboy5 there was a whole video. Why should we waste our time??
@@nonyabusiness4151because most of you are parroting what he said in a video that was factually wrong. He continued to show nbts non Kevlar pants vs the other brands Kevlar pants. He contradicted himself. Stated nbt didn’t have ce level armor in it while showing the ce rating. Are the jeans the most protective form of gear? Absolutely not, but they serve a purpose and fill a gap for casual riding.
Lol i commented on their Facebook page and they just kept dodging the fact they falsely marketed their riding pants!
For the down shifts, nothing feels better than blipping the throttle and actually getting a smooth revmatch.
mmm No slipper clutch, no quick shifter. I agree.
I had a friend a year and a half ago that had been riding six months or so. We came upon a decreasing radius corner we weren’t ready for, riding fairly aggressively on the street. I was in front, realized while I was trailing off the front brakes that it was a decreasing radius corner, so I added a little brake pressure, and leaned over a little more. I went through just fine, but as soon as I made my corrections, I thought “oh shit. Jeff doesn’t know what to do.” I looked in my right mirror as he and his bike were sliding into the guard rail. When I talked to him about it, and corroborated what I thought I heard, he panicked, downshifted, and high sided when the back wheel locked up. It was a ‘21 gsxr1000. I was on my ‘21 cbr1000rr.
people are up in arms about their commission sales on shoddy pants makes me even more happy you exposed them
I love long videos like these!!! It feels like a podcast so I can take care of my dumb “responsibilities” while listening to one of the best channels on YT
Man i love the fact the most other moto vloggers are no where to be found and you're still here doing your thing. Well done yammie
You know they’re a new rider when they’re already clutching in a quarter mile before the light and downshifting at the light 😂😂😂
Your comment on Maverick Vinales did't age too well :D Anyway, great video!
the real question we all want answered is how we can add a second turbo on our hayabusa
Hear me out on this, what if we twin charge a Busa?
When did Yams get sponsored by Keeps?
I forgot bro has hair. Did he always have hair
Ever since my fat cat Ash farted a flammable chemical and burned down a city block.
I went from a MT-07 tyo a super deal on a R1M. Just a couple of months later i sold that R1M, made a profit, and went back to another MT-07. Too big of a jump and I was certain i would have died on that bike if i kept pushing it. Waaaaay too big gap in power, you cant comprehend the difference until you've been there.
You made a mistake, realized it and fixed it. That’s something many people won’t do because their ego tells them to keep the big boy bike for bragging rights. You did the right thing and made a profit, can’t ask for a better outcome in my opinion. Take a smaller step up when you feel like it in the future!
I went from a Kia sportage to a cbr300r. Waaaaay too big a gap in power, you cant comprehend the difference until you've been there.
Had my ST1100 for 33 years now. Perfect bike for me.
Love this type of video please do more qna stuff
Thanks for answering my question!
As a new rider I was never hung up about downshifting. In fact I taught myself to blip the throttle and rev match because I just figured out it felt smoother. Learning to do that on a CBR125R definitely made all the difference when I eventually got my R6. The biggest hang up I had as a new rider was learning to get my knee down 😂 the pristine knee sliders on my leathers were a constant reminder that I was still "green"
To the person with the R3 going for an upgrade, if you're upgrading anyway, just personalise that next bike when you have the money, especially if you're only going to sell the R3. Having the bike you're actually going to use be modified would just feel so much better
I disagree with the statement of, paraphrasing, "it doesn't do any good to live around beautiful mountain roads if you only get to ride them six months out of the year". I live in the highest elevation "city" in the USA. 10,152 feet above sea level in the central Rocky's of Colorado, and yes, I ride about eight months out of the year but they are GLORIOUS months all of the most amazing roads in my state. PLUS . . . I SKI ! ! ! And I get to do that on some of the most INCREDIBLE slopes on this entire planet. Steep and FAST on two planks in the winter and beautiful and TWISTY roads on two wheels in the warmer (for me) months. But yes, I get it . . . this is a motorcycle channel. LOVE your content Yammy!!!! And thats coming from a guy that been riding for over four decades. Also, really dig the 'FACTS' at the end!!! Keep those comin' too .
leadville?
Why do people In Colorado always say this? Bozeman is at 11000. Big Sky is 15000. There's many more. Not even top 10 highest cities lol
Yes!@@Anthrillist
@@Snowflakeliberal Lovely town, crazy its so high up, yet surrounded by mountains.
Too funny- Grew up on the East Coast with an old man that had every new Harley Davidson in the 80's and I drive a GL1800 & H2 SE-SX - no contest
What up, Squids?!?
I’ve been watching more MOTOGP and watching how they shift their weight in turns and I’m working on being more “fluid” in my actions.
Might wanna watch Isle of Man TT too sometime
Bro, when i started riding not long ago my rear locked from third to second gear.. i lost traction mid turn and almost high sided badly. So i wouldnt say that its nothing to worry about. for someone without advanced training or experience it may happen..
I am also a new rider and had almost the same thing happen from 3rd to 2nd. I was trying to slow down for a turn when the rear tire started to wash out all over the place. Scared the crap out of me. 😂 rev match downshift is a must. Live and learn.
I do it almost evry time I shoot for a yellow light. I have actually gotten kinda used to it lol
Dropping 2 3 gears whilst gauging if you can make the light.. it happens so fast its hard to tell where you went wrong and to what extent.
I have been on a bike for 15 months or so, so its not only a "beginner" thing.
It's a "habit" I hope to break one day.
Good answers, especially recommending the Fazer.
With the beginner downshifting question..
In the rain, BE SMOOTH, BE SMOOTH.
You do not want to engine brake in the rain/snow.
you 100% WANT to engine brake in the rain and snow, tf? xD
@@mightyakkylex Enjoy your fishtail.
@@nonyabusiness4151 you want a smooth engine braking, you don't want to brake with the engine disengaged. I don't ride on snow tho :)) but rain was fine so far
@mightyakkylex Let me clarify.
BE SMOOTH.
Rev matching becomes vital in slippery conditions.
If you don't rev match and do a HARD engine brake, the difference in rear wheel rotation amounts to stepping on the rear brake. This will cause your back tire to slide like an anchor.
I ride in the rain every week, and I still don't have enough confidence in the tires and road conditions...
I've been caught in the snow on 4 occasions. It's not fun. Going straight, you manage ok, but on all turns with street tires, you slide. Also, the snow sticks to the visor..
@@nonyabusiness4151 sounds like you need better tires then :)) Michelin road are notoriously good for rain, the 6 is what I would get if the ones I have now on the bike weren't so awesome
Missing out on kyalami papa noob. Awesome track and underrated. Please come to South Africa 🇿🇦
That honda is truly a beast 😳🔥🔥
The Southeast near the Appalachians is a great spot for motorcycling. Weather really isn’t that wet and crappy, Tail of The Dragon, as well as Road Atlanta, Atlanta Motorsports Park, Barber, and Charlotte are all nearby.
The upstate of SC is perfect. 1hr from the NC mtns. 1.75hrs from CMP & Road Atlanta, 3hrs to Roebling, 4hrs to VIR, 5hrs to Barber, 6hrs to NSS or PTC. Rarely lower than 30F out here. I ride year round with very limited heated gear. (1 vest)
yammie casually reverse ageing 10 years by putting a hat on
While i had my driving lessons i got my backwheel to slide once while downshifting when i shifted down to 2nd gear at like 75kph (was a cb600 hornet form 2004 or smth without slipper clutch or any assistance systems) after that i knew the limit and didnt do it again. Got it to pull the front wheel up aswell after letting the clutch slip in 2nd, didnt happen again after that time. As a beginner (which i assume i am still am after like 1.5 year and 7000ish km) you do mistakes but most important is to learn from them and not do these mistakes again
I love that you considered SoCal for those reasons.
The only reason NOT to move here is costs, it really is the best "motorcycle country" in the US if not the world, but only if you can afford it.
I was hoping to know what bike you expected to like but actually hated, hence the vice versa in the question. But hey I got a question into an AMA.
I loved how you described the Goldwing as a battleship on two wheels it's exactly what came to my mind when looking at the newer models. I dare say in the right hands it could be used to run an SUV off the road.
Do more Q&A's yam!!
Fantastic content, ❤
Fun questions in there. Fun video!
i miss the bald yams
UA-cam money hair
Let the man indulge his UA-cam monies
Whats up wth all this hair??
Right? Who is this sasquatch yam?! I feel an imposter is at the wheel.
You forced me to buy a pair of kevlar jeans, Yam. I had two of those knock-offs which although they actually fit good and look decent would probably melt into my skin with a good long asphalt drag.
sashimii here! that was INVALUABLE information and i cant than you enough! ill be studying lines on the track near me in videos and ill work on my braking and throttle control more deliberately on my daily rides ^^ if anyone is near joliet speedway in IL hit me up for some rides or track days!! would love to meet more people, new riders to pros
Well what do you know, you where in my ears while mowing the lawn yammie nice coincidence, can you do a video on victory motorcycles sometime? Cheers
I have had a tire lock-up 2 times in the first 2 weeks of riding, the problem is that on a sportbike you feel like you go at walking speed when you actually go 20-25 mph. Putting the bike in 1st gear and dumping the clutch on a 600cc will definitly lock the rear wheel up for a short time!
South of France, perfect for motorcyclists, 3 mountain range (Pyrénées, cevennes and Alps) costal road on the riviera, heritage site and vineyards obviously and several world class racetrack (ales, paul ricard, nogaro, perpignan)
Easy to go in italy swiss or spain (dolomites, meteore, lakes ...)
And all of this in area where you can go and back in a weekend
Sunny days all year rounds and french restaurants
I’ll never forget my first track day riding a FJR thinking I’m fast then being passed by a girl on a Ninja 300. Thunderhill California.
How about Southern Utah, great weather, desert & mountains galore...
Regarding the "one for all" bike - There is now a M version of the 1000XR !
I agree with yams the s1000xr is one of the best all around bikes
I currently have a Ninja 1000SX, but I want something slightly more aggressive and a bit more committed riding position, but not full supersport. Should I go sit on a S1000XR?
Definitely raven moto is one of those brands that I see a lot of ads about but there’s barely any video reviews about their products
I have wearing their gloves, hoodie, and pants. Kevlar lined gloves and pants . Good products worth the money. Just a guy who rides no money on the line for me.
@@klintonwheeler7136 I’ve seen their prices are reasonable too for what they are producing
@18:00 you're dead wrong dude, weather and location is great, but the police are insane, you can't mod anything, a fender delete will get your bike impounded, no right to carry for self defense without knowing someone politically and drivers are insane and entitled enough to say a pulling a "bump" into a bike on the highway isn't an attempt to hurt someone, DO NOT MOVE TO CALI, leaving for st louis (aka the southern motor city) was the best hail Mary choice if my entire life
I had my ninja 400 for 44 days, due to personal circumstances i got rid of it and got a ni ja 650 instead, this bike is honestly amazing for riders who are still fairly new to riding. At this point I've ridden for about 4~5 months and ive definitely gotten a lot better, theres still things i probbaly need to work on better but for now im just having fun and enjoying this machine, eventually i want to step to a 600 or a 1000 before eventually an h2r which is literally my dream sport bike, for now i have financed the ninja 650 (ikik bad idea but im a college atudent who is making a bit more than minimum payment my parents just really prefered i had a new bike with abs since my ninja 400 didnt have it, it did however teach me not to jam the back break so hey, its a win win yk?) And ill probably pay that bike off and keep it before i go getting another bike
Surprised at California pick as a top motorcycle living destination with their laws targeting modifications and police state antics. It sounds crazy but every time I’m out in Cal for a car rally or motorcycle trip i I can’t wait to head east!
Hey there Papa-Yam, on the thought of doing gear videos I had a random idea I don't think I've seen anyone else talk about. Instead of bringing brands into the picture, what if you talked about the different materials used in motorcycle gear and touching on the pros and cons of each one? Like how some riding jeans are made with kevlar, but I've seen some pants that use covec instead.
1:18 - okay, speaking for Milwaukee, I actually have one of their Modular Helmets. The MPH9814DOT 'Breeze' in the flat black color that I am using for the time being until I can get into a more higher quality brand, in which this current one will be a Passenger Helmet. So far, I like the Milwaukee Helmet. It's not as full featured as other more quality and more expensive offerings, but it's much better than any of the helmets I've used before. It'll be a good transition helmet for the time being. Any Modular Helmet Recommendations for the next good quality upgrade are welcomed. :)
for Reverend Greed. Sydney, Australia. period! (as you yanks would say) as for AUAU_1K, probably one of the best questions for a lot of early/intermediate trackers. Buy something like a 650- 750 and still kick most peoples ass. BTW, when you were in OZ, did you get a chance to ride Eastern Creek/SMSP?
42:00 I feel like the XR650R is the best bike that could exist for this. Right around 300lbs, survives (and won) the Baja 1000, liquid cooled. You gotta learn to kick it, but it is so solid There doesn't seem to be any around. The horsepower isn't crazy, but it doesn't need to be.
Wow, Sashimi is literally me, but I went with a Ninja 400 and I street ride a Ninja 1000SX. I haven't even ridden the Ninja 400 yet (ordered it over the winter, been sitting in the garage), super curious what it's going to be like.
2020 CVO Street Glide behind you on cruiser question...
Talking about CBR600RR, it was my dream bike that I planed to get it next year B'day. Sadly due to my family financial problem, I have to cancelled the plan and focus more in my family financial. But I still hope one day when my financial is stable enough I'll get it.
Patience and dogged determination in your quest will pay off. After being without a running bike for four years, this Kawasaki loyalist slogged through Cycle Trader and Craigslist for over four months. I cast an ever wider net, considering bikes that I normally wouldn't have looked at once, never mind twice, when every bike that checked my boxes was invariably 3000 miles away, in the middle of nowhere.
The bike that fits me like a fine kid glove, the 2024 ZX14R in 40th Anniversary livery, is too much. Superb first-gen ZX14s were at the top of my fiscal-prudence limit. After looking at 10,000+ bike ads, some many, many times, I had almost given up hope of finding a fabulous bike at a great price that was nearby.
Two weeks ago, when I was ready to despair, my wife said, "I know you'll find the right bike." to which I replied, "Yeah, yeah..." The next day, a fabulous, fully loaded, single owner '07 BMW K1200S (in my favorite paint scheme) appeared on Cycle Trader, only 50 miles from me.
It had already been seen by 10+ people, and faved by one. Was I fast enough? I emailed, stating I would show up via Lyft, with my helmet and the firm ask, at his convenience. I wrote, "Let's do this!" Three days later, I rode the beast home.
Showroom clean. Crazy fast. It follows a line like a Superpower locomotive. The K1200S is a "motorcycle enthusiast's" dream ride. It demands 100% attention to the ride. It's a gym membership on two wheels. It's just what I needed. When I asked the now former owner if he had ever topped it out, he vaguely mentioned "triple digits", but I doubt he rode it like it needed to be.
After ten days, with a few early AM interstate highway shake-out runs, this great running bike now runs even better. I have not revved it on the red-line even once. This may be the first bike I've ever owned that won't see at least one flat-out, all-its-got run. That's OK. It will take me and my wife wherever we want to go, posthaste.
Don't give up your dreams!
Are you sponsored by Rogaine or are those hair plugs?
Or have you kept the man scape remanence and glued them to your head?
I was not expecting you to not be bold
I'm a cruiser guy and whole heartedly agree with you on Harley Davidson, Besides, Everybody owns one...
I like Yamaha's but have been considering Indian, or a Victory, or BMW even, love Honda's Goldwing as well. I'm just just not a Harley guy...and I don't want to be one either
I've been riding Kawasakis since I was 15, with my 2 year old '76 KZ400. I got a '77 KZ1000 when I was 16, and a new '81 GPz1100 when I was 17. My buddies and I would hit the rest stops and laugh about the H-D bikers on the side of the road that we passed. They needed to be followed by a mobile mechanic rescue van. They were most unfriendly to us new 'rice-burner' riders, too.
After riding Kawasakis for 45 years, I naturally bought a great low mileage, loaded, single owner '07 BMW K1200S. Showroom clean. Never seen a wet road. My favorite color scheme. Of course I expect to work on the clutch eventually. As noobs, we all drooled over the unobtainable R90S. Finding a great BMW makes perfect sense.
More and more, everyday, I am convinced that you are, indeed, a Seth McFarland clone.
I have a question!
So of course I’m a beginner, I passed my MSF course. I can ride the bike with no problem & all the basic stuff etc. (I wanna add that I’m a calm rider & responsible) but my debate is to see if I really go the route of the beginner bike-ninja 400, or jump straight into a Mt-07 (I’m getting either or brand new) but of course I don’t wanna out grow the 400 & then selling it quick, to jump into a bigger cc bike. Cause of course I don’t wanna be spending money here & there. So what do yall recommend? Jump into that mid section cc bike? Or really start on a 400?
Thank you in advance whoever helps me out🙌🏽🙏🏽

Save your money and just get the r7, you're ready for it but an aprilia rs660 is a. way better choice imo
Ge be nice if i can get onto the discord , but alas i still cant and nobody ever contacts me to help
Yammie 😂
Viewer from india ❤
R3 guy.... get the R1! You know you wanna. You want that zooming goodness. All you gotta do is not open that sucker up. That Discord guy is probably loving his Ducati and you can too. Middleweight bikes are there to soak up your money before you hit the 1000 class anyway. Just imagine it: going full tuck on the highway, sideway wind can't touch you and neither can tje coos when you eventually get pulled over. Who cares about gas mileage anyway? After burning a big hole in your pocket with the R1 and all the mods, you won't even mind the amount of time and money you spend at the pump. Do it now, before the R1 is no more! Then not only would you have just an R1, it'll be limited edition.
