Just discovered your channel. You're the most skilled driver I've ever seen brother! Subbed. That's my dream bike. I'm still in college and working as much as I can to realise it. Godspeed man! Keep it up 💕
You are excellent motorcycle driver with excellent skills to go through heavy traffic.....that is admirable...Congrats....and I didn't manage to go to traffic yet....with practice I will do that soon ...
Thank you very much! Really kind of you to say that, I am going the same road with the same traffic for about two years now so it's almost like muscle memory lol, I'm sure you'll get there super quick yourself, most importently be careful tho!
about about the wind driving rt. 1 to Jerusalem and back, i am planning on getting the z400 but what do you say about the wind, can you at least do 100kmh on a windy day without issue? at what speed does the wind make it hard to ride this, cause the mountains here are very windy
Good question, the 400(ninja) can cruise freely at about 125-130 kph and even at quite strong wind at high speeds I never had any real issue, maybe when a big truck passes close to me I might be pushed a bit.
@@GalFrankBikes I'm just curious if you ever hit a car or been hit? You make riding look so easy like you don't have a care in the world but getting to work! You really are a talented rider and hope to see more videos....stay safe
@@northparkanita3152 knock on wood I have never, I try to balance riding fast but safe Thank you very much for your compliments, really appreciate it brother :)
Thanks bro! I'm flattered, Commentary could be nice but I assume most people watch my videos for the "riding experience" and bike sounds but maybe sometime in the future :)
@ the start of the video when you were making your way to the road how do you go so slow without stalling? I'm a new rider with my first bike (ninja 400) & when im going slow the bike stalls sometimes. Please help me 🙏🏿
Hey bud, I would suggest checking the idle rpm speed because the bike shouldn't stall when riding w/o clutch on lowest speed. I'm not doing anything special just cruising with the clutch fully engaged If you don't find the problem I would suggest some clutch play to make sure it doesn't stall, cheers!
@@GalFrankBikes Hi Gal 👋🏿 I'll try that 🙏🏿thanks for replying I appreciate it mate. I'm guessing you were in 1st or 2nd gear there? Anyways great riding & i'll definitely have more questions 4u bro...stay safe🙏🏿
Hi nice videos, I had a ninja 250, after being in traffic 1.5 hours, I started to feel pain in wrist and Back. Since the rider position of this bike looks very similar, I am wondering if it is uncomfortable too for long City rides.
Oh wow 1.5 hours of traffic is alot! Much more than I had, I had long drives of up to 2.5 hours and the only thing that was uncomfortable was my back and bum halfway throuh it The 250 is kore compact overall so i assume the clipons are a bit less comfortable and overall might be a bit more cramped. Anyway Im sure that no matter the bike after almsot 2 hours of lane filtering and traffic anyone will feel uncomfortable
i live in jerusalem, am i going to regret getting rid of my 125 scooter for this bike going around traffic or is it no big deal to shift all the time around cars
I'm not hating rn, but I genuinely want to know what justifies you splitting so hard. In some places, it looks like it's pretty sketch to do so. I understand you're safer in front of everyone, but getting there between very unpredictable people in cars (a scary thing) seems not worth the risk.
Thats a good question and a very fair answer by the other guy who commented, Tbh Its a pretty annoying ride that I want to get over with and also going a bit faster makes it a bit more fun. even if it doesnt look like it, I try to stay far away from dangerous territory and be on the much safer side, What im trying to say I guess is that there is so much more I have to do before I would consider it dangerous or extreme.
First of all its a Kawa 400 which loves high RPMs and is "used" to it second of all - more engine brake, more on demand power, louder so can be heard by other cars and so on..
Mr chuckross you dont get it, I am the danger, Lmao jk I dont feel any more danger than riding on an open road, Its much more chill and under control than it may seem
I drive tractor trailers for a living. My view point is different. I’m about safety and risk factors. Riding like that just seems too risky for me. I can’t do it nor do I want too. Certain circumstances maybe but not trying to adopt that kind of riding style. Just be safe out there because riding like that is putting yourself at risk and your bike.
I'm from Peru, traffic here well you know, I was worry about this bike not fitting in between, but yep, thank you for the vid
Glad to be of help! Ride safe.

So, did you get your dream bike brother?
This is some fantastic driving, stay safe out there. Support from Tx. 🤘 ✌️

Wow excellent riding. Fun to watch. I'd love more of them.
Which camera did you use? 📷
Thank you very much!

Holy crap!!!!!I never would have the nerve to lane split there with no room at all next to buses. No I see why you never put your mirrors in place lol
Lol folded mirrors are definitely a must in these roads!
after three years of that same road with the same darn traffic you get used to it tho

So you don't use your side mirrors?
Got a pretty quick neck,and couldn't possibly ride as quick through there with the mirrors open
Gotta lane filter somehow
Some commentary would be nice.. kept me on my toes when u were in between traffic dude great slow speed control 🤙
Thanks bro! I'm flattered,
Commentary could be nice but I assume most people watch my videos for the "riding experience" and bike sounds but maybe sometime in the future :)
nice ride...which exhaust is this? akrapovic slip on or titanium?
Thanks,
Replica slip on
@@GalFrankBikes could you please tell me if its carbon slip-on or titanium slip-on?
@@Ghostrider-sc3rx I'd have to assume carbon not sure tho
It's a replica so I can't be sure

Never rode a scooter but I think once you do it enough you go autopilot on the gears so no biggie, ride safe!
Which city ?
Mostly Tel Aviv
@@GalFrankBikes the drivers are not as bad as Arab drivers I would say 😂. But there are Arabs in tel aviv too
@@GalFrankBikes how many shekel do they cost down there
@@ishaqballut6839 Lol most people here got their driver's license accidentally I'd have to assume
@@ishaqballut6839 The bike you mean?
The camera makes it look tighter and closer than it really is
Accualy quite the opposite, it is set on super wide view so everything looks farther away than it really is

What justifies anything? Everything has some risk. I bet he pulls away smiling constantly, that alone to some would be enough.

Not sure why you hold the gears for so long.

It’s never that serious.. I’m not putting myself in danger like that or chancing damaging my bike. That’s skillful riding but it’s foolish riding..

Lane splitting has been proven to be safer but alright bud
You made it serious. He was calm and having a good time. Why so tense? Life is dangerous, you won't get out alive..
