Just last week did the same thing with some others.
Agreed 100% thanks so much👍🏻
Can you please do a tutorial on how to pick up your motorcycle if you drop it for us new riders please?>
I had to call a tow because i could not pick it up myself and gas was leaking from the tank all over!~
@@rizzay1 I already have a vide on how to pick up any motorcycle.
Thank you for these videos. Your a good teacher, it shows you care about other riders! Can't believe you leaned that bike that far over...scary to little ol me.
An important note, always practice with someone else’s bike
Yeah, that makes sense.
Not my bike! I'd send a venmo/ paypal request/ evil crow until that "friend" paid me back!!
😂
I would not trust myself, especially with bigger bikes. It could damage trust if you drop it
@@MotoJitsu hehehe lol 😆
My anxiety level is off the roof watching this video 😂
lol!
Right?! I ride a Yamaha Strattoliner XV1900 weghing in at almost 900 lbs. and with a long wheelbase. I was sweating bullets just watching.
I'm having a hard time breathing every thime she kicks the kickstand down and doesn't tripple check. 🙈
I'm gonna completely cover my bike in bubble wrap before attempting this lol! Good stuff as always man.
I would LOVE to see a picture of that lol
I would totally advice you to get a pair of sliders not just for this but for general safety of you bike in case it tip over.
@@GatsuRage that's the first thing I recommend anyone getting for their bike.
MotoJitsu it’s a good peace of mind!
weenermeat where did u get ur name?
not fair man! your BMW probably weighs 30% less than that Harley! hahahaha
Yeah, it's the bike. 🤦🏻♂️
Now she's regretting having a heavy bike man!!🤣✌
doubt it
Seen a number of 5foot nothings handle GS's with ease...
Actually the harley is 10% heavier than the BMW and... It's only a question of good practice. You should see people with scooter.. They don't know how to park it and it's way lighter than any bike.
Great exercise. Also a great demonstration of “shitting a brick”. Good job Monica.
There is real genius in thinking about things that most people would never consider. Thanks to the young lady for be willing to try something new in front of strangers......that takes some guts.
😁👌🏼
You’ve done it again. Simple rules for bike ownership, I always envy how my 120 lbs Mechanic pushes my Gs all over the workshop without breaking a sweat. I’m always like slow & extremely careful. You always talk about the elephant in the room 👍🏼 thanks a million sir
Thanks
Yet, again, another great video that highlights VERY important skills we need to develop as motorcycle riders, both on and off the bike. Once we understand the simple physics, it becomes much easier to master ourselves. As you quoted in one of your videos, "...it's not the bike, it is you." Thank you for sharing your skills in such a wonderful way.
welcome :)

The greatest bike pushing tutorial I have watched. Thanks!
thanks!
AGREE
i was cringing the whole time waiting for the drop
Nope
Was going to post the same comment.
I kinda held my breath when he was doing the kickstand drop thing hahaha
in Slovenia, you have to push the bike forward and around cones, before you even get to sit on it and ride it - it's the first part of the riding test. It's so that they (and you) can see, that you can handle the bike. if not, you fail.
great tips, especially for going backwards. and the 2 finger balancing, gonna try as soon as I get to my bike!
The same in the Netherlands
Similar in the UK, and I believe that the instructors bike that you do it on has to be over a certain weight.
Imaš izpit ali te to še čaka?
@@rokverbic8857 že 2 leti...
Same in France. You have to push it forward, then turn at a right angle between 2 cones that are 1m apart, then, without putting it in the kickstand, do the same thing in reverse... and you are not allowed to turn the handle bar the "other way", but you can go forward again to turn at a "better moment" if you need to (if it's right turn, you can't manoeuvre by turning the handle bar left)
Good Job Monika! One would never think this would be so mind challenging. It surely tested my confidence and with heavier bikes like ours - this is a really great thing to practice. Always a interesting time on the practice lot. :)
:) yes!
Monica was so brave and vulnerable. I admire her (and I think that's why she's so awesome!).
Fast Eddie (Greg) is terrific for countless reasons, especially because he is very naturally eloquent (by that I mean that he is excellent at describing PRECICELY what we need to hear, when we need to hear it....(don't be distracted by non-words such as "expecially"..... my kinda guy). Man, I just discovered that Eddie/Greg is in San Diego! I have been riding since 1972, my Dad/teacher raced Motocross in the 60s and was a Mechanic at Honda of Ann Arbor, and I currently ride a 515 lb 1997 VFR 750F sport-touring bike (THE most dependable high-revving engine ever made by Mankind; many documented examples with well over 200k miles), I have ridden well over 100,000 miles on two wheels, and I am about to contact Eddie to arrange for a lesson. He is SO much more accomplished and articulate than I am regarding motorcycling skills.
❤️👍🏼
I NEEDED THIS
Go and push her around!! :)
A video I'd love to see would be on bump starting. I've only ever done it on hills before, because I have no idea how to navigate pushing it and then jumping on. So basically I'm screwed if I lose my battery power somewhere without a hill.
Maybe
I've seen the racers do it but they have to jump on the seat at the same time to keep the rear wheel from locking when they dump the clutch.
The bigger issue is why did you lose power in the first place, another issue with the bike?
@@ianm432 That is for most of them, some racers don't have a starter on their bike for 'weight savings' and are push-started or a rolling road in pits... hence the need for the bump-start on track, slight differences with Carb v EFI. Carb is same as a kick-starter, can be from dead... Some EFI bikes need to have some power for the electronics before it will work though, eg. enough to light up but not enough to start.
@@ianm432 its not to stop the wheel locking its to cause more grip between the wheel and the road
Put your bike into 2nd gear.....
Run with the bike whilst holding the clutch....
Pick up enough speed then get on the bike straddling the seat.....
Let the clutch go as you bounce your ass on the seat and she should fire up
I remember how badass I felt the first time I held my ninja up with my left hand on the tail and slid the rear stand in and levered it up all without another person's help.
:)
RED FLAG! That bike is too heavy for that young lady.
Nope, just new to pushing it around.
@@MotoJitsu Not trying to be cruel, but she would have way more fun on a SR400 or maybe one of Harley's new smaller bikes. If people could keep their egos in check, they would find you don't need a whole lot of bike to enjoy riding. imho
You're assuming a whole lot of things you don't know...I don't care what bike people have, I just teach them how to get better on it and not judge them on their choice. I give my advice on size bike I think people should get but people will do what they want.
@@MotoJitsu
My 750 NightHawk was 3x as agile and a lot punchier than my cb900 which was solid on the highway at 93mph cruising speed.
I'd downgrade from what I THINK I need to something 50-75% smaller.
Looking at 550 now.
This is why you should go on courses or ask a seasoned veteran.
Another great tutorial!
Thanks
That Harley looks a bit heavy for the chic but still fair play to her for doing it on film good job tho anything that builds confidence is a good thing 👍.
Go practice.
nervous just watching lol, Thanks for the info
You’re welcome
Confidence is one thing and it’ll only take you so far. Physical strength and age factors in too.
Can tell you've done this quite a lot. Good to practice what you preach.
Thanks
I learned something in the 1st 30 seconds of this video! Excellent!!!
Sweet!
Interesting ideas. Things we don’t typically think about doing with our bike. 🍻👍
:)
That Sportster weighs about 650 pounds. I bet she wishes she brought the YZ250F instead!!
Doubt it
This is simple and utterly practical information. I love this! Truly one-of-kind Greg. Thanks!
Thanks
im only about 5'5 so I have to frequently get off and push my GSXR 750 backwards out of parking spaces.
another great video, as always very informative. I keep learning new things all the time by watching your channel, thanks man!
Thanks
A tip I learned when I was training people, start them off doing it with a small bike , (125) then a slightly larger bike (250/350) then a 500 then a 750, then a 1000. This way the trainees feels the differences in how motorcycles behave when weight is a factor. I realised not everybody has the strength to handle pushing, wheeling, manhandling larger bikes. If you have progressed slowly up the cc's and weight categories in your riding life you appreciate the skills and nuances of handling a non running dead weight balanced motorcycle. Your right in saying if the person has bought a bike that there's no way in hell they have the strength to move when it's not running then yes they've bought a bike that's TOO BIG for them and it's time to rethink. There is a knack and you and I know as seasoned riders what that is but new riders have never even thought of how am I going to manhandle this bike in a parking lot or in my garage or anywhere else it might be a tight spot or slightly inclined.
Like you say bud patience, practice and practice. But always remember some new riders have limits on ability. 👍😉
first time I did this one handed walk around... it was hilarious.
:)
Got to admire your student pushing a bike that's 50kgs heavier than yours! I find my S1R far easier to handle than my 883 Iron was too!
Need to be good on the bike you have.
Fantastic video Bro!!.
- Basic, but very necessary. Nice
🌟👌😎
Thanks
Not all bikes because some of them have weak kickstands but you can actually lean it on the kickstand and rotate it all the way around on a dime to turn it around. I do this with my Kawasaki in my skinny driveway so I don't have to fight with it up a hill.
I literally just commented this right before you went into that kickstand section..
What an awesome, tutorial, man... You are a fantastic teacher and it was really useful to see you teaching somebody and them emulating you. Your tutorials really have been invaluble . Love your teaching style and the way you explain everything . Hope you get 100k subs soon :)
thanks!
I did not know that you can lean the bike that much by pushing it
yup
Great video, never too old to learn new tricks that's for sure :)
Go practice!
Can she right the bike from it laying on it's side?
If she can't then it's too much bike for her.
I didn't know that i can be soo intimate with my motorcyle ...haahah..
Awesome video , Thanks!
lol
thanks
I stumbled upon this video, WOW..... wish I had this training 30 years ago.
Me too!
There's another way of moving even a heavy bike when you are negotiating tight corners and narrow paths and doorways that I've seen regularly used at my local dealer in the UK.
Their technique is to push the bars from the front keeping the bike nicely balanced of course and steering as required to turn. When I first saw this it looked impressive and seemed difficult to master but the BMW sales staff use this technique throughout the day even on heavy GS/RT/K1600 machines. It has the advantage of keeping a narrow profile, looking where you are going and avoiding tripping over customers.
This is for the more experienced and needs practise but is fast and clearly works!
Practice is key
Ok , now lean that Honda ST1300 like that.Let's see what happens 🤣🤣🤣 Just jokeing, nice tips there, good explanation for begginers👍
Deal!
I have never seen anyone done this before. Great job! Something I never really considered.
:) thanks
I wish there are people like you teach those things here in the Philippines.
that's why I make videos :)
I loved that push tutorial! Amazing! I have so much trouble pushing my motorcycle around.
thanks, go practice!
Thanks for the good video and job well done Monica!
You're welcome!
She looks taller and stronger than I am, and I just bought an 2006 Honda Shadow Aero...*sigh*
go practice with it!
MotoJitsu.com for my new app, books, merch, etc.
Thanks for making a video on this. The best video on it on RUclips!
You're welcome!
But practice it scary! I think willing yourself to have confidence and not be timid is important too. If you are going to attempt it, have the confidence you can do it and plow through it.. Thanks MJ. Great stuff. I was just out tonight practicing swerves and stops because of your vids! Be a better rider.
Thanks!
You sir is a great teacher! Thank you for sharing!
I appreciate that!
It's amazing how helpful the little "walking around the motorcycle" exercise is for building confidence in the bike.
Great freakin tips!! Thanks!
You're welcome!
To be fair bro, that BMW is lighter than the sportster. And we have to consider the person's body strength as well as experience.
Obviously
What a great video. You are going to be my instructor next year. I dont care what I have to do to sign up for your classes. I really dont think there is a better instructor.
Thanks :)
Hi MotoJitsu & your friend was apsolutely great ,she was Excellent moving that huge motorbike & that shows,if things are worked in the correct way,the impossible becomes possible, thank Eddie
🙂🙂🙂
😊😊
Any tips on how to lean the bike over that hard without dropping it? Is it all about maintaining that speed so that gyroscopic forces stop it from tipping over or what?
Speed.
nice job Monica.thats a tank of a bike to be hossn around.point made,its less about brute strength and more about technique:)
😁👌🏼
6:18 okay.... that was impressive
And that folks is why taking physics seriously in school is important lol nc vid! :D
:)
i have not push my bike before, and I will definitely do this later!! thanks😃
:)
This is very easy to do on a well-paved road but a hell on earth on uneven surfaces.
Sure makes it more challenging.
Check out MotoJitsu.com for my new app, books, merch, etc.
I think I surprised the crap out of my husband on Sunday. Practicing turns and dropped my bike. Turned it off, flipped the kickstand down and lifted her up onto her stand. Didn’t get a wow, got a I’ve never seen someone lift a bike from the opposite side. She’s a 5 HUNDRED POUND Superlow 883 Sportster. I didn’t have to turn around, she came right up. 😅
just did 5 laps with my new (to me) '16 F800GSA - let's just say my shirt was soaked.
:)
When i push my Bike in 1st and pulled clutch its more difficult than when its neutral. Ist this normal?
Yup
I think it depends on the bike. My streetbike is almost fine (like neutral), but my dirtbike totally drags in first.
i was worried that my clutch cabel wasnt set correctly, thanks for the anwser @motojitsu
GREAT TIPS!!! I CAN INDEED PUSH MY BIKE BY MYSELF! I OWN A LOVELY 2017 HONDA CBR300R! IM GOING TO TRY SOME OF THESE BIKE BONDING EXERCISES! THANKS FOR SHARING!
thanks
You just used the perfect motorcycle as an example, because that’s exactly my bike and having problem pushing it inside my garage. So I bought a jack with wheels, so I could rotate it easily. 😄 I’m gonna practice what you just showed in the video. Thank you!
You’re welcome!
Walking around the bike exercise is great.
I’m going to practice that.
Another is to lean your bike on your hip when you push it around. This helps keep the bike leaned towards you. That way if it leaves your hip you can pull it back in before it leans too far away from you. I’ve seen many people drop their bike then it leans away from them too far.
Sure is!
Oh my gosh Eddie, I have an 800 pound Street Glide. 😮 I guess I could practice having it lean against me, and me lean against it for starters with my husband watching. It’s not like we have not picked it up before.
Sheesh...well if you can’t move it around easily, probably too big for you
MotoJitsu Yeah, she is too big, and heavy for me, but a joy to ride, and I had to have bags, and a radio. 😊 I test rode a Deluxe once which fit me perfect, and it was okay, but I could not wait to get back on my bike.
:)
Great video! I think this is one of the many little things people don't practice as it doesn't really "feel" like a learned skill. Yet... I've seen riders ask for assistance in pushing their bikes into a parking spot or just to turn around... on flat ground! This is definitely something that should be practiced. Kudos to you!
Thanks
In the UK we have to be able to do all this to get a bike license, when I hear people are afraid of using the front brake or moving the bike I'm wondering what the pass standard is in the states?
Pushing a bike around isn’t part of any test here.
@@MotoJitsu we do 2 driving tests, the UK is always mega strict about everything. Typical Brits I suppose lol.
Again very useful video
Thanks mate
You're welcome
Lady, whoever you are, you are showing some bravery! These exercises make my stomach cringe even after many years of practice :)
The very first tip of leaving it in first gear with the clutch disengaged while pushing is so logical. One of those "I should have known that" things that make these instructions so valuable.
:) All depends...sometimes I put it in neutral too but I recommend practicing both.
I just tried the walk around with two fingers. I'm using my whole hand to do this and will gradually go to the two fingers. Just a thank you for the tip. Back to it I go. 🍻🤘✌🖖
You can do it!
This is exactly what I needed to watch. I got a new bike that I need to build confidence with. For some reason I am so worried about pushing it around. I would hate to drop it doing something so “simple.”
Appreciate your videos so much.
Very interesting, I usually turn my bike around sitting on the saddle. I'll have to try this to gain that balance confidence. Thanks Eddie.
😁👌🏼you’re welcome
Super useful. Your videos are great supplementary education and what I need (as well as more courses) as a beginner rider. Much appreciated!
No problem! Read books, take courses, practice :)
Hello again Fast Eddie. I just want to say thank you to the passion you bring. You seem genuinely interested in helping people and not just making money. Not only do you spend a bunch of time making your videos and drawing those awesome graphics, (please don’t switch to computer graphics) but you take the time to respond to your commenters. Thanks so much for what you do and I hope to meet you in person one day.
Thanks if I was solely interested in making money I would “use” both my masters degrees in a professional setting.
This was not covered at all when I did my beginner class. You eventually figure it out naturally but really smart to teach it. Kudos!
It’s not taught in any class.
It's ridiculous that in America people are able to ride bikes like this without even being able to walk with it. Glad we have a very extensive motorcycle course before getting ready for a practical exam here in the Netherlands. At least you are teaching people how to ride properly. Have a nice one
Nothing in my videos have anything to do with what America does or does not allow riders to do or not do. My videos are sharing the knowledge I've learned as a motorcycle instructor myself and my experience. What courses teach or not teach don't have any relationship with my content. Do you not understand this?
@@MotoJitsu Ofcourse I understand that the way people get their license in America has nothing to do with your channel. My comment was not meant as an insult or atack at you or your channel sir.
Maybe I could have worded it differently. I just think its ridiciculous that people can get a motorcycle licsence that easy in america without proper(in my opninion) training.
Its a good thing that people like you are trying to learn people new things.
Plus, each state doesn't always have the same course either. Here in CA the course to take is what I teach...other states have different courses.
You don't know what is involved in getting your license because you never took the course. When you come to CA and take the MTC (which is what the courses is called here in CA), then you'll have an opinion based on your experience. Many people who think they can ride can't even pass it.
Very useful... It's 2 months I have my first bike, it's a (for me!) Very heavy UM renegade commando, I'm already quite confident riding but moving it to getting into my fairly small garage it's quite a nightmare... I droped it 2 times already, no scratches thank God but I can be so lucky... great video, thank you!
Thanks Fast Eddie!! great to know how to do the little things properly. Some good and fun tips.......
thanks!
All very well if you’re strong enough, especially leaning it to turn
Thanks for this video!! Just in time for me to move a bike!! I will be practicing this!!
Awesome!
I wish I watched this before dropping my new BMW twice that fucking thing is wrongly designed and nobody can talk me out of it.
Too fat. Too top-heavy.
I weight about 125 lbs, my Dyna LR weighs about 670, it walks me around....yes, it's too big for me, but I try not to let it get the upper hand.
Go practice.
What's jhon Morrison doing teaching parking bike
hahhaha
3:35 I gotta admit. I may have screamed a little bit.
lol
Going faster will not "make your bike lean more". You háve to go faster if you want to lean more.. to counter gravity.. right?
You did not have Monica practice this..it seems a rather advanced exercise? If you get it wrong you will drop your bike or destroy your back 🙈
Nice video! In Netherlands you learn to walk your bike .. it's part of the exam. Forward and backward, park it.. put it on a centre stand. 😊
Dude, this was great to watch. I generally push my bike out of my garage using your two hand method one on left handlebar one on rear rack (Africa Twin adv sport). I have never tried to back it up that way back *into* the garage...only ever "walked" it back while always on it. I'll work on some of these exercises in the coming weeks! That tight turn you did was frickin' intense! I don't think I'd trust myself with that yet.
Thanks! Go practice!
Nice video on an essential skill that's not often talked about.
One thing I like to do after letting the bike back down onto its kickstand is to release the clutch and push it forward a bit against the gear resistance to ensure it won't roll forward and fall.
Thanks
Greg and ? Monica?
Great team video. Especially good for confidnce building apart from technique. Thanks. Need more, Chief!
Isn't it ALOT harder to push the bike around while in gear? With my bike for example (an KTM 1190) and the bike in 1-st it is significantly harder to push, I always switch to neutral first. You are right about the lack of "stopping" power when maneouvering it in neutral though.
Then push in neutral if you want.
I didn't want to post this, cause I feel stupid, but someone might learn from my dumbass. I changed exhaust on mt07. while it was strapped to the trailer. i was excited to take it off the trailer when I was done. It wasn't my driveway. I didn't pay attention to the right to left slope. I had on flip flops. I have a rule, never move the bike wearing flip flops, but I have unloaded a million times. I broke the rule. Perfect storm. flip flop caught on trailer and broke (not the cheap ones with the plug either), slope of driveway caught the bike slipped outa my hands i fell, bike fell. new rule, always make a note of the slope, never EVER move my bike wearin' flip flops. Good news, I replaced the damaged part for $40. whew...
Many lessons learned from that
Awesome sir Gerald Butler
That deeper lean is scaring the p$$ out of me. I get from your other videos that the momentum when you're on it is whats gonna prevent the bike from falling, but how does this work when all you have from it are two arms, and your push? are you actively sliding it during the lean? Like rolling a ball that you shouldnt stop or else itll drop?
Go do it and see
Thanks for the video, never been on a bike, really want to go ahead and work towards getting a license but this is the number 1 thing putting me off. I guess I’m not going to know unless I just go for it! I feel like I have the confidence to give it a go now 👍🏻
Can’t believe how far you leaned it over! I’d be frightened to death of dropping mine. Perhaps I should buy a heavy old nail to practice on 😂
Go practice!
I would like to see a video of a Harley Sportster going up a McAdam Hill and then make a turn into a stone driveway that is on a slope. I am in a campground on the second level and I have to turn into my driveway which is stones and still on a slope. Once I get it in the driveway on the level and I park it then I am afraid to move it to get it turned around the right way to be able to go ride.
Please all car , truck , drivers don't think if you are in a metal box you can hit anyone and nothing will happen with you . Life is short take care of others you will be cared by others as well 🙂 🇵🇰♥️
