A similar thing to this exercise I’ve accidentally done was when “I come to my Complete Stops at a Red Light, follow by my feet slowly making their way to Plant on the Ground”. BUT the light suddenly turns Green in which I would have to just Throttle Up as I’m Raising my Feet back onto the Floorboards without having my feet plant the ground.

I just want to know where he got his highway / crash bar protectors. I have a 2023 Street Glide Special and want to get a set.
It's not the fear of falling, it's the fear of dropping your $25,000 baby on the ground.
Thank you for watching and hopefully you’re subscribed!👍🏾😊 I hear you, but that’s why this is so important. If your motorcycles protected, you won’t have to worry about that
Buy crash bars.
Same here, I hate that one tiny scrape on my engine guards costs 1/20th of the cost of my bike to respray a 1 inch spot of scratching. That is the real fear, if it was the training company's Road Glide you wouldn't care about dropping the bike 10+ times while learning.
@@davidtunstall6454 Exactly!
I'm the perfect example of, " you're never too old to learn.
I've been riding since my early teens.
I'm 74 and finding it necessary to finally learn the safe and proper way to ride.
Your videos are a God send.
You're never too old to learn, and I can now see how lucky I am to have survived.

Same here billy 30+ year rider my saying is if you ain't learning you ain't breathing
I get what you are saying . I've been riding since the early 70's and could do full lock u-turns on any small to medium bike. Didn't even realize the subtle, subconscious inputs involved in doing so. That fear of falling kicked in with any big bike and trust and technique went out the window and waddle came into play. Can't wait to throw a leg over my mate's Yamaha 1200 and give it a shot. "Trust me. I saw it on UA-cam" Yeah, Right!
This was one of the hardest exercises for me. I understood the concept to be true but it took a lot of practice to get it in my head. Thank you for helping me be a better rider.
It’s my pleasure brother. 😊 I remember.
@@BeTheBossOfYourMotorcycle Don't forget "head and eyes", unbelievable how important that is. Head and eyes will make your turns perfect from the start. Robert you told me that in the comment section, those 3 words fixed a bunch of my confidence issues. I wonder what the science is for that to be so true that you will go where you look.
I'm working on it but it's still not in my head!! It goes against all my instincts, even though, like you, I know it to be true. My automatic response is to do the exact opposite of what I should do!! One day I do a u turn in less than two parking spaces, without even scraping my floorboards. The next day, I can't even do it in two and a half parking spaces....haha. It'll come. I'm just gonna trust and believe!! :-)
@@billyhorn5345 keep up the good work. You will get it.
Everyone feels "uh oh" right before they fall. This is your best exercise
Thank you very much! Thanks again for participating in it. 👍🏾
Man, even for veteran riders, these videos/lessons are pure gold. Thank you!

I am 77 and just started to learn to ride a motorcycle a month ago and bought a little Honda Grom for practice. I have watched a lot of UA-cam videos and often each one has good info. Your video is the best explanation I have ever seen. And yes I am afraid of falling down especially when I try to do sharp left or right slow turns. I am going to practice what you showed till my fear of dropping the bike is gone. Thanks for that great video
That is awesome! Thank you for watching and hopefully you’re subscribed to my UA-cam channel!👍🏾😊 ua-cam.com/users/BeTheBossOfYourMotorcycle I’m happy that my channel has been helpful to you! That makes all the time and effort that I put into this so worthwhile!
Anyone who rides SHOULD be watching Robert and LISTENING to his teachings. Anyone can handle a bike going straight down the road. It's when the slow speed maneuvers creep up on ya and you feel that bike trying to wrestle control from you. Only way to stay on top is to PRACTICE. Greatly appreciate your time and knowledge shared with us. Merry Christmas to you Robert, your family, and to all of the Preloader Nation.
Thank you very much brother! 👍🏾Likewise!
So much better than the "Ride like a pro" guy. You engage with the viewer instead of talking down!
Thanks.
I'm seeing the need for practice too.
Thank you very much! Thank you for watching and hopefully you’re subscribed to my UA-cam channel!👍🏾😊 ua-cam.com/users/BeTheBossOfYourMotorcycle
Love watching your videos. I have been riding for a long time and these exercises make you a better safer rider. Never to old to learn.
Thank you very much! Preload!!! And Keep It Loaded!!!! ©
Hey Robert, look at the effect you have had on your pre-loaders and others since you began your channel. It can be argued that you have probably saved more lives now than you did in your years as a motorcycle cop. Bravo Brother! Regards from Okinawa!
Thank you very much! 👍🏾 I appreciate that!
I agree. I just got a Harley and started watching these videos BEFORE I was even on the bike. His voice kept playing in my head and I really had confidence to ride the first time!!
The confidence gained by understanding how to properly apply power to the rear wheel makes everything else involved with low speed maneuvers much easier. Excellent explanation and demonstration of a simple but often misunderstood concept.
I couldn’t have said it better myself. Thank you very much! 👍🏾
One of the things that helped me learn bike riding is the fact that I started with a 50 CC as a first bike then worked up to a 300, a 500 a 600 etc, and over the years, as my finances grew, finally a Softail Heritage. It is much more difficult or learn and get confidence if you first bike is a monster. Also it is better to put down a cheap (at the time) 300, 200 pound bike while learning than a $25,000, 700 lb bike. Practice, practice, practice! If I put down my gorgeous Heritage I would be really miffed.
I'm right there with Billy Helmick. Been riding for over 40 years and this has never been explained to me. Sir, you are a brilliant teacher! Now...I know what one of the first things I'm going to do once this snow melts. Thank you!

I think that this exercise number three is more detailed for my understanding.
It is a combination and harmony as in a musical orchestra.
I can see very clearly when you open your hand and reach the friction zone, very good explanation - thanks!
It’s my pleasure. 😊
What a detailed explanation of the steps I find this very helpful and I'm sure a lot of others will too. Thanks, Robert.👏😎
Glad it was helpful! It’s my pleasure. 😊
I wish I had videos like this when I started riding 25 years ago. I learned the hard way over the years. Even with all of my experience I still learn from the BOSS. Thank you for teaching every level of rider to get better.

I handle my 2018 Roadmaster with ease at 3 to 4 mph. Learn the friction zones and practice slow speed maneuvers
Simply Marvelous ... The Boss Being the BOSS! We can never get enough of this.
Thank you very much!
I always love the challenge, I'm a brand new motorcycle rider and I went ahead and bought a 2015 Victory Magnum, yes I know and trust me it's not the first stupid thing I've ever done and for sure won't be the last.
Thanks to your videos LT and ride like a pro (Jerry Palladino) I can ride my heavy bike with confidence after several practice hours, I do still drop it but I'm not taking it up the highway before I can be the boss of it on low speeds then I'll practice emergency braking on high speeds.
Thanks again Lt. Simmons and keep up the good work.

Thanks for the training. I recently got a KLR 650. I go to a church parking lot with a friend to train on tight, slow riding control. I went out for the second time today (after watching one of your videos) and improved from using your techniques. I did drop it once (thank God for crash bars) because I a had the clutch too far from the friction zone. Also, after watching this after the session I realized that I'm not preloading consistently. With repetition, I think that my confidence and competence will continue to improve. Keep posting and thanks again.

Yo Rob,
I always watch all of your videos. Regardless of if it’s a short or if it’s a long one I’m going to watch it. The reason why is because I have learned so much by watching your videos and when I’m out riding, I hear your voice in the back of my mind coaching me. I am committed to your technique. I practice your techniques in the parking lot weekly and I also practice them every time I throw my leg over the bike during my ride.
Keep up the outstanding work, and may God bless you and yours.
Merry Christmas Rob.
I appreciate you bro!!!

If anything seems to be going squirrely it’s like…”keep it loaded…keep it loaded” or “let out the clutch.”
Even when you are watching other people, you hear him banging inside your head about “keeping it loaded”. that’s the name of the game with slow speed.
As always … “preload and keep it loaded.”

Hi from Texas. New Subscriber. I’m glad I came across your Videos, they are really going to help me. I’m 62 and have been Riding Motorcycles for 50 Yrs. There weren’t any Videos or Rider Courses to learn from until Recently. I am really Learning a lot of things I didn’t know. I’m not one of those guys that think, I’ve been riding for 50 Yrs you can’t teach me anything I don’t already know. You always have to keep your Mind open to New Ways of doing things, or you stop leaning Period. Anyways, Thank You for all the Work you do to Teach us better Riding Skills. Also Thank You for your Service. I will definitely be Practicing these Exercises. 👍👍❤️

Just bought a BMW R18 TC which i know you dont love...:) I need to improve my slow riding skills altho ive been riding for 50yrs ive just never really practised slow stuff. You are the 'man' for that and i greatly appreciate your videos.
Thank you for watching and hopefully you’re subscribed!👍🏾😊 Also, thank you for the compliment! Congratulations on your R18! Now show her who the Boss is!
Robert, I remember watching you when you initially started. There are many excellent instructors out there. However, the way in which you teach simply connected with me. Thanks to you, with diligent practice, I have been able to be the boss of my H-D Sportster 1200 48, Deluxe, and Heritage in short time. Within the last year, I have been able to be the boss of my '20 Indian Chieftain DarkHorse. No longer do I avoid crowded gas stations, parking lots, challenging U-turn situations, heavy traffic, etc.
Your slow speed practice instructions is critical to anyone wishing to be the boss of their motorcycles and to truly enjoy all of the wonderful aspects, which our motorcycles can afford everyone.

That’s a great exercise, to feel the bike falling and then using the clutch, that feeling where to bike lifts itself up with clutch/throttle, that really feels like magic!
Man, Step 5 at 12:40 is something I needed to know and hear. I had 3 drops during training so it’s always on my mind. The trust and believe exercise as explained here is the next thing I’m going to try. It clicked in my mind, now I have to feel it and once it clicks in real world, I suspect my fears will be greatly reduced. This was explained and broken down really well. Should be explained and incorporated like this in MSF school.

Hey Robert, ya wanna know the irony of your question and this topic. When I first started riding back when I was in my 20s , I just rode. Slow, faster, just rode. I could do a lock to lock uturn in just feet, over curbs, speed humps we dirt, grass. Didn't matter. Did it without a second thought. Now, at 70, and haven't ridden for a couple of years, vids like yours make me self conscious.
I remember your vids when you were, pay it ahead. I believe? You're a good teacher no doubt. And I don't ride monster bikes. My old VMAX weighed just 620 lbs. And it was like riding a bicycle still because I never watched a video. Now after just having a triumph Bonneville, only 500 lbs. I get self conscious sometimes.
Thanks Robert, happy holidays bro.

Sir,
I'm 64 years old and a new rider.
I've found out, from my experience, that it's not only about "looking where I want to go" but actually "Looking AND SEEING" where I want to go. Hope this helps explaining the process going forward because I'm still struggling with "Seeing" where I want to go and making it happen.
Thank you for the instructive information.
Robert you would not believe how terrified I was to make a u turn on my road glide when I first got it, but after watching one of your slow speed video's my confidence level improved a 100% after practicing .Practicing being the boss of my motorcycle thanks again. ✌🏾✌🏾💯💯

Great explanation of this technique. Last year I bought a new tour bike, it's wieldy by my standards. I took a trip and I was pulling out of a fuel pump and went into a hard right to circle back around the pump. The bike started to go over my learned reaction was to let the clutch out and straighten the bike up. That is great practice technique also. Great video, Thank you. now I know how to explain this to someone else properly.

making a right hand, full lock turn is a move that alot of people have trouble with for the same reason. for some weird reason, people are less nervous doing a full lock left.

I have the same issue. I don’t know what it is, but Right U Turns are harder than Left U Turns. It almost feels unnatural doing a Right Hand U Turn.👍

This exercise scares the crap out of me lol and I practice a decent amount on my Victory Cross Country. Just means I have to practice this technique more! Thank you for the awesome content brother. God bless.
Absolutely brother!! Preload!!! And Keep It Loaded!!!! ©
ROBERT, to get Preladis that just idle or actually adding some throttle ( 1800 RPR) and holding it there and adjusting the POWER using the Cluth at the friction zone ( step 4) Great video!! Best video Thank you!
Thank you very much! It’s my pleasure. 😊

Hey Rob, Merry Christmas. I have the most difficulty with this. I will be practicing and videoing more of the practices. Thank you for all you do to help us become the Boss of our Motorcycle.
Thanks brother! Likewise! It’s my pleasure. 😊
Your video really helped me overcome balance and fear of dropping the bike issues. Thank you!!

I finally FINALLY am able to do a U turn within 2 parking spots! Yeah me! I'll continue to practice that until I can do it 100% of the time. Then, I'll start building the procedure for turning from stopped and locked. Thank you for the help.
That’s awesome!! Congratulations! Keep it up brother!👍🏾
Gonna DO THIS!!
It will definitely help. Just keep at it. 👍🏾 Thank you for watching and hopefully you’re subscribed to my UA-cam channel!👍🏾😊 ua-cam.com/users/BeTheBossOfYourMotorcycle

Its a must learn skill set. I had to learn it when I came back to riding a few years ago. Guys like this fellow can help you become a better rider in no time at all. Cheers, and thanks for another great video!
Thank you very much!
I don't fear dropping my motorcycle I fear having to pick the heavy thing up. I ride a victory cross country tour it's getting to be just a little bit heavy for me. I'm not bad shape for 66 but I know my limitations.
I hear you Rob. Thank you for watching and hopefully you’re subscribed to my UA-cam channel!👍🏾😊
I've been riding for a full year now, working on my low speed control, this upload has me subbing. Looking forward to learning more.

After several classes, I have yet to figure trust issue of leaning at slow speed, rather straight up and overuse steering! Working on it soon, currently nursing torn miscus recovery! Thx for info and encouragement!! Joker
Speedy recovery brother. It’s my pleasure. 😊
Great content Rob. Trusting and believing in what you just demonstrated is a tough thing for those who don't know. How do you get that trust? Practice!, Practice!, Practice! .............
Thank you very much!
Thank you so much. This is so helpful.

Thank you for your videos it’s very informative not only the physical aspect but the mental aspect of getting over the falling sensation and knowing that you will not fall if you’re applying the proper amount of friction zone and power thank Merry Christmas
It’s my pleasure. 😊
Bro I followed you since you had like 5k subscribers and I’m so glad your still doing motorcycle videos and I’m happy for your success and that people have realized how much value you provide and you reached that 100k mark. I knew you were gonna blow up. Congratulations man and much love from Miami. I bought a honda shadow and your videos got my riding skills on point that I feel so confident making any turn. I still have to continue practicing but there’s nothing better than being the boss of your motorcycle. Thanks again.

@@BeTheBossOfYourMotorcycle yessir! Thank you again!
My dad taught me to drive a stick shift by just listening to the engine. Its second nature to me
You have made me 100% a better rider.

Great video!
Thanks! Also thank you for participating.👍🏾
Amazing contents,thank you Robert
Thank you very much! It’s my pleasure. 😊
Excellent video Rob, keep ‘em coming! Challenged myself just yesterday at a parking lot to get the 18’ U turn on the Indian Challenger, noticed I was coming close to the car that was in the 3rd spot. Pulled in the clutch to get the motorcycle to lean aggressively then caught it with the clutch I.e. trusting and believing. Thanks Rob! Preloader Nation!!! All Day! Everyday! Merry Christmas to you and your family brother🙏🏾💪🏾
Thank you very much! That’s outstanding!👍🏾
Hi Robert. came across your channel and enjoyed your content. My Achilles heel is slow speed manoeuvres including u turns etc. Thank you for imparting your experience and knowledge. Will start to practice your techniques. Subscribed. Frank from Sydney Australia
Hey Frank. Thank you very much! Thank you for watching and subscribing to my UA-cam channel!👍🏾😁 Welcome to Preloader Nation!
You are definitely not alone with that Achilles heel! Not even close! But you are definitely in the right place to address that and finally show your motorcycle who the Boss is!
Preload!!! And Keep It Loaded!!!! © 👍🏾👍🏾
I liked this video. I can't wait until the weather gets warmer so I can practice this more.
Merry Christmas!
Thank you! You too!
Thank you for the awesome tips. I've been riding for 5 years now on a VStar 1300 and I still feel uncomfortable doing u turns and pulling into tight parking spaces. I'm getting my bike ready for spring and when I'm ready I'll be practicing this every day! I will also learn to get 9n my bike on the opposite side as I am only 5"5. Come down to Illinois so I can learn from the master!

I was actually planning to come there to do a session in August.
@@BeTheBossOfYourMotorcycle aww man! I would make it a priority to attend! I can promote you in my city and make sure your presence is known. While we have some college programs, they are weak.
Ok people, I have been watching this tutelage for 2 years, I have practiced much of this training, the years and miles I have under my belt don't matter a tinkers damn. It's knowing Roberts information and consciously applying these techniques every chance you get. For me, If I go anywhere it is a minimum of 40 miles to be anywhere there are locations to supply fundamental needs. Yes it's a choice, but it's also perfect to run all of these training steps. Am I a t10? no, no, not even close, it depends on the day and circumstances. The last trip into the city for medical appointments started at 28 degrees Fahrenheit and never rose above 50 degrees. All of these riding considerations, with layers etc, change. You have to adapt the circumstances but the fundamentals never change. I find myself still struggling to improve my riding skills in some applications but it just worth continuing the program. Thank you LT, +200K on three two wheelers and still working to improve.
Thank you very much! It’s my pleasure. 😊
The reality is, when you can handle your bike at slow speed, it’s easier at high speeds
🔥🔥🔥
Nice work - a really helpful video.

Great explanation and demonstration Robert. I really have to practice this as soon we have better weather in Germany
Thank you very much!
Hello To Germany. I was Stationed in Weisbaden for 2Yrs and 7 Months. I absolutely Loved Germany, or West Germany back then. I’ve always dreamed of going back there to Visit and Tour all of Germany. Back then you had to go through Check Point Charlie and the Soviets would follow your Car with Machine Guns pointed at you. We were in our American Camo Uniforms and they really didn’t like us driving through to Berlin.👍👍
can't say thank you enough. subscribed. 👍👍

I really like this tip. It’s something I have been thinking about. I noticed it when doing lots of turns on my scooter. It really wants to fall over at times but a touch of gas pulls it up again. I have a new bike rebel 500 and I will be practising it a lot. Great information thank you Sir.
