I learnt and got more feel and control on my bike by just frequently riding in market area 😂...... Small gap to go hundreds of people going around you anyone one will jump in the way and with person seating behind it just makes task more difficult and with the challenge that I WILL CROSS ENTIRE MARKET AND I WILL NOT PUT MY FEET DOWN ...... My body and bike balance increased a lot from it ..... Now I can hold my self still for 5-10 sec without putting my feet down 😎💪
I have so much respect for this man for the knowledge he possesses and how clear he makes himself with it all. Clear enough to make my eyes open about the possibilities that I could never see.
Really appreciate the content of the video Shumi. I just want to put one point forward. In India, bike training schools are sparse and for most simply put, unreachable. We do have access to training grounds with decent road and no traffic. How about a series that takes on how to improve your riding skills on Indian roads. Even upto CCS-L1 would be more than enough. You'll enable a lot of Indians, and I can assure you it'll be great for business. Hope you consider it.
I’ve thought about it and honestly, the school+track is the unlock not the videos we make on the subject. YT has more than enough riding content but applying it is a whole different story. I’ve been through the journey of working things out for myself for years. But one weekend at school will change everything.
Great points Shumi.. I remember when the D390 came in, a lot of young riders usually college kids used to skid or crash on the second set of tyres as they were not like the sticky metzelers which originally came with the bike. So the original tyres were actually compensating for the rider's lack of skill & errors by working harder. The motorcycle was performing better inspite of the rider, not because of him !!
Great. Now I have to justify to myself the new shocks that I added to my motorcycle. Such wise words. And another reason why the journey of learning to ride motorcycles is so much more of a journey within. My friend once told me that he can get insights into a persons mind from how he or she rides in traffic. At first I thought it was baloney but the more I thought about it and observed myself on the road, the more it started making sense. That one single conversation has helped my journey towards better riding more than anything else that I have so lovingly splurged on - looking within. Thanks for the wise words Shumi. And thanks to Powerdrift for being such a great platform. Cheers.
I wish all young riders watch this video. Too much time is wasted thinking about what bike to buy than actually riding the one you have! Takes most people a long time to figure that out. Applies to more things than just bikes. Great talk Shumi!
I used to be quite heartbroken that I couldn't get the RTR 160 and had to opt for the Pulsar 125. But after riding it for some time, I started enjoying it a lot more. And I realised that it had more potential which I need to master. This video was an eye opener. Thanks a lot @Subhabrata
same happened to me I wanted a gixxer 250 but got classic 350 at first I was not happy at all but after some time I started enjoying it and I am able to ride it much faster and safer for longer tours than my friends on r15 and other bikes
So true. . . Everyday when I ride my bike. . . Ik I'm limited by it's performance but I try new things, I learn new things every single time I ride it. . . I ride with an attitude that I'm not a expert I'm learning. . . That makes a difference. . . Whether it be being calm at emergency braking situations or how to improve the cornering. . . Improving the skill is first thing❤️ And having a non ABS bike you've to be super alert every second. . . Shumi is the best to happen to us all❤️😇
Simply put, the lesser the equipment the more the skills you will actually gain. Me riding something as barebones as the 2 stroke Yamaha RX100 actually get excited instead of scared while approaching a corner at 60kmph....We need more episodes such as these👍👍👍
This men is a genius. Its crucial to know that Technique matters over technology. He talks about psychology more and indeed thats so important when its comes to motorcycling . Respect and Love ❤️
This podcast is so much relatable... You have mentioned this many times before and now I get it perfectly because I don't think I am able to extract all from my Super Splendor and I feel so happy that I started from it... Moving on to the Apache 200 will be much more easier and I appreciate the difference that both the bikes have but I will still keep loving my Super Splendor no matter what... Although I wish if I could have found the 2003 TVS Victor GL, I love that bike more than anything...
Ok I felt like watching a motivational video.. I love the PD is taking unexplored roads for a vehicle review channel..it's more than that... love it ❤️..
With the roads that we have, it doesnt make much sense to invest on mods anyway. Glad that the master himself validates this view that I have had forever 👍
Golden words as always!! Reason why we love powerdrift so much. Helps us in many ways of learning more and more about motorcycles and think about it deeply,the learning process goes on and on
Indeed! Simple and Direct as always. No matter how complex the topic is, Shumi has the art of simplifying it with his practical examples and ideas. Thank you sir for sharing your knowledge.
So true and so relatable. I used to complain about my Apache 160 4v's tires but 2 weeks ago I understood that I didn't have the skill to ride fast and better. Now I focus on what I have and I will try to learn few more aspects of my bike. I will also try to go to a driving school in future. Nice content 👍💯
It’s been 22 years since I started riding and I have seen it first hand on multiple occasions of what you told here. I live closer to the hills in a city called Siliguri, from where hills, rough roads, no roads as well as smooth highways are all available. I have taken my Interceptor to places where it’s not only rocky, but also steep that too with the Pirelli tyres! I have seen a lot of people struggle there with even the Himalayan. In many cases I helped them out or guided them how to come out of that sticky situation. The next thing they all say is how can you manage such a heavy bike with less ground clearance than the off roaders in those places. My answer is the same, it’s all about the rider and not the ride. I can even cross the same patch with a Splendour 125.
12 years ago I did overtake my friend who was riding Honda unicorn 150... with my Honda stunner 125 on a long empty stretch of road, both driving with best of their enthusiasm. He was astonished and furiously asked me when we stopped for break. 'how can you overtake me. Your bike engine is 125cc and mine 150cc?' I didn't say a word, i just laughed.
Thank you Professor for throwing some light on this topic which most of us just push aside ...💯🔥 I'd request you to make a video on how to brake more effectively when on a highway ride... We know that in India literally anything can appear on the highway at anytime... So few tips/experience would definitely help us understand how to brake more effectively !
Great stuff shumi as always! I've observed that most of us don't know how to really brake in an emergency situations. I've had a head on collision with a guy riding who came in blindly to the wrong side to overtake, I came to a near stop the guy just grabbed all of his brakes and slid into me head on and this could've been avoided had he known how to brake properly. That's the first thing I learned followed by downshifting properly to use engine braking and it was the most important beginner lesson I was tought honestly.
Yes agree , I am happy to ride my 11 year old 110cc honda twister with stock skinny tyres and don't feel the need to upgrade as I am always ahead in traffic with my skills...and get better mileage then today's similar bs6 bikes...and remain scratchless till date
When Shumi said "Hardly Anyone Of Us Has Unlocked The True Potential Of Our Bikes" I went out and took a look at my bike just to make sure, I'm not a disappointment to her.
I’ve decided to get a ST3 as my first bike (I have been riding for years but have never owned a bike) and basis what I’ve heard, I fully agree, there’s no way I’ll be able to unlock the best of the bike, but the way I see it I’m eager to grow into it while also this is probably the only time I’m a bachelor, have the time, money and finally the inclination to take the leap.
Thanks for sharing your kind experiences and advices to ride a motorcycle more safely and properly. Sir, i am from kolkata. Here we have very few institutions to learn and the classes are expensive to afford for a salaried person like me. All the skills I have achieved so far to ride safely is from online video references and the advices you and other professionals share with us. Thanks ones again for your assistance
I have the xpulse and saw the off road riding skill video where Shumi was riding the xpulse.. i still re watch the video to understand the motorcycle better before riding it off road
Yes this is true we are unable to extract the full potential of our bike. Please make a video based on your personal experiences shumi how to ride a bike on road safely & effectively.
I used to drive my dad's hero honda Splendor and extracted maximum performance out of it. After owning a 250 I did not feel satisfied. Initially thought I should've gone for 390 but then after a few rides and observing myself, I realised that I'm not utilising the bike's 100% performance. So damn accurate!
Your Life is meaning ful, purposeful meaning ful I am blessed to have you as My friend and sincere Guide Thank you sir Keep smiling and guiding us Regards Virendra dr
Such an insightful and amazing episode Shumi! I jumped from a Dio to a Himalayan and the initial days...or maybe even upto this year beginning it was a herculean task to handle this bike in panicky and emergency situations And then the second lockdown happened and I discovered a youtuber called DAN DAN THE FIREMAN, and he analyses motorbike accident or balls in the mouth moment vids and I binged on them and obviously couldn't go out to test these things I learnt because of lockdown but after the lockdown ended and when I had balls in the mouth moment, I realized that subconsciously I had learnt a LOT and hence even in these panicky situations i stay so so so confident and that made me ride my bike harder and faster and better because I know that I have the confidence to handle the bike, either the himalayan or the RR310! So IMO having confidence is the most important thing and that comes with experience and learning 🥲
Moral of the story is, if you want to enjoy your ride you can enjoy on the Xpulse 200 also......just all matters is your capabilities to use the machine.........
There a definite joy in riding a slow motor cycle fast than a fast motor cycle slow... Probably meant what shumi said... Ability to extract max capabilities of bike in head
Yes shumi I always urging to learn more skills on Motorcycles But new gen riders are just obessed with electronics and safety , I mean it's okay but they never worry about improving skills improving
In essence, riding smooth is a technique - it can be learnt. Smooth usually becomes fast. Riding fast is a feeling, it’s vague and subjective. And therefore it’s error-prone and difficult to achieve/learn just because you thought you should today. Smooth is fast. Fast by itself doesn’t exist.
You hit the nail on the head. I totally agree with your views. I am new to the biking world and would like to learn the skills from a school. Can you recommend any in Mumbai? I am confident that I would be in good hands when I learn from the masters and would be able to maneuver my bike nimbly and extract its potential.
From another perspective, most people who end up buying powerful bikes aren't really skilled to own one. Whereas some admit their own shortcomings and start learning, most are blinded by their ego and end up bringing serious harm to themselves or others. Case in point, the KTM RC sisters and superbikes in general, get all the flak for causing accidents, but it's probably due to the rider's incompetency. Just like buying oversized shoes, sure you can get your feet in them, but you just can't use them safely.
Suddenly it felt like my manager giving me feedback about not bring the full potential to the table. 🤣🤣🤣 But it's true to word that we cannot extract the full potential of any given bike at any point of time and we always have someone else to blame for that.
This is definitely useful for us all the beginner riders out there .. Could u please let me know the name of the school which u guys run .? Would love to be a part of it !
Completely agree 👍😊 i am continuously ugrading my skills on my gixxer 150 ... Mader 65k km ..will upgrade soon with better skills to ktm 390... Good podcast sumi keep it up 👍🎂
Hey Shumi, I have an idea, we have owned motorcycles and ridden them and they get worn out and then some, more often than not, its always the engine... What if we could approach the manufacturer where we ask them to replace the engine with a brand new one, just the engine... wouldn't this prolong the life of the motorcycle, theoretically double the life? Is there merit in exploring this idea?
WOW, although every rider must be aware of this. But understanding is more profound in this video. Sir, please suggest a good School in the Delhi NCR region.
Are there schools which teach off road riding? Race tracks and going fast was never my cup of tea but going quick on a trail is something I'd love to learn.
Brother Shumi this is a great idea... Why not, we call 'Brother Rossi', to India and have all fellow Bikers from all biker groups go for a cross Country Ride with some awesomely cause to benefit charity and raise funds for nations who have a low vaccine availability so together we can step up the fight for COVID19 ... '🏍️ to fight COVID19'.
Hey #PDArmy, we hope this helped you understand why you need to upgrade your skills! If you have any doubts, ask us below.
where can we upgrade the skills?
What you said on 5.25 video mark is baisc survival reaction and basic knowledge of riding bike
What is the process to join your school?

Such an insightful and amazing episode Shumi!
I jumped from a Dio to a Himalayan and the initial days...or maybe even upto this year beginning it was a herculean task to handle this bike in panicky and emergency situations
And then the second lockdown happened and I discovered a youtuber called DAN DAN THE FIREMAN, and he analyses motorbike accident or balls in the mouth moment vids and I binged on them and obviously couldn't go out to test these things I learnt because of lockdown but after the lockdown ended and when I had balls in the mouth moment, I realized that subconsciously I had learnt a LOT and hence even in these panicky situations i stay so so so confident and that made me ride my bike harder and faster and better because I know that I have the confidence to handle the bike, either the himalayan or the RR310!
So IMO having confidence is the most important thing and that comes with experience and learning 🥲

I could relate to every word u said. I really appreciate PD for providing knowledge along with other things. Thanks a lot.

Hey Shumi, I have an idea, we have owned motorcycles and ridden them and they get worn out and then some, more often than not, its always the engine... What if we could approach the manufacturer where we ask them to replace the engine with a brand new one, just the engine... wouldn't this prolong the life of the motorcycle, theoretically double the life? Is there merit in exploring this idea?
Beautifully explained ❣️

Humble man shumi is , accepted his limits he did.. "may the torque be with him".

WOW, although every rider must be aware of this. But understanding is more profound in this video.

Are there schools which teach off road riding? Race tracks and going fast was never my cup of tea but going quick on a trail is something I'd love to learn.
Many! Google!
Yes! I am planning to go to a Riding School ASAP.
Thank you pointing out such an important & useful fact.

Brother Shumi this is a great idea... Why not, we call 'Brother Rossi', to India and have all fellow Bikers from all biker groups go for a cross Country Ride with some awesomely cause to benefit charity and raise funds for nations who have a low vaccine availability so together we can step up the fight for COVID19 ... '🏍️ to fight COVID19'.
Sir Shumi is here ! on point podcast
