Learning to ride on a Yamaha R7! | Learn to Ride a MOTORCYCLE Series - Ep 01

[@mcycleshawn]

I’ll watch even though I’ve been riding since 1999. You can never be too good or have enough info! I try to do this on my channel also. Ride on guys!

[@tjey379]

Same sentiment here, I have been riding since 2015 but you never know when a revelation you didn't know about will come forth, otherwise the revision does not hurt.

[@balkor2]

Been riding since the 70's and I totally Agree.

[@AnastasiaPavelka]

[@geekgazette]

Chase, I have ordered my first bike and I am stoked. I have watched this series three times and I appreciate you taking the time to make this series. I am about to start the motorcycle safety course so that is why I am waiting. Thanks again.

[@ciey3478]

I already save this series to my playlist even without owning a motorcycle, one day I guess.

[@kevinfromwork8694]

Saved in my playlist because I’m getting one once I get from overseas !

[@Mike-vn3mb]

That’s how I started. You will get there.

[@jeijei3255]

Same. Hoping to get one too.

[@T0NI_]

Yeah I'm saving up for getting my license and a bike right now, just watching these things in anticipation hehe

[@timinou6716]

Getting mine next spring!!! I'm so exited.

[@Ejai1]

The closed captions for this video are hilarious. He's talking about having insurance and it says "Together with the integrated hemorrhoids game"

[@Daniel-dj7fh]

Been riding for over 5 years now, excited for this series. Let's see if I can learn something new or refresh some old techniques.

[@jacobblaine3050]

I just turned 21 not long ago and have wanted to learn to ride for forever, currently workin twords saving up to get a bike. This is and always will be a godsend for me. I dont doubt ill be coming back to review these alot

[@josheastman1258]

I go through waves of wanting to learn to ride SOOO bad and then calming down about it eventually. Your videos are always what ignites that curiosity in me over and over again. I’m pretty sure this series will do that again

[@saltyphucker777]

Thanks for doing this series, guys! I've been wanting to learn to ride, so I really appreciate you guys doing this! Love the R7, btw. :)

[@Idividezero]

Before I took the MSF course, I thought I had a pretty good grasp on what it's like to ride. In the first minute of riding a motorcycle, that got completely thrown out the window. I'm going to watch this entire series, even though I have already been out on the road. There's bound to be at least something I can learn here.

[@kayshell66]

Thank you for taking so much time with each section. I’ve seen a lot of how to ride videos that were a 15 minute crash course and didn’t really go in depth. This is why you’re the best bro.

[@rayflores1859]

Found this channel recently while learning how to ride. This guy seems really legit and helps you out as a beginner rider!

[@TheActualSanti]

I’m only 14 years old but after I got on a 250cc I’ve never felt more alive to get one bike for my self later on

[@nathanbarker616]

Hey man, I'm sure you might not read this but want to say thanks for making this series. I was watching religiously parts 1 to 7 for two weeks leading up to my test. And I passed first time. I remembered nearly all the things you speak about in the videos. For everyone else reading I highly recommend this series of videos. Indispensable. Cheers :))

[@rlbgurl216]

This is great, I feel like the people I want to learn from don’t teach and the people who shouldn’t teach are sending out tons of videos. Very cool that your doing this , especially on a sport bike.

[@tonyhamilton7785]

I'm a new motorcyclist and plan to start on a 1000cc

[@DaMeatSack]

you should start on a H2

[@tonyhamilton7785]

@@DaMeatSack Neh, I'm going for the H2R 😂

[@m1a1abrams3]

its too slow for the highway. i started on the dodge tomahawk with 500hp and barely feel like its even moving

[@karcynfountain141]

I'm interested in knowing how that goes lmao

[@CaffeineFreak13]

1000cc cruiser? Lol....

[@NeoxUnderxGOD]

Bro I want to thank you and progressive for this series. This is the bike I have been visualizing myself on since I saw it a few weeks ago. This works perfectly. it will be my first bike, so I will be learning with it. All things really do work together for good 🙏🏾 can’t wait to tune in brother 💪🏾

[@hamzafiroud]

Same here bro. It was like love from first sight and i just knew THIS is the bike for me.. Good luck and much of joy with your future R7 😉

[@chrisi7127]

god damn I started on a 50ccm working up to a 125 now, couldn't imagine starting at over 400ccm (am 15 btw)

[@Wasif_Akand]

JUST START WITH EP 2 !!!!

[@Sk8rpunk04011990]

Thank you so much for creating this Learn to Ride series. I took the MSF course this weekend and passed! I had zero motorcycle experience. I watched this series for months on repeat to prepare me for what to expect. It really help me grasp the basic beginner motorcycle skills.

[@jonahmorgan2679]

Just now getting into bikes at 20 years old. Been researching for the last week all the different bikes, power levels, different engines, models, clutch controls, and what will be the best bike for me. Thank you so much for creating this series I really appreciate it, makes looking for a bike and knowing how to properly control this kind of machine properly, safely, and most importantly how to enjoy the experience. Be safe out there.

[@Adhamfv504]

Video starts at 6:30 , thank me later

[@davidgamble9327]

First time rider! Grabbing a 2022 mt07. Can’t, freaking, wait. Thank you so much for these videos.

[@CoolKidGaming1256]

My favorite part is the cop posting up at the end of the parking lot

[@jonasgrove1812]

I love this I'm 49 yrs old, I've rode when I was way young, this is helping me relearn to ride a motorcycle. Thank you for the series

[@redturban1328]

Thank you I love your genuine encouragement. My late father used to ride a Virago, yet I was way too young to learn to ride it myself at the time. So looking forward to jumping on two wheels for my own development.

[@AdamMc.R1]

passed my training course in Ireland 2weeks ago. Just bought my bike too, looking forward to this series!

[@catfishman1768]

Look out! They drive on the wrong side of the road there

[@WolfGuideZ]

Thank you! Watched tons of MSF info and courses online before I took mine with harley. Harley msf certified! 0 experience before and these videos boosted my mental confidence by 10 times the first time we rode. So excited to be riding on 2 wheels. New mission : Stay Alive! Ride safe yall!

[@alexisbeckley7754]

A bit late on the comment. But after my life went down hill I got very invested in my interest in sportbikes. Recently been looking at a Ninja 400 for my first bike. And as a 5'2 rider any bike will be a struggle for me so I've been getting so much insight on everything on bikes including how to get on and off when you're a short rider like myself. This video was extremely eeducational; every time I watch a video, I'm more confident about passing the MSF.

[@SmiFF_]

I've never driven a motorcycle so far, always have been a car person (personally and practically) ... but with the amount of cars nowadays on the streets, i need to know if a bike is WHAT i need or not ... need to mention i don´t have a bike license YET, only a car/truck driving license category. At the end of these 5 part videos, I'll let u know if i enjoyed the "ride" :)

[@Boone_Shiesty]

I remember watching your videos 6 years ago and remember you talking about making how to ride videos. It’s crazy to see how far you’ve come, awesome work

[@Ibby.M.I.786]

April 2024, I'm in South Africa and in my late 30's (going through the study material for the Learner License). NOBODY, I repeat, NOBODY from this country has put up a learning series like this yet. So this will definitely be helpful. Our equivalent to the MSF Course is only achievable after one obtains their license (although the riding license test from our Department of Transport isn't too difficult to obtain) as well as some actual riding experience - which I don't believe is entirely fair. I want to ride to commute, explore, journey, experience the world of motorized 2-wheelers (I have no idea why I left it this long - especially when my late father was a rider, but better late than never I suppose). I love and appreciate the biker community as well as they are wonderful human beings. Motorcycle riding is also highly therapeutic and since I'm highly introverted, this can be my medicine so to speak. I'm watching till the end and saved your playlist for repeats. One can never stop learning. Thank you Chase

[@KawaiiAznPanda7]

I’m hoping to be able to ride in my lifetime. It’s refreshing and a review to watch this. Would you consider making a video on what to look out for when BUYING a bike? Things to avoid, red flags, green flags etc.

[@djrogers1573]

I've grown very fond of riding w bike, and I'm actually wanting a Yamaha i just love the look of them but that cf moto is calling my name, I've been watching Chase for awhile and i have your vids on notification so i don't miss anything, you make it look cool and you tiuch on all the bases you break it down n it's all very easy to catch onto.. i love your series man... watching this learning so much from you man keep em coming

[@falampaza]

Just got my Ninja 400 and for months I have watched most of the instructional videos on KZbin and man nobody is on par with you brother!! Kudos to you and keep em coming🙏🙏👇

[@SkipperDust]

I got my licence Oct 2023, I fall in love with R7 and motorcycle idea in summer 2023. Before I took my MSF clacc I watched this playlist couple times, and yes, I nailed that class I thing I was only one who really knew what motorcycle is and what each part does. Thank you C2W for making this playlist, I'm not gonna have a bike till 2027 (sadly) but I have plan for it and my dream will come true that year. Can't wait 😁

[@ajbaquilod9389]

just bought my first manual bike and the emotions are superb from being happy, excited and scared at the same time coz i am not used to clutching. been using a scooter for years and this is a whole new thing for me. tips from other beginners will be helpful as well. thank you i love your vids..☺️

[@Rocknium1]

I've watched you since 2015, from motovloging to this amazing content. (I always hated that you spoke a lot but always enjoyed your stuff)

[@akrinapinto]

Thanks for making this series. 10 years after getting my car license, I’m still terrified of one day not noticing a motorcyclist. Now, I’m taking my motorcycle license and the anxiety is doubled, with me aware of how invisible motorcyclists are. Trying to ensure I learn as much as I can to keep myself safe. Thanks again for making this series ❤

[@johnczerepak9704]

"I have had so many bikes replaced by them, I have lost count" Seriously? Is this who I want to show me how to ride?

[@mommawilson4277]

Not just “guys” ride, girls do too!

[@Drifthaze]

I had a friend teach me on his bike the basics. I have taken his bike out solo twice. I am now years later about to get my own bike and get into this for real.

[@Splenectomy0]

Been watching through these videos for the past week since I decided I want a motorcycle. This gives me confidence since I already drive a manual car daily.

[@nightcall7398]

I'm here as a rider and manual BRZ driver re-visiting myself as a new rider. Thanks for making this series bro! I can always review the basics!

[@kurokubushi]

New rider here. Just spent a month getting a Yamaha Vstar 650 up and going. Now, it's time to start to learn.

[@djrogers1573]

I'm definitely a first time rider and watching you gives me the tools to know what to expect, but i feel like I'll have a good handle on it the way you break it all down

[@tavisnettleingham693]

Just found this playlist and it’s quite the relief, I’ve just picked up a EX300 Ninja for my first bike, was told 125’s aren’t brilliant to start on because of the sheer lack of (get out of trouble) power, my bike is 32bhp and I’ve ridden an R6 for the first time on a bike and instantly knew it’d kill me, I’ve driven a car for almost 2 years and I need to ease myself into the bike world, need to book my CBT and direct access and then I can learn to ride my bike!

[@Killergaming-ec6si]

3 years ago you inspired my aspiration for bikes now in 4 days I’m getting my first bike a 23 r3 I’m so excited

[@destinydmh2959]

I have owned a small semi-auto motorcycle for about 3 years and still i am watching you guys now There's always something new to learn, am i right !!!!!

Hi there!! thank you sm for your videos, helping me alot!! getting my first bike soon& i cannot wait🔥 greetings from switzerland🏍️🇨🇭

[@chloestorm4509]

Been riding for years but I’ll be skimming through the videos anyways because the r7 is such a nice bike to look at

[@MuddyTubMedia]

I already know how to ride, but I really like looking at the R7, so I’ll watch anyway

[@HJZ75driver]

Can always learn more

[@MuddyTubMedia]

@@HJZ75driver you are absolutely right!

[@MrMcAwolfe]

I just passed my course recently and finally going to the DMV for the stamp and just bought a road king. I'll be watching all of your videos.

[@rhardy6721]

Actually started off with your episode 5 but I'm reverting back to the very beginning. Ima new rider myself wanting to know & learn tips & skills needed to be a good & safe motorcyclist. Love the vids so far!

[@otrOptions]

I'm so torn on whether to buy an r3 or r7 for my first bike. I like the r3 because it's cheap and less powerful and if I don't like it I won't feel as bad as if I bought a 9k r7..

[@flexluther2175]

Have my class in about a couple weeks! Looking forward to watching this series!

[@GodsChosenpeeps]

Great job! I learned alot by watching your hand movements when stopping and going on the bike. 😊 On to you next video! Imma love this series!

[@bdotty2320]

Watching these videos cuz I love the bike life, love to see all the beautiful bikes rolling down the road, and wish I was apart of it. From when I get my first job to getting my first bike just can’t wait

[@brimmed]

I took the MSF and honestly forgot most the stuff I learned by the time I got my bike two days ago. So here I am lol. I at least remember some of the fundamentals like looking where I want to go, "orange" grip to stop. But shit being in traffic is a different beast

[@juan8401]

Couldn’t have come at a better time I take my msf course next week. Cant wait to learn how to ride

[@jahbless1]

This is the best beginner lesson I've seen on KZbin

[@Powerslide15]

I just got my permit from taking the MSF course back in May, and found a steal of a deal on a '01 Honda Rebel 250. I'm excited to learn more techniques before I test for my license.

[@JLWrangler23]

Just bought my 2024 R7 today! New rider (I had a Ryker 900) so I’ve never used a clutch. Went on a test ride today and oh my god. It was literally terrifying but so much fun. I have really bad anxiety so it was kinda intense. I knew what to do but when I sat on the bike I forgot everything and stalled haha I got it up to 2nd gear though! I gotta say though the torque is kinda intimidating and there’s no way I could see myself on anything with more power. Never been this dedicated to learn something. Really hoping I can develop the muscle memory

[@ramonag.5262]

This is awesome, exactly what I needed, first time rider! 😊Thanks for putting these series together, much appreciated.

[@westoeplays9762]

Hey appreciate your help never rode a motorcycle but it’s good that your explaining it, and it’s good to be welcomed into the Motorcycle World

[@FirmBeliever1007]

Hello new rider here super excited and slightly nervous lol thanks for your content! I decided to start on a 250cc since I’m completely new that was my comfort for getting started

[@Guest-hc8pn]

While I've driven a manual car before, shifting gears in a bike and messing it up has me a bit more concerned. On top of that, is other drivers. I see how distracted drivers are on a daily basis. I watched another one of your videos and loved it, so I came back to watch the entire series. Thanks for posting these!

[@Tango-020]

Time to watch these series now, im going for my driving license in about 2 weeks now.. i want to be prepared and knows all the stuff

[@kenseals8284]

I haven't rode yet, but I am looking to ride and will be watching these videos continuously, until I learn, and even after I have learned.

[@bbbyjay1264]

I’m all in researching mode and finding content like this! I am a new rider or getting ready to become a rider I should say.. and will be making the R7 my beginner bike!

[@christiankrippler9162]

Here at 52, maybe a little late to the game. Taking motorcycle safety course next week and have purchased a T120 Bonneville. Can't wait to ride!

[@tsubarider13]

I've been riding since July 2020 and I'd like to believe I'm decent for a beginner, yet I'll happily watch the whole series just because I know how good you are. Also, can never know everything, so I'm bound to learn something :)

[@ol_son9998]

Really enjoyed the videos and the tips, tricks and the new things I've learned from here on the channel. I've did the chores and enjoyed it and having my brother going through it now. THANK YOU

[@chancecompton4061]

I'm new, and I plan to start on a husqvarna 2024 vitpilen 401. Just under 400cc, just under 80nms of torque behind about 370lbs with fuel, I'm about 200/225lbs. It might be a touch punchy starting out but I'll adjust with practice. It haslow seat, and I'm a short ass at 5'6", so that's been a huge factor in choosing all this. Top 3 for me were engine specs, ergonomics, and cost. For a current year, factory fresh motorcycle, the price tag of $5,899.00 USD seems damn near achievable for someone who has never once possessed enough money to even consider *thinking* about buying my own vehicle. Honestly, I love the aesthetic of it too. Its just the right balance of retro and modern cafe racer styles, of which I am a huge fan, especially scrambler bikes. Its just a sexy way to design a bike. So yeah. Im excited, and really hoping i can get some overtime or have people take some weight off my shoulders so i can make this happen before winter😅

[@uh60rider2000]

I rode (illegally) a Rebel 250 back in the mid-90's and never got caught. I haven't ridden a motorcycle since. I'm about to take the course next month. Thanks for doing this series

I'm gonna be joining the motorcycle game next year with any luck. My sisters significant other owns a Kawasaki ZX6R and will be teaching me in person. I've always liked motorcycles about as much as I do cars. Always wanted to learn how to ride and truly experience riding. I know how to drive stick as I currently drive and own a 2003 Protege5, but you can always learn new things, and since gas prices are skyrocketing, now is a good time as any lol. Ride safe everyone.
