@@Motovibes91 Probably he was daydreaming about something since he slammed into his bud..this dude should buy 1st good functioning motorbike like 20 years old since he was in danger to total it (giving his abilities at the moment)
Yeah what the actual hell lmao All the MSF courses were booked for me too, in Georgia so I couldn't get some better supervised practice. So instead, alone I spent like 4 hours across a couple days practicing in my neighborhood before I touched the road, and even then I started practicing in a parking lot. Only thing I struggle with now is going, stopping and going in traffic but I think I've nailed down what habits I gotta fix. Wait a little before I roll forward, be less tight on the bars and let the bike do the work of staying straight lmao A month and about 500 miles around town, on a 2006 ninja 250 with 34k on it and scratches and cracked fairings galore :) good first bike it runs and stops good.
I think it is not mandatory to have a license in order to buy and register a vehicle. Probably this dude did just that. And most surely, instead of starting to learn riding, in a parking lot, with full gear and then go to MSF, to get his license, he chose to join the other dumb ass, ”the teacher”, and ride on public roads without a license. I would never believe that this dude might have passed the MSF and got his license. Anyway, if you look at him, at his face, talking and gestures, it is obvious he is less than not smart. And his ”teacher” is not much better...
in germany you have to obtain a driving license for motorcycles and even with that you cant just ride any bike there are 3 different licences for different CC.
Thats like the dude who shows up to the park dressed like Jordan. Head & wrist bands, sleeves, brand new sneakers, the whole uniform but no basketball skills…smh
Would be funny if not true, reminds me of the same thing I see in self defense training. People having all the guns and gear, thousands and thousands of dollars of stuff when they should be paying for training to actually be able to use said stuff.
I don't even really think he would be safe if he did learn to ride. He's fundamentally immature. He needs to grow up a bit and take things a bit more seriously.
I'm also a learner driver and doing a lot of road driving, but this video made me decide that I'm going to a back to the parking lot tomorrow to practice the basics. You are absolutely right - no amount of miles can compare to a few hours practising the slow manoeuvres
Above all do not forget emergency braking and swerving (and emergency braking followed by a sharp swerve). Slow speed skills are good for not dropping the bike and being able to handle the motorcycle at slow speeds, but the two I mentioned can potentially save your life.
Get one thing wrong at 60mph and you might not be able to make any choice ever again, so good on you mate. Concentration, awareness, skill, mentality. watch this guy and the fireman dude (forgot bis RUclips handle?), they'll steer you in the right direction. Most other RUclips bike vids will just teach you how to be a knob. More than any other vehicle, technique, proper technique, will keep you alive on a bike. Also, cars just don't see bikes, they are not aware and are not looking for you, so YOU need to ride for the cars as well. Absolutely book yourself into an advance riders course also. God bless, stay safe. From Australia
When I did this practice a year after my license, I was unable to do the U turn half the time and my figure 8 wasn't great either. Just an hour later and I remembered how they work.
I learned to ride a bike 41 years ago. I've been licensed for the past 25 years. I still go to the local car park to practice. All you have to worry about in a carpark is your riding, and nothing else. I actually really enjoy it.
Here in New Zealand we have a 3 tier system. Learner, restricted, then full. Each one other than full has time and various constraints limiting what you can and can't do at the particular stage you are on. We also have what is known as LAMS (Learner Approved Motorcycle Scheme) whereby you have a range of bikes that are approved for people to learn on. Depending on the power to weight ratio. For example you can ride a CBR 400R but not a CBR 400RR under it. A KLR650 is allowed even a Ducati Monster 659 is approved, but an NSR 250 or RGV 250 is not. These restrictions can be alleviated somewhat by taking various defensive rider courses such as the ride forever one. Happy and safe riding everyone
That kid is going to get himself killed if he does not take some actual lessons, he should 100% not be on the road with that level of skill. I am also slightly surprised his friend did not get a back injury considering he got slammed in the lower back by the left handlebar of his friend.
I cannot comprehend how bad he is at riding. Even after a month. My first ride on my Zündapp moped went a lot smoother than that. Not to brag or anything, but not knowing how to stop is a level of incompetence i can't comprehend.
@@hueyfreeman7010 It doesn't matter. That guy has a serious lack of coordination. I never rode that badly and I don't even pretend to be "good". Guy has zero concept of progressive pressure for braking even after a month. Most people naturally figure out with minimal time that (BIG BIG brake grab bad make me almost fall down. Less brake good me come to stop don't feel like fall down)
I have recently been accepted into the training program for motorcycle safety instructors in my state. I hope by this time next year I'll be a qualified instructor and have taught a few classes. Your channel is especially valuable for me, even though I've been riding motorcycles for 25 years I have still learned new things from you. Thank you! Looking forward to more videos.
I just cannot understand how he did not intervene with all those 'goosebumps'. Bikes are not really the type of devices that you can expect to get better without proper training, at least awareness. The problems are just too large and urgent to ignore in this video. Not being able to stop is not a small thing like a minor body position problem.
Yeah if my friend showed up and messed up his braking like he did in a parking lot I'd refuse to let him continue until he can actually stop his bike safely. Even more so if he's still doing it after a week, let alone a month and 2000 miles in. He just kept riding the same way he started and seemingly didn't learn anything except how to dance while sitting on a bike
While a lot of people think that when a person is good at something, they'd be good at teaching it... but that's not really the case. Sometimes people have a natural ability to pick up something but can't explain it well. Sometimes people just don't have the capacity to teach for various reasons. This is especially true if you're trying to teach a friend, but you're very passive or soft with them... which seems like the case here at the very least. When I was teaching my kid to drive, he got annoyed and angry at me sometimes because I told him things he didn't want to hear because of his pride/ego, but I wasn't going to let him do something on the road that would get him or someone else injured/killed; the guy in this video obviously doesn't take it seriously enough... and they paid for it.
You can train yourself if you have the roght attitude. You don't needcto be able to do fulllock circles do stoppies and wheelies to get through decades of accident free riding btw. Most folk doing all the parkilit stuff come off and damage bikes more than folk driving carefully around as transport.
@virupakshawalla5734 yes you DO need to do full lock circles. As for training yourself, look up the Dunning Krueger (edit) effect: you can't see what you dont see from where you stand. You simply can't judge yourself (or your flaws) accurately.
Finally im better than some one, i crashed in 3 months. But I was on a racing track, training to do good cornering with my bike and i've got on 8th lap target fixated, got on a grass without ABS tried barely use front brakes and fled off. In the end got a nice video and need to repair plastic parts and mirror.
That's why God invented race tracks. You got a bag of plastic parts, a video, a lesson and a story to tell. On the road, the souvenir shop has a few more things to choose from and you don't want any of them.
If your muscle memory can't handle changing gears, throttling and braking just stay off the road first. Riding a bike is supposed to be relaxing since a moving bike pretty much rides itself.
This illustrates why instructors always follow and not lead. It the same for downhill skiing, on a dangerous steep slope you want the less talented skier below you so if he falls you don’t get taken out as well.
I took the state (Ohio) provided Basic Riders Course…..it was a great course and provided all of the basics. It was on a closed course however. I picked up my new motorcycle 2 days after the course ended. No doubt about it, riding home on back roads was nerve wracking. Shifting, braking, taking corners, really take some planning and care. I always ride with full protective gear (helmet, proper boots, armored jacket, gloves, and definitely durable PANTS). I have just under 1000 miles, mostly back roads, one gravel road and some 2 lane highways. I got the permit, took the course and got my license but gaining experience for every scenario takes time and cannot be gained by watching videos.
Your moto content is my favorite on this platform. Your views on responsibility with a cheeky sense of humor align well with my own and I feel like I've learned a lot in a short time. I've been spending a lot of time in the parking lot with my Honda Monkey working on friction zone control and have just recently started taking to the streets. Just wanted to say thanks from Chicago!
I’ve had my 1st motorcycle for 3 months and I’ve put about 1000 miles on it, 300 out of which where in a parking lot practicing slow speed maneuvers , turns, and stopping. I still catch myself doing mistakes.
I just took the motorcycle endorsement test in Montana. The very first test on the course was to stop with your front wheel in that small painted box. This guy could not get his license in Montana until he had a lot more practice.
Thanks for your work on these videos. I've watched many of them before I bought my first motorcycle and I keep watching them when not riding my bike. Really lots of very valuable knowledge. And since I'm a Slav as well, your accent makes it easier for me to understand :)
This makes me recall how scared and inept I was attempting to ride for the first time. It's easy to get confused by all the things you have to do. I had forgotten all that now that I have become a daily rider and don't m think twice of jumping on a bike and riding off. All comes with experience and practice. Everyone has his or her journey in achieving anything. Good luck going forward bud. If you love it, you will find a way to do it.
The scary thing is... 2000 miles and he didn't really "improve". Be confident, but don't be complacent. Get training, whether it be RUclips and in a parking lot or an actual course.
I have seen this video before, and could not believe what happened. As a new rider, I have taken 9 hours of advanced riding training that has helped me out a lot!!! I bought my new 2023 Honda Rebel 1100 DCT on July 20, 2024. I wear full gear all the time, and it does not matter how hot it is......I still wear all my gear! Ride safe everyone. Thank you for all your 🥇videos
Always appreciate your videos. I started riding a little later than most people. I found your channel while trying to learn the techniques needed to get better. Watching you can be almost demotivating because when you're starting out, watching someone with your skills is completely out of reach. It's like a kid picking up a guitar for the first time and trying to learn a Stevie Ray Vaughn solo, haha. That said, thanks for trying to make things approachable for the beginners. Stay safe.
I bought my first bike over a month ago, careful chose 125 manual to start with. Best choice, not fast easy to get experience and good to begginers mistakes. But I want to say that I still spend litres of fuel on parking lots. Practicing turns, stops, even quick acceleration. Always in protective gear, even if I go to shop around the corner, maybe I am over paranoid but it helped me a lot because even courses you get gives you only basics.
Brilliant video. I also taught myself how to ride (beside a short mandatory beginner course) and also had a few moments where I felt like I was punching above my belt (mostly high speed corners because I was struggling with countersteering). But I absolutely made sure to practice my low speeds exercises consistently and not do anything stupid before I had a good grasp of these basics. If this dude was still driving like this after 2000 miles, HE HAS NOT PRACTICED ANYTHING. Those moments were super sketch and you should be able to do those easily after a week of parking lot practice and 30-40 miles of riding.
A two hour training course should be able to get someone stopping and maneuvering at low speeds smoother and more confidently than that. It worked for me and I'd never even sat on a motorcycle before that. Maybe it's because my idea of motorcycling was set by watching tons of enduro, trials and Dakar but if I was still spazzing out at low speeds and completely failing to stop where I intend to stop after dozens of hours of riding, I would wonder if there was something wrong with me.
In Italy if you are over 24 yo with a B category open, you can apply for A3 full motorcycle license, get a "trainee permit" (valid for 12 months before an exam), buy any bike you want and ride on the roads without experience. There are no obligatory riding lessons, all is voluntary.
Could not have said it better myself. Those two will be hospitalized, disabled or dead if they don’t stop riding soon. Thank you for your outstanding expertise and advice.
Once again, nice video, love the pokerface irony in some of the stuff you say. Being a good rider doesn't always equal being a good teacher at riding. Safety first!
I’m new to riding a motorcycle 6 weeks in. Well my brother showed me some basics of riding at home but I didn’t take it to the street until I felt comfortable. I’ve practiced a lot on my time off and I was able to pick it up pretty quick. I still make some mistakes but at least I can actually brake reasonably safe and smooth and I pay attention to wats in front of me.
Sadly… he probably has a learner’s permit. We are insane here and getting that only requires a written test. At least with cars, the permit requires a licensed adult in the passenger seat (tho it’s still crazy that we let people “learn” on the road without basic training even in cars), but with a motorcycle, you take a written test and you can ride. Pretty stupid. (Most states encourage you to take the MSF course or some similar course, but most don’t require it).
I'm not that upset about the lack of gear in a parking lot. On the street, yea maybe invest in that. But my God, that's the most uncoordinated spaz I've ever seen on a bike. Some people maybe just shouldnt ride. 2000 miles in a month and still completely out of his depth even at 30mph.
How yhe hell did he do 2000 with crashing lol. Everyone rides without gear here. Folk thatvtour and have Miney gear up. Different usage of bikes here for most. I put a helmet boots and gloves on to go out for pleasure drive. I go for milk in flio flops. Helmet law not enforced here and much less than 5% wear them driving locally. No rukes on road and still most survive. But of course helmet and gear "sensible " but 5 on a bike you see. Kids asleep on petrol tank. Etc. When I was a kid in 60s my dad had a van with engine between seats. Flat at front no bonnet to speak of. I sat on a shiny satiny cushion for heat on the engine ready to slide off through windscreen 😂. I had careful responsible parents. Times change but not sorry I grew up then. Used to cram 8 or 9 in a mini 13 in small van as teenagers etc. Now theyvare all safely depressed at home 😢
At the beginning of my motorcycling journey, i was behind my uncle and i wasnt paying attention when some cars ahead were braking. I didnt crash, but my braking was much higher than it would have been if i paid enough attention. Made the same mistake twice, but it thankfully hasnt happened since. Its the kind of lesson you learn quickly, if your braking technique is up to the task and you don't crash out.... without gear... without training... on your tiktok...
It took me like 8 months before I had a minor low side in an apex of a corner I hit this divert where heavy busses had created a divert and it must have cause my rear suspension and traction control to freak out my rear suspension and wheel just sprung out very differently to any other time I've even remotely felt a loss of traction, I had little lean but my top box and underseat storage on the maxi scooter had a weeks shopping in it
Even in Japan, there are many videos of beginner riders engrossed in talking on their intercoms while riding. Riding without being able to concentrate on driving is very dangerous.
I am very surprised that terrance was given license. Like not able to stop bike is like missing the very basic need for motorcycling. Not sure without license how does it work in other countries.
@@Mespera3011 It was actually, but since I am newbie I did not realized that I am driving in 2nd gear, and forgot to engage clutch, engine stalled just as I was turning to park, fully protected but managed to land on unprotected spot 😆
I totaled my bike within a month. I looped it at a red light lol. However the damage was mostly cosmetic and easily fixed. After some surgery for injuries I am back on it, learning better throttle control lmao. If you drop or wreck your bike from inexperience, don't fret so much. Yes it sucks, but as long as you are alive, you are okay. Please don't be scared to get back in the saddle if it's something you really want to do.
In the USA and I just passed my MSF course. I got fairly comfortable on the small bikes we practiced with, but my motorcycle is a bit larger so I am continuing my parking lot drills and driving in my residential area until I feel comfortable with the bike and confident enough to safely drive in busier traffic. This video was terrifying to watch, so worried for those guys tbh
I am so glad in the Netherlands there are 3 exams. 1 theory exam and 2 practical exams. the first exam you have to do is the vehicle control exam. Basically you are not allowed to take lessons on public roads until you finish this. Basically things like clutch, breaking, special movements, slow speed control and fast speed control. Seems like a system like this could have prevented this situation.
It feels natural for me to ride in gear, I still don't do it when it's 35C+ outside and I ride around town. Of course the right thing to do is to get some summer gear but I haven't had a hard crash yet so I didn't.
Hello i'm french and i had to take at least a 20 hours lesson then exams before getting my licence (wich is limited to 48hp for 2 years before being allowed to ride bigger bikes), can some9ne clarify this for me : in the us you only need to have a car driver licence to ride any bike?
Good god. I am starting out in the world of motorcycles. I am coming from class 3 (30mph) e-bikes. I have thousands of miles on e-bikes and many thousands more on pedal bikes before that. I still took the safety course and am watching a metric ton of you and Motojitsu. That dude… I doubt he’s even ridden a pedal bike before given the way he puts his feet down into stops, and he’s out riding the thing in traffic without taking the training class or anything. He’s prolly on a permit rather than a license too (because even the lame ass tests we do here in the states require you to turn and maneuver without putting your foot down, and it’s pretty clear he wouldn’t have passed that). Just… wow.
whenever I've taught an absolute beginner to ride I always start off just pushing them round a parking lot (engine off) and getting them to brake over and over and over again. It's exhausting, but there's a method to my madness. I learnt the hard way at 12, when my brother stuck me on his mates trail bike, said this is the throttle, this is the brake, off you go. Twisted the throttle the wrong way, froze up, and ended up 15 feet into a gorse patch before I stalled out. Not fun!
In 1979 me and all my mates being 16years only rode Yamaha FS1Es [50cc Mopeds] on learner plates and provisional licences. [you had to be 17 to ride anything larger, if you passed your test on a moped you would need to take the test again to ride. a larger bike] So at the time if you were 17 or older and passed your full bike test, you could have a full bike licence and literally ride any bike available on the market. The kid up the road who had a FS1E just like us but he had a rich dad so was wealthy. He passed full bike licence test the day after his 17th birthday and the following day be bought a Kawasaki Z1000. [he went from riding a 50cc moped to a full chat 1000cc super bike in one day]
It also ‘looked like in the video’ that he was not engine breaking, it appeared he was holding his clutch in some time coasting a ways until the turn. He may or not have used his brake. Obviously, the 1 month old had a braking problem and lacked control and situational awareness. But, this is my opinion. I’m not an expert such as Andre’
I don't mean to body shame, I wasn't in that greater shape before I started riding, but the use of core muscles has certainly changed that for the better. but that Learner looks as though he spends a great deal of time sitting down, and not a great deal of time doing physical activities which would greatly improve his coordination for riding a Motorcycle, and many other activities that require fine control over specific muscles. One I can relate to well is the Kayak, after paddling kayaks as a kid, I didn't think much of it when many years later I tried it again and fount it unstable and wobbling rapidly... there were a lot of muscles I hadn't used for years, and they didn't know what to do anymore, which created the wiggling kayak... Maybe that learner could do a heap of practice on a scooter/moped first, learn some of the muscle control on something that is very light. I started on a scooter, but it was a cheap way of testing the water before I tried going for a Motorcycle license. and I swear It gave me a jump on where I should have been when I did get the licence. I'm well and truly ready for the next stage of licence, but Time is against me, and I have to wait, despite being 6 months ahead of an actual beginner! and this beginner could well be in the same boat if he also tested the water on a Moped! (and not have a destroyed bike) One thing that is hard to get used to is how hard the brakes can be applied. at low speeds the front grabs quite hard, and at higher speeds you're wondering how much you can apply before you take flight over the handlebars. and the first emergency stop I had to make... I opted to maintain steering ability and shoot for an escape route as well as braking... I wasn't going to just try to stop when there were other vehicles all around and behind me, especially when I hadn't tried to come to a complete stop in a hurry from that speed in a hurry before and didn't know exactly what sort of stopping distance I had! I had discovered that the comfortable stopping distance from 100km/h was about 4 meters longer than I expected, but that was only testing the comfortable stopping distance, not an emergency type stop from that speed. I'm still yet to find out what the ABS feels like on the front, on the rear I've felt it while doing downshifts at the same time as hard braking, & that tells me there is some dancing practice to do while doing both. but the single disc front, 19" ADV tyre and long travel suspension takes away much of the feel of the front tyre, so It does take longer to learn front braking on an ADV than a sport bike. hell, the little scooter I still have is easy to brake to the maximum without going over the top... because it has very little suspension, very little tyres and No electronics other than lights and electric start. the other is getting the timing right when you have 30 years of driving right hand drive Manual cars, and the rolls between the left limbs is reversed. I don't know how this works for left hand drive cars, as I find them awkward to drive anyway, and taking the dominant hand off the steering wheel to change gear seems like a very dangerous thing to do!
It's the same story as with pilots over there, they seem to give away licenses rather than them being earnt... although I did enjoy the great Laurel & Hardy clip!
First thing I recognized was, "Terence" didn´t even reach for the front brake before the crash. Please don´t anyone sell him another bike! His incompetence will kill him sooner, rather than later!
@@Mespera3011 First: Have you ever heard of trailbraking? How do you think, you do that? But that´s not the case here. "Terence" was still going in a straight line and never even extended his fingers towards the brake lever until he hit his "teacher". It´s obvious, he wasn´t paying attention at all. And given his problems with braking earlier, I think he only used the rear brakes at any time.
Andrei, you are by far the best and funniest motorcycle instructor on YT and probably in the World. The cretin “KORCLE” was turning the corner with his clutch fully disengaged. If he was changing gear, it’s a really stupid thing to do on a turn or bend. When he was “instructing” his rather large friend, he showed him to pull in the clutch with one finger! That’s a great idea…..not! However, as you said, his quest for monetisation, put his friend’s life and his own in danger. Had his friend been killed, he should have been arrested. The US and its profit over people never ever ceases to amaze me. We can see that all over the World with its questionable, financially motivated foreign policy. However, its financially motivated domestic policy focused on sales rather than safety is why instructors like you can keep making content ad infinitum. Keep up the good work and keep educating the US “motorcyclist”. (I use that term very loosely as the majority of US riders should perhaps stick to identifying as trans-pedestrians”.)
How the hell did this guy get his driver's licence? I'm aware that depending on the state you have either completely crap testing... and then it goes down from there. But this takes the biscuit. He doesn't even master the basic operations of the bike, like starting and stopping. Who the hell saw THAT and went, ok, here's your licence, son, good luck. I mean, I don't even have to see him ride, just the way he sits on the bike makes me go Uh-oh...
So, how does one learn what one does not know? It's kinda like the Dunning-Kruger effect: you can't judge where you are (what you know) because you are standing in the middle of your (own) reality. From what I know, I think I'm a decent rider.... (Then again, I'd say I'm also a student, for I know there is ALWAYS more to learn and get better at)
Isn't that why Terence sought out a more experienced rider, though? To learn what he didn't know? It's largely the instructor that is an issue here imo..( That and a total lack of a sense of self preservation on Terence's part..)
Wel, here in Argentina many people get their license AFTER getting a bike and they just practice by themselves and maybe with a friend's help, which is a terrible idea unless said friend is an instructor. On the other hand I got my license last year, after a good amount of basic training, which continued after getting it (using the instructor's bike) and I'm still saving money to get one eventually. Do you by any chance give courses here in Buenos Aires?
His biggest mistake is not taking this msf and he jumped the gun. When I started riding my Ninja 400. I was terrified. I rode in small neighborhoods. I didn't think once to ride on main roads. When I completed my msf. I gained a significant amount of experience and confidence. That's when I was able to take my 400 around town now. TAKE YOUR MSF
Hi from the Netherlands 🇳🇱. I love your channel❤. To us this is jaw dropping. There is no way you can buy a motorcycle and ride with it. The Dutch course is in two steps. First a bike control course and an official exam. Second your road course and exam. If you’re under 21, you are restricted to a bike under 35kW. If you want to step up the power after your 21? You have to take another test. If you have a motorcycle license in the Netherlands you worked for it. Keep you videos coming, keep teaching. Peace ✌🏻.
Hilarious and yet spot-on commentary. Odd that Terrence got his motorcycle license without having taken any courses nor having acquired, apparently, the most basic of riding skills. That's not possible in California or most of Europe, just to mention a few places, and I wonder how it works in Terrence's home state. Or maybe he does not have a license.
Yup. At least in my state you can get a 12 month learner's permit with just a written test that allows you to ride during daylight hours. There are no power restrictions on bikes like there are in Europe.
@@thefaboo here in Latvia you need to pass a written test, and after you pass test you are eligible to pass practice exam which includes 2 parts: maneuvers (snake, 8, emergency braking from 50 kmph, swerve, swerve and break, etc, even parking in a garage. During the exam an inspector is measuring your speed with device like cops do. If you pass all the manuevers you are allowed to pass a road exam. You are given a bike, and inspector is driving behind you on a car. They give you directions thru intercom on where to turn etc. exam includes all types of city commute with different speed limits, intersections, etc. So such guy like Terry will not be allowed to drive in the city 100%
@@PsyTecable definitely are better system 😬 Here the "good" way is taking a class that includes a day of "theory" then 2 days on a bike in a parking lot that ends in a test on a course. Which isn't bad, but even then you're not required to go actual road speeds or handle traffic to get your license.
Given his driving, I'm actually impressed that he's managed to get through a whole month
@@Motovibes91 Probably he was daydreaming about something since he slammed into his bud..this dude should buy 1st good functioning motorbike like 20 years old since he was in danger to total it (giving his abilities at the moment)
Yeah what the actual hell lmao
All the MSF courses were booked for me too, in Georgia so I couldn't get some better supervised practice. So instead, alone I spent like 4 hours across a couple days practicing in my neighborhood before I touched the road, and even then I started practicing in a parking lot. Only thing I struggle with now is going, stopping and going in traffic but I think I've nailed down what habits I gotta fix. Wait a little before I roll forward, be less tight on the bars and let the bike do the work of staying straight lmao
A month and about 500 miles around town, on a 2006 ninja 250 with 34k on it and scratches and cracked fairings galore :) good first bike it runs and stops good.
And 2000 miles. How 1.he improved so little in 2000 mikes and 2.he made 2000 miles before crashing are mystery. He didn't have natural aptitude 😂
He learned how to brake by watching The Flintstones.
Brakes: Dual Vans.
lolzzz
Any idiot can go fast. It takes a good rider to stop on cue.
damn, peter griffin got a bike and it went exactly as expected..
lol perfect!
*grabs knee:
Ahhhh

It baffles me that someone can just take a motorcycle out on the road with zero training.

He's fundamentally immature.
He needs to grow up a bit and take things a bit more seriously.
"Two times better motoJitsu and 7 times..." This sarcasm has killed me 😂😂😂😂
yeah that was good hahah
I'm also a learner driver and doing a lot of road driving, but this video made me decide that I'm going to a back to the parking lot tomorrow to practice the basics. You are absolutely right - no amount of miles can compare to a few hours practising the slow manoeuvres
Above all do not forget emergency braking and swerving (and emergency braking followed by a sharp swerve). Slow speed skills are good for not dropping the bike and being able to handle the motorcycle at slow speeds, but the two I mentioned can potentially save your life.
On behalf of everyone else on the road, thank you.
Get one thing wrong at 60mph and you might not be able to make any choice ever again, so good on you mate. Concentration, awareness, skill, mentality. watch this guy and the fireman dude (forgot bis RUclips handle?), they'll steer you in the right direction. Most other RUclips bike vids will just teach you how to be a knob. More than any other vehicle, technique, proper technique, will keep you alive on a bike. Also, cars just don't see bikes, they are not aware and are not looking for you, so YOU need to ride for the cars as well. Absolutely book yourself into an advance riders course also. God bless, stay safe. From Australia
When I did this practice a year after my license, I was unable to do the U turn half the time and my figure 8 wasn't great either. Just an hour later and I remembered how they work.
I learned to ride a bike 41 years ago. I've been licensed for the past 25 years. I still go to the local car park to practice. All you have to worry about in a carpark is your riding, and nothing else. I actually really enjoy it.
Always give a lot of extra space to any rider who has horns or fuzzy animal heads on this helmet.
It's great when people post stuff like this. Lets us all learn from the safety of our house. Nice break down, thank you.
it worries me to se them ride without riding gears.... fuck me, i wear full protection even to do 1km to fill up the tank just to be safe....
@@LorenzoGiglio-ee6ku well we newbies suck in many ways 😆
Here in New Zealand we have a 3 tier system. Learner, restricted, then full. Each one other than full has time and various constraints limiting what you can and can't do at the particular stage you are on. We also have what is known as LAMS (Learner Approved Motorcycle Scheme) whereby you have a range of bikes that are approved for people to learn on. Depending on the power to weight ratio. For example you can ride a CBR 400R but not a CBR 400RR under it. A KLR650 is allowed even a Ducati Monster 659 is approved, but an NSR 250 or RGV 250 is not.
These restrictions can be alleviated somewhat by taking various defensive rider courses such as the ride forever one.
Happy and safe riding everyone
“Failure to stop” guy didn't even touch the brake
That the experienced dude not pushing the dude to do half an hour emergency braking training for a few days.........a "friend" nobody needs
Exactly. A dangerous moto-bro...
There is 0 reason to not take MSF in the US. I just don't get it.
That kid is going to get himself killed if he does not take some actual lessons, he should 100% not be on the road with that level of skill. I am also slightly surprised his friend did not get a back injury considering he got slammed in the lower back by the left handlebar of his friend.
@@neonsamurai1348 He should take him to some big open parking space fully dressed in protective gear (both of them) and exercise.
I cannot comprehend how bad he is at riding. Even after a month. My first ride on my Zündapp moped went a lot smoother than that. Not to brag or anything, but not knowing how to stop is a level of incompetence i can't comprehend.
@@rienkhoek4169 that's a moped
@@hueyfreeman7010 Yes, but all the controls are the same, so basically a small motorcycle.
@@hueyfreeman7010 It doesn't matter. That guy has a serious lack of coordination. I never rode that badly and I don't even pretend to be "good". Guy has zero concept of progressive pressure for braking even after a month. Most people naturally figure out with minimal time that (BIG BIG brake grab bad make me almost fall down. Less brake good me come to stop don't feel like fall down)
I have recently been accepted into the training program for motorcycle safety instructors in my state. I hope by this time next year I'll be a qualified instructor and have taught a few classes. Your channel is especially valuable for me, even though I've been riding motorcycles for 25 years I have still learned new things from you. Thank you! Looking forward to more videos.
I like the helmets with the built-in tinted visor that flips up and down inside the helmet ,can use it whenever you need it
The world outside the parking lot is full of bonus opportunities.
Dark glasses and tinted visors are a red flag.
I just cannot understand how he did not intervene with all those 'goosebumps'. Bikes are not really the type of devices that you can expect to get better without proper training, at least awareness. The problems are just too large and urgent to ignore in this video. Not being able to stop is not a small thing like a minor body position problem.
The teacher didn't understand either.
Yeah if my friend showed up and messed up his braking like he did in a parking lot I'd refuse to let him continue until he can actually stop his bike safely. Even more so if he's still doing it after a week, let alone a month and 2000 miles in. He just kept riding the same way he started and seemingly didn't learn anything except how to dance while sitting on a bike
While a lot of people think that when a person is good at something, they'd be good at teaching it... but that's not really the case. Sometimes people have a natural ability to pick up something but can't explain it well. Sometimes people just don't have the capacity to teach for various reasons. This is especially true if you're trying to teach a friend, but you're very passive or soft with them... which seems like the case here at the very least. When I was teaching my kid to drive, he got annoyed and angry at me sometimes because I told him things he didn't want to hear because of his pride/ego, but I wasn't going to let him do something on the road that would get him or someone else injured/killed; the guy in this video obviously doesn't take it seriously enough... and they paid for it.
You can train yourself if you have the roght attitude. You don't needcto be able to do fulllock circles do stoppies and wheelies to get through decades of accident free riding btw. Most folk doing all the parkilit stuff come off and damage bikes more than folk driving carefully around as transport.
@virupakshawalla5734 yes you DO need to do full lock circles. As for training yourself, look up the Dunning Krueger (edit) effect: you can't see what you dont see from where you stand. You simply can't judge yourself (or your flaws) accurately.
Yo I'm never riding infront someone that says " I suck at stopping!" Like what were you thinking? An why no gear? You had money to buy horns...
Finally im better than some one, i crashed in 3 months. But I was on a racing track, training to do good cornering with my bike and i've got on 8th lap target fixated, got on a grass without ABS tried barely use front brakes and fled off. In the end got a nice video and need to repair plastic parts and mirror.
Crashing on racetrack doesn't count. It's almost a given😁
That's why God invented race tracks. You got a bag of plastic parts, a video, a lesson and a story to tell. On the road, the souvenir shop has a few more things to choose from and you don't want any of them.
If you can't master the brakes, stay off the road.
@@SGTvolcan Even clutch mastery is equally important.
Wow, that was helpful.
@@robrob9050
lol everything is important
@@Mespera3011 What is the most important thing to you?
If your muscle memory can't handle changing gears, throttling and braking just stay off the road first. Riding a bike is supposed to be relaxing since a moving bike pretty much rides itself.
This illustrates why instructors always follow and not lead.
It the same for downhill skiing, on a dangerous steep slope you want the less talented skier below you so if he falls you don’t get taken out as well.
this youtube channel probarly saved my life many times without me knowing
Its all good the little helmet horns survived.
I took the state (Ohio) provided Basic Riders Course…..it was a great course and provided all of the basics. It was on a closed course however. I picked up my new motorcycle 2 days after the course ended. No doubt about it, riding home on back roads was nerve wracking. Shifting, braking, taking corners, really take some planning and care. I always ride with full protective gear (helmet, proper boots, armored jacket, gloves, and definitely durable PANTS). I have just under 1000 miles, mostly back roads, one gravel road and some 2 lane highways. I got the permit, took the course and got my license but gaining experience for every scenario takes time and cannot be gained by watching videos.
You will be learning and gaining experience every time you swing your leg over the seat until the last time you take of your helmet. Many safe miles.
Your moto content is my favorite on this platform. Your views on responsibility with a cheeky sense of humor align well with my own and I feel like I've learned a lot in a short time. I've been spending a lot of time in the parking lot with my Honda Monkey working on friction zone control and have just recently started taking to the streets. Just wanted to say thanks from Chicago!
I’ve had my 1st motorcycle for 3 months and I’ve put about 1000 miles on it, 300 out of which where in a parking lot practicing slow speed maneuvers , turns, and stopping. I still catch myself doing mistakes.
You spent 1.5 hours every day in a parking lot practicing for 3 months, in addition to riding an additional 20-30 minutes every day?
This channel is awesome 👌 🔥🔥
Great video. This is the best crash review I've seen.
I agree, it's not usual at all to find not only crash itself, but the whole story leading to it. We have to thank korcle for that!😁
I just took the motorcycle endorsement test in Montana. The very first test on the course was to stop with your front wheel in that small painted box. This guy could not get his license in Montana until he had a lot more practice.
Thanks for your work on these videos. I've watched many of them before I bought my first motorcycle and I keep watching them when not riding my bike. Really lots of very valuable knowledge. And since I'm a Slav as well, your accent makes it easier for me to understand :)
This makes me recall how scared and inept I was attempting to ride for the first time. It's easy to get confused by all the things you have to do. I had forgotten all that now that I have become a daily rider and don't m think twice of jumping on a bike and riding off. All comes with experience and practice. Everyone has his or her journey in achieving anything. Good luck going forward bud. If you love it, you will find a way to do it.
Given his friend's demonstrated inability to stop, why oh WHY would you ever let him be BEHIND YOU?
Man! I laughed when I saw the "cut in" with the biker in the rear window of that car..lol!
Thanks for the great messages and wisdom!❤
The scary thing is... 2000 miles and he didn't really "improve". Be confident, but don't be complacent. Get training, whether it be RUclips and in a parking lot or an actual course.
This is what i cannot wrap my head around. How can anyone suck that bad and do 2000 miles?
Infantile approach really sums them up !
I have seen this video before, and could not believe what happened. As a new rider, I have taken 9 hours of advanced riding training that has helped me out a lot!!! I bought my new 2023 Honda Rebel 1100 DCT on July 20, 2024. I wear full gear all the time, and it does not matter how hot it is......I still wear all my gear! Ride safe everyone.
Thank you for all your 🥇videos
You bought an 1100cc motorcycle as your first bike. Now that is mad lol. Yoube safer pottering in town on 125 naked 😂
Always appreciate your videos. I started riding a little later than most people. I found your channel while trying to learn the techniques needed to get better. Watching you can be almost demotivating because when you're starting out, watching someone with your skills is completely out of reach. It's like a kid picking up a guitar for the first time and trying to learn a Stevie Ray Vaughn solo, haha. That said, thanks for trying to make things approachable for the beginners. Stay safe.
I started riding on a plated xr250 dirtbike. it made switching over to a streetbike years later way easier.
Really appreciate the quality content you you put out, thanks, and keep up the good work!
I bought my first bike over a month ago, careful chose 125 manual to start with. Best choice, not fast easy to get experience and good to begginers mistakes. But I want to say that I still spend litres of fuel on parking lots. Practicing turns, stops, even quick acceleration. Always in protective gear, even if I go to shop around the corner, maybe I am over paranoid but it helped me a lot because even courses you get gives you only basics.
Brilliant video. I also taught myself how to ride (beside a short mandatory beginner course) and also had a few moments where I felt like I was punching above my belt (mostly high speed corners because I was struggling with countersteering). But I absolutely made sure to practice my low speeds exercises consistently and not do anything stupid before I had a good grasp of these basics. If this dude was still driving like this after 2000 miles, HE HAS NOT PRACTICED ANYTHING. Those moments were super sketch and you should be able to do those easily after a week of parking lot practice and 30-40 miles of riding.
A two hour training course should be able to get someone stopping and maneuvering at low speeds smoother and more confidently than that. It worked for me and I'd never even sat on a motorcycle before that. Maybe it's because my idea of motorcycling was set by watching tons of enduro, trials and Dakar but if I was still spazzing out at low speeds and completely failing to stop where I intend to stop after dozens of hours of riding, I would wonder if there was something wrong with me.
If he rides like that after 2000 miles, he should stay away from bikes
In Italy if you are over 24 yo with a B category open, you can apply for A3 full motorcycle license, get a "trainee permit" (valid for 12 months before an exam), buy any bike you want and ride on the roads without experience. There are no obligatory riding lessons, all is voluntary.
I guess the government needs houses for the refugees.
Could not have said it better myself. Those two will be hospitalized, disabled or dead if they don’t stop riding soon. Thank you for your outstanding expertise and advice.
Once again, nice video, love the pokerface irony in some of the stuff you say. Being a good rider doesn't always equal being a good teacher at riding. Safety first!
Another great video. Plenty to think about. Cheers mate😊
I’m new to riding a motorcycle 6 weeks in. Well my brother showed me some basics of riding at home but I didn’t take it to the street until I felt comfortable. I’ve practiced a lot on my time off and I was able to pick it up pretty quick. I still make some mistakes but at least I can actually brake reasonably safe and smooth and I pay attention to wats in front of me.
1:14 is this legal in the US? to be allowed to drive a vehicle, without a license nor any idea on how to operate the machine?
Sadly… he probably has a learner’s permit. We are insane here and getting that only requires a written test. At least with cars, the permit requires a licensed adult in the passenger seat (tho it’s still crazy that we let people “learn” on the road without basic training even in cars), but with a motorcycle, you take a written test and you can ride. Pretty stupid. (Most states encourage you to take the MSF course or some similar course, but most don’t require it).
@@jmcminn1076that's medieval
1:27 I lost it at this 🤣this is why I keep coming back.
😂me too
I'm not that upset about the lack of gear in a parking lot. On the street, yea maybe invest in that.
But my God, that's the most uncoordinated spaz I've ever seen on a bike. Some people maybe just shouldnt ride. 2000 miles in a month and still completely out of his depth even at 30mph.
How yhe hell did he do 2000 with crashing lol. Everyone rides without gear here. Folk thatvtour and have Miney gear up. Different usage of bikes here for most. I put a helmet boots and gloves on to go out for pleasure drive. I go for milk in flio flops. Helmet law not enforced here and much less than 5% wear them driving locally. No rukes on road and still most survive. But of course helmet and gear "sensible " but 5 on a bike you see. Kids asleep on petrol tank. Etc. When I was a kid in 60s my dad had a van with engine between seats. Flat at front no bonnet to speak of. I sat on a shiny satiny cushion for heat on the engine ready to slide off through windscreen 😂. I had careful responsible parents. Times change but not sorry I grew up then. Used to cram 8 or 9 in a mini 13 in small van as teenagers etc. Now theyvare all safely depressed at home 😢
Great video. You are the best online instructor. 👍
Great video, well done 💪🏼
Love your work, you make all of us better riders
At the beginning of my motorcycling journey, i was behind my uncle and i wasnt paying attention when some cars ahead were braking. I didnt crash, but my braking was much higher than it would have been if i paid enough attention.
Made the same mistake twice, but it thankfully hasnt happened since. Its the kind of lesson you learn quickly, if your braking technique is up to the task and you don't crash out.... without gear... without training... on your tiktok...
It took me like 8 months before I had a minor low side in an apex of a corner I hit this divert where heavy busses had created a divert and it must have cause my rear suspension and traction control to freak out my rear suspension and wheel just sprung out very differently to any other time I've even remotely felt a loss of traction, I had little lean but my top box and underseat storage on the maxi scooter had a weeks shopping in it
Perfect definition of a "doofus". Still not sure what to make of his "instructor" but he definitely deserved something for his negligence.
Trying to help his mate. He wasn't charghim 😂. Without him is he better 😏
Even in Japan, there are many videos of beginner riders engrossed in talking on their intercoms while riding.
Riding without being able to concentrate on driving is very dangerous.
I am very surprised that terrance was given license. Like not able to stop bike is like missing the very basic need for motorcycling.
Not sure without license how does it work in other countries.
I was "fully" protected but somehow rode uphill in 2nd gear, stalled and finally landed on my ribs, I can imagine what would be without protection..
busting your ribs is the worst
@@ponetastic Yeah man, still feel that part.
Why did u fell?
It was a steap climb ?
@@Mespera3011 It was actually, but since I am newbie I did not realized that I am driving in 2nd gear, and forgot to engage clutch, engine stalled just as I was turning to park, fully protected but managed to land on unprotected spot 😆
@@robrob9050 so sadly clutch mistake , not slope or gear
Very good narrative.🌞
My Andre is the greatest … he knows a Terrance when he sees one
I totaled my bike within a month. I looped it at a red light lol. However the damage was mostly cosmetic and easily fixed. After some surgery for injuries I am back on it, learning better throttle control lmao. If you drop or wreck your bike from inexperience, don't fret so much. Yes it sucks, but as long as you are alive, you are okay. Please don't be scared to get back in the saddle if it's something you really want to do.
In the USA and I just passed my MSF course. I got fairly comfortable on the small bikes we practiced with, but my motorcycle is a bit larger so I am continuing my parking lot drills and driving in my residential area until I feel comfortable with the bike and confident enough to safely drive in busier traffic. This video was terrifying to watch, so worried for those guys tbh
Simple solution, just leave it in the garage.
Don't even do circles in the garage, just in case.
Don't do circles? Pff, white-belt mentality of lesser peasants!
@@MotoControlEn pizda! You're right! I'm gonna go do circles in a wardrobe to make up for my previous failures!
I am so glad in the Netherlands there are 3 exams. 1 theory exam and 2 practical exams. the first exam you have to do is the vehicle control exam. Basically you are not allowed to take lessons on public roads until you finish this. Basically things like clutch, breaking, special movements, slow speed control and fast speed control. Seems like a system like this could have prevented this situation.
Idiots will be idiots, no matter how much training they get.
Really educational video, thank you for uploading
It feels natural for me to ride in gear, I still don't do it when it's 35C+ outside and I ride around town. Of course the right thing to do is to get some summer gear but I haven't had a hard crash yet so I didn't.
The teacher is bad as the student …. puberty hasn’t shown up yet
Really good video. Thank you.
Hello i'm french and i had to take at least a 20 hours lesson then exams before getting my licence (wich is limited to 48hp for 2 years before being allowed to ride bigger bikes), can some9ne clarify this for me : in the us you only need to have a car driver licence to ride any bike?
Hilarious that you can just get on a bike and ride in America… no mandatory rider training? no theory lessons? No road test? No handling tests?
Would like to see more of this!
Good god. I am starting out in the world of motorcycles. I am coming from class 3 (30mph) e-bikes. I have thousands of miles on e-bikes and many thousands more on pedal bikes before that. I still took the safety course and am watching a metric ton of you and Motojitsu. That dude… I doubt he’s even ridden a pedal bike before given the way he puts his feet down into stops, and he’s out riding the thing in traffic without taking the training class or anything. He’s prolly on a permit rather than a license too (because even the lame ass tests we do here in the states require you to turn and maneuver without putting your foot down, and it’s pretty clear he wouldn’t have passed that). Just… wow.
whenever I've taught an absolute beginner to ride I always start off just pushing them round a parking lot (engine off) and getting them to brake over and over and over again.
It's exhausting, but there's a method to my madness.
I learnt the hard way at 12, when my brother stuck me on his mates trail bike, said this is the throttle, this is the brake, off you go.
Twisted the throttle the wrong way, froze up, and ended up 15 feet into a gorse patch before I stalled out. Not fun!
I love this title lol Im a new rider. Started june 2024 with a zx-6r 2024. Already have 5000 kms on her , never crashed and I can wheelie :D

Thanks .......Agree with all words said re this video evaluation
In 1979 me and all my mates being 16years only rode Yamaha FS1Es [50cc Mopeds] on learner plates and provisional licences.
[you had to be 17 to ride anything larger, if you passed your test on a moped you would need to take the test again to ride. a larger bike]
So at the time if you were 17 or older and passed your full bike test, you could have a full bike licence and literally ride any bike available on the market.
The kid up the road who had a FS1E just like us but he had a rich dad so was wealthy.
He passed full bike licence test the day after his 17th birthday and the following day be bought a Kawasaki Z1000.
[he went from riding a 50cc moped to a full chat 1000cc super bike in one day]
So? I went from a 50cc moped to a Kawa 750 H2 two stroke when I got eighteen. Made riding a lot more interesting.
If I'm not wrong the guy so called teacher closed the mirrors. He could have seen the crash before happened
It also ‘looked like in the video’ that he was not engine breaking, it appeared he was holding his clutch in some time coasting a ways until the turn. He may or not have used his brake. Obviously, the 1 month old had a braking problem and lacked control and situational awareness. But, this is my opinion. I’m not an expert such as Andre’
@@yygffgg You're absolutely right. Also in a month progression he should have learned the breaking very effectively
@@yygffggnah, you can't have a braking problem without brakes...
haha the ironic correlation between RUclips subscribers and riding skills had me laughing
Obviously bro wasn't even nearly ready to leave the parking lot. Like, not even close.
Hello…which motorcycles you have ridden have the best front end feel? And not to much vibration if possible? Thank you.
I don't mean to body shame, I wasn't in that greater shape before I started riding, but the use of core muscles has certainly changed that for the better.
but that Learner looks as though he spends a great deal of time sitting down, and not a great deal of time doing physical activities which would greatly improve his coordination for riding a Motorcycle, and many other activities that require fine control over specific muscles. One I can relate to well is the Kayak, after paddling kayaks as a kid, I didn't think much of it when many years later I tried it again and fount it unstable and wobbling rapidly... there were a lot of muscles I hadn't used for years, and they didn't know what to do anymore, which created the wiggling kayak...
Maybe that learner could do a heap of practice on a scooter/moped first, learn some of the muscle control on something that is very light.
I started on a scooter, but it was a cheap way of testing the water before I tried going for a Motorcycle license. and I swear It gave me a jump on where I should have been when I did get the licence. I'm well and truly ready for the next stage of licence, but Time is against me, and I have to wait, despite being 6 months ahead of an actual beginner!
and this beginner could well be in the same boat if he also tested the water on a Moped! (and not have a destroyed bike)
One thing that is hard to get used to is how hard the brakes can be applied. at low speeds the front grabs quite hard, and at higher speeds you're wondering how much you can apply before you take flight over the handlebars. and the first emergency stop I had to make... I opted to maintain steering ability and shoot for an escape route as well as braking... I wasn't going to just try to stop when there were other vehicles all around and behind me, especially when I hadn't tried to come to a complete stop in a hurry from that speed in a hurry before and didn't know exactly what sort of stopping distance I had!
I had discovered that the comfortable stopping distance from 100km/h was about 4 meters longer than I expected, but that was only testing the comfortable stopping distance, not an emergency type stop from that speed.
I'm still yet to find out what the ABS feels like on the front, on the rear I've felt it while doing downshifts at the same time as hard braking, & that tells me there is some dancing practice to do while doing both. but the single disc front, 19" ADV tyre and long travel suspension takes away much of the feel of the front tyre, so It does take longer to learn front braking on an ADV than a sport bike.
hell, the little scooter I still have is easy to brake to the maximum without going over the top... because it has very little suspension, very little tyres and No electronics other than lights and electric start.
the other is getting the timing right when you have 30 years of driving right hand drive Manual cars, and the rolls between the left limbs is reversed. I don't know how this works for left hand drive cars, as I find them awkward to drive anyway, and taking the dominant hand off the steering wheel to change gear seems like a very dangerous thing to do!
why was the 'teacher' drifting into that stop, or corner, whatever it was, with his clutch pulled in?
Maybe the teacher is not as good as he thinks?
How in hell was that kid even allowed on the road? He won't see the age of 30, that's for sure!
Ha! First thing in I thought was “where is their gear??” 😂😂
It's the same story as with pilots over there, they seem to give away licenses rather than them being earnt...
although I did enjoy the great Laurel & Hardy clip!
First thing I recognized was, "Terence" didn´t even reach for the front brake before the crash. Please don´t anyone sell him another bike! His incompetence will kill him sooner, rather than later!
You dont touch front brake in corners!
Who thought u that?
@@Mespera3011 First: Have you ever heard of trailbraking? How do you think, you do that?
But that´s not the case here. "Terence" was still going in a straight line and never even extended his fingers towards the brake lever until he hit his "teacher".
It´s obvious, he wasn´t paying attention at all.
And given his problems with braking earlier, I think he only used the rear brakes at any time.
Andrei, you are by far the best and funniest motorcycle instructor on YT and probably in the World.
The cretin “KORCLE” was turning the corner with his clutch fully disengaged. If he was changing gear, it’s a really stupid thing to do on a turn or bend. When he was “instructing” his rather large friend, he showed him to pull in the clutch with one finger! That’s a great idea…..not! However, as you said, his quest for monetisation, put his friend’s life and his own in danger. Had his friend been killed, he should have been arrested.
The US and its profit over people never ever ceases to amaze me. We can see that all over the World with its questionable, financially motivated foreign policy. However, its financially motivated domestic policy focused on sales rather than safety is why instructors like you can keep making content ad infinitum. Keep up the good work and keep educating the US “motorcyclist”. (I use that term very loosely as the majority of US riders should perhaps stick to identifying as trans-pedestrians”.)
Checkov's Rifle. Amazing.
How the hell did this guy get his driver's licence? I'm aware that depending on the state you have either completely crap testing... and then it goes down from there. But this takes the biscuit. He doesn't even master the basic operations of the bike, like starting and stopping. Who the hell saw THAT and went, ok, here's your licence, son, good luck. I mean, I don't even have to see him ride, just the way he sits on the bike makes me go Uh-oh...
It’s also good to see “what not to do”s 😂
So, how does one learn what one does not know? It's kinda like the Dunning-Kruger effect: you can't judge where you are (what you know) because you are standing in the middle of your (own) reality. From what I know, I think I'm a decent rider.... (Then again, I'd say I'm also a student, for I know there is ALWAYS more to learn and get better at)
The point is to actively seek information. Once we see it - it becomes obvious we didn't know it before🙂
Isn't that why Terence sought out a more experienced rider, though? To learn what he didn't know? It's largely the instructor that is an issue here imo..( That and a total lack of a sense of self preservation on Terence's part..)
LETS ROLL THE WEEDO...OH YEAH
😂, thanks for sharing 😊👍
Wel, here in Argentina many people get their license AFTER getting a bike and they just practice by themselves and maybe with a friend's help, which is a terrible idea unless said friend is an instructor. On the other hand I got my license last year, after a good amount of basic training, which continued after getting it (using the instructor's bike) and I'm still saving money to get one eventually. Do you by any chance give courses here in Buenos Aires?
His biggest mistake is not taking this msf and he jumped the gun. When I started riding my Ninja 400. I was terrified. I rode in small neighborhoods. I didn't think once to ride on main roads. When I completed my msf. I gained a significant amount of experience and confidence. That's when I was able to take my 400 around town now. TAKE YOUR MSF
In Europe you are not aloud to ride the streets until u get your A class permit. All my training was inside a closed area.
Hi from the Netherlands 🇳🇱. I love your channel❤. To us this is jaw dropping. There is no way you can buy a motorcycle and ride with it. The Dutch course is in two steps. First a bike control course and an official exam. Second your road course and exam. If you’re under 21, you are restricted to a bike under 35kW. If you want to step up the power after your 21? You have to take another test. If you have a motorcycle license in the Netherlands you worked for it. Keep you videos coming, keep teaching. Peace ✌🏻.
Used to be very different (Oefenrijbewijs).
Hahaha Sensei... I thought you are telling him "Don't be afraid to use your brain (brakes)" 😂😂
Hilarious and yet spot-on commentary. Odd that Terrence got his motorcycle license without having taken any courses nor having acquired, apparently, the most basic of riding skills. That's not possible in California or most of Europe, just to mention a few places, and I wonder how it works in Terrence's home state. Or maybe he does not have a license.
I wonder if this is legal in the US to drive bike without passing an exam on A category?
Yup. At least in my state you can get a 12 month learner's permit with just a written test that allows you to ride during daylight hours. There are no power restrictions on bikes like there are in Europe.
@@thefaboo here in Latvia you need to pass a written test, and after you pass test you are eligible to pass practice exam which includes 2 parts: maneuvers (snake, 8, emergency braking from 50 kmph, swerve, swerve and break, etc, even parking in a garage. During the exam an inspector is measuring your speed with device like cops do. If you pass all the manuevers you are allowed to pass a road exam. You are given a bike, and inspector is driving behind you on a car. They give you directions thru intercom on where to turn etc. exam includes all types of city commute with different speed limits, intersections, etc.
So such guy like Terry will not be allowed to drive in the city 100%
@@PsyTecable definitely are better system 😬
Here the "good" way is taking a class that includes a day of "theory" then 2 days on a bike in a parking lot that ends in a test on a course. Which isn't bad, but even then you're not required to go actual road speeds or handle traffic to get your license.
