You're easily one of the most inspiring motorcycle channels on the platform, Doodle. There are heaps of excellent teachers out there, and you've featured all my favourites on your channel so far. There's also heaps of squids doing crazy stuff, which is...its own thing. But a small human constantly pushing her boundaries, always upskilling, and so brilliantly articulating her learnings to the world? It's so much more real and so incredibly encouraging to us newbies. I'm even shorter than you and barely started, so suffice it to say, your constant upskilling and adventuring is enormously inspiring. Also, your editing is 11/10 these days, the Madacascar quote killed me dead.

Riders who start out older or pick up motorcycling again after a long break tend to be safer. Usually. Just don't get a big Gixxer for your first bike. All those years of driving safely have taught me to ride more cautiously. Drivers have much less situational awareness than riders and they tend to be easily distracted too.

Your drive to constantly increase your skill is absolutely amazing. I have tried explaining to many many people over the years how a person with proper training on a 600cc could outrun most on a 1000+cc bike and many have thought I was crazy. Too many get a bike and just the ability to ride is enough to them but the drive to constantly increase your skills comes in handy in many many ways while out riding and will always make a "dangerous" activity that much safer.

As a person who will be returning to riding a motorcycle again after 27 years these videos are really helping. Back in 1978 when I got my license there were no lessons on vehicle control (I'm in the Netherlands btw). However nowadays you have to be able to master 12 exercises (7 will be chosen to perform) . So before entering and buying the wonderful world of motorcycles again I'll make sure to take some extra lessons on mastering these exercises. I also like the fact that you not only show the things that go well but also show what could go wrong. Sometimes you see these vids that show flawless performances which gives the impression it's all easy to do. Which in fact it is not. All I need to do now is to make up my mind about a type and brand of bike 😁 So far my choises are a Royal Enfield Interceptor 650 , Triumph Speed Twin or the Triumph Bonneville T100 🤔 I'm trying to make up my mind about which bike to get for over 2 months now 😱😅 Have a great day Mrs D and be careful 🏍🙌👍

Hi Doodle! I have a 1985 Honda Goldwing that is my baby; I have had it for 8 years. Since the day I bought it, I have practiced low-riding techniques at the train station near my house where they have empty parking lots on Saturdays and Sundays. I've never missed one day of practice except while I recuperated from my heart attack 3-4 years ago and then a stroke 2 years ago. The training continued but for a long time, I was limited to basic things after such health disasters. Between the Goldwing and the Honda PC-800 I had before, I have about 250 hours of training. BUT TODAY I LEARNED A LESSON! Your friend is showing you how to move your butt to counterbalance, and my god I never thought of doing it like he is doing it! Now I know that was my last huddle to overcome all these years, as the minute I moved my butt I because unstable. But now I'm confident that I will be able to do it and do it successfully! Tomorrow Saturday 09/30/2023 is my first training day of this week, so I will try that. Also, tomorrow after that new way is done, I will begin my 100 U-turns and try to keep this page posted. Thanks for all your videos, I've seen them all and they are great! By the way, I just got back from the grocery store on my bike and the wind was incredible. So today it is parked in my garage and I'm going to sit on it and practice moving my butt automatically when I begin the turn.

Today 09/30/2023 I went to my daily training in my Goldwing and the first thing I did was learn to move my butt to the right position and the correct way to do it as indicated in this video. I can tell you that although it may be some weeks before I can perfect it, today was the first time I felt as close to a lock-to-lock turn as ever. So tomorrow is another day of training and we will see what happens.

Great videos. Been watching for a little while. Just a heads up with the tight U turns. Them “big” police bikes have shorter wheel base than the civilian version. Thats why your instructor makes the course over 20’, vs 18” like the police course. I drove my self nuts for decades. Feeling I could never be that good because I couldn’t get my FJR to do that course nearly as good as I thought it should. A buddy of mine recently got a police frame Harley. I drove that and it felt like a bicycle between my legs. Way different feel from the fjr or like your tourer. Point is, you’re doing great. You are probably way better than you think you are. Considering the size bike you are riding. If you get the chance to ride a short wheelbase Harley, try it! It’ll blow your mind.

A couple things that I think that you already know. 1) Speed up if you feel yourself falling in. The natural response is to slow down. 2) Slow down if you are going wide. 3) The amount that the handle bars can turn before hitting the stop has an effect on how easy it is to make a tight U-turn. Electricta Glides are notorious for how much their handle bars turn. They turn farther than Sportster handle bars. They turn much farther than sport bike handle bars. The point is that it is hard to tell which motorcycle are easy or difficult to make U-turns with. 4) A quick little counter steer to start a U-turn is sometimes helpful. It gets the motorcycle leaning over quickly. I believe that J.P. calls it the dip. 5) Try straightening the inside arm to force the shoulder outward to a counter-weighting position. Some things to do for the fun of it. 1) Try doing coasting U-turns. 2) Try doing U-turns with other variations in technique. (Example, not doing a proper head turn or maybe with a passenger.) 3) Walk your motorcycle upright through a U-turn. Note the diameter. By adding lean angle and counter weighting it is possible to get a smaller diameter circle than this. How close are you getting to this? (I have only been able to beat the upright circle on a Kawasaki Concourse. That was about 28 feet upright versus about 20 feet while riding. There was a lot of drops that happened practicing U-turns on that motorcycle.) 4) With your mini bike or some other small light motorcycle try walking it through a U-turn both upright and leaned over as much as you can handle. Note the difference in the turning circle. 5) Try doing the rectangle with two motorcycle in it at the same time. It is fun and not as difficult as it looks. The trick is following close enough so both motorcycles are on the same end of the rectangle. 6) Adding a third motorcycle in the rectangle gets really hard. I have never successfully done that for more than one lap. 7) When leading a ride group, in a safe location, pull an on street U-turn. Then carefully watch the rest of the group in your mirror. You need to watch that everyone is safely negotiating the U-turn. (And for amusement.) (This is best done with viewers that comment that, "you need to get a smaller motorcycle." 😊)

To anyone saying "you should be able to do this after getting licence", no. You should be able to prove you can kinda do it but not consistently and not well enough. In Czech Republic we have fairly strict tests and so we learn for the tests. The tests however are all at low speed so things like countersteering are not really taught (closes you get to is fast slalom and obstacle avoidance maneuvre, all of which are taught to be done by just leans, if you countersteer like I did you get fail for not leaning enough). Counterbalance is also a curse word for inspectors, they want you to motogp lean. The early things like a u-turn, slow slalom, stop-n-go or fig8s are playing second fiddle to the real meat of our tests (they can still get you DQF - touch a ground three times when not supposed to and you are gone) - precision braking, emergency braking, obstacle avoidance and fast slalom. Tho out of four, they want you to move your butt in the seat. I can do those in neutral but no, I have to act like a Rossi fanboy while going 50kmph. I can do it more precise and faster by countersteering and counterleaning but no, lean with the bike and don't really touch the handlebards that much. A student leaving that course barely knows how to ride. He or she will know how to use clutch, break, maybe a throttle.. Bare minimums of steering by leaning. But nothing about weight shifting. Even the emergency and precise braking are taught as "all's in the lever" way. It's not. Oh and don't touch the rear brake, no intermittent combined braking. Can't have you knowing that. So driver's licence course is just your price of admission. Nobody gets worse by training. I do about 40-50 fig8s (what I really struggled with) each day the weather is nice, in the evening when the shops are closed. Then have a smoke and then do some other things like a slalom or two. A nice peaceful way to end the day but also over time I slowly notice that 8s are tighter and footpegs on my Meteor 350 get scraped sometimes. And to think that not that long ago I failed for going wide on fig8.

really nice to see riders taking it seriously honing their skills, this stuff WILL come into play if you ride long enough and it could prevent an off or worse..., riders should be constantly improving their skills growing eyes in the sides and back of your head, the works!!! and frankly BALANCE is such a huge part of riding, hand eye, and reaction, calculating closure and estimating time vs distances .. ride in time not space, how long do I have till I hit that car, practice with friends in large parking lots, setup, situations like pull outs, use a flag on a whip stick, push the flag out in the lane of the riders at various distances, let the rider develop a feel for, OK i have time to stop, or time to slow and swerve, or no time for either its a hard maneuver only situation and frankly all this is decided by a riders individual skills.. some riders can steer on the front tire, and that CAN avoid a serious collision! don't think it cannot cuz it can, the higher your skills the more you can do, you can brake hard and make evasive maneuvers at the same time.. bottom line is you need serious skills to avoid serious situations and pitt falls, never stop honing skills, and start working on hihg speed stuff, braking, maneuvers, calculating, so on so forth .. n one ever said, meh, not riding in this traffic I have way too much skill for this style of riding..

Ifn ur ever lost for ideas, you doing this with a Tiger 1200GT would be interesting. Compare living With Mid-weight vs Heavy-weight ADV bikes. I don't thnk I've seen this on youtube yet. Does the extra 100lbs on a heavy weight really make a difference on the highways or parking lots or back roads? Love your content as always!

Like Robert Simmons says, if you're feeling like you're going to drop your motorcycle, open the clutch (engage it a little more) to get more power to the rear wheel. This will pick the bike right up. Of course, you need to keep your engine RPM up enough that this won't cause the engine to stall (but I don't think that you have any problem there!). A foot stab to the ground is probably not your first go-to to get the bike to stand up - just too dangerous and the clutch works so much better for this.

Hi, I have seen your videos, and they are cool. If there is another video upload of you doing u-turns, I wish you good luck and posiitve vibes. Also, on your Arai cosair helmet, I think, is the smaller visor on top just act as a glare shield?

Hi Doodle, I have a problem with doing a steep right turn upslope on a broken pavement on a busy road on my big bike. I alway can't control my friction zone effectively and the bike would roll backwards sideways dangerously. Can you try doing that in one of your next videos?
