Keep your motorcycle out of the ditch with these emergency stopping tips!

This week we help a beginner motorcycle rider learn how to control their motorcycle during emergency stops. There are a lot of videos that deal with how to ride a motorcycle for beginners, this video uses the MCrider Field Guide to help a new rider work on their emergency braking technique.

Squids enjoyed doing this video for you guys! He wanted to give a shout out to @IchibanMoto. Squids was rocking his Ichiban shirt for the video. He learned to wrench from Ichiban and learned to ride from MCrider. If you are not a member you need to join us on the forums...become a member here: www.MCrider.com/member

Kevin, Im not sure if you are familiar with the KZbin page "Ride The Bean" but they are a couple who decided to start traveling and living off their motorcycles. They were both recently involved in a bad accident. It was a tragic accident but I feel it was totally preventable. Can you do a video on lessons learned. They have a video of the accident on their page. I followed them when they started their journey and unfortunately I said to myself that they were not skilled enough riders for the things they were attempting. Thanks!

[@karlreinke]

Squids looks like Sammy Hagar's stunt double.

[@kickerpunter]

In the thumbnail, I thought it was Dee Snider.

[@robertahunter7960]

That was so cool! Thanks for the lesson and the laughs Kevin. Peace!

[@leanavanzyl9936]

I thoroughly enjoyed this video! Great laugh for a Friday. Brilliant! Hahaha... Was a little sad the '10 tips to never crash' got interrupted (maybe next video? lol). LOVED the example of how to use the field guide. Please continue this series for us Mr Morris!

[@MCrider]

Thanks!

[@normanclark3429]

OMG Kevin without his protective gear and a rock and roller to beat!!

[@MCrider]

Rock on Dude!

[@rocketrollsvlogs7625]

I loved this format!!!

[@johnnylightning1491]

Another good video Kevin. Keep the good stuff coming.

[@martinmar9456]

I can definitely see you had lots of fun with this one Kevin.. Awesome vid brother, always look forward to them.. Rock and Roll! 🤘

[@MCrider]

Rock on!

[@richardparkersmith4810]

Hysterical! Loved the 'so I was going to lay it down like you're supposed to!'

[@MCrider]

😁

[@maxwellmark]

Great way to start my Friday....much needed chuckle after last night. Thanks Kevin 👍🏼

[@MCrider]

Glad you enjoyed it

[@timothydardar4909]

Great video I always enjoy the videos you post

[@AmerSheikh]

Excellent job Kevin...Had a great morning starting with your video!

[@MCrider]

Glad you enjoyed it

[@rzoom376]

Hey Kevin! Thank you for the vids. Learned alot from you and it helped me pass my test last week! I'm in pa and here it's a course called total control brc. Had alot of fun and i will never forget what I learned

[@broderp]

I enjoyed this. Thanks!

[@MCrider]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@lindacorcoran1253]

Great way to start my morning!!!! I loved it, made me laugh, and gave a great demo on practice drills. Thanks for the great work that you do and Rock On!!!

Great video! Loved it!

[@MCrider]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@stevena3446]

...and thanks for showing off the new bike! Sweet!

[@OpossumPiper]

Kevin, I know some others have said this, but I really like this format. Squids needs all the help he can get. Hopefully, you'll keep coaching him ;-) But this was really nice video work to walk us through the process. I really liked the "virtual coaching" viewpoint.

[@johnburgess2084]

Fun approach!

[@TheFalcro1234]

Do this more! Super fun to watch and nice to see you in a more creative and fun format for the "boring" stuff. I live in the PNW and I plan to spend the winter here (when it is not raining) doing drills like this so I am ready for my long ride next season. Squids is my new hero! He can rock the notes and the parking lot drills. I am ready to follow his lead.

[@MCrider]

Awesome! Thank you!

[@NobodyWhatsoever]

Holy crap, this had to be fun to make!

[@groundhornbill]

I love your stuff "Squids" and I learn tons of new stuff from you every week. You're the best out there. But watching this video was like pulling teeth.

[@tonyj8947]

Cool video and well explained. Nobody can ever learn too much. What editing program/equipment do you use?

[@MCrider]

Thanks, it was edited in Final Cut Pro X. Canon DSLR in the shop and GoPro in the field....a lot of work went into this one. ;)

[@K9RickRet]

Great video! Kevin and his alter ego! 😂

[@ICKYARCHIE]

Getting creative! That was awesome. I can only assume how hard it is to come up with a topic every week. I got to hand it to you that was hilarious. When can we expect another Sammy guest appearances?

[@MCrider]

He may show up from time to time.

[@1xARM]

BEST. EPISODE. EVER

[@RevJay_Rides]

Great job!

[@MCrider]

Thanks!

[@bubs3510]

Hey Kevin great informative lesson as always but now you're really starting to show us your real Talent with the editing factor of your videos and super special effects very cool stuff mate!

Thank Adrian.

Killed it man. Super fun and educational video. I think Squids will need to make another cameo some day. ROCK ON 🤟

[@karenshoucairmcgray4902]

Was not expecting that! Too funny! 😂😂😂😂😂😂

[@HootmonHarry]

Love your videos, love what you teach.. I know you are trying to switch things up, and make things more entertaining, but this will not be anywhere near my favorites list..

I do like you program....greetings from South Africa.

Hi Gert! Greetings from Texas.

Serious Kevin of all your videos, and I've probably seen all of them, this was the only one I had difficulty concentrating on.

[@michaelc2644]

Fun with good info!

Hahaha, in the process of wathcing and I'm cracking up! Good stuff!

[@MCrider]

Glad you enjoyed!

[@nononsenseBennett]

Good one

[@MCrider]

Thanks

[@jamesbonanno3359]

I am getting old. Took me about three minutes and 30 seconds into the video to realize it was indeed Kevin. Well done indeed! That is a great way to present material. Where the viewer can actually see the mistakes and how you adjust to correct them and come up with a nice fluid technique. I swore it was a guest to visit from Sammy Hagar at first.

[@MCrider]

What do you mean? That was Squids not me...did you see the hair? ;)

[@SilverFox-fq7xi]

Is Squids any relation to Sammy Hagar? 😂 I really enjoyed this one Kevin, points out the techniques very well! 👍

[@MCrider]

Thx

[@colinmorgan6733]

Ha, excellent 👍

[@SMKreitzer1968]

Squid looks familiar!! Thanks for sharing a great technique! God bless and stay safe.

[@MCrider]

Thanks for watching!

[@fallen222.]

OMG that scream! LOL

[@wilcofaber9863]

Kevin, it really looked like a twin brother ha ha ha. But I think the video was very effective with this twist. Thanks again for the fun and also the usefull information.

[@MCrider]

Glad you enjoyed it

Good Morning Kevin. Stay safe Sir

Thanks 👍

[@ReyHubbard]

Brother do I know someone who. Funny stuff but on the serious side instructional, educational and proof even us white hair long time riders can learn something new. Looking forward to more of the adventures of "Squids". Great work

Great video Kevin. Your twin bro has too much hair, I'm jealous. That must have taken you hours to produce. I really enjoyed it, thanks.

[@MCrider]

Yeah, this one took a while to make. Thanks for watching.

[@ralphwaters8905]

I always thought fake tattoo arm sleeves would be a hoot, but these days I always wear an armored mesh jacket. I may still get a pair for kicks at the dentist office when I take the jacket off...

[@chuckthebull]

Squids reminds me of a cross between D Snyder and Michael Teutul from OC choppers. very funny character,,fun video..

[@normanclark3429]

Good Morning Kevin!!

[@MCrider]

Morning!

Stitches was our hit single.

Thanks Desmond! I am not sure I can afford Squids, he wants a new contract. ;)

[@daveco1270]

I'm sure Squids hates to cover those golden locks with a helmet, but you gotta be safe.

[@TennRides]

Haha, very entertaining.
