Dude im learning myself just from you teaching her, you should teach people how to ride man you are very humble and could waken dead ears the way you teach, AWESOME VIDEO DUDE
Great video man. I wish I had this when I was learning, unfortunately i didn’t, but I am teaching my girlfriend and this video basically helped explain exactly what I was trying to say. Great video, and thanks!
If you're going to put a lowering link on a bike, it's also a good idea to slide the fork tubes up through the triple trees a bit. You don't want to lower one end drastically without lowering the other, or it does wonky things to the handling characteristics.
Starting slow is absolutely crucial. The first bike I rode was a friend's Honda Grom. I just hopped on and got up to 40mph on my very first ride. I was absolutely terrified of turning and could very well have injured myself.
Before an hour only I started watching your videos. That was amazing andot more informative for young enthusiast who trying to make some money. Love your contents bro. Keep on rocking and my hearty wishes to grow your channel to million subs.
You actually wanna put it in neautral to pop start the bike because theres gonna be quite a bit of resistance on a cold engine if your in gear with the clutch in. The reason it was so easy for you is because there engine was warm and all the fluid was to make it roll easier. But most times if your batterys dead you left it on for a long time and it completely cooled down. So itll be much harder to push in gear with the clutch and all so you just put it in neautral run then jump on and put it in 2nd or first and quickly let out the clutch
You're wrong. Pulling in the clutch will disengage the transmission from the engine and that's just as good as putting it in neutral. It's the same ease/resistance you'll experience which will be due to the weight of the bike and the amount of momentum you need to get it moving.
@@Silver_o no thats not true at all youve never actually tryed it ive done it before onn abunch of different motorcycles and dirtbikes. Espcially a cold engine will be much harder to push then in neatral
What a great couple. The bike is still too high for her (ideally she should be able to be flat footed) and that is unnerving, particularly for a beginner. The heavier the bike the bigger the problem. I'm not a Harley fan but one of those which has a very low saddle would be better for her. Until then, she needs boots with high flat heels - but certainly not stilettoes. After biking for 57 years I advise that the above set up is absolutely vital in order to create sound bike control at the most difficult speeds i.e. 0-2 m.p.h. P.S. One important tip, when your seat is too high, is when you are pulling up to a stop pay particular attention to the slope of the road surface. Say for example the road is sloping left to right (i.e. the road is higher on your left) then tilt the bike slightly to the left and come to rest standing on your left foot only. Watch out for pot holes!
Fantastic guy's learning your girlfriend to ride brilliant videos just found your channel guy's love it looking forward to seeing part 2 of riding 👍😃🇬🇧
What i do when teaching someone is make them stall the bike inmediatly so they know how it feels, and whit me by one side so they dont drop it, i think also, specially with smaller people that tend to tip toe is making sure they are ready to catch the weight of the bike, notice how her feet get backwards after she starts moving, i thought she was gonna drop it cause there is little time to get the feet in position to catch the bike when they are triyng to tip toe with both feet and because the bike is moving the feet are pointed backwards, i rather teach them right away to have the bike go to any side and catch it with one foot flat on the ground, cause i see people riding on the street that tip toe around and its not easy to loose a bad habit, besides most young people have the balance to know inmediatly witch side the bike is falling and extend the correct foot. But overall great class and gifted student
Buy an adjustable kickstand and then lower the bike some more using the adjustable link that's already on the bike. She'll feel a LOT more Comfortable and Confident when riding
Thats a great idea! I've been shopping around for an adjustable kickstand and I think I've settled on T rex racing. She would definitely feel much more confident if it was lower.
@@kiraocelot That's true, but once she get's More Comfortable riding the Bike they can always raise it ( in 20 minutes) by using the lowering link that's already on the Bike. Her main problem as a new rider is learning to ride and getting use to riding. A slightly lowered Bike is MUCH Easier to learn to ride ESPECIALLY for a Shorter rider.
Is there any difference in a spot bike or a Cruiser like a Honda shadow vt600. I just need some Couragement to get going. Yes I have tbi but been Achieving goals :)
There will be some weight differences between the cruisers and the sport bikes but technically speaking they should handle pretty similarly for the level of riding in this course
@@LIFEBUILDZchannel yes I understand but I'm stuck at my driveway don't have no one that has time to work with me, so I'm trying to get it done my self by watching videos so I can get my confidence up and don't be over excited/think to much about it an just go with the flow.. right?
stalling happens sometimes i have been riding for 9 years and i think its a year ago but i still sometimes when not paying attention stall it being lazy only using clutch hahah or maybe two years ago but it happens to the best of us
i would say boots and riding pants are more importend when doing stuff like this then a jacked or even a helmet yes please where one but most times with the low speed stuff you feet and legs get hurt when falling
as a beginner dont use the front break in a corner with these speed my first 5 min on a bike i did that going 3mph bike fell on my foot was even stuck my mother is a instructer she was there and not helping saying i should get up my self if i ride alone i have to do that to but had full gear on so feet where fine but i was stuck for a min
first to learn is walking speed with the bike its even good to have a person walk next to you so tyou know how fast to go its even a test in the netherlands the parking lot test
1 thing wrong with this video is do not walk in front of a bike while teaching, one thing for her to be nervous or hurt herself but to have her accidently run into you is another it is hard enough to learn for the first time but it makes it even harder to learn while not trying to run you over, accident happens. Other than you walking in front this is a good video!
oh shit no gloves thats the most importend thing when learning you will put your hands down if you fall and just use summer gloves that fit wel then its like a second skin
The Yamaha R3 has one of the lowest street bike seat heights and then we lowered this one which helps her to feel more comfortable learning to ride the bike. Other motorcycles such as cruisers tend to have lower seat heights as well
Awfully presumptuous aren't ya. Who's to say she isn't going to take the course? I know I learned how to ride before I took the course. It made my class alot easier because I was able to focus on the in-class work and not be too stressed about the on bike portion.
@@marsoelflaco5722 you exact words " but She'd benefit more from a MSF beginner course" That implies that he isn't teaching her very well. Again I argue the fact that the MSF course for me was a technicality, the only reason I took it was because Oregon requires it for "new" (meaning unlicensed/no endorsement riders). Otherwise I learned nothing new in the classes that I wasn't taught privately.
@@marsoelflaco5722 obviously you don't care. You made the same comment two different times. Good back pedal though. Thank you for your invaluable professional input.
I think you cheated a bit and did some rehersals befor the video? In anyway, its the way to learn any newbies to ride a bike, one have to comfortly use the manual gearbox/clutch/gas handle and the front brake!

yes this is how the ducatie dealer lowerd my mothers 2019 monster 900 they lowerd the whole bike front and back and changed levers etc
As a short female it feels good and more comforting to know how my body is going to contour to the bike. Thank you short girlfriend👍🏽
Hobby Lobby!!! But "grabbing" the front brake is a recipe for crashing bro. Squeezing is the better word to explain it.
First lesson. ALWAYS KEEP YOUR HEAD UP AND LOOK WHERE YOU INTEND TO RIDE TO.
Teach it from the start.
I’ve learned something new today, that battery trick when it dies appreciate it👍🏾
Glad I could help! It’s very useful!

What song did you use for your intro? Love that sound

be carefull only use two fingers with the front brake otherwise you will break to hard, nice video :)
