"if you adjust for not driving a car, riding a motorcycle is about as safe as driving a car" made me laugh
"wearing gear is cumbersome". You get used to it. The real issue is getting overly confident in it and riding more recklessly cause you think you can't be hurt
Hahaha i can relate, everytime i wear my one piece in combination with back protection i knee down every round about and Sharp corner like its a track and in invincicible but its so fucking stupid and im fully aware of that😂
While I don't wear my leathers on the street (at least not often) I do still wear a 2 piece textile with some good boots, gloves and a helmet of course

I got myself a RE Meteor 350 as my first bike. I'v always liked cruisers and while yes, it's pretty heavy for its size and power output, it's the perfect beginner cruiser.
Meteor 350 looks and sounds great, and has an easy-going throttle feel for low speed driving, so it shouldn't be tiring to ride in city traffic like some nervous twitchy throttle supersport bike would.
Thanks for being an advocate, Yammie Noob. The truth is, doing fun things is probably always going to be more dangerous than NOT doing fun things. This doesn't mean that no one should do fun things. Rather, the risk should be mitigated, and managed. I've been riding since I was a teen, and now I'm in my 60's. I can't imagine giving up the freedom of riding, even if that means I'll occasionally get rained on, or have to watch out for oblivious cagers on their cell phones who don't even realize i'm there. You just plan for those inconveniences, and act accordingly. Besides, life itself is 100% fatal. You better do stuff while you are alive that makes you happy, because it's really short number of years, even in the best of circumstances.

Hard disagree that bicycling does not translate well to motorcycling. Riding a mountain/gravel/road/bmx bike at a high level instantly translates into a motor bike. You already have the most intimate understanding of how 2-wheels operates in all situations and it only takes a little bit of adjustment to get up to speed.
But that's a little like operating a go-kart vs. a diesel truck.
so you think a 5 y/o kid, who just learned to keep the balance on a bicycle, could easily get onto a motorcycle (made for kids, ofc) and manage that, just like a bicycle?
I know by experience, back when I was 8 y/o and was trying trial MC for the first time, even as a kid with superior balance, that's a whole new challenge
sure, I learned fast, but I'm a quick learner, and as I said, I had superior balance, and in addition to that, I was born stronger than the average. even all the advantages, learning MC wasn't like learning bicycle
different skills for bicycle might translate well, like offroading and high speed control, but not basic skills, like slow speed control. the weight difference affects the handling a lot, and the clutch might be challenging for some people (not me, as I highly prefer manual transmission in cars already, hate automatic for being too unpredictable at times, and vehicles needs a real engine sound which EV doesn't have)
A motorcycle has a tons of mass over even the most weighty bicycles. Every input and reaction between rider and machine is very much different. Fundamentals are similar, but controls and muscle memory and input/reaction is dramatically different.
There are people who ride mountain bikes and also ride motocross, and even though motocross bikes are about as light as you're going to get in motorcycles, they are significantly more weighty than bicycles. Naked 650 class street bikes are almost double the weight of a motocross.
@@lassebrustadthe skills I learned from riding bicycles made it much easier to learn riding a motorcycle. They're very similar in how they operate.
@@exothermal.sprocket correct. Everything happens slower with more time to react and adjust.
As for the other comments, they clearly didn't read all of my comment. Cheers.
68 year old rider here lots of touring miles. I Hate Rain !! Its always that rain storm 200 miles from home on your way back from a great tour hum bug.
Visibility to drivers is a big concern find shelter to hide.
Perfect content always relevant. 😊
Getting wet is not a problem. Getting cold is.
Riding in wet conditions isn't a problem. Riding with crappy tires is.
Weather isn't so much of a problem, as the rider going unprepared to mitigate inherent discomforts that can lead to life-threatening exposure.
Being from Florida I have learned to appreciate a rain storm on summer ride. It is the most comfortable part of the ride. Unfortunately after the cooling section of the ride it typically gets hot and muggy making you want to twist the grip more than the law will allow. You gotta get dry ya know.
Downhill riding a MTB technique kind of apply to riding a motorcycle you have to apply all of the mentioned above (Counter steering, progressive braking, maintaining traction, speed adjustments for cornering). Of course the MTB is way lighter than a motorcycle but it does help.
I am definitely a rebel. I rebelliously pay my registration and insurance every month, and I rebelliously ride my motorcycle to and from my job at the hospital every day. I'm essentially a 1%er
Freak
I'm a rebel too. I ride to work everyday from by Legoland to Disney World.
What position do you rebelliously hold at the hospital? There are certain hospital occupations that have endless stories about motorcycles.
Wearing gear saved me from either more broken bones or losing my foot all together. So worth the slight discomfort to wear gear i may have lost my bike but it saved my foot and skin from serious damage. I will never ride without gear after my accident.
I was a bike courier for around 5 years before getting bit by the motorcycle bug. I thought they were the same skills, but it is night and day. Driving a car, while completely different than riding a motorcycle, is still more similar to riding a motorcycle than a bicycle. The only maybe comparable analogue is mountain biking/offroading, but they're still completely different beasts.
For sure some of the mental aspects of mountain biking transfer. I've had way more "shit this isn't going well" moments mtn biking than road biking, and the practice being calm enough to correct definitely helps.
You get a little bit of a feel for what losing and regaining traction feels like too.
If u think that riding a bicycle has a night and day difference from riding a motorcycle,u don't know what you're talkin about tbh. The 2 are very similar in how they operate.
@@slimfit767 Agreed, in my opinion both bicycle and motorcycle feel very similar in terms of balance, turning and environmental awareness. However, everything else indeed feels like day and night
You're right about bicycle skills vs motorcycle skills being different. However, in my experience there are some mountain bike skills that are very helpful to have when doing low speed maneuvers on a bike.
So happy you said we're kind of geeky. It is largely the truth. Most of us only look tough on our machines but we're mostly quirky and chill with a tinge of nerd.
7:42 Man where was that big group attack on the news story? I wanna know what happened.
Happened back in 2015 in Waco Texas at a Twins Peak restaurant. It was all over nationals news.
@@kadengordon6941 Just google Twins peak resturant outlaw bikers.
Waco, ATF/FBI was following a bike gang, I think either the Hells Angels or Banditos? and started attacking because the other group was spotted heading that way. They claim they had evidence there was going to be a gang war or something
Google "2015 Waco shootout Wikipedia". It'll come up, and you can find news links in the references for specific details
Bet the lamestream media made hay on that one.

I have gotten caught in many a rain storms, and ever since I rode from Monterey CA to San Diego, at night, in a downpour the entire way (was in the US Navy and HAD TO be back), I ride in wet conditions with a smile on my face. I rarely ride at night, but as far as wet weather goes . . . Never get bothered by it. Especially since tires are SO MUCH better than ever and my riding skills have increased with every year (about 45 now) and classes that I've completed. I completely agree that visibility, distance, and adjustments to the way you ride are crucial ! ! ! But I'll rarely stay off my bike because it is raining or it might rain. Living at 10,000 feet above sea level, where it snows a GOOD 6 months out of the year, makes a true diehard motorcyclist ride at EVERY opportunity. Thanks for all your efforts, Yammy!!! Keep 'em coming, and stay true like you have been.
When you're being chased by a tornado, you need a motorcycle that can get out of its own way. So far as meteorologists and storm chasers know, the quickest ground speed of a tornado ever clocked was just over 90 mph. It was a satellite tornado wrapping around a much larger wedge. So watch out for those stray twisters brushing by, when you're out chasing wedge tornadoes on your Gixxah.
Fair weather rider here. I’m NOT built different lol😂 F using a bike as a commuter in wet/cold weather. Mines stabled 4 months of the year.
Absolutely for me too. I have been caught out in in the rain wearing t shirt and shorts with no screen. That sucked. It's amazing how cold you can get in August in the south.
Ha come to Ireland 🇮🇪 it’s never over 15c
Well, that IT professional comment definitely fits the bill. For me it's spot on.
Thank you very much, the video was really special and explained very well about the world of motorcycles, keep uploading videos, they love you
8:50 im a robotics technician, im definitely a nerd and most of really are nerds 😂😂 every now and then you get a bike bro and theyre pretty chill too or adrenaline junkies which are also chill
While I do partake in your typical high speed runs to see if I’m faster than gixxerbrah omw to Colorado, my normal commute consists of relatively quick lane changes at speeds typically 8-15 mph faster than the flow of traffic. Some call it reckless, I call it cautiously aggressive

You need to go to the Nuburgring, rent a BMW 1000rr and make a video.
North bound on I-35E in Dallas. MV-Agusta Brutale 800 RC...Tight traffic. Rolled up on flat orange Lambo Aventador with killer blond in passenger seat. Waved at them. Traffic got way loser at the 183 split. And that sumbitch TOOK OFF. Left me in the dust. Lol.
This is not a problem in my country since most of the rule breaking motorcyclist ride below 200cc motorcycle
Running from cops? Nah impossible, speeding with 200cc? Yah keep dreaming usually they think they're fast but sadly its not 🤣
From where I am from most people who run from cops ride 50-250cc and with varying success. While they can be slow they can go in places cars can’t.

0:30 "people think motorcycles are faster than cars"
The misconception is from psychological effects, not guesses about laptimes.
Smaller objects appear faster than larger objects. This is why people are so bad about guessing whether they can beat the train. The train, being larger, appears slower than Real Speed.
The motorcycle, being smaller than cars, always appears to be going faster.
Also, inattentive car drivers think motorcycles mystically appear from nowhere to be in their way, this links to the deduction that the motorcycle must have been going preternaturally fast to get to that position they weren't in 5 seconds ago when the car "looked".
Also, the concept that motorcycles are faster than cars goes back to when cars had 5l V8s making 140 hp in a 3000+lb car, and motorcycles with a tiny sub-1l engine were accelerating faster. And cars couldn't brake well, because ABS didn't exist and cars had crappy 4-wheel drum brakes, while motorcycles had "free" ABD, because the front and rear wheels were braked independently, which resulted in better performance.
Those real physical reasons motorcycles were faster, combined with the psychological reasons motorcycles appear faster have persisted in the misconception that a performance motorcycle is faster than a performance car.
When he said it and 90 i almost choked. Telecom and 80 but close enough LMAO
I rode my old cb's in t shirts and shorts from 1990-2022 without incident. I never ride now without a jacket, gloves and kevlar lined jeans.

Platapuses are Monotremes. 'Monotreme', (order Monotremata), any member of the egg-laying mammalian order Monotremata, which includes the amphibious platypus (family Ornithorhynchidae) and the terrestrial echidnas (family Tachyglossidae) of continental Australia, the Australian island state of Tasmania, and the island of New Guinea. Not as bad as hitting a wombat, but still wouldn't want to hit one. We have plenty of Echidnas where I live.
I don't have much choice about riding at night. I find it quite pleasant. But I ride much slower after dark, wouldn't want to hit a fox, cow, wallaby or wombat. There are also large tractors and other agricultural machines to watch out for. You can also just imagine the state of some of the roads where cattle cross LOL!
The idea that riding is just like a bicycle is believed by many. Young guy at my work asked to sit on my R1. I had started it up to warm it and told him not to try and drive it. While sitting on it he told me how he can ride a bike and would be safe asking if it was an automatic or manual. I told him manual and again to not try. He got a little upset and hopped off but the idea that his dad taught him to ride a bicycle as a kid made him qualified to try his luck at a literbike is crazy. 😮
Its believed by many because its true.
@slimfit767 yes, your dad taught you how to peddle a bicycle so that gives you the skill to take my r1 on a test ride. Lol it's that mentality that leads to people looping a literbike in a parking lot.

*> Hydroplaining & Sipe orientation
All too often I've seen motorcycle 🏍️ front tires mounted so that the (V)^ Sipes [ direction of forward rotation ^ ] of the tread are mounted in reverse of how they should be *(∆)^ in order to properly evacuate water out from under the tread for greater traction as the tire & bike moves forward !
I've noticed front tires on some Honda bikes as well as others mounted with the Sipe orientation as I suggested *(∆)^ !
If mounted in reverse (V)^ the Sipes would pull water under the tire causing a greater chance of Hydroplaning !!
Hard disagree on several points.
1.
Motorcycles biggest advantage is acceleration and are faster on tracks with long straight. Cars are also generally faster.
In Nurburgring for example no bike has broken 7 min mark even on shorter version. Fastest road cars are over half a minute faster.
2.
Mostly agree
3.
Motorcycles are more dangerous. You can mitigate that risk but it will always be higher than in cars.
4.
Not all and no one probably believes that. Regarding there are more “rebels” on bikes than in cars
5.
There are naturally always exemptions bit lighter bikes are always easier to handle than their heavier counterparts.
6.
Motorcycles can be taken for a long trip especially if it is made for that. They will still always be more uncomfortable than a car made for it.
7.
Mostly agree.

You just call me a nerd?! Fair point.
Ngl after riding an Ebike recently for the first time in a while, i felt the ebike was more difficult than motorcycles are tbh. I feel much safer on a motorcycle
Similarly with the car point. I also feel significantly safer on a motorcycle, than i do, in a car honestly.
Maybe bcs i used to commute in an ebike for a long time, and got a motorcycle only a month after getting a car, so being smaller on the road is a comfort zone for me maybe. But i feel far more vulnerable in a car, taking up so much of the road (not physically vulnerable, but vulnerable to being hit, or hitting something)
55 Years Riding good MC Vid
Smaller engine easier to control? well considering giving the slightest throttle input from Idle will increase the air going in by factors of 100's of %. the hardest place to control throttle is when giving it barely any, and at 1/2 throttle, opening it all the way only gives 30% more air/fuel. and with smaller engines, they react quicker to the 3-400% more air/fuel with the slightest of throttle movement. a larger engine with more rotating mass takes a tad longer to wind up and send a heap more power to the rear wheel, so a Larger engine is smoother at low throttle inputs. yes it make it easier to lift the front wheel, but if you want to lift the front wheel you don't have to yank back on the bars to do it, and it's the yanking back that'll make you go right over.
Size appropriate... (Frame size, riding position & seat to peg distance, on top of the seat to ground distance) The bike I did the Basic Handling Skills Test on was a GSX150, with a lower seat height than stock... and that meant my knees were bent as far as they can go, My feet were at an angle they didn't like. and even though I could do it, using the rear brake and Gear Lever was difficult, and if I was in that position for too long, would have had no control over my feet at all. even though the little baby gsx was the cheapest option that looks good, it's not "Fit" for a 6'2" person. it was definitely worth getting the V-strom with the same 249cc Oil cooled single cylinder engine as the GSX 250, but with a much larger frame. it's only draw back is the larger front wheel doesn't want to change direction quite as easily, and turning it around in a small space, that's like doing a 3 point turn in a flatbed truck compared to an Austin Mini

Keep these weird facts coming 🙌
A novice bicyclist doesn't use motorcyclists skills but pro cyclist do. Watch the downhill stages on the mountain stages of the Tour de France. Some riders are leaning with a knee out like they are gonna drag knee.
Was your roadside abandoned bike ok?
Riding a pedal road bike prepared me for traffic, intersections, watching my mirrors and knowing I’m the weakest piece of metal on the road. I think it made it way easier to get a gsxr 600 as my first bike considering I drove a stick for 15 years and had some experience on the open road. There’s more similarities than you might expect 👍
Damn I want to start riding to and from work but I work nights that’s not good for me
okay so, get drunk at night and go for some top speed runs without a helmet, got it.

I’m in the process of trying to slowly get my mom to let me get my bike permit. Currently have a job and trying to get into the bike scene. Here in ohio you need a parent or guardian to sign off on permits. Any ideas or tips to help me out here?
Forgery?
I love it but not at the dmv
With similar power to weight ratio motorcycles are not faster than cars, cars will catch and pass the motorcycle because the car has more rubber on the road and can travel faster in turns.
If I’ve ridden a dirt bike for the last 11 years of my life should I have an easier time if I get a street bike?

Hi, I'm new to Discord.
How do I join on Discord?
I'm not sure I agree that motorcyclists are not more inclined to be lawbreakers. If they were to put a device on cars and motorcycles that strictly limited them to the speed limit, I wonder how many motorcyclists would give up the sport. I certainly would. The entire point to me is that they are go fast machines. I'm older now, and I mitigate my risk a lot more than I did when I was younger, but going fast is the point.

From the movie TWISTER, 1996 "cow"
Cars with much larger contact patches will out corner a bike every time.
I'm confused right at the start. I thought it was the other way around. Cars are faster in corners, bikes win in straight aways at top levels.
The Harley rider stereotype is true 99% of the time. Why they ride around with that pissed off look thinking that they are the biggest badass on the road is a mystery to me. I am not talking about the ones with a winged skull or crossed pistons. They can back it up.
South Park was spot on with "The F Word" episode.
COW!!
What are you taking about, Yammie? Cars corner better than motorcycles.
Fastest lap of a bike around nurburgring is 7:10 and a average fastest car is about the same and fastest car is under 6:00! So how is it anyone could say a bike is faster than a car on a track is to say the least not true. Keep watching the noob.
While that is true, nurburgring is a track that greatly favors high downforce builds that are difficult to replicate on a bike. It's also an extremely long track, so any speed differences will accumulate to a far greater time difference than on a normal sized track. Also, I believe bikes haven't been allowed to do time trials on the track in 10 years?, at least outside of touristenfahrten where timing is sorta not allowed :).
Of course, a car would still be faster, but it would be interesting to see the time of a modern production superbike, or even a motogp bike there. My guess is it will never happen because the track is sketchy even in a car, let alone on a bike.
@@Ehal256 ok sure but explain why in the corners usually the bike is holding up the cars sure a bike pulls out of the corner and starts to pull away but entering the corner and through the corner a car will pass the bike or hold back so as not to hit the biker
@@shaun8256 explain what exactly? I never said bikes have higher cornering speed, and I'm not sure the video meant to imply that either.
Bikes have an advantage accelerating out of a corner, not in cornering speed, usually. Sometimes they have an advantage in being able to take a straighter line than a car by virtue of being wider, if there's a crossover point where this means a bike can be faster on some tracks, I wouldn't know.
@@Ehal256 trigger the squid, Yammi said bikes corner faster and on tight tracks are faster but I've even out cornered crotch rockets with ease, it's just basic physics a bike has more power to weight than a car but a car has on average more traction per corner than a whole bike, i.e. one tyre on a car has at least twice the contact patch over a bike, don't think I'm being mean here I love my dual sport, and love my car for going fast, I've looked all over gloom tube here and haven't found an instance where a bike has been faster around a track yet. I think it was Guy who went up against an Indy car the Indy car ran 4 laps to the bikes 3.
To any normies looking through here:
I come from a family of bikers. I had my first bike at 14 and have owned four more since. I ride in all weather and do all my own repairs and maintenance.
So please understand that when I say most of us hate the 1%er assholes too, it's not because I'm not a "real" biker.
