Your a credit to the motorcycle community JB. Taking the time to produce this video when you could have just enjoyed the ride with your buddies. Keep in mind you probably saved a lot of newbies and veterans. Cheers buddy.
Thanks my friend 👊
My phone stays in my pocket in case I come off the motorcycle. I bought the motorcycle to get away from the phone.
Me too. Yes, I still carry a phone, but it's only to use when I'm away from the motorcycle (eg arrive at a destination), so it's not mounted on the handlebar, it's actually stored where I cannot touch it whilst riding. The less distractions the better. When I ride, I don't even have my gear indicator showing ... that's one less unnecessary distraction removed.
Great video, John. I had my last motorcycle accident in 1981, Riding all this time using the precautions you mentioned. I even use the same assumptions when driving my car. Over the years, I've seen drivers get more distracted, impolite, and less skilled. Motorcycling is more dangerous now. Ride safe, buddy. 👍🏾🙏🏾
Thank you so much for this valuable information. I haven't rode a motorcycle since the mid 70s. Durthat time i was riding on country roads without traffic . Your information may have saved my life . I was never taught to ride a motorcycle .I'm purchasing my first bike May 3,2024 . Thank you 😊
I agree with 99% of these points. But it’s not always advisable to go faster than the flow of traffic. Most occasions, yes, but not always. Here in Houston, the freeway/highway speeds are set at 65(usually). However, NOBODY does 65. 75-80 is the steady flow. Just is what it is. 80-85 in this bumper to bumper traffic is simply more unsafe than driving a reasonable speed. The people here just jump lanes and never use turn signals. This is exactly why i stay off the loops and freeways in Houston. On roads like you are driving, absolutely agree. That’s not as congested as what we have here.
One point to remember as well. Watch big rigs with a load. Things can fly off a flatbed which did happen to me years ago. A cardboard flew off and went over my head going 70 on the freeway. I also don't ride next to a big rig due to a blowout will take you out with rubber hitting you in the face or body. I always keep tabs on trucks more than cars due to the fact they may not see you and move over without seeing you. Just a thought.
It happened to me with a sheet of 1/2 inch plywood. I ducked as low as I could. The damn thing still scraped the back of my helmet. I damn near crapped myself.
Come on, Dad, you have more than enough room for a 3rd bike in the garage. IT'S a sin to have a Harley outside without a cover on it. Come on Dad let Cam put his Harley 8n the garage.🫡👍
😂
Truth
Agreed
My Fatboy is always in the elements
Great video with great content on safety . Hope all the new riders take your advice. I’ve been riding for 35 years . Your safety tips were excellent. I am always learning and listening to good advice. Great content again John
Thanks
as a truck driver you are 100% right. never stay next to us. mithbusters did a video on a semi tire blowing up and how bad it really is. plus we cant see much. behind us or right beside the cab is a bad place. also a lot of truck drivers are stupid and dont pay attention. its sad but true. also yes we can fall asleep easy. we work 6 days a week 70 hours. every week. god bless you guys. be safe.
An old buddy of mine & I used to say...Rule #1 - don't crash Rule #2 - refer to rule #1
It's called situational awareness. So many riders have no clue. I'm 69 been riding since I was 16 and still riding. And yes you wont learn a lot of this in a class. The safety classes are much improved but can only teach so much. You can read a book on how to do anything but until you actually do it and gain experience you wont understand. Good video. Stay safe. Also that's why I keep my phone put away out of reach and ride a Road King . No gauges, no music/ infotainment infotainment etc for distractions.
As a trucker of 45 years and rider for about half that I can tell you that you're spot on about lingering alongside a large truck. When a truck tire blows, it does so with incredible force. I've had many blowouts over the years one of which took out the taillight and mud flap brackets. It ripped the metal like it was paper. Also, as a driver, I appreciate when someone doesn't linger next to me.
PS, those remnants of blown truck tires on the side of the road, we call them "Alligators".
Thanks for sharing
When I saw the time, I said, “no way I’m listening to all this!” But it was amazing. So helpful. I needed it.
Other than the informational video about STDs shown in Jr. High, this may be the most important video a person can ever view.
Great safety pointers,I have been riding for over 35 years but the learning never stops ,thnx captain 👍
This is a priceless video. I’ve only been riding 3.5 years but everything you talked about, I’m glad to say, I do. Others I ride with who have years more experience, clearly don’t!!! I understand everyone needs to ride their ride, but I want to make sure I have more rides to look forward to….also If I’m at the front of an intersection, I actually try not to be first away, I’m waiting to be sure all other vehicles are stationary and just last week, waiting and checking for that split second saved mine and my wife’s life! Thanks for everything you do, so much respect for you.
💯👊👍
lots good common sense reminders for sure! i keep my phone off in my bag and zipped up , i use my dedicated GPS for trips bc i don't wanna see calls, texts or emails on a ride no music either ....
Great tips, however one small point you overlooked, oncoming cars doing a left turn on a divided highway, town situations are worse. I have lost a few friends this way, you have NO WAY to avoid them! Whenever I see a car stopped in the meriden signalling to turn left I approach with real caution and try and look at the drivers eyes to hopefully get their attention.
Your tip about staggered riding is also very valid, a few years back my buddy was riding in a straight line formation, the bike in front braked unexpectingly, he could not avoid it, hit it, sailed through the air and when he landed he was implaled on a metal spiked fence, he died at the scene!
I liked your input. Very insightful. I drive a semi and a bike. He is shooting straight with you. But yes I learned from this video as well. Thank you for your time and insight.
Did you mention not riding with no hands?
LOL
Pictures tell a thousand words :)
Great video! No doubt you've saved some lives
Yes, since this video was uploaded, the world's population has increased.
Great indepth instructional video! My son is a new rider so i forwarded it to him to help educate him. Shadetree has a dramatic video on his channel showing exactly how dangerous it can be while sitting at a red light. There is a major crash happens right beside him with a car missing him by inches. Cell phones have made riding so much more dangerous than it used to be. I have lost count of the near misses i have had because of drivers messing with their phones. Thanks for taking time to help educate riders, especially the new riders.
Great video, thank you for sharing the common sense of riding. Unfortunately a lot of riders don’t heed these warnings and tips.
Absolutely!
Awesome video. Very good tips and information. Very much appreciated! Thanks for taking the time to make this video.
Very well done! Thank you for your tips, & reminders! 😊
Being a new rider when I see videos like this that talks about safe riding I always watch and learn new or different tips that will help me be a safer rider. Thanks so much for putting in the time it takes to put up a video like this but for being a true brother that cares about other riders safety. Thanks man.
Glad to help!
Great tip safety video man!! Been riding for 20yrs and still picking up tips for riding! Keep up the great work!
Yes everything you said is true but just now when you all was stopped at the redlight and old dude pulled up beside you well if anything happened behind you you don’t have no where to go but to the left in the path of on coming traffic
Many thanks to you my friend it's greatly appreciated!👍
Hi John, this is a serious important video. Your emphasis on all these important safety observations. Yes, this is common sense but there is a serious lack of that in today’s population. Do not ever touch your phone on a bike! I am glad to tell you that I follow every one of your tips. I was MC licensed in 1965. Currently on a 2023 all black SGS…. Thank you for doing this video.
Great advice!!! Thank you!!!
Very informative. Thanks for the info!
great video John , I usually on the highway stay closest to the car I'm passing so the car can see me then just before I pass I go to the farthest side of the lane away from the car, but I agree with you
Ass a truck driver myself you couldn’t have explained that better .Also remember we have more blind spots than a car and a motorcycle is a lower profile vehicle which makes it harder to spot. Great explanation John thanks we need more videos like this.
I am a beginner rider and I will say this video is awesome. Most of what you covered is stuff I naturally already do while I’m on my Road Glide, but there were a few things I hadn’t thought of and they weren’t taught in the riders course.
I definitely appreciate that.
Love your content. Keep it coming man.
John your Videos just reach another Level.. Road to ONE MILLION!
Awesome video, watched it several times thank you! I’m east coast as well on Li. Would you consider making a video on lane selection on a 2-4 lane highway and lane position. Would def help a lot of riders. Keep the vids coming!
Great tips John! 😊 I use a magnetic case to put my phone on my gas tank but will be getting a mount for my handlebars!
And also on another note, watching you ride with your son brings fond memories back for me as I rode along side my mom from the age of 18 to late into my 30s (mother/daughter bonding was so awesome) and I miss riding with my mom. She decided to sell her bike a few years ago when she got a little older….
Celine from Quebec, Canada😊
Thank you for all the information John!
I believe in keeping both hands on the bars at all times.
Thank you for all this awesome info my brother. Great job and great examples. 👍
My pleasure!
This is very good advice, especially on driving around tractor trailers. When those tires blow out it is extremely loud and violent causing the cap of the tire to fly away from the truck or trailer, potentially causing very serious bodily harm or death. Also the brake pads and other parts sometimes come loose and fly off which can take your head off. Do not ride or drive around semi trucks, not even in your car! Very good advice in this video! I'm a truck driver for 30 years and can't count how many blowouts I've had over the years, it happens fairly often
This is a great video. I feel like I think about all of these things constantly, but it’s a nice reminder! Well done sir
Very informational as usual for beginners and for veterans. Love your views thank you.
Great vlog and important reminders for all riders. Thanks!
Awesome advice here, thank you!
Great video with great content and gawd only knows how many crashes you may have prevented. But, I have to admit that I chuckled several times while watching a bike safety video I saw you riding with no hands on the handlebars. LOL
I am a new rider. Been riding now since 2021 to be exact so keep the videos coming. Thank you sir.
Great, great information!! Thank you sir!
Excellent Video! A Must See for any Rider! 👍😎
Great video and very informative……love your channel
Excellent video. Thanks for the reminders
All solid tips & advice, nice vid!
I couldn’t get your sons Chanel from your link for some unknown reason, luckily it showed up on CZcams Home so I now have it. Cam sounds like he’s been doing CZcams for several years, what a natural. In Canada B.C. it is quite often that they will run the red light regardless.
Great video CF. Lots of really great advise and all without written notes!
Glad you liked it!
Thank you for sharing this video & info! I do not like listing to music when riding my bike only thing I turn on cardo & GoPro and two way video camera!
Excellent video! Pointers i will remember. 👍🤟
Thanks John well done
Great tips 👌🏼 new harley owner here and these tips will come in handy. Love the content on your channel 👏🏼👏🏼👍🏻
Thanks for sharing your wisdom. As a retired motor officer and lifelong rider, I can attest that this video is spot on.
Great informational video for new riders. I’ve been riding motorcycles for 50 years when I started people were more respectful of bikers. But times have changed dramatically and people are so easily distracted by conversation cell phones and information from other devices they may have. I can’t Tell you how many times I’ve talked to individuals about riding next to18 wheelers including and cars. Always always keep your head on a swivel focus on your right. Thank you again John for putting this video out for the new riders enjoy your ride and be safe.
Great advice. I drive a semi and I'm just astounded how many people just ride next to me. And you are right, common sense is not so common
Head on swivel ! Ride safe! Be careful! May his be with you !
THANK YOU ! THANK YOU !
I love your tips but any advice on what to tell the cops when you get pulled over for speeding past semi's , here in Ohio they are very strict on speeding
Never have your bike in neutral at a stop is always an absolute must for every ride.Awesome video!!!
Priceless video John!!! I loved it when you mentioned the the truly “impressive “ things.. like getting home to your wife and enjoy life.. I’ve always said that to myself too.. that’s impressive to me!!! ✌🏼😎 I like the fact that I personally started riding at 37, when you’re young you’re young.. and by no means I’m underestimating a young one’s ability to ride safe. But life teaches you many things!!!
Great advice
Really great tips!!
Awesome content Sir!!!
Can I add....experienced riders should take a riding class every so often. Not only will it enhance your skills but your safety mindset will improve also!
RIDE SAFE, RIDE OFTEN!!
great info John.. guys like Moto Jitsu and Dan Dan the fireman do this safety content.. thanks for adding your 30 yrs of experience to do this PSA on a beautiful day when you could just be chillin w your crew.. I’m a 30 yr rider whos always watching these types of videos.. always learning and refreshing the knowledge base..
Thanks for watching!
Great riding tips!!
Great tips!
Excellent video!
Excellent information...
Thank you sir for your info I just took a long ride from Monday to until today from Tobyhanna pa down to the bottom of Va by myself for my first long run and your info really helped me out thanks again sir.
Great Content and advice! Common Sense is a skill that needs to be honed and developed for all riders.
FACTS ❤I’m glad you’re doing this video for the Safety of Cyclists/Semi drivers..4wheelers Do Not think of Safety of others.
Thank you 4 all the insight I just started watching your chanel as I'm learning more about gear saftey bikes as the only things I dont have is phone mount or carplay device and on my highway riding I ryde slow speeds 60-70 enless on semis im passing them as my 03 sportser is ruff riding @ 60mph the cars shake in my mirrors no rubber mounts
Great video dude. Road strategies can save our lives. Time and distance to react. Speed differential is also important. A little bit of aggressive riding might also come into play. Important one: making sure that car behind you stops before while keeping that bike in gear.
Great reminders for even seasoned riders
5:45 "They do not see me" - 100% best advice ever. Pretend every driver is not paying attention and can see as well as Stevie Wonder. You'll live longer.
Wow , dude 10 minutes into your video and you’re amazing, brilliant safety first , I have been riding for years also , my wife for only a few years and I always say make a safety bubble and all the cars want to kill you and as a bicyclist, same tips apply but , you have a lot more words , man you should be endorsed
Awesome video ❤❤❤❤❤😊
I like your videos. But saying people should have a phone holder mount on the handlebar is a little much. Plus saying that if you have it there it is easier to scroll through it. As soon as you start playing with that phone no matter where it is you have become a distracted driver. Put it away. In your saddle bag or somewhere you can't reach it. Been riding for over 25 years, never mounted a phone to my handlebar.
If you travel long distances like many do having your phone out, is a necessity for navigation. I will agree with you if you are a beginner rider and traveling long distances, there would be no reason for it
Thanks!
Thank you 🙏
Thanks, Gracias
You and Rob should do video together again!!! And thanks again for refreshing me!!
your handle bar set up is great
Thanks!
I couldn’t agree more with driving next to any vehicles. I let my guard down one time after a 14hour work day of work painting cars. I was beat tired cruising home and just in auto pilot. I had a car next to me (it was night time) she looked in her mirror to move over but never straight out her window, she aggressively came right into me hitting my handlebars with her mirrors. It upset the bike something fierce, thank God I have been banging bars racing dirtbikes all my life, it took everything I had to settle the bike and keep it from going down. I had to throw my favorite pair of briefs away that night.
good stuff
I call it. Side Saddling. I hate when cars do that. Pass the truck Get by!!
John great video with a bunch of information for new riders. I am also a new rider and was thinking of your tips as I was out for a ride on Friday. One question I have is, when passing vehicles in a passing lane, where do you position the bike in your lane when on coming traffic of a single lane? My intuition says in the middle of the lane with cars on both side of you. Love to hear your input.
Love the channel.
James
Awesome video John. Sadly common sense isn’t very common anymore. I ride just like you do man. Be safe out there.
I am definitely guilty with wearing earbuds😬🤦🏽♂️. The phone mounting……I have one, but barely use it. In my case, I don’t travel far at all. My longest ride that required me to use my phone mount, was on my way to Orlando. It’s a little over an hour ride. I had some where to be and couldn’t remember how to get there. Outside of that, my rides are only 30mins or so. That’s just going to a store🤷🏽♂️. I ride a 2005 Road King Custom. My first bike ever. I already knew how to ride. I just haven’t been on one in maybe 6 years or so. A lot of this stuff is common sense. Or at least I thought it was🤔. I personally found my self following all of these rules just because I don’t trust anyone around me. I stay far away as much as possible. Big trucks, I definitely speed past them. It’s fascinating to me that I’m already following this stuff as a new rider. I think it’s because I’m SO new that my antennas are already up for anything to attack me. Green lights, I wait a good 3 seconds before I take off. A little rule we have at work while driving our trucks. I ride alone all the time because I don’t know any body that rides. I mean I do but they’re my coworkers. We’re not buddy-buddy like that so 🤷🏽♂️. But what’s interesting is that every time I’m out amongst other riders. I never pull up right beside them. I’m always on their right, or left depending on where they are positioned. Or vice versa. I’ve had a group of riders pull up behind me. He was on my right side. The other rider was on my left side further back. Any ways, I can keep talking😂. I just love the motorcycle life🤙🏽. Very good video👌🏽.
Hey man! We need a breakdown on the rest of the outfit! Jeans boots
right on bruh...
you're right. I will add: don't ride so fast. Be more conscious, know your bike, know driving. To progress you have to agree to drive slower.restrain from drug, alcool and fatigue. Don't think because you have a bike you became a champion and the road is a private closed and clean circuit. Understand your environment, evaluate the potential dangers. Slow down on a complicated area (trees, intersections, traffic, time, weather etc). The vision should be quadruple ; immediate, 50m and 200m & back. Feel your intuition. Ride to be experienced. Go slow, be more intelligent. Ride in India, in Italia or Brazil. Pray and confess your sins. Die happy and light.
I agree with everything you’re saying , I’ve ridden in groups where the person infront of me will get by a tractor trailer and will stay next to them and I’m thinking , MOVE, our they will get in the passing lane and start riding slower then the flow of traffic and I’m in the back and cars are on my ass
Outstanding video Sir!! You are truly a blessing to the motorcycle community. These tips are lifesaving. Keep up the good work.
