This video covers Practice Session #11 and was held on February 21, 2021. We had good weather and even better practicing! We also had a lot of fun! So if you'd like to join us for some entertainment or to maybe pick up a few skill lessons, grab a comfortable chair and watch Robert, David, Deanndra, Tom, Garnett and Keeley practice , on our quest to be the Boss of our motorcycles!👍🏾😄
You may be asking yourself, who are PRELOADERS?
PRELOADERS:
Subscribers to this channel who are dedicated to being proficient in slow speed motorcycle operation.
What does PRELOAD mean?
PRELOAD:
Engaging the throttle to raise the RPM’s (revolutions per minute) above idle and holding the throttle there, with the clutch pulled in (no power to the rear wheel, “in reserve” “PRELOADED”). This process will make power to the rear wheel available to the rider immediately when the clutch is opened up. There’s no need for the rider to be concerned with twisting the throttle for power because it’s already PRELOADED.

What a CHAMP of a video!!!!!
Being a female rider myself, many hats off to Ms. Dee!!!!!!! She did an AMAZING JOB!!!!!! Thank you for sharing your knowledge!!! God Bless you and Much Love from EAST TENNESSEE ❤️❤️🙏❤️🙏❤️❤️❤️🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏💗💗🙏
Thank you very much! It’s my pleasure. 😊
What an AMAZING teacher you are!!
Have learned so much, just by watching the last 2 weeks. Thank you for ALL YOU DO to help keep us safe.❤❤❤❤ Much love from EAST TENNESSEE ❤️💕❤️❤️
It’s my pleasure. 😊 I’m happy that my channel has been helpful to you! That makes all the time and effort that I put into this so worthwhile!
Also, thank you for the compliment!
You are without a doubt one of the greatest teachers in existence. Thank you so much 🙏.
Thank you very much! 👍🏾
Hey Robert came in off the road. I am a OTR you know I had mentioned that got the tee shirt but disappointed in the photos not good maybe you should mention it to thoses who prepared it. just for you our FYI
If I had a way to send you a photo of the tee shirt front and back so you and the Mrs could see what shottie work they are sending out after you already paid for it bad business
@@NoName-xf2nf sorry to hear that. This is the first I’ve heard of this. You do have a way to send the picture via email.
Like the way you introduce every body taking the class to the show, gets em to feel comfortable before they start the course
Thank you very much!
Hello Robert. As I sit here watching this video I am also looking out my window at a snow storm. Newfoundland Canada does not have your weather that you are so lucky to have. To watch your videos and see sunshine is up lifting. I have watched many of your videos and enjoy watching. Watching people make mistakes will only help me to avoid making them myself. In your case you are trying to help rides to become better riders. If they take just one thing from the lessons I am sure you accomplished your mission. I Thank you for your time helping others and myself. In closing, to the people who leave negative comments why do you watch these videos. You can just go to the next You Tube video and take your negativity with you. Don’t criticize Robert for trying his best to pass on his knowledge onto others weather or not his way is the best or not. Thank you Robert for your time and effort
Thank you very much Darren! I’m very happy that my channel is beneficial to you. That really makes it all worthwhile. And what you mentioned is true. Seeing peoples improvements right before my eyes is like fuel for me.
Regarding the negative comments, I appreciate your comments. This channel is filled with so much positivity, I will never give someone that leaves a negative comment a second of my time with a response. I’d rather devote that time to my Preloaders!! Plus, my Preloaders usually police that for me anyway.😁👍🏾
same in Ontario Canada, I'm fairly new rider 2 seasons, I agree awesome site and hello from Fort Erie Ontario Canada
@@MrGordon121 Thank you. 😊
Your saving life’s sir! I’ve been turning with clutch only. Preload so much easier on right hand turns. So much more confidence
Thank you very much! I’m happy I was able to help! Thank you for watching and hopefully you’re subscribed!👍🏾😊
Well done! Subscribed and ready to roll. Great to see the guys getting educated. Life-saving education.
Thank you for watching and subscribing!👍🏾😁 Welcome to the family!😊
Love it!!!! Been riding for over 30yrs never realized i was a #1-2 in slow riding,cant wait to practice these methods!!!!
Thanks Jaime. Thank you for watching and hopefully you’re subscribed!👍🏾😊 Please keep me apprised of your practice session results!👍🏾
good stuff! been riding for 30 years without lessens on both sport bikes and cruisers. woke up today to your videos playing in my ear and learned the techniques and maneuvers i have not been able to master to date.
Thank you for watching and hopefully you’re subscribed!👍🏾😊 I’m happy that my channel has been helpful to you! That makes all the time and effort that I put into this so worthwhile! Preload!!! And Keep It Loaded!!!! ©
Damn I feel so much better knowing people are so supportive for new beginners
Absolutely!! Thank you for watching and hopefully you’re subscribed!👍🏾😊
Rob I love the videos you are providing life-saving instruction I’ve ridden motorcycles most of my life but I didn’t know how much I didn’t know until I started following you.
Hey Ruben. Thank you very much! 👍🏾
Another great video. Hopefully the weather here in Chicago changes soon so I can get out there and practice, practice, practice what I’ve learned.
Thanks Robert
Thank you very much! It’s my pleasure. 😊
I love your class!!! One day I would love to visit from Washington State. Your explanation of "preload" was perfect for me. Turned my light bulb on. Haha I had issues conking my bike at stops... holding up traffic at lights... wasting their green light. I am learning to not be afraid of preloading because of my torque. Thank you for your time in service and your lessons.
Thank you very much Jenni! It’s my pleasure. 😊 I’m happy that my channel has helped you. Thank you for watching and hopefully you’re subscribed!👍🏾😊
@@BeTheBossOfYourMotorcycle oh yes!!! Subscribed, Liked and have even commented. Oh and SHARED! I tell everyone about you and Jerry Palladino. You guys are my "go-to" motorcycle trainers. I have learned so much from both of you. Motorcops are the best!
@@MissJenni_ISO Thank you for watching and subscribing!👍🏾😁 Also, thank you for the compliment!
Thank you for putting these together. I took my course probably 10 years ago now, had a small bike that I rode about 1000km then got into having kids! Now my husband is getting back into it and I am looking to get back into it too but I'm a bit nervous!
Maybe with your videos it'll give me the confidence to go out and get a bike and remember all the important stuff I learned on course so long ago.
Thanks so much for paying it forward!!!
Thank you for watching and hopefully you’re subscribed!👍🏾😊 It’s my pleasure. 😊 I hope you get back in the saddle because I know you want to. What kind of bike are you thinking about getting?
Robert, finally i'm a preloader too. Never saw in Switzerland any kind of teaching like yours. I'm a newby, riding only for 1 year now and I've got to do fundamental exams here to take my final driving licence. Here in Switzerland the exams consist in left turn, figure 8, offset cone. Now I'm sure that I've understood my previous errors and I BELIEVE i can do better and go through the exams. Maybe, pandemic ended, I can fly to Georgia to take practice with you in person. Trust and BELIEVE. Thanks Robert!
Thank you for watching and subscribing!👍🏾😁 Also, thank you for the compliment! I'm sure you'll do well on your exam.
If you came here, that would be great! If not, of course I understand.
Preload!!! And Keep It Loaded!!!!
A GREAT practice session video! It was AWESOME to see you and the people on Wood Jr.’s channel, as well !!
Thanks Ronnie! That was cool! Mostly because it was purely coincidental.😊👍🏾
Thanks for your videos Robert. You are the best Bro.
It’s my pleasure. 😊 Thank you!👍🏾
you are a great teacher. Thanks for the lessons. A great respect from Greece.
Thank you very much Nick!
Robert,
Thanks again for your time! I most definitely learned a lot and most importantly I enjoyed the experience. Watching the video helped me see where I need improvement. Gots to work on PRELOADING and keeping it loaded!
Hey D. It’s my pleasure. 😊
You did great!👍🏾 Hope to see you again.
*deanndra brown* .... My hat is off to you ! So cool watching you handle that GLIDE around the cones.
Loved watching another woman ride. You did great! You progressively got better and better. I hope to see you again on one of the videos. Keep up the great work and safe riding.
Great job Dee. You are an excellent rider. I agree with the comments, it is great to see females practicing at these sessions, and setting the example of demonstrating technique over muscle. Robert, great encouragement and recognition of female riders and their skills!
Well said! Thank you very much!
Thank you for the preloaded info!... priceless!..💯👍🏿
It’s my pleasure. 😊
Dang Rob this takes me back to my MSF course New York City!!! I can't wait to jump back into the game
Awwwww yeah!!!!!👍🏾
Rob that was your best group yet. I have same bike as D ( year color) but CVO
I want to thank you for taking your time out and away from your family to teach people you never have met. I will be doing your session soon just hope my back and knees hold up
God bless
I agree. Thanks a lot brother! It's my pleasure. When you're up to it physically, I'll be here, God willing.👍🏾
I finally got a chance to practice this weekend. Your lessons made me much more confident rider. I'm not the 100% boss yet but I will keep practicing. Thank You.
Awesome!! Happy to hear that! It’s just a matter of time. Rome wasn’t built in a day. 👍🏾
LT, I was out riding last night and I couldn't believe how many times I had to make slow u-turns on these streets in Angeles City, Philippines. I took a picture of you with your hands raised. As I was making these unplanned u-turns; without stopping and then turning, I kept repeating as much as I could remember you saying, " The key is where you have throttle and clutch while going straight, that's where it stays for the u-turn. Just turn and lean. Everything else stays the same". The first time I successfully made u-turn following your training I had to do it a full three times because I needed to go back and pick up my heart off of the damn highway lol. I can't believe I said to my motorcyle, who's the boss now switch!? Every time I'm riding Filipinos are watching me on my big bike. So now I am working on showing them my bike don't boss me anymore. ...slowly, loo, I am not the boss yet, but I'm surely working on it my Brother.
I'll be 75 yo in April and this so much reminds me of my training days as a 30 year US Marine. Thanks for the person dedication you and your wife put into your training sessions. God bless both of you.
Hey James. That's outstanding! I'm so happy to help! Keep it up!👍🏾
Always awesome stuff from the preload preacher! One day I’m coming!
Thanks! Looking forward to it!👍🏾😊
Pinto!! My first car in 1971...piece of crap! Haha! Another great show Robert! I’m looking forward to spring in NH.
Thanks Dana! Yeah the youngins don’t know anything about that.😂
Thank you Robert, good group of preloaders in this practice session, they smashed the u turns and figure 8's. Reflects on your ability to instruct. Good job!

Thanks James!👍🏾😊
I agree with Kelley (spelled wrong probably) is right in my opinion. I have some bad habits from the past 21 years that prevent me from being the BOSS of my motorcycle. Practice, practice, practice is what I have to do.
Exactly!😊👍🏾
You're blessed, Rob! I appreciate you 🤙🏽 Hi to Mrs. Rob❤
Thank you! So are you dear. Mrs. Rob says hello (enthusiastically)!
@@BeTheBossOfYourMotorcycle 😊❤
Another (#11) great day of priceless instruction.
Thanks Rob
My pleasure Dan!👍🏾
Pacific Mike, awesome to see your brother🤟🏻
Hey Robert, It’s Keeley. Great Show! Thanks again, looking forward to the next time. The maze is going down.
Hey brother. Thanks! I'm looking forward to that! I'll have a snowman for you as well and maybe the Iron Cross!👍🏾😊
You're very patient and encouraging. A great teacher!
Thank you very much!
I love watching the Robert Simmons show!!!!!! (that was a good one Keeley!) I feel sad when the practice session is almost over and could watch more! :) My laundry will still be waiting for me on the table until I get to it. :) All preloaders!........you did awesome! What a great session! Deanndra! You rock that Road Glide and look super tough on it, and nice save on exercise #4. Please let us know that you arrived home safe and sound. Thank you Anita and Rob for all that you do for us! :)
Thanks Karen! You always literally put a smile on my face!😊 They did do great! I'm happy that you enjoyed the show!😄
Deanndra did get home safely.👍🏾
@@BeTheBossOfYourMotorcycle Oh thank you Rob! 😊 It’s good to know that Deanndra made it home safely. God bless her!
Another great vid LT. It’s super cool how you incorporate the days lessons in Follow the Leader. It’s warming up here in Jersey. Will be practicing in a parking lot soon. Stay safe.
Thanks Milton! That snow will be gone before you know it. The Preloader in you is itching to get out there and practice and I love it!👍🏾
You should come to Alaska and teach some classes. Lots of Motorcycles up here believe it or not. People are only used to seeing us on the road 5 month out of the year, we have some pretty bad cage drivers up here. Riders need your passion to slow speed skills.
Thanks for what you do!!
It’s my pleasure. 😊 I wish I could make it there!👍🏾
Like your channel. Ran across it one day awhile back, subscribed and watching. Love the 🇺🇸 in the background. 👍🏼
Thank you very much! Thank you for watching and subscribing!👍🏾😁
Always enjoy watching your videos Rob, pre loader from Oz 🏍
Thanks Darren!
A super great video Rob soaking it all in
"practicing twice a week now. Maze got me, bike laid down, had cones at 9', but 10' ok to do. T-shirts ordered are awesome, good quality.
Hey Eric. Thanks!👍🏾😊 Kudos to you for trying The Maze. And of course 10' if fine. 12' is fine if that's what you want to do!
Great session LT, nice group of pre-loaders. I like the addition of exercise #9 👍🏻
Thanks Dan!👍🏾😊
Hi Robert, I got to say you are great at what you do! Love the way you teach and how you bring enthusiasm, knowledge and a lot of "juice" to the practice sessions.
I am a high school head football coach, so you're implementation of the "you owe me ten push-up's" teaching method, just puts a big smile on my face!!
Thank you very much! THE PUSH-UP!!!😄👍🏾
Excellent training video. Has helped me a lot. Thank you 😀
Thank you very much! I’m happy that my channel has been helpful to you! That makes all the time and effort that I put into this so worthwhile!
Hi Robert, and greetings from Minnesota. Up here, our riding season isn’t as long as we would like it to be, and I for one am anxious to get my knees in the breeze again. I got my first street legal bike at the age of 16 and I’ve been riding for over 30 years now.
I wasn’t looking for a “rider improvement” video when I happened upon this one, and I almost skipped it to go on to the next video, whatever it might have been. But for some reason, I started watching, and I’m glad I did. From the comfort of my recliner, I listened to what you had to say, and I watched as the participants in your class grew more confident and capable. For advanced riders, some of the principals you went over are pretty basic, but even I came away with a few tips that I feel will improve my riding skills.
I hope to make it to Savanah some day, and possibly participate in one of your classes.
Sincerely, Derek
Hi Derek. Thank you very much! Thank you for watching and hopefully you’re subscribed!👍🏾😊 I hope to see you here for a practice session as well!👍🏾
Another great session! Nice that you brought in the approaching rear avoidance. The queue that works for me in the double serp is to "finish the turn before I get to the gate". That way I try to be straight (diagonal) going through and then teardrop the next. We all have our own ways of thinking about it. Not sure if it helps or not.
Thanks Glen! Your method makes sense to me.👍🏾
Your sessions are awesome and so instructional, after finishing watching i went out and practiced. Getting better every time i go out and practice. I was working on the U-turn and at the end i did a couple left and right ones within 2 parking spaces, need to work on the turns more but getting better thanks to you.
Thank you for watching and hopefully you’re subscribed!👍🏾😊 Also, thank you for the compliment! 2 parking spaces?! That's awesome! Keep it up Blake!👍🏾

Another wonderful video. It's amazing to me you can remember everyone's name after meeting them for the first time. Coming from a teacher, I know how difficult that is and I also know your "students" appreciate it effort .
Thanks James! It’s funny you should mention that because I’m horrible with names. I believe it may have something to do with me probably usually not really caring to remember peoples names. Clearly that doesn’t apply to my Preloaders!!😊👍🏾
The only way you should consider riding a bike loaded, and that is PRELOADED........Preloaders unite!
I love it! Preloaders unite!!
Still snowy up here, but it warmed up. Supposed to be hot tomorrow (low 50s lol) so hopefully it will all go away soon from the driveway. At least hope I can commute this week! Another great video. Lots of great improvement there from everyone!
Thanks Marshal! Yes it was a very good group! Hopefully that's it for the snow for you.🤞🏾
Hey Robert
This is the first ever You Tube comment I have ever made
Great channel
Your videos only compliment the Best Instructional videos and surpass the rest.
Your attention to each rider helped me notice their improvement and that is what it is all about Improvement. . Watching you attempt and complete the Key Hole was a bonus. I watched and just waited for your comment when you didnt get it and you kept it real.
I subscribed so Ill be getting alerts and Looking forward to them
Thanks for your dedication and love of riding and helping other become more confident and safer riders

@@BeTheBossOfYourMotorcycle
Thank you for your interest in helping riders become better riders
I started watching the "I took the Ride like a Pro" class video then fell asleep.
I was happy to see you took Jerry class and that you posted it. I have been watching his videos for a couple years and he was the first channel I subscribed to your is the second.
I have watched a few other channels although some are really good and informative they dont really spark the improvement interest for me like yours and Jerry videos do.
You and Jerry say one thing that is soo true and some dont believe
No matter how much experience a rider has there is always room for improvement
I try to pass this information to other riders and I pass a couple of Ride Like a pro disks when there excepted. Seems odd that so many dont want them. But then if they dont want them I am more then happy to keep them and give them to someone that does. And the funny part is when they take off I can see that they need some practice.
I am a self taught rider Oh yah I can ride fast and make the bank turns I thought I was a good rider until I tried some of the tasks that Jerry showed in his videos. I went form a 7 or 8 to a novice. I needed to get some slow speed skills. Those riders that dont except the disks dont now what their missing. For one thing improving their riding skills and 2 the best part is that practicing these tasks is fun riding.
You and Jerry teach that practice improves your skills makes you a better safer rider and it is freaking fun.
Looking forward to your next video and in the comments below I noticed that someone called you "The Preload Preacher " That would make a cool t shirt
Thanks for your videos and your reply

@@robertncole9945 It still puzzles me that more riders don’t see the importance of practicing to become better riders. I’m not giving up on them. The good news is there are a ton of riders that are interested in getting better!😊👍🏾
Hey Robert thanks again for another great preloaded class. I really enjoy watching your videos and learning the fundamentals of slow riding. I find it amazing the number of riders that have been riding for years but are afraid to ride slow. I can’t wait to get out and start practicing. Thanks again 👍🏾

And slow speed riding is pretty much fun and relaxing. Now Robert help me get that t-shirt you know the one the one that you are making that left turn. Now if I had that one I could become a real boss🤣
I agree it is fun! Things that are challenging to me are usually fun.
Which t-shirt exactly is that? I have a few now like that.

Thanks for the Video - very helpful
My pleasure Mike.👍🏾
Just wanted to let you know that I have been practicing the "preload" as well as the "trust and believe." I love it. It sure works great and really builds confidence. Thank you so much for your videos. Can't wait for the day when we may be able to visit. Oh, and question.....on uphill stops at lights, is it okay to use the front brake and both feet on the ground? I'll do the 10 push-ups if there is a better way. Haha
I’m happy that my channel has been helpful to you! That makes all the time and effort that I put into this so worthwhile!
Regarding the front brake on an uphill. It's even more important to use the rear brake in that situation because you don't want the motorcycle rolling backwards at all. If you are using the front brake to keep the motorcycle from rolling back, you have to release it in order to throttle (PRELOAD & KEEP IT LOADED!!). Using the rear brake allows you to properly do this without the motorcycle rolling backwards at all.👍🏾
Awesome 😎
Thanks!
Ok found it and you are wearing it when you did the klocks werks flare windshield unboxing and install. Now Robert if I could get that one and put on back of t-shirt that say Ride like a boss man I think I would get a extra one made. And only speaking truth that photo give me confident in the way you have your head in right position and the way the bike leans and the front wheel is clocked at what ever degree that is
Ah now I see. Unfortunately, those t-shirts were made by my wife exclusively for me.
Ok boss they are nice brother now I know thanks
Oh and say to her they are a boss t-shirt

Thank you!👍🏾
Welcome from NJ my brother
👍🏾
Maybe I missed something but is there a difference for this type of motorcycles for what brake you use? I see the rear brake being used to come to s complete stop and to take of again.
Here we are teached to only use the rear brake for like 20% of your stopping power and when coming to a complete stop you have to release the rear brake because you really need to keep the weight and pressure on the front tire and because you dont really need it and you can't put your left foot down because you need to maintain gear pressure incase you need to take off quickly again and it might pop in nutral sometimes.
Here in Europe and especialy the Netherlanda we have much harder and better driving classes and exams and it takes hours and hours to master en most people need like 6 months of weekly training or more. We need to take 2 exams, verhicle control doing emergency stops, U-turns in a single lane space going above 15km/h , evasive maneuvres above 50km/h, figure 8's in a single lane space going above 15km/h and so on and so on. After you masterd that one you can go for the normal traffic exam.
The rearbrake is mostly used voor dragging it in slowspeed maneuvres like firuge 8's, U-turns in a single lane of space, slowspeed zigzags thrue cones, in slowspeed turns and while riding on a walking pase.
I owned multiple bikes, nakeds sports en offroads (so noth the types in the video) and even without abs, if you know how to aply pressure, you kan easily use the entire range of the frontbrake lever on high or low speeds. No mather the wheater conditions you can even make a stoppie in the rain if you wanted to if you just know how to build up the pressure smoothly and your tires are in good shape.
I ride on a daily basis and I make a lot of miles in the rain sometimes forgetting I even have a rear brake lol.
The rules are the same.
good practice love it
Thank you for watching and hopefully you’re subscribed to my RUclips channel!👍🏾😊 ruclips.net/user/BeTheBossOfYourMotorcycle
Thank you very much!
@@BeTheBossOfYourMotorcycle already bro , very good channel for rider start ride motorcycle . My club is RC Club we have safety riding practice free for everyone in bangkok Thailand
Beginning Rider, both classes I took said to put both feet down and apply both brakes when coming to a stop. Why do you say only rear brake and left foot when coming to a stop? 🏍😎
Keep watching the videos Dan. It’s explained several times.
"that's the perception of a *bawss"*
👍🏾😊
Bro is out here with an aol lol
😂
Hope you and your wife also pre-loaded people are doing well
Thanks Dave. 😊
Pretty good O’l Boy!
Thanks!👍🏾😊
Great session as always. How do I order t-shirts?
Thank you for being a PRELOADER and for your interest in the PAYING IT FORWARD merchandise. The items are right below the comments section on each video. However, it will not display if you are viewing on a TV.
51:00. They could do this test just pulling away from the curb.
Yeah Tom actually did that once. However, for safety reasons, I don’t want anything or anyone around them when their doing this.
Maybe use cones on each side to replicate other bikes
@@danielogrady1639 thanks for the suggestion but none of that is necessary. The point of the exercise is to get the rider to trust and believe. That's it.😊👍🏾
Question. For exercise number 3, trust and believe. For a semi auto with no clutch, Would you press on the rear break to control speed in place of the clutch? Would the sweet spot be found with the rear break at low speeds? 🤔 I’m having issues controlling the low speed
I have a super cub and the first gear is pretty short. After about 7mph it’s time for second gear.
Yes you’re using that rear brake almost like a clutch and you may benefit from actually being in second gear on that motorcycle.
*Exercise #4:* Is the objective to actively control forward movement with rear brake or to just "cover" the rear brake?
Great question! The former.
@@BeTheBossOfYourMotorcycle After practicing these techniques, I am never concerned about making a wide turn from a stop in traffic, where it counts!
@@eugeniustheodidactus8890 that's awesome!👍🏾
Nice video 👍🏾
Thanks!👍🏾😊
No you didn't put the crowd applaud in the backgrounds ✊💯
😆
Hello Mr Robert I have a question for you . How do you feel about your CVO grips when you slow ride to control the throttle ?
Hi. They feel fine.
Buying merch
👍🏾😊
Hello Robert Simmons, before I buy a motorcycle and I’m thinking to buy a Honda stateline I know the rake is further out, can you still do the maneuvers with a bike like that?
Hey Jason. Affirmative! Every motorcycle will have different limitations, but the principles are the same.
Thank you for your reply, I really do enjoy your videos and many more to come, I’ve already bought cones for the practice. lol
@@jasonphaneuf73 thank you and that’s great!👍🏾😊
Did you knock down a cone and not pick it up??? Haha
NEGATIVE!!! At least not to my knowledge. If you saw this, mark the time and report it to me at once please!!!😁
wished i lived closer,
Me too.👍🏾
Hey Robert....what Facebook group are you apart of???
A bunch at this point.
