Practice Session #2 - Two CVO's - Advanced Slow Speed Motorcycle Riding Skills

[@ckrehl]

I really like how you instruct, how you speak to us and how gracious you are with your students while still giving them clear and concise directing and feedback. You're also really good and fluid with the camera and camera instruction and riding simulation. Thanks for really good information.

[@BeTheBossOfYourMotorcycle]

Eric rolled in there looking like the Devil Cat biker...but he listened and benefitted from what you had to teach him. It was obvious he had been riding a while, but he still came out. RIGHT ON ERIC AND ROBERT!!!!!!

Thanks Deb!

[@charleshilliard9151]

I honestly thought that I was a good rider but after watching your videos and applying your techniques has allowed me to step up my game, love the videos and keep doing what you're doing.

[@BeTheBossOfYourMotorcycle]

Great to hear!

[@jddonaldsonjr2176]

Great training again Robert! One thing that might help some of your riders out is partially cover the rear brake to feather it instead of having their entire foot on the brake. I find the rear brake is easier to feather the less I cover especially during slow speed maneuvering. Another great exercise to incorporate would be a brake and escape exercise. Most riders probably aren't familiar with how their motors handle during emergency braking and that's definitely a tool that's needed operating a motor on the street. Keep up the good work brother!

[@BeTheBossOfYourMotorcycle]

Thanks man! Always appreciate the input.

[@jamieblankenship9594]

I've just found your channel and I love it! I've been riding 47 years and I've gone through several advanced courses but I love your instruction the best! I am a retired LEO and always wanted motors but my department refused to put a girl on a harley! So I bought my own! Keep up the great job!

Hi Robert, I’ve been taking in your videos, ramping up for my entrance into this community. I want to thank you for putting yourself on KZbin to allow cats like me to gain the confidence. We need to put 1 foot in front of the other. The date of this comment is 4/22/24. I’m getting my first helmet 4/25/24 and then about a week or two later I’ll be doing the CHP motorcycle training course out here on the West Coast. Again, thank you sir for not only your service out there in New York what you did for a living but also your continued service to the biker community to this day.

Thank you so much for taking the time to create content that you're passionate about and that can benefit the novice rider like me. I recently took and passed the MSF Basic Riders Course. Although I passed the evaluation and received my certificate and road test waiver, I struggled with the U-turn and figure 8 portion of the course. Had I watched your videos first, I believe that I could have used the techniques such as preload and using the rear break to master the parts of the course I'd struggled with. My next step is to take the written portion at the DMV and get the Motorcycle endorsement on my license. Then it'll be bike shopping time. Thanks again. And I'll continue watching your videos with anticipation of applying what I learn once I get a bike of my own.

[@scottquier929]

I have always (the last year or so) held Jerry as the "Gold Standard" of slow maneuvers with a motorcycle. You're teaching the EXACT same things, same techniques, etc but with an added bonus --- you seem to be more focused on what's going on between the ears rather than the results. For most riders, this is GOLD! Being in Va, sure wish you were closer. And, can't wait for you to get a wireless microphone - maybe for Christmas???? :) Anyway, I love what you're doing! Keep it up and I'll continue to watch your vids ALL THE WAY THROUGH!

[@BeTheBossOfYourMotorcycle]

Hey Scott! Thanks for watching and subscribing! Funny you should mention the wireless mic for Christmas because it's on my list. I would have purchased it already, but my wife gets annoyed when I buy thing for myself in December because she says I ruin the opportunity for others to get me gifts. So all I did was show her a message like yours, in the comments about me needing a wireless microphone and that was all it took. She gave me my wireless microphone today!😁👍🏾

I told him the other day how I’ve been riding dirty since I been riding and I’m gonna go legit soon (has a 13 year hiatus from riding due to financial reasons and this time around I wanted to really get this slow stuff down since my ride now is a 2010 fatboy not a 500lb Suzuki cruiser like I had all those years ago) I want to get my M endorsement so I can enroll in an advanced slow speed class. These vids are so amazing and have helped me greatly. I have so much respect for everyone who is training to get better. I see so many long time riders duck walking around the gas station even. Or when pulling up in traffic. At least I’m not that bad lol. I can u turn in 3 spots consistently but get nervous when on the street for some reason and sometimes forget the training .. TIME FOR MORE TRAINING FOR ME stay safe brother

[@FREE_PUREBLOOD333]

Great vid Sir. So many people dont know about that rear brake for help in control with the throttle and clutch at slow speed. Another great use of rear brake is, when coming to a stop in normal traffic conditions use front brake to slow bike and at the very last couple of feet apply rear brake gradually as you release front brake . Come to a stop with just the rear brake. This stops the bike nose diving at a stop .

[@BeTheBossOfYourMotorcycle]

Exactly!!! Get your ass over here and help me!😂

Hi Robert Im from the UK. I have just found these videos. They are great. We dont spend enough time doing the slow stuff so when we have to, it can catch us out. I have got into some bad habits and these videos have given me plenty to think about and practice. At the moment if i did your course I wold spend most of my time doing press ups due to too much front brake. Thats my starting point point useing more back brake at slow speeds. Thanks for your time , effort and input.

[@BeTheBossOfYourMotorcycle]

Thank you very much! It’s my pleasure. 😊

Nice demo Robert. Indeed catching yourself with that clutch/friction zone vs putting your foot down shows a high awareness level of the rider and their motorcycle. ALL riders should strive for that.

Hey what's up Robert I enjoy watching your slow riding videos, I've been watching ride like a pro videos for a couple of years now one thing I picked up in your video that I don't remember hearing in Jerry's video is to pulling the clutch in makes it easier to turn handle bars. I consider myself a 3 and do my maneuvers for the most part straight up

[@BeTheBossOfYourMotorcycle]

Hey Kev! Thanks for watching and subscribing! Yes pulling in the clutch makes turning easier because when the clutch is out, the motorcycle wants to go straight. We can bring that 3 to a 6 in no time. Just keep practicing and you have to lean that motorcycle. I'll be releasing Lesson #2 in a few days. If you haven't checked out lesson #1, take a look at it. They will all tie together.

Hey Mike! Funny you should say that because a guy had a Goldwing out there on the practice course today. I tried it for the first time ever.

Just found your slow speed videos, and really liking them. I have seen the Ride Like a Pro videos, as well as when you attended one of his classes. Two excellent riders being able to share their knowledge is awesome. So I took my Roadmaster out to the parking lot and made a few 18 foot U turns, the span of two parking stalls. Just worked on U turns. Been utilizing the friction zone even before I got this big bike. I just had a 1300 VTX and man I could lean that thing and turn it on the tip of a pin. But these are excellent skills to know, especially for those that ride the 900+ pound bikes! I'm always down for learning, and glad I can see it here, too!

Nice show, Robert, thank you for your time! Snow is about to fly here in southeast Wisconsin so I'm down to practicing mentally.

[@BeTheBossOfYourMotorcycle]

Thanks! Mental practice also has benefits!

Great work Robert, enjoying your videos and will definitely practice.

[@BeTheBossOfYourMotorcycle]

Thanks for watching and subscribing Daison! I’m happy to hear that you will be practicing!👍🏾

[@bikerworld2471]

Hey Robert, I just started watching your videos and I am enjoying them very much. I like it when you demonstrate the drills on your bike. The slow speed maneuvers are tremendous. Cheers.

[@BeTheBossOfYourMotorcycle]

Thanks and welcome!

[@charlittaayala2462]

Thank you so much for giving us these videos so that those of us interested in gaining more confidence in our riding skills have your videos for reference. Plan to get out this weekend to practice. Wish you were in the D.C area, but i do plan to share your channel with my like minded friends. Take care, be safe!

[@BeTheBossOfYourMotorcycle]

It’s my pleasure Charlotte. 😊

[@BeTheBossOfYourMotorcycle]

You're welcome Jim and thank you. Same to you & your family.

[@tonycortina4624]

Great advice. I’ll try that also. Turning with the handle bars. Slowing down more. I’m practicing

[@BeTheBossOfYourMotorcycle]

Thank you very much! Thank you for watching and hopefully you’re subscribed!👍🏾😊 I’m happy that my channel has been helpful to you! That makes all the time and effort that I put into this so worthwhile!

@@BeTheBossOfYourMotorcycle Yes I’m subscribed. And I’ve watched the basics because I haven’t rode since 1993. My heritage Softail Classic. Just purchased a FLHTK 2016. Placed cones in front of my house. Inside my development 14 feet apart. 6 cones 2nd day and I’m getting it. I will not take the bike out til my riding academy class is finished next month. Safety first. My U turns are improving. I’m in Las Vegas and it’s always riding season. I will keep you updated. Again, thanks! Former New Yorker here. And plenty of friends on the force in Midtown North back in the day. Be safe Sir. Thanks for protecting us. 👍

Love your videos. Wish I was in a state where I could ride all year. 6months on 6 months off sucks! Thanks for your videos

[@BeTheBossOfYourMotorcycle]

Thanks Swiss! Wow 6 months off?!

[@swiss9632]

@@BeTheBossOfYourMotorcycle Well, I try to start early March if it's 40°. And then I am done around November as long as it's 40°. So maybe 5 months off. Depends on temperature.

[@BeTheBossOfYourMotorcycle]

@@swiss9632 wow 5 months is still a long time.

[@RRHSKnightVision]

Great video Rob. I learn something new each time I watch one of your videos! I guess you can teach an old man some new things. :-)

[@BeTheBossOfYourMotorcycle]

Thanks James! Glad they have been helpful!

[@mzerk1021]

Hey Robert, another great video - I really enjoyed this one with you coaching Eric. He is an accomplished rider and was able to wxecute the things you were suggesting he do. So, good job Eric, as well! I'm just picking up my bike today - 3/11/21 - spring in Pennsylvania - was in for my 18k mile check-up, new tires and break pads! I am riding a BMW K1600GTL and look forward to getting out and replicating your courses! Great stuff - thanks for sharing your knowledge! Best regards,

[@BeTheBossOfYourMotorcycle]

Thank you very much! I''m glad you got your bike back... Now... Preload!!! And Keep It Loaded!!!! 👍🏾👍🏾😄😄

[@terencebigt3825]

Wow! I’m ready to go practice now and it’s 10:30 at night! 😀

[@BeTheBossOfYourMotorcycle]

😂 I feel you man!

[@nunyabiz42]

All great content. Enjoyed every video. Keep em coming

[@BeTheBossOfYourMotorcycle]

Much appreciated!

[@tonygeee8466]

My cones have arrived!! I’m all in. Another great video. The “right turn” comment, about being a bit tougher is interesting. I agree. Not sure why. Maybe because at a crossing it’s usually sharper and we use more concentration? Idk Thank you

[@BeTheBossOfYourMotorcycle]

Fantastic! I'm glad you got your cones. I think the right turns are tougher because your clutch hand is now further away from your body. I don't know....😄

[@kennethstanton9532]

Man Rob more good stuff really learning a lot. Keep it coming.
