As an AK rider myself…..At 4 minutes why did you drop from 64 mph to 41 mph on the freeway? Also as a Commercial driver, I see a TON of dangerous places in this video. Be safe man. Learn to STAY away from large commercial trucks, stay out of the right lane until ready to exit, do NOT slow your speed while on the freeway to let people slower than you merge. Move over to the left when available, to prevent slowing down traffic behind you. Do NOT let other drivers “drive” your vehicle. Know the rules and laws and be safe. In a mere 40 seconds of this video, as a commercial driver AND an AK 550 rider, I saw sooooo many issues that could have gone bad. The worst one was STAY OUT of the right lane! Way too much going on in that region of the freeway. STAY away from anyone who is just “hanging” out in their lane. STAY away from commercial vehicles…They need their own space. Lastly my take away on this is……Be seen. Do NOT blend in. Get on the freeway…..Ride and get off. Don’t mingle with the crowd. I know you said you were about to exit but it was your set up for that exit that bothered me. Get on, ride and then get off. Complacency can kill you.

Hey Peter!!!!! Missed you brother. I do miss my AK more when watching your videos. The dash of the AK is awesome at night. Well, yes, I know it is always awesome hahahahahaha. Videos never do the AK justice on how great it sounds. My brother used to drool everytime I started mine. Woot!!!!! Q: Which Garmin model you rocking? My old Garmin Nuvi is giving me fits. Been trying to decide if I should just use my phone or invest in another GPS.

I wiped out twice in my MSF course, the only person to fall during the entire course 😂😂😂😂😂. Once on the first practice days, then made it all the way to the final eval and low sided. Each time I popped up wanting to get back on the saddle 😂. GL to all the failures out there, we don’t truly fail til we stop trying

Don’t over think it. Take your time, you are most likely causing yourself pressure. The first time I over thought everything and the next time I went with the attitude that I am just going to ride. The second time was a pass.

Did you pass? My first day was today and I was told to reschedule because the instructor thought that this just wasn't my weekend. I didn't fall or anything; my problem was not looking straight ahead and working the throttle. That, and I have a tendency to out my right hand over the front brake all the time. I felt disappointed when I was told to go home. I guess I'm just looking for some encouragement.

Totally legal what the SUV did. The lanes were still merging into one at this point. Large percentage of people will not want to get stuck behind a scooter no matter how fast the scooter can actually go. Stop focusing on what others are doing and focus on what you’re doing or not doing. Let them merge and get on with your day.
