Maybe we all do these things once in a while....maybe some are the extreme end and others just a taste. Motorcycles are fun...don't forget that. If you want to be safe, sell it. Here's the link to all my stuff
As always, great advice. I’m 55 and just bought my first bike since I was a teenager. I got a Royal Enfield Meteor 350, perfect for me at this point. I also spent $2,000 on top of the line gear (white helmet, reflective armored jacket, armored riding pants, gloves and nice high armored boots). I might look like Valentino Rossi riding a tricycle, but screw it, I’ll be protected as much as possible. Your channel has been a great resource. Really appreciate what you do here.
Clutch wear occurs when engaging and or slipping, the clutch, when the lever is pulled in the clutch plates are separated and not engaged, minimal or no wear therefore.
Failing to prepare is preparing to fail.
In males with depression, it is common for us to engage in risky or dangerous activities. Understanding that makes it much easier to control oneself. It sounds like you started to control that behavior based on understanding how dangerous it is with limited skills. Good on you for having the humility to admit to yourself that you needed to learn more for riding fast and improving skills, and actually making that happen. So many people never practice their skills beyond just riding around but our bikes and our health are worth far more than the effort to train a little. You always bring the knowledge and you effort is probably saving lives. I always learn something. Thank you for helping us. Never stop.
I've been motorcycling for 55 years and consider myself competent, but I'm still learning stuff every time I go out....let's be careful out there!
Staying in gear at a stop light/sign does have some down sides. If you are in heavy traffic with no escape routes (it happens) then going to neutral may be beneficial. If you do get hit from behind, when you hands come off the handlebars, you won’t dump the clutch and rev the engine at the same time. The British police always go to neutral at a stop because of that. So, I pick and choose when I stay in gear based on lane widths, escape routes etc.
Question, can you really escape when a car behind you is not stopping? I mean do you really have time?
For No.4, I use a gadget called st2 which blinks the brake lights as I downshift or slow down. It is cheap and GREAT!
Dude, I ain't even bought a motorcycle yet and I'm already looking for empty parking lots to practice my motorcycle skills. All my life I wanted a motorcycle (48 years old btw) but working at the hospital I've seen plenty of reasons to not buy one. Not sure why but I'm ready to buy one. Gonna do EVERYTHING I can to protect myself but I do realize that sometimes there's no preventing certain accidents. Hopefully my gear and training will help when/if that time comes.
A quick glance over the shoulder when changing lanes is a good idea.

I used to forget to cancel my turn signals regularly. When I was took a crash course to get my UK unrestricted licence, I was told that if I didn't cancel my signals (or blinkers, if you prefer) and went past a legal turn, I wouldn't pass my test.
I have wired my deceleration relay to the light to a lightbar on the rear box mounting base. The difference of cars opening the distance behind me during engine braking was very encouraging .
Had people pull out in front of me. Cursed them out, then realized what an idiot I was, still had my blinker on. Love your videos. Inspires me to practice after every ride.
I know you get it a lot, but thank you for making your videos. You have pretty much thought me everything I know. I started watching your videos before I even knew how to ride a motorcycle. I took my MSF course and got my 1st bike in the same week. I have been riding for about 2 months now and absolutely love it. I feel like I can attribute your videos to me becoming a safe motorcycle rider. Just took my first trip to the mountains last week!
imagine how many lives you saved just making these videos. Been riding since I was 11 (mostly rural areas in the Philippines), and i learn a lot about actual city riding in your videos. Looking forward to buying my first bike here in Australia.
I've been giving those tips to my students since I started being a driving teacher for motorcycle licenses in Germany. I love watching your videos, because I always get new ideas on different ways of explaining these important facts to my students. Thanks and keep going.
The stop light when down shifting its a great tip and makes complete sense so the car behind know what you are trying to do. The others are also good, but I think that the stop light is something that most of us take for granted. Thanks MotoJitsu
69 years old I’m riding a 2022 Vespa 300 and try to translate all of your instructive videos. I’ve learned a lot to improve. Thanks for the knowledge bro.
