- Опубліковано 20 вер 2024
- So, you want to know how to ride a Yamaha r3 motorcycle? You’ve come to the right place! I explain the basic principles on learning to how to ride a motorcycle. In my options there’s 3 major steps
1. Clutch
2. Up/down shifting
3. Steering/counter steering
Once you get these 3 the process becomes way easier! Remember to find the friction zone when practicing the Clutch. Shift around 4000-6000 RPMS when first starting, and always look where you wanna go!

All weekend long I’ve been checking out bikes. You just convinced me to get the R3 over the Ninja 400. Thanks for all the advice you gave. I’m a first time rider! Safe riding bro!
Awosme bro! Great choice! Welcome to the team 💙
@@gh0st271 what if i were to get both would you recommend that
@ stop it 🤡
Same here 😂
Hows it been?
R3's are very forgiving bikes, which makes it super easy to learn clutch/friction zones. I started on a Grom and it was less forgiving on the clutch. I would stall it so easily. With the R3 I never had issues. It was such a breeze to grasp. I still have my 2020 R3 and love it!
your comment is great to me because my brother literally started on a Grom and now has an R3! Also, you gave me a lot more hope, because I'm learning on the R3 now and was wishing I would've on the Grom because I am short, but I have some hope now lol!
@@caitlinc9235 short is not even a problem bud. My sister is 170cm and she easily ride my bike which is R3 too and my height is 182cm so ?
@@fillettru bro 182cm is tall lol.
I learnt on the grom too. I thought I was the only one having that prob.
I was wondering, “why does this guy have no subs” now I know
I know this video is pretty old but I appreciate the “how to” I’m planning on hopefully getting this bike in a couple years as my first
Random, no matter what... I always hold the clutch in when I start a bike. Just in case something is in gear, or you randomly twist the throttle or something, that clutch pulled in will stop all of that in its tracks.
I was thinking the same thing...
Can i keep holding the clutch while gasing and shifting gears?
@@Chris-oh4rl Yea. You can. Holding the clutch allows you to switch gears. Holding the clutch also cuts off all power to the gas / throttle. So the clutch is there to assist / help you. You could hold the clutch in, and the bike will go nowhere. It’s “almost” like a brake. So to speak.
@@TopshelfJunior do you hold the clutch when driving the bike ?
@@ultimasolucion6904 Only when you need to switch gears.
It’s 2024 and this video is 3 years old. Even though that’s the case, it is very informative for me as a person who is considering buying a motorcycle 🏍️. Thank you 🙏🏽 for this video and I will be subscribing to your channel.
Question 🙋🏽♂️, Are u still making new videos ??
Change of plans man, I pick up my 2021 blue R3 on monday. 🙏🏾 🔥 August came early 😁.
Nice bro!!! That’s awesome
Bout to pick up mine in bout a week august birthday came early 😂
Know it’s 2 year old video but holy!!! He explain the clutch so easy!!! Planning on getting my moto license. I already know I either want an R3 or a Honda Grom. Im looking for something fun nothing fast and those 2 bikes I fell in love with! Thanks for explaining everything!!!
Grom is a toy tbh
The R3 can go pretty fast bro
Picking up my 2021 R3 tomorrow. Your videos gave me the confidence I need to ride. Thanks bro!
Awosme bro!!
you got it? how does it feel? im 19 yo right now and im getting money together for next year, i want to get a R3 aswell :D
@@samholsink6843 Yep I picked it up yesterday. Rode it home 2 hours from the dealership with zero experience! It was scary for sure, but it's going to be fun as hell once I learn properly and the nerves settle down!
@@sixxx-music Hahah, good luck man! What color did you get?
@@samholsink6843 blue
This is like my older brother teaching me how to ride. I appreciate it bro💯
Good staring vid! I’m a smaller dude in my late 40s and bought me a 2021 R3. Such a good starting bike. Light weight bike you don’t have to worry about just dumping on its side when you make a mistake. Loose gravel at a stop can get you when your foot slips out. Painted lines is something to watch for they are slick. Once you get comfortable with your R3 you won’t regret it.
I’m getting a Yamaha r3 in matte black soon! Thanks for posting these bro!
Bro I just got my R3 today and I’ve had it stall on me a couple of time but the way u made this vid was on how to get out of first (1) gear, dope good job man thanks
That blue is growing on me more and more 😍
Good explanation! I'm looking at potentially getting an R3; never owned a bike before but to have years experience driving manual cars, so those habits could be either good or bad when learning how to shift and drive a bike :)
My goal is to get an r3 or a honda cbr 500r?
It's pretty much identical to shifting on a car aside the the neutral gear being in between 1st and 2nd gear. If you have a buddy with a dirt bike or a Grom you can learn how to do it on that first before you learn on a R3
Great video bro, i remember back when i first started riding geared bikes and i spent a whole day in an empty carpark near my house practicing clutch control just like this. Anyone watchint this can rest easy knowing its great advice and gets you very comfortable with the bike.
just got a 2018 r3 with full akrapovic exhaust + tune (it sounds incredible, i cant believe its only a 300). im completely new to motorcycles but always wanted one for as long as i can remember, i have 2 manual cars (02 wrx 99 tacoma) so thankfully i have some manual trans experience. 1st practice session tomorrow🙏🏼
Been looking at R3’s for 2 months after getting these past few stimulus checks and i think ur video convinced me to get it
Hell yeah bro!
Did you get it?
Throttle-less starts should only be used to learn where the friction zone of the clutch is, in confined spaces. Once you get the feel for it, give it a little bit of throttle before releasing the clutch.
That way you can release the clutch MUCH faster, and avoid being in the way of people behind you. And there is much less chance of stalling the engine. The R3 doesn't have a ton of torque either, so it will stall easier than a bike with a bigger engine.
Once you get the hang of the friction zone, start releasing the clutch simultaniously with revving the engine. It quickly becomes pure muscle memory.
If you do throttle-less starts at an intersection with people behind you, they *WILL* start honking at you!
My experience in the matter comes from riding 250cc bikes, like the single-cyliner Honda CB 250 RS and twin cylinder Suzuki GSX 250 ES. Well, and the Suzuki GSX-R 250, but that one is in a category of it's own. It's a JDM 4-cylinder 249cc with 48 hp and a redline at 17K. It only began pulling cleanly above 6K (5K would fry the spark plugs), and needed 10K to start feeling like a proper motorcycle. And no matter how slow you were going, it would sound like you were speeding. At 80 km/h (50 mph) it would be at 7K in 6th gear. :) And you couldn't adjust the idle by using the rev counter. Idle was 1600, but the counter only began at 3K. XD
Just got my first r3 as my first bike. This helped a lot thank you man
Great video! I'm planning to buy R3, maybe next year.
Yes bro!!
I love how you say, “if you’re a beginner you prolly wont go over 2 or 3 for a while”, bro i literally got my first ever bike yesterday and was already hitting 100 mph on it, then i was dropshifting that shit like a g
Key word "Probably"
😂😂😂
I think he was referring to sane beginners😂
Fuck yeah
September of 2024 & ya videos are STILL inspiring people !
Cant wait till im 16 I just love th Yamaha R3 and learning how to ride it would be perfect for experience
yep, great bike to learn on!
Thanks to Dillion I settled on buying R3 as my first bike and let me tell you I wouldnt buy anything else as a starter sport bike. It was kind of hard adjusting to R3 after learning on MT-07 as turning on a sport bike is harder than a naked bike but when you get used to it, its a great learners bike. dash has everything you might need, has ABS, really lightweight and short bike.
Engine is not that powerful so its good for you to learn on, first and second gear is really short so you have to constantly switch gears when you are commuting, again great for practicing gears. Bike comes alive after 4k rpm, even tho it looks aggressive the bike is really not aggressive. Its a little expensive for a 300cc and its tempting to add a little more money and go for bigger naked bikes but you wont learn to ride comfortable on a higher cc bike as a beginner. I am struggling to go fast because bike doesnt allow you even though I am full throttling it but its a good thing because I get to use the bike to its full potential comfortably knowing it wont launch like a rocket ship and lose control. The more you use it the more comfortable you get, you get used to higher speeds as you get more experience.
@@abyedrikn what’s ur top speed on r3 and how much do you weigh
@@zin9121 170km/h 80kg
Started on the street in 1985, yes, that long ago on the then brandy new Kawasaki 600r Ninja which still resides with me. Just could never part with it. All the years between you name it I rode it. Now I think I want to add one of these to the stable, would definitely be a good choice.
Thank you for making this! Thinking about getting an R3 this summer.
Definitely should!
Immediate like for the intro song choice ❤️🔥
Just bought a 2022 R3, I am a beginner rider having fun learning and riding
Give all credit to this guy. He really went out in winter to shoot the video
Just bought myself one and you were very helpful, thank you
Love it! I think the R3 will be my first bike! Planning on going for the assessment later this week as long as this weather here where I live eases in Australia
Gonna need this video in 2,5 years when I hopefully have a A2 license
Liked the video as soon as the video started. had my favorite song playing lol.
I just started riding this year. & I have an 2023 Yamaha R3 in Black. I added a Yoshimura R77 full exhaust instead of the stock exhaust. Let’s get er done boys! 🏍️
I know I’m late but am I glad I came across you 🙌🏼 getting a r3 in the next week or so and I’m gonna juts mess around in my driveway and then go take my test and this video actually made me feel so much better ❤️
Great video bro!! By the sound of your voice, sounds like you're freezing. Love the thin Blue Line key chain!!
Neutral - check the bike is neutral before starting. Always. Otherwise the bike can just drive off.
Often there a Green N light on the dash clocks area.
If no light then tap down all the way on the gearshift to get to 1st gear, then a half tap upwards to get into neutral.
Hold the clutch lever fully back to the bar, within reason, when changing gear.
What is a clutch?
The clutch is the divider between the engine and gearbox/rear wheel.
It's like 2 CD discs that are hard sprung together, and when you pull the lever it pulls them apart. 1 CD is stuck to the engine, the other CD is attached to the gearbox shaft, which drives the chain to the rear wheel.
When you steadily and controllably release the clutch lever the two discs spring together tightly so they move together. Then as you rev the engine it's CD will be pressed tightly to the gearbox CD and it will force the gearbox to spin which will spin the chain to the back wheel.
You might have heard of the phrase clutch plates, that's the clutch plates just like dinner plates or CD discs. They are literally a couple of round plates.
Hope this helps.
Thank you! Looking at getting a R3, this helped me
I just got mine today !(02/14/2024) and a lot of what you said helped me out a lot today thank you so much !
Im interested in buying the same one 2024 r3 from europe but im beginner, i have been riding couple of times 50cc aprilia, but never bike like this, so im so excited, my question is, is it hard to get used to it if you’re unexperienced?
@@mirkopopov7018 if you had experienced before you should be find to start off like the video it’s not really that hard but I had a little more experience from my other bike but honestly I think by far this was the easiest bike to learn from in my opinion !
You gave me the confidence to get a bike , hopefully I get one tomorrow
Very informative video. R3 looks so good. Thinking about pulling the trigger on one👍🏽
Wow man, you gained almost 2.5k subs in a year! That's crazy. Keep up the good work, I'm looking forward to the day I get my 2020 r3
You just helped me be more comfortable about wanting a bike. I want this same one. Thank you 😌
You explained everything really well, thanks for taking the time to teach the right way.
Any chance you could do a video on the gear the beginners should look for when buying a bike? Any recommendations in terms of what we should get first, how to buy it, do we go for the expensive stuff always without even considering its budget counterparts? I was told for example to never buy a helmet without trying it on first since it needs to fit almost perfectly, so pretty much online shopping in this departament is a big no, no. Second-hand helmets are also strongly not recommended, or so I was told. Do I need to get all four pieces of clothing from the start or having say a jacket and gloves will do until I save up more money? Do I go for expensive leather jackets, or those textile ones will suffice for the time being? Thanks man, subscribed today.
You got it!!
It’s just like a stick shift car basically same concept but yeah it does feel a little scary on a bike. Great vid I wanna get a r3
Learn the fundamentals and then have fun. Boom you know how to ride. It’s way easier than you would think. Don’t overthink it. Take your time and enjoy.
Ngl I was tripping had to check if my music was playing when the video started, good video:) thanks bro
Yessir I'm happy to see how far you've come as a rider keep pumping out videos I love to see them
Super helpful and surprisingly similar to a MT car. Thanks for posting. :)
Great video! Just got my r3 today and this helps a bunch!
4 years before i can buy myself a first time motorcycle thank uu
The letting out the clutch and getting going again after a stop absolutely throws me on my new R3 as a new rider. SO difficult to get right. Stall city.
The more you put gas while releasing the Clutch, the more of the chances it won't stall...yet you probably figure thst out by now😅
Explained extremely well
Good line of view on the bike too
Nice video man thank you, you are a very patient teacher, what we need.
Great teacher thanks
Just bought a 2023 r3
First bike no experience
did u drive home from the dealership?
I feel bad for guys who work so hard abs barely make any progress, keep up the good work my guy.
I was thinking about getting the Kawasaki ninja 400, but I think I’m convinced to get the r3, Ty for this video
Couple things to consider.
400 is faster (more fun)
400 is heavier (less danger in the wind)
400 has positive neutral finder (neutral is 1 click up if you're stationary)
Your a good teacher I enjoyed your video very much!
Immediately I loved your honesty. Subscribed
I love u bro, ima learn everything from your channel man
YOU ARE 100+! Thanks a million!
alright now I want a bike most definitely good basic instructions to shift and get a good feel first def stopping by the dealer ship for a test drive
Thank you for this! It helped out a bunch 😁
Perhaps use a different word that “blip”. In driving stick shift, when you “blip the throttle”, you give a bit of gas, not let off of it. That may be confusing for people that are able to drive manual but not ride a bike.
That's how I was confused for a bit. He's just letting off the throttle, same with a car
Yes he is only letting off the throttle in a fast style. Blipping is fast jerky rev first before the fast off motion so that the revs are slightly up when gear engages therefore helping the bike match the downshift to the engine revs. Difficult to explain lol. The R3 has no slip and assist clutch so it would be good to learn this skill for this bike, although it is not essential and you don't need to do this, provided you learn how low the revs must be at before you downshift each gear comfortably for the bike..
Not sure if you misworded or if bikes and manual cars are different in shifting technique, but you generally dont “blip” the throttle when shifting up cuz that would mean you are giving revs to shift up. You would normally give revs or blip the throttle to downshift for rev matching?
Yea I think misowrded it- you roll off the throttle when I shifting but down shifting blip the throttle to rev match
Got my r3 today, love how easy it is to ride it
Nice. I think showing people you can take off without gas is important for new riders. Also scenery looks like Montana, I am hesitant about a bike because after snow there is so much sand and dirt leftover...any issues with that?
bro didnt I watch you BARELY pass ur road test only because that instructor was generous af & now ur a teacher?
When I get a Re I want the color to be blue like yours I like blue. 🙂 and toriel was helpful 😁
You bike is sick man nice choice and thanks for the videos I appreciate you man that r 3 🎉is crazy 😜😃😃✌️💪
I got my licence on a vespa 300 with automatic transmisson, however idk why in earth i had the idea to go test ride for the triumph trident 660 with no clue about how to use a clutch. However i learned like that fully of adrenaline 😂
Great vid bro, super informative. Thanks 👌
Great video don't forget to make to turn on the fuel valve before taking off
I drive stick and have only owned m/t cars. I understand the concept of riding a m/t but I'm hoping I can translate it to a bike. Lol I have my first class this Sunday.
great video man u earned a sub. can i ask where you got your bike delivered from? so hard to find somthing near by that has the r3 in stock!
Thanks for the knowledge bro 💜
im so happy I drive a standard car so I have experience with clutch and throttle control.
Very useful I might have to get a r3 as my first
Great informative video, it will definitely give others confidence and understanding, peace
man i want an r3 so bad but im so scared to just jump into it alone
Great video man! Keep it up
Holly shit the video I was actually looking for.😂
I had ridden a Hyosung Comet 250R for years, before that a Hyosung Eviv 150, I'm just about about to get a 2022 R3 as I've had a 5 year hiatus from riding. I like the thought behind this video but need to point out counter-steering is not making a sharp turn. It's in the name, when you're going at speed you will naturally look towards, lean and actually turn the handlebars opposite to the way you are turning (i.e. counter-steer) to make those turns. Would be better for new riders if you demonstrated counter-steering on the open road.
Dream bike😍🤟...only one thing should have provide color tft😊
thanks man great video and love the bike
Thanks bro!
Thanks man, love it! :)
great video, good job, thank you.
I heard you laughing when said your ass cheek hanging off the left side of the bike. 😂😂😂 Thumbs up and subscribing.
Bad boy be lit aff 🔥
After watching this I think I'm ready to get a bike and go whip it on the highway 😂😂
Thank you 🙏
My dad just bought me an r3 this week. I’m 13 and I really love it. It’s way harder to turn than riding a dirt bike because you don’t turn the handlebars compared to my Yamaha 85.
Sanaol my friend ! Ur dad is the best dad 😁
arent you not allowed to drive at 13?
@@jaydenk5281 I ride around in my neighborhood and school parking lots. Also I am looking forward to doing track days next year.
The MT-03 IS A NICE BIKE AS WELL
great, I'm all ready to try this out! but first, how do I get to the parking lot
Me and my girlfriend were considering getting me a bike and she drive the car we have now since the market is garbage rn, but you just sold me on the idea now lmao
My uncle used to ride bikes he always told me I didn’t have to use the clutch when shifting up just shifting down
Me over here wanting an R3 watching R3 videos 😅
I just rode my r3 for the first time I went smooth stalled a bit but was able to go didn’t make it out of first gear tho maybe next time
I went to a Ducati shop to shop for a helmet cause I don’t know my size I’m a beginner with no experience so I’m in there and he’s like when you planing on riding I said in the next 2 years his jaw dropped 😭💀
Great video. I am thinking about getting into street bikes. I race motocross, so motorcycles aren't foreign to me. I don't know if you are familiar with motocross, but do some of the skills translate over to street bikes?
