Having trouble putting my Harley Road Glide on the stand
Josh T. Lol you got gypped if it didn’t come with a kick stand lmao
Just throw that where it belongs, in the trash
I'm so glad Keith Urban is branching out into the MX teachers role, keep it up Mate!
Bonus tip #2: Lift the bike from the opposite side of the bike shown in this video...that way...you can grab the front brake and lift towards the front without it rolling at all. Gives you more leverage..
Love the videos guys!
Guys, I love the how to video's. Although I started riding in my teens, I started track riding much later in life. I can't tell you how much I appreciate the how to's on all the basics. Cornering, brake tapping, seat bounce, jumping and the more advanced techniques like the whip and the scrub. Truly grateful guys! Thank you so much!
Thanks so much for the positive feedback! Comments like yours literally fuel us up to keep on putting new vids out there.
I’ve been binge watching all ur eps hopefully getting a bike soon
Man I have has one rough day, nothing was cheering me up either. I came across this video and saw mistake 5 and can totally relate😂😂. Thanks man, you turned my day around and I learned a few things. This is why I like this channel.
I’m definitely interested in a podcast. Just please no cussing. My kids would be listening along with me.
We’ve never cussed in a video and never would cuss in a podcast
Goid thing ur kids are are rideing when i do have a son, in the mear future i hooe he rides like a beast, bmx or dirtbikes. Hope ur kids have a blast in whatever they choose, goodluck!
😂
When you burn your hand on the pipe and sound like a dolphin😂😂 keep up the great how to videos👍🏼!
Thanks for watching!
lol I love watching these tip videos as for my presentation makes information so easy. Only thing I suggest is a motocross anatomy/vocabulary. Like make a video dedicated on classifying different obstacles on the track (dragon back, wall jump, different forms of whoops and so forth and so on) think it'd be good to help up and coming riders digest your videos a lot better.

Wow ! Impressive bonus tip
Are you wearing a sleep mask? Lol
I see it done wrong all the time and unfortunately you guys just made a video on how to do it wrong.
The CORRECT way to to it is stand on the left side of the bike. Reach across with your left hand and squeeze the front brake. Grab the left side of the rear fender area with your right hand . Shift the weight of the bike onto the front wheel and pivot forward. So easy, the bike is locked in place, will not roll anywhere and you have maximum lifting leverage as a result.
@The MX Factory, love all your video's man but got to call you guys out on this one.
MrFunnyMonkey I went straight to garage to try your technique and I definitely like it better. Thanks for the tip!
MX Factory you guys rock! Moving to Fort Hood area in December from Fort Carson Colorado and I’ll be taking my 13yr old son to your camps.
Keep doing what your doing
Can you make a video demonstrating your tips ?

Thank u so much for this! Just subscribed too! I just got a stand for my bike(crf230f) and I can’t even lift it! This will help me in the future! And how do u enter to win the yz125? I need to know because I want it!
I can’t wait for ur podscat
I really want a dirt bike ,we were gonna get 2 but my mom said they’re too dangerous :(. But I explained how even our sxs is dangerous and an atv also is. Any thing I can say to nudge her to letting me and my dad get an atv or dirt bike
well atv are more dangerous
Bonus tip, make sure it's in gear! My bike rolled and dented my buddies truck, but that was three trucks ago so he can suck it!
Podcast is a yes
Awesome tutorials, please make a video on how to properly mix fuel for a 2 stroke bike. I’m thinking of Getting to a yz250 2 stroke
Good idea, thanks for watching!
Hey I’m heading to the track today and was wondering if there is any tips for over taking 🤙🏻
Clutch _07 there isn’t much to learn if it’s just a public track the slow riders should be in the right and move over for you. If they don’t your best bet is to wait til a corner and just take the opposite of what they took.
pick a different faster line to pass them simples
Tyler, don’t be mistreating my bike too much 😆 (btw that burning hand HAHAHAHA)
What I do that helps is roll my bike up at an angle to the stand and line my front wheel up in front and center that way once I lift and pivot the bike it's already centered on the stand and I don't have to wiggle it around to get it centered
New riding vid!!
do you post shirts to Australia?
How did u get it up the tree?
Watch the video till the end.
I truly can’t believe you guys actually did a video on this…..wow.
Podcast? Yes.
Off topic question, my gf has 3 old Kawasaki. 1992 kx 60, 1991 kx80 and 86 kx 125. I live in sweden and it seems like its hard to get parts. Is there any shop in USA to import different parts from? We really like to restore them. And i want to thank u guys for the great videos, i dont have any mx school i can get help from so u have helped me much, have a great day // Kim
I love that model of Tundra. I miss my '06!
It’s for sale!
@@TheMxFactory I'm all the way in Pennsylvania haha, I wish I were closer!
could you potentially damage the link and frame or pipe and frame if the bike is positioned poorly? i feel like the last time i had my drz on the stand it was too far one way
A podcast would be awesome!
Can you do a how to backflip tutorial? And a how to nac nac?
If you need a tutorial you aren’t ready lol I won’t be doing that for 20 years
Pod cast please!
Pump jacks rule!
What about a video on how to properly set up your bike because I need help with that
Trying to figure out what I need. I have a dual sport that weighs over 400 pounds lol.
Podcast 👍
Bring on the podcast!
Howdy,
I know this is waaaaay late but, I have a question about this subject. I just got my new KTM 300 XC-W last week. I am building a stand with wheels to facilitate moving it around in the garage. The problem is: I am 6’5” and have a problem getting the bike onto my hip. I am deep knee bending like a mutha and after being Airborne in the Army and three ACL surgeries on my left knee while on active duty...it is nearly impossible to get back to full extension with the bike on my hip. Anyone have a remedy for this?
I find grabbing the bike from the swing arm the easiest not up near the seat
Me too. To short to grab uo high.
i personally lift the bike by the frame at the moment because my fender is so sun faded and flimsy it would just bend any suggestions?
Yz125😍
We want podcast !!!
It’s good to know my sons bike won’t fall on him anymore
How are there already 5 likes with no views
I tried to do this with my 2007 KLR. I think it's just too heavy.
If you are a fmx rider use the grabs
i would listen
Ayy Tyler where is the graphic video
I likE to go to the right side of the bike use the front brake and grab the rear rim and that’s pretty easy
Instructions unclear, left my dirtbike on top of my house
The easiest way is to place your front tire just in front of your stand on the left side of your stand. Turn your bar fully to the right. Lift your bike by the swing arm or fender with your left hand depending on your height while holding the right grip in full lock to the right and then walk forward and place your bike on the stand.
I still cant leverage it with my body lol im only 5’5 and super weak so i only move the bike horizontally for a second and a half before it crushes me with weight
That's why I use a stand with foot pedal:)
Now all I need is a bike stand ...and a dirt bike
I'll just get one of those easy lift and lower stands...
If its a #trials bike you have to do it from the swingarm area. On the #enduro models that are heavier when i need a stand to work on them i compress the suspension to give me a boost upwards.
Ahhh yes the infamous tree hiding joke
like 450
How in the F did that bike get into that tree?..please tell me that's NOT a Friday Fail..but if it is..I SOOOOO WANNA SEE VIDEO!!!
With my luck grabbing the fender I’ll lift it and rip the rear fender right off
How do you put a trials bike on a stand? There's no place to grab it in the back. Nothing solid to hold on to. Sure they only weigh 150 pounds but at 59 years old that feels like 300 pounds
i wish i had a dirt bike :(
a mate of mine whiskey throttled his bike up a bank into a tree once. not quite that high though
Recommend a good stand anyone?
next video has gotta be how to get a bike in and out of the tree
0:19 =)
I know how to put my bike on a stand but I watched it because y’all put a dirt bike in a tree 😂
Sooo much easier to just lift the front tyre and handlebar
i've been this completely wrong, I feel so dumb
Mistake #6 "you forgot your bike".
i must be nuts, i lift the swingarm
Grabbing a rear fender at 4-stroke KTM is a bitch😂😥 cuz there s a little gap beetwen exhaust and fender thats just big enough that you think you can put your hand beetwen it and than it burns you😄talking from my own experience
I’m Just mad that I have such a hard time getting my bike on a stand(5’5 140lb girl) and you got yours in a fucking tree
The strap idea wt the end is horrible because if it falls its gonna smash your truck..but thanks anyways lol I'll lean it on a tree or somethin
Swing arm guy. Say good bye to your back fender
don't know if it was intended but did anyone else hear put the stand on the bike
Can I win the bike
Why does your tailpipe look like it’s off of a pit bike?
WHADDAFAG !
How do you get a bike in a tree
Or just get a kick stand
Kickstands can get in the way when I’m deep ruts on a moto track though. They are certainly helpful, just not in all applications.
Or just have a yz250fx so you get a kickstand.
BlackEagle 077 my xcf 250 has one and it’s the best investment ever
Jeez people if you can't put your bike on the stand without watching this video then sell your bike
