Guys mansplain a ton. You're very precise in what you were saying. I already know all of this stuff anyway, but I'm saving for a bike in the meantime and getting my "fix" by watching videos about 'em. This video was super easy to listen to and follow regardless!
Thank you! I appreciate that! I’m glad I was easy to understand, I usually rant on haha
Great job on this video Matt! A lot of useful info!! Exactly like learning to ride a horse. You don't just jump on a horse and go. You need to get the feel of a horse and they need to get the feel of you. Like a bike, a horse can do unexpected things and you can come across unexpected things on your trail. Knowing your ride and how to handle it in all situations and riding conditions is a sure fire way to being a safe rider! 💜
What a well put together and thorough guide 👏🏾.
Great work mate. Please keep them coming 🙏🏾
Thank you very much! I’ll try my best!!
this helped my friend who was pretty sketch about riding dirt bikes, ride dirt bikes
That’s wonderful to hear! Glad I could help inspire more people to get out there and go get it!
bought a 2012 ttr125 yesterday cant wait to learn to ride it!😁
That is awesome! 125cc four strokes are percent for not only learning, but also as you get better they are still enough power to have fun as pitters! The 125cc trail bikes still rip when you open them up, dont let anyone tell you anywise! Good luck and have fun!
@@STEN-164 hell yeah thanks man!
Good luck on your adventures sir. Don't get discouraged!
tysnm bro super easy to understand ur instructions very helpful im gonna get a yz125cc 2020 model i no 2 strokes are harder to learn but iv really wanted to get into tha type of riding so ur info is brilliant gd vid yh subbed and liked yh
I am so happy to hear that! And nice, YZ125s are amazing, it will be a bike that will last you a while and you wont find yourself outgrowing it in one or two seasons, hope you enjoy, stay safe and good luck!
I highly appreciate it
Thank You Very Much For Sharing, I Like How You Teach, Now I have a Better Understanding. Plus I am seeing All of My Mistakes by watching This Video, Again Thank You Very Much For Sharing 👍
I love to hear that! Keep it up, remember that everyone makes mistakes, even pros. Just try to learn from them, don't give up, and you will be ripping in no time!
First time on a (buddies) dirt bike today. I should have watched this video first. Still probably would have crashed since I was in WAY over my head, but at least some of this would have helped. Great quick intro for us newbs! This was a lot of fun to watch!
Everyone’s gotta crash sometimes, it’s just a part learning! Don’t get discouraged, get back at it when you can, you’ll get the hang of it!
Awesome video! It's good to be haunted by my past crash
It took me 2 days to learn how to ride with a clutch and always go to a gear that you are comfortable with and for me since I live in a small area I just stay in 3rd gear even though a tao 125 has 4 gears
I’m glad to hear! Keep it up!
How tall & heavy are you and what bike is this? Trying to get a reference point. I’m 6ft 170lbs looking for my first bike
I’m 5’10 175lbs, and this is the KLX140rL, they make three versions of the 140, the regular r model has the tiny wheels and it is your normal pit bike. The rL model has bigger wheels and a higher seat height, then finally the rF which has full sized motocross wheels and the highest seat height, only an inch or so shorter than what you would find on a crf250f
I would say the klx140rL is great, it’s been such a fun playbike. It would be amazing to learn on as your first bike. As a very first bike, I would highly recommend something that you are nice and low to the ground, and have a firm flat foot touch with both feet, this will grow your rider confidence very quickly
A couple of other more powerful options would be a crf250f or klx230r, but honestly the 140 is a very fun playbike that you would still love even when you finally move up to a bigger bike later on!
@@STEN-164 this was a perfect answer man thank you!
For some reason i have more trouble turning right....
There is nothing wrong with this, I find myself way more comfortable with left turns. I believe it is because the throttle is on the right side of the bike, so you are squished up more when turning right.
Most people have a turn that is easier for them, that’s perfectly normal, just try to practice it as much as your can, so that you can better even it out
@STEN-164 makes perfect sense thank you!
