bike name in starting of the video
Thanks for the excellent video! Not checking their mirrors sufficiently while riding or even adjusting them before pulling off.
Not riding with their headlights on, despite it being illegal to do so in some countries.
Not checking oil/coolant levels.
Setting (older carburetted) bikes petcock (fuel tap) in the "RESERVE" position instead of "ON" when there's plenty of fuel in the tank = no warning before running out of fuel.
I could go on and on but these points are minor compared to those mentioned in this video.

Riding without any training and not understanding you have NO EXPERIENCE (and no, your friend, father, brother, sister, mother etc etc who also learned with no training doesn't count)! SOOO many people here think braking is always the rear brake. Hint - why do you think the front brake disc is bigger than the rear? Had to loosen and free up the front brakes on a few bikes for people because they just don't use them - accident waiting to happen due longer stopping distance in emergency with rear brake only and a front (the primary brake) brake that won't work properly due lack of use!
1. Not wearing protection gear
2. Leaving your side stand down
3. Leaving turn signals on
4. Neglecting chain maintenance
5. Not checking tyre pressure
You mean "tire"?
@@collectiveleak depends on where you're from
6. Checking the oil!!!
There is a right way to spell and there is a wrong way to spell, colour, Armour, and Tyre aren't words, Eurotards just don't want to get with the program
For those who's asking, that is Yamaha xsr 900
Thanks man
Thanks man.. you are god
Speed limit is 100 so 200 cc is max . whats the point of 900?
Beautiful bike!
@@J.Shane_24 strange. Speed limit is 110 km /h . even a 150 cc will do just fine. Vibration will help americans slim down. Power when not in use is a waste just lije drugs.
Jinno describes things so well that I'm not even a Phillipino but I always watch.
Edit:- thanks for the strangers now I know its not Phillipino but it's Fillipino. 👍
Thanks for watching!
It’s Filipino.

For the signal light issue, you just have to practice yourself in using it every time you turn. Once your brain gets use to it, your body will instinctively just do it. You’ll just be surprised after “hala, kusang gumalaw daliri ko. “ Kahit walang ibang tao sa kalye o driver na nakasunod o kasalubong, kung liliko o magchechange lane o oovertake, mag signal light ka. It is another way of self discipline. Based on my experience anyway. And love how sir caco rev the bike 🤣
Tama2 kahit maluwang ang kalye dapat nag sisignal light para maging habit mo na,,
Great informative video! Can i please suggest to make a video for riders on how to properly use the road and how to ride with discipline? To be honest, most MC riders nowadays are becoming annoying (no offense to others who have discipline) on the road because of their lack of discipline. They always want to be ahead & doesn't want to stop and they don't know if they're becoming an obstruction to other vehicles, don't know how to overtake properly (they will always cut you), basta may maliit na space, sisingit at ipapasok parin... especially during a stop light.. laging gustong mauna silang lahat...sorry po, but that's the sad reality of our roads today. Thank you.

Very well said sir. Pinyo pala to ang din sa english. Kaya pala gaya ng iba nag e english din wala ganung subscribers kc yung iba di ma syadong naka intindi. Mas like pa nila yung mga idol nilang vloggers na puro harorot sa daan. Astig na yun para sa kanila. This channel deserve more subscribers. Nicely done sir. New here hehe
The 1st point about gear is very important.
I got swiped by a car at high speed just a few hundred metres from my house. Luckily i was wearing all my gears and can go to work the next day. The whole front end of my bike was gone, but I survived with only minor scuffs.
Wear your safety gears guys!
Agree with all points. I’d also like to add that it’s good to make it a habit to get visual confirmation that your side stand is down before leaning your bike. Just depending on feel and sound might not be enough sometimes. You can also check the surface you’re going place it down on while you’re at it.
Holy Cow! This is hilarious! 🤣🤣 Now I know what Caco looks like riding a motorcycle.
Nice video and some solid advice.
Chain cleaning: I clean my chain before I wash my bike and the relube after wash. I use Kerosene to clean it and then w90 oil as my lube - it collects less sand and gunk and doesn't spray off too much. Both products are VERY cheap too. I can't get chain brushes on my island (I know, right) so I use a baby bottle brush! You can wedge it between the swing arm and the chain whilst you turn the back wheel. They're also very cheap.
Seeing boss caco really makes a smile on my face 😆
I learned the side stand the hard way. First time parking the bike I thought the clack I heard was from the side stand, but instead it was the peg that sprung back after I pushed it up. Luckily I had enough power to lay the bike down rather carefully
The indicator is one I certainly need to work on... Will try your tip
I downloaded training materials from the American Motorcyclist Association and strictly followed everything on it from page one to the last page. I also watched videos on UA-cam from different motorcycle trainers and riding associations.
I also read the owners manual of my motorcycle.
I only rode my motorcycle within our subdivision for a month. After a month of actual riding in our village, I started riding outside.
Nakakadagdag kompyansa if you train hard before riding into public roads.
A new subscriber from India have landed here just now 😉 You're doing a good job.. Keep growing with millions of subscribers ❤️👍
I highly recommend a bike with a side stand sensor, saves that aggravation, but on a similar line, I switch my bike off by turning the key to the off position, however on a couple of occasions I have accidentally also pressed the kill switch, either while reversing the bike in to the garage or while putting it on the centre stand. On returning to the bikes they have failed to start and I have been left scratching my head as to why. Clearly a mistake more commonly done by new riders.
You missed one, strapping down your helmet onto your head!
One thing I saw a lot of during my visit to the Philippines 🇵🇭. I was told it was a fashion statement 😅
thank you for love for fellow roders i like it,love it,appreciate it keep teaching
No Caco! You do cars! Jinno can take care of the Bike Segments hehe. Nice content 💪🤙👌
The one mistake I consistently make and I'm consistently trying to break is leaving my turn signal on!!! . I'm going to take your advice and try to leave my finger on the control until it's turned off.
These are things are so simple and essential they should be considered common sense to every motorcycle riders by now
easiest way to avoid leaving indicators on is, everytime you take turns or overtakes remember to look or glimpse at your dashboard that way you can see if something is still turned on. still be careful not to stare too long😇 you might get hypnotized🤣
Great advice, and not just for motorcycle riding. For any given situation there are thing that you can control to be safe. Don't take any unnecessary chances.
Caco my idol! haha he's a perfect blooper guy to be in your videos
Two seconds in and I'm already giggling.
As about side light, Ive connected low frequency beeper which helps me to turn off. I highly suggest everyone to get side light beepers. Its not for others but for riders.
A. Overloading.
Either excess passenger. You only have 1 extra set of foot rests for a reason.
Excess cargo. Most notorious excess cargo practitioners I have seen are delivery riders.
B. Dangerous accessories
Those “snap on” awnings. I’ve seen bikes crash because there’s a strong cross wind… or a bus passed by.
C. Protective Gear
Required protective equipment isn’t just a helmet. Closed shoes are also required. And for a reason. I’ve seen lots of missing pinkies in the ER.
D. Distance doesn’t matter
Even if you are a member of DILAG, you are still required to wear PPE. Yes, that includes 1centimeter from your point of origin.
E. Anywhere
I’ve seen complaints that claim “we’re in a backroad, remote village; not mabuhay lane!”. Fun fact: even if you are on top of Mt. Apo, you are still required to follow motorcycle laws. And all laws for that matter. And yes, even if there is no Oplan Sita, enforcers can and will “sita” you.
F. Many more.
the only time Caco can flatfoot that Bike is when it's lying on its side
Nice men. Good job.. 👌🍻
2:43 I have a tip. I ride a 125 and when I get out of second gear coming out of a corner I turn it off. It’s a pattern. turn, clutch, shift, clutch, signal off
Cool video .....High five from India bud!!
We lost a friend less than 1 Km from his house on a quick trip to a store. No shoes, no helmet.
I don't have a bike, but this is good one, keep up 👌👍
Very informative. Thanks man!
thank you brother this is very helpful😊 May GOD Bless you brother😁😊
Thanks a lot and Sir Jinno ano po yung turning lights na gamit nyo po sa XSR?
watched just now, subscribed just now too
Love the information and shirt. Do you guys sell them?
I've been trying to limit my hobbies to make more time available, I kept some for health with my main one being my bike right after my family. I hate to say it, I had a huge gap but I've been riding longer than driving, I'm pretty bad about getting down and checking my tires and chain. Here's to making a weekly habit!!
Hi Kuya, as a seasoned biker of over 30+ years the two biggest mistakes I see. 1. Not doing a basic bike safety check before riding your bike. 2. Not looking over your shoulder (we call them life savers in the UK) when turning or pulling into another lane.
I believe in this teachings so i click the red button. Horaaaah
Sir Jinno Some places here in mindanao helmet is prohibited! like cotabato city bawal mag helmet mahuhuli ka! HAHAHAA GULO
Tip about turning lights is inspirative. Thx;-)
Kamustaka paare
Love from India 🇮🇳
I only clicked dahil sa XSR900. Just kidding. Baka mamaya isa ako dito kahit na ilang taon nang nagraride.
Jinno. Thanks for your guidance. Love from Mumbai
Its good for beginners, thank you for your content please do for adventures scooter also
1.Buying more motorcycle than your experience
2. Not being hydrated and being way thirsty and in heavy clothing
3. No eye protection /secure also I have lost perscription eyeglasses in the wind
4. Riding too close in group
5. Leaving key and ignition on
6. Fuel petcock on after shutting down
7. Kickstand in soft floor
Nice tips! Many thanks! 👍
First basic rule for new biker is don’t get biggest most powerful bike you can find, work your way up and you may just live to enjoy a long life of riding
This applies to all, because most of old user usually neglect these safety tips.
Now I wanna see you exchange places with Caco, the mere thought of Caco trying to mount a 1250 GS or ZX-10r is hilarious
Hay!! What’s the model of that Yamaha Bike ??? That comes in the start of the video!!
A little trick for the side stand, first thing to do everytime you throw your leg over. Lift up the stand
I'm constantly cancelling my indicators even when I haven't used them🤣
Exactly broooo!!keep on pressing that shit. You'd feel like a fool but at least you're sure it's off. Been doing it for years!
I really had to comment on your understanding in this matter 0:38 having a driving license is not your right
Yung number 3, marami akong riders na na-observed na ganyan. Kotse or mtb ang gamit ko, it bring confusion sa ibang driver. Always on the defensive driving mode.
I just subcribed watching this video 👍
Tire info was helpful...
Marami Salamat Sir
guilty on some of them haha. thanks for the reminders. ^_^
Take the stand up first thing after you throw your leg over the seat. BEFORE you started. That way it is an ingrained habit. Much less likely to forget even if exhausted.
What is that motorcycle name at the start?
new subscriber here 🤘🖤👌
this is nice mate ..... warm greets from Jakarta .. .ride safe, be safe ...
Thanks for watching, ride safe!
I agree with everything but the gear bit. I wear full leathers every time I hit the road, but it is not realistic wearing full gear in the summer when you are going three miles away to have a coffee with a friend or run an errand. Just imagine arriving to the venue and then staying in your gear in 100º for hours to come. Just not possible.
Came Only for That Xsr155 Love It
Salamat sa info. Anung brand ng helmet?
Can you guys do a review of the xsr700,just wanna know the perspective of a fellow filipino on how it will perform through city traffic and expressways
What is the model of the bike shown in intro is that available in India
As far as the helmet goes, I once fell off my bicycle at 10-15 mph (16-24 kmph) and hit my head with a helmet on. It really, really hurt. I can’t imagine what it would be like without a helmet at 20-30 mph.
U have got a subscriber.
Hey, what Yamaha bike is that you show in the beginning of the video?
Hope you also discuss and give us guides and tips for riders who wants to upgrade on higher CC motorcycle.
Can someone tell me the model of the bike shown in the starting of the video i.e. the black yamaha.
Great reminder
Ganda ng helmet mo sir Ginooo
Yung iba nga nka hazard light pa e, madalas ung mga nka scooter. Di yata nila alam ang gamit.
Ito sana i commment ko.. pero buti may nauna na... Hahaha... Ignorante eh...
superb 👍👍👍
as a biker (i have the bmw 1250gs) i never ride without protection gear, yes it might look stupid, yes it might look funny, yes your friends might laugh at you but! when your friends will be atthe hospital because they were in an accident and they didnt wear protection gear, youll be the one who laughs. personally i invested big amounts of money into a really good high quality helmet, some realy good jackets, really good gloves, and really good boots. also, i got myself an armor that goes ontop of the base layer of my clothes just in case.
All very valid points. Not wearing a helmet - no excuse for that. Ever. Would someone play russian roulette with a loaded gun? No, didn't think so. You may think you are the best rider in the world - you're not. The rest of the points in this video ALL point to the rider NOT PAYING ATTENTION - side stand, turn signal, chain, tires... ALL of these are due to not paying attention.
Hi there! You are my exact height! So I know just how I would look and fit in your reviewed bikes! Cool! Please a review of Moto Guzzi V85tt!!! The 2021 model, euro 5.
I judge how much riders pay attention to their bikes with the chain's condition. Dirty fairings can be given a pass, but rusty, grimy chains just scream neglect.
If this “evony the kings return” ad comes up one more time I’m gonna have to take legal action
Hi Could you tell me what model is this bike u shown in the Begining
