    so just a tip when you're doing swerving like that last test: rely more on leaning the bike over to turn instead of turning the handlebars. the turning will be much smoother and easier. Just keep on practicing and keep the videos coming. There aren't realy any other youtubers with r3's and you make great vids

      @@cellanddanielleI’m not a rider. I’m not a woman. I have seen a believe 2 women riding it and they appeared to be on the smaller side. I’ve been looking to get the R3 cuz I’m a small man in terms of mass lol. 5’ 10” and 129 pounds. I don’t have a need for a fast bike. But from the dozens of videos I’ve watched it appears to be one of the more agile of the beginner group. It’s 375 pounds. I think you should go sit on one. It’s got a pretty low seat height. I sat on it very well. You might be on your tip toes so I’d suggest going and sitting on them to see if it’s comfy for you.

  • @lucklessgamingstreams1442

    In my MSF course, when it comes to maneuvering around objects, I learned to keep my posture upright and just give a gentle push on the handle bar (left) to go left and (right) to go right and the bike will swerve in that direction.

    Just from my experience with the MSF Course, the U Turn is a combination of using friction zone, looking through your turn and using your back break. Keep the videos coming bro I’m getting my r3 in February or March!

    In Montreal, we have to do a full course to be able to ride. I found that bikes like Rebel 500 were much easier to move around than little sports bike like the R3. Also, when you do a tight turn, to get more stability, use your friction zone, give light throttle, look up, far and where you want to go. It helped me a lot. You can do counterbalance with your body as well. It gets soooo much easier when you use all these technics believe me! I hope these tricks will help you as much as they did for me! Keep the videos coming bro!

    Long time rider but went to MSF with my daughter so we could do it together. I do U-turns all the time. However, I was still nervous I’d mess it up.

      He is actually right about that. I have super fast bike and it was boring to ride the fast bike slow but had too because first bike and no experience. I am okay now- o practice the hell out of that 600RR bike. Found an empty parking lot and just practice for hours. Get R3 as your first bike because it more forgiving and you won’t fall from the bike like I did and had to fix it.. which could be pricey. It’s fun to ride slow bike faster than fast bike slower... it’s so true.

    The lines are confusing ( no more big red cones?) anxiety,& sometimes u go blank after just getting instructions. Sort of like over studying

    This looks intimidating when it's just you. In the MSF course it's you and a bunch of other noobs. So when they screw up you look even better even when you have no idea what you're doing. The real bonus is you ride one of their bikes so if you drop it or tear it up you don't have to worry about a thing. I swear in my state though they'll give anyone an endorsement if they take the MSF. I recall in my class they gave one to this girl who couldn't pass a single test. The rest of us were shocked.
