Learning How To Ride A Rebel 300 (Day 1)

[@BrandonWest87]

Broski! Your patience and teacher mindset here was phenomenal. No frustration, irritation, or rushing at all. Just letting her get familiar and comfortable while helping her was awesome. Textbook example of teaching a skill to anyone! 👊 🤘

[@essardaudinett6934]

She already rode a grom, It is just a show. All the fuck ups happened with the grom.

[@markmarki9511]

He's a good af teacher

[@JennyLynn-x9o]

Unbelievable

[@JennyLynn-x9o]

Unreal patience so good to see

[@mignons.hammer2109]

I so agree with you. I've not seen anyone that patient in teaching someone to ride.

[@BensDad2003]

Go for it guys! I am 60 and touched a bike for the first time this past May at a MSF class. Passed the class on my second time at the end of August. Healthy fear is good it keeps us on our toes. That being said, enjoy the ride!

[@oceanhome2023]

Is this the first time you have ridden a motorcycle ? I assume that you are very comfortable peddling a bicycle around . I am 71 but I used to own a motorcycle in my youth , this Rebel motorcycle has renewed my desire to get one so I am somewhat in the same boat as you !

[@marioknowsitsgod1506]

Welcome to the family 🏍️

[@ricksanchez2983]

Same here. Age 65 and just took my MSF course a couple of weeks back (20 days to be precise.) That was originally with the intention of getting licensed to ride a Vespa, but after learning the manual shifting, I'm now gunjy to consider a Honda Rebel as well. So I'll be building my skill set and confidence on the scooter and when I'm ready, I'll joing my Harley riding son with my own cruiser. At this point , Sonny Boy is riding with me. We do look the odd lot--a 1200 Sportster along a Vespa GTS 300. lol

[@downdroneservices8910]

I’m 49 & considering a bike

[@omarjohnson3049]

Thank you soooo much for writing this. I’m 49 and considering taking lessons.

[@nomadmatt8020]

Probably one of the best and most informative vids you’ve done. Nina seems very self aware and sharp thru the process. Get her to use two fingers only on the levers to instill a better sense of control. Hope to see you guys on the road one day.

[@LifeOfBurch]

Thanks man! Definitely plan on working up to just two fingers on the clutch, but it’s a bit hard for her to reach right now until we get some adjustable levers for her! Hopefully soon though 🤞🏻

[@ginakulbicki4499]

I'm 5'1" and OLD (47) and this video helped me ride again after a torn left miniscus and arthritic hands. Thanks for being kind and good to her.

[@MansterBear]

I remember in my MSF course they told me I did good, but needed to use all 4 fingers to brake. They didn’t deduct any points but mentioned it. I said ok but never planned on changing it. It just made more sense to me to do it that way.

[@MoonLeaf_RaquelLeBaudour]

I LOVED this! Super helpful. I’m 51 years old and I’ve wanted a motorcycle since I was 15. Nobody in my family rides. I’ve never learned how to properly ride and I’m ready. 🍃💜🍃👌🏽

[@leftymike8730]

She’s doing great! I would get her used to the clutch and friction zone by just duck walking the bike around the parking lot, no brake or gas. I’ve taught many, many people to ride that way successfully. No need to rush anything, she will be riding in no time

[@LifeOfBurch]

Yup, that’s what we were doing! Some of the duck walking turned into foot dragging though because she’s so excited to just get her feet up and go! 😂 Love seeing how excited she is about it!

[@themotorcyclemaiden9162]

Nina all the feelings and emotions that you were going through were the same exact emotions that I’ve gone through so don’t let that hold you back. I’m still quite new to riding and get nervous every time I get on the bike and that’s a good thing because I think it keeps you alert. I’m looking forward to seeing day two of you learning to ride. If I may suggest which I’m sure you already know by now, please wear boots in case you drop the bike and it falls on you, you don’t want your feet to get smash/crunched. My first time on the bike just like what you did today, I came to a stop in the parking lot and forgot to put my feet down and down I went with the motorcycle on top of me and I was wearing tennis shoes. From that day forward every time I got on the bike to practice I always slipped my boots on. Good luck!

[@GwenMotoGirl]

Anita, seconding everything you wrote. Although I love riding, almost 10 years now, I still get a bit nervous when I’m doing my pre-ride check. I hope she watches your channel. It’s so good.

[@jbean530]

Good advice. And knee pads saved my knee from breaking.

[@marthaburcham3509]

This was awesome!! Mike is so patient and calm as the instructor and Nina did an amazing job!!!!

[@JohnPlissken]

@4:20 that's why I don't wear shoes. Walking with shoes on wears them out faster. Also don't use your brakes to stop, it wears out the pads. And turning on your engine wears the pistons. So just park your bike in the garage and leave it.

[@TheSamaell]

Dude … you are a good instructor BUT what stuck out for me was how amazing you are with her and managing her feelings. There is a lot of machismo around bikes and I swear you are the first person that I ever saw that took a moment, explored the feelings of a new rider, made them ok to manifest and setting the noobs mind right before they start moving. I don’t know if you are but you will be an amazing dad. THIS is what I love the most about bikes … drivers make cars great, bikes hold up the rider not the other way around.

[@jderrick1994]

great job on the teaching man, that kind of patience and reassurance goes a long way in helping the new riders keep at it.

[@stonerthoughts177]

One of the things I learned when I first rode a bike is “ don’t over think it”. It’s a machine nothing more. You are the one in control.

[@bagookster]

I am 5’3” on a good day and used to ride a rebel 250 15 years ago… just got the rebel 500! Great advice at the end, and I remember all those feelings you had. Excited to see your progress!

[@jamesb.armstrong5433]

Good for you. My wife is over 60 and she learned to ride on her Monkey. She was riding around the parking lot the first day. She passed her test on the first try she has a Rebel 500 now also. She actually likes the Rebel better because the seat height is lower than the Monkey. We wanted to get the same bike for her and me. That is why we got two 500s. It's perfect for her to learn on and still enough bike for me. Best of luck to you.

[@Cxrdero]

Hi amanda! Does both your feet can touch the ground on during stop? Im also 5'3 and wondering what's the perfect bike for me. Thanks!

[@bagookster]

@@Cxrdero easily! I think the slim design of the 300/500 Rebel body makes this possible. It’s so comfortable to ride ☺️

[@womanhoodisnotacostume7648]

I'm the same in the 5'3 club. Any recommendations for the first timer bike ?

[@bagookster]

@@womanhoodisnotacostume7648 I highly recommend the Honda Rebel 500. Any less cc and in a month or so you’ll wish you had the 500. They make the 1100 too, but the tank is a bit wider, which pushes your legs out a bit, and for me, made my feet reach a bit too much for comfort.

[@Beej1133]

This was the most calm interaction between a male and female under stress that I have ever experienced! You are both amazing. Many blessings.

[@miriammosca1683]

as a girl that is getting her licence soon this video is exactly what i needed! i wanted to get a licence and a bike for nearly ten years now so the anxiety is SO HIGH. this video made me realize how being nervous is totally normal and how i should not stress over it! thank you so much for posting it

[@mtmoto4522]

Where is the rest of these videos this one from like 6 months ago and I love the raw input from her as trying to teach / information some one else how to get basics

[@BikesAndBites101]

Me and my girl have been watching your vids for a while and she has never been more entranced than this one. She was literally hopping up and down because she was EXACTLY like Nina when she started out on her Rebel 500 last fall! Keep at it!

[@SeanTracyEsq]

I just bought a Rebel 500 today after committing to learning how to ride last year. Even after buying the bike, watching dozens of KZbin videos, taking the MSF online course I still felt the same fear she did as I pulled away for the first time down my block. Her honesty and trepidation is extremely refreshing after seeing all the other videos, hope she has gotten more comfortable in the saddle

[@KevinRodgersGB]

A really good lesson....I'm surprised. Not sure what I expected. Nina did well. Do remind her that ripped jeans will not protect her knees even in a low speed car park drop, same with gloves. I was pleased she fastened her jacket towards the end. Safety is one thing that's important to get right from the start. Good luck.

[@jamesbart317]

That was the greatest beginner video I've ever seen. The questions she asked were so good. The self talk. And the realistic pace of learning something new. Great video guys!

[@JohnEmery-jc3dh]

Hey thanks for making this video. I am 52 years old and went through the rider course last year. I was super excited about riding for the first time and loved the course. I watched 2 people crash the bike ( they were both ok) and it seemed to happen out of nowhere. And that was just in a parking lot going pretty slow. You’re right. A healthy amount of fear is a good thing.

[@jessicaceballos2769]

I watched this video for the first time a couple months ago and just brought home my first bike yesterday(Honda Rebel 300). I had my dad drive it home from the dealership for me. This morning I rode it around my parking lot a few times. I started to get really disheartened by how many times I stalled, then I remembered this video. Rewatching it to soothe my confidence. Thank you so much for this video. The vibes are immaculate. I love how supportive and kind you are Burch, and how vulnerable and honest Nina is. Honestly I'm getting emotional watching you. This video is really helping me release some of that internal criticism and prep myself to get back out and keep practicing. Thank you both so much.

[@shaered4378]

This is awesome. I just got started into wanting to ride side by side with my husband and he has been so patient with me with learning on his bike. He was doing exactly what this guy did into teaching me. I only dropped his bike once and it's all a learning thing. Love this

[@webmastermail8]

Well done Nina, nerves are good. I'm 59 and rode bikes all through my younger days including being a courier in central London then came marriage, kids house etc and a 20 year break. When I got back on two years ago I was as nervous as hell and still am at times until the wheels start turning, stick with it the feeling can't be beat.

[@Shadezyyy]

I’m looking to get a bike (also a Rebel) and everything discussed here was exactly how I felt when my dad in law helped me out with the clutch, walking out the bike, friction zone, etc. You’re right. People should understand there’s a fear and a sense of accomplishment when learning. Chase them goals! Thank you!

[@albertcaro9272]

I respect the fact that you show yourself dropping the bike in your intro Makes people who are new to this feel like making mistakes isn’t bad and is just part of life Great video

[@heatherbrown7934]

These are ABSOLUTELY the kind of videos the internet needs. Thank you!

[@SuperStacheBrosGaming]

You’re a natural teacher man!! Super rare quality to have, and I’m very thankful I came across your channel!

[@idriveanagerar]

BEST suggestion someone told me. Bike turned off. Put the bike into first gear. Pull the clutch in. Walk the bike. Slowly release it so you can feel the friction zone without worrying about the power of the engine taking over. It’s all about slow walking it just until you feel the clutch grabbing the transmission. You can have a ‘no engine power’ way to get an understanding of your friction zone. Simply the best advice I was given. I am a first time rider and I did this for hours. This made my clutch lever feel so seamless I hardly even think about my friction zone now. Best of luck with your bike and welcome to the the rider world!

[@cattalkbmx]

This is what learning and progress looks like. A great teacher and an equally receptive student. Real goals and expectations. Congrats to both, thanks for sharing!

[@tnbeehive]

I’m new and I haven’t rode in decades. I got this same bike and I am terrified but feeling better since watching this!! Thanks

[@TJ-qo2xu]

Seeing her progress from this to her passing the test to the solo trip has been so badass! GO NINA!

[@tbrdmann]

OMGosh. Thank you for sharing this video. It was so nice to see young folks showing kindness, caring, support, thoughtfulness, and respect towards each other. Especially between a man and woman. You just don't get to see that anymore. It also brought back memories from my late 30s when I first learned to ride. I couldn't hold my balance. But quickly improved. Much luck and happiness. 👍

[@spikedrubyshoes]

Love everything about this. Literally the exact experience of feelings when I got my Rebel 300 in October. So happy for you!

[@dkxanime6081]

do you got it [reply after 2 years]

[@MixedGrid]

Love it! 1 thing I'd say is even during learning in a parking lot low speed we still need to be wearing gear, especially proper shoes and gloves

[@yetiinthebeddy1368]

been riding for 3-4 years now and i still enjoy watching people learn just because it reminds me of how excited and happy i was when i learned lol

[@roaddog7542]

Like others that have never been on a bike I landed here looking to increase my knowledge. This video had the perfect balance of a teacher with plenty of patience and encouragement and the student willing to listen, ask questions, and share her learning experience with others that may go on the same journey. Thank you.

[@yomairaserranosoto7082]

I’m so glad to see this video. I just got my license yesterday and I felt exactly the same way you did. I also wanted a nap and sushi and wine after 2 hours, except I couldn’t. I wish I had gotten on a motorcycle before so it would have been easier on me. It was mentally and emotionally exhausting. I got on a bike for the first time on Saturday and took the test on Sunday. The hardest thing: making a U turn (can’t put your foot down) and a sharp left on slow sleep, if you got that then you can do anything, in my opinion. Believe me girl, you will do great and I’m glad to see such a relatable video. Relax and enjoy the ride. At the end I was able to pass. I had great coach. And also my husband was graceful supporting me and encouraging me. When you get the gist of it you will feel so wonderful. I wish success and joy for you. My only advice, get out of your head if you stress, relax, believe in yourself, and turn your head, look at where you want to go.

[@SlapshodWingnut]

Absolutely fantastic video. Fear plays such a role for novice riders. Overcoming it, in a positive way, and not being judgemental about it... You teach really well.

[@shayedayne2685]

I’ve been thinking about getting a Rebel as my starter bike. So knowing her height compared to mine puts me at ease. the way you explained the shifting helped so much no one ever explained to me.

[@ridingwithsteve]

My girl is about to buy her first bike. She loved this video and would like to see more of Nina learning.

[@jamessalera3107]

I cannot thank you both enough for this video. I have watched a ton of “beginner how to” videos but most of them speak as if you already know stuff. I don’t. But to hear him actually speak and teach an actual person on a bike ( together with her POV ) it just felt like I, myself, am being taught firsthand. I love how she delved into the fear of the bike and him saying how most of that fear comes from people telling you how hard and dangerous riding is. I’ve been wanting to get a bike of my own but I’ve never driven one before at all. He was right to say that the internet needs these kinds of vids. I have learned more in this one vid than all the other ones. Not just motorcycle stuff but also the mental approach to it.

[@1985kehc]

As a new rider, who only has had my rebel 300 for 2 weeks and backpacker for 3 Mos before...this is incredible!! Thank you. I love this and the self talk is so true and nerves the comfort and encouragement patience is great. This helped me feel better with my clutch work. Woot! Go Nina and bro! Lol

[@raccoonbigg]

As someone getting a Rebel 300 as their first bike, and is currently studying for the MSF, this video is great.

[@1979mccoy]

I am learning to ride, and I love that Nina is showing her vulnerability and speaking the fears I have. Thanks!

[@jimkeller59]

Nina there is so much fun to be had, and there's a lot of you tube advice from reputable coaches. Doodle on a motorcycle is a good mentor for you I think. Don't give up on the dream.

[@ryanmichael9604]

Honestly videos like this are needed. I know I'm so late to the party but proud of her for trying. I'm a 30 year old man who wants to learn how to ride and I have the same fear 👌🏻. Thanks guys

[@stevemiller7433]

I always wanted a Vespa. I found the one for me, a 250. Problem: Scooters > 50cc require a motorcycle endorsement. OK. Bought the Vespa. Had it delivered. Could not ride it. Took the "Team Oregon" Motorcycle classes, at the end of which you get a certificate which when given to the DMV will get you your endorsement. What Fun Those classes were! Problem: I love my Vespa but missed shifting... Solution: Now I have a motorcycle AND a scooter. Your patience with her is admirable, and you're a good teacher. The team Oregon classes were similar, very step wise and non threatening. I learned survival skills for the road.. I can't imagine riding without instruction.

[@A53055]

Damn your a great teacher dude. Good job.

[@auggith]

hey nina- nobody thinks you’re stupid. i promise. everybody started like this (my first time on a motorcycle was 10x more catastrophic). asking questions and intentionally learning is infinitely better than rawdogging it. there’s a lot of different processes and variations when it comes to riding. also i’ll be honest, i don’t even know where neutral is half the time. i learned to ride on a motorcycle with a broken gear indicator and i couldn’t get it started for the life of me at time because i couldn’t find neutral. hope you’re enjoying riding ❤

[@CadetMeyer]

I found you late, as I recently committed to my desire to have a motorcycle. I bought a 2023 Rebel 1100T, and found you scanning YT around looking for more info. I've seen a bunch of your videos, but rarely subscribe (to anyone), this video convinced me to not only subscribe, but also donate to future videos! Your calm demeanor, and light heartedness, and especially when you were working through her fear - really resonated with me. Thank you for all your hard work on these videos! Keep making great content!

[@LifeOfBurch]

Thanks so much man!! I’m glad that this video resonated with you, and I seriously appreciate you subscribing, donating, and taking the time to comment 🙏🏻 Congrats on the new bike and good luck on your riding journey! Ride safe my guy 🙌🏻🤘🏻

[@maakatipa4613]

I'm 9 and I'm soooooo proud of you. Actually I'm 62, but still proud of you. Anyone who rides is a family member.

[@dianatenorio1530]

I love that I'm not the only one that talks to myself while I'm learning. I just got my first rebel 2 days ago and am just getting the basics down and it is scary bit I'm so excited!!!

[@davidfrankhauser1666]

Love this, getting ready to teach my son! Bikes were huge in my life and youth, at 18 he has been bitten by the bug. (Finally). I’m trying to remember the different steps from the motorcycle safety course that I took back in 1989.

[@klipzig]

This is a good video. Hoping to see more. I took my beginner motorcycle class several weeks ago and I now have my bike. All the confidence I gained in those 2 days is gone and I feel like a noob again. Will use these videos for practice. Thanks for doing this series.

[@cosmicreaper8632]

I'm currently in the place as her right now but, I don't have anyone helping me. I have a cousin but he's telling me not to be a wimp and just go for it. Finding videos like this makes me feel better about my fear of riding. I'm about to take it on the highway with only 4 days of practice.. I wish you luck and have as much fun as you can!

[@MattJill02818]

I’m 44 and finally have that itch in my life to learn to ride a motorcycle. I’m looking at just cruising roads and towns where I live. Nothing fancy. Had my eye on a Rebel 300 and this is such a great video. Thanks for doing this. Has me excited for my MSF class in the spring!

[@notwcrazydude]

Hands down one of the most informative videos ive seen. Im an absolute beginner and this has taught me so much. Appreciate it! I can't wait for the class I signed up for.

[@flowgood123]

My husband bought us e-bikes and now I'm ready for a 300 but it's a small town and will be on the highway so I'm thinking I might need a 500 because the next town is 45 miles away and I go there alot. Thanks for keeping it REAL.

[@bethharrell1202]

Love this video. Picking up my 300 this weekend! First time rider YAAAAA!!!

[@pyro3rsx]

Love this video. I’m wanting to get this same bike as my first and I’ve never ridden before. I am her size/height and totally feel the same way/fears. You’re a super encouraging and patient teacher. I’m hoping when I take my course, I have someone who is like this.

[@mackenzier5094]

Dude, you are an amazing boyfriend and teacher. This could have been such a hectic and stressful and bad experience for her, but you made it so chill. Like seriously, very cool.

[@TheBrock0Life]

After riding on the back with my husband for 2 years, I want to learn to ride on my own! You two have the best videos to learn from. My hubby keeps lol because I’m asking the exact same things as KomotoVlogs and she reminds him of me. 😂 Makes me feel like I can’t fail now after watching these! Thanks

[@ParaGIexpert1911]

Nina you did great I just started riding about 8 months ago. I have the rebel 500. When you get all the important stuff down it's a blast. Take it slow learn everything at very slow speed. I am excited you watch you grow I'm motorcycling.

[@thegiftofnature]

I'm thinking about getting this bike but haven't gotten my license YET and I just came from one of her vlogs where she was taking her first solo day trip on this bike.. so encouraging and amazing to see how she's riding on her own now! soooo rad

[@Dr.BenjiBuddy]

So much fun to watch someone riding for the first time. Reminds me of my very first time on a bike. Somehow with 0 experience -but having watched youtube videos- I just drove off and was going 30mph around the track within 5 minutes.... BUT after 10 lessons or so my learning curve got horizontal and it took me 15-16 lessons to get my motorcycle license 😅

[@SarahHamm-zh6nw]

This is so great, very helpful! I’m a new female rider, and I am a bit nervous of riding on my own, so this was amazing to see. Keep riding girl and keep making videos for people like me 🫶😍

[@johnrodriguez2608]

My wife and I are looking to take a motorcycle class to learn how to ride. We are looking at the Honda rebel 300. Thank you for this introduction video!

[@mayapingert7124]

I am planning on getting a rebel for my first bike and I needed this video. I did my M2 course but I learned on a bike similar to the Grom, so I feel her!

[@mamarabbits2272]

That was the sweetest and most patient teaching!

[@Coogfan1996]

Bro this video is amazing. Her reactions are priceless. What a great job teaching and encouraging

[@zenomato]

I don't often write comments, but this was such a good-vibes video. I don't know how I got here, but I just watched the video and felt good, props to Nina for being so reflected and chill. It is really interesting seeing someone learning to ride, and I'd love more of this stuff. Keep up the work.

[@jkubed95]

Burch you are a great teacher. Nina you have great questions. It kept feeling like you guys were reading my mind about things that I wanted to understand and see visually like that gear chart. This is the best beginner video I've seen, I'm so goddamn excited to take a class and get on a bike.

[@GunNut37086]

Was there a day 2? 3? I was stoked to see her progress because my wife just finished the MSF a few weeks ago and I was completely jacked to see how well she rides now after just 2 days of formal training.

[@sjuni8137]

I really enjoyed this video,the encouragement was awesome standing in front of the bike as she rolls off helped her to be conscious of the amount of clutch to let out., Thanks for sharing.

[@Macavity72]

Great mindset, Nina! Burch is really great at supporting you!

[@BipityBopity93]

Just bought a Harley 883 and I’ve never ridden a motorcycle before but have been watching a ton of content the last 4 years. I hopped on and felt confident and I was riding around and doing U-Turns the first day. EVERYONE is different but confidence is so important. You did great!

[@girlandherguitar]

This was really great! It is a rare person who does not feel that fear. It’s healthy. So glad you made this video. Thanks!

[@slapchop7166]

Confidence will come! No need to push yourself past what you're comfortable with. Everyone started where you are Nina, so be proud of ANY progress you make no matter how small you may feel it was!

[@insatiable_mind]

This is the best! My daughter wants to learn to ride. She wants a Rebel. I’m going to show her this. It’ll help her a lot!

[@LifeOfBurch]

That’s so awesome!! Definitely show this to her, and expect more videos like this once the weather warms up and we can get back out there!

[@emmadavis4887]

Thank you so much for this video. Is exactly how I feel. I want to ride so bad. I’ve been practicing for 2 weeks a little almost every day. I’m struggling with stalling though over and over. I got disheartened today and watching this made me feel not so alone.

[@strangesolution1465]

I know this is an older video, but it encouraged me to try. I got my permit and got on a bike for the very first time this weekend. Thanks!

[@ShaneWisecup]

Way to go to both of you. To me this is exactly how learning to ride should be. A patient kind and supportive teacher and a student taking their time getting familiar with everything and not getting in a rush while recognizing her fear and facing it at the same time using that normal and healthy fear to keep you safe. Best of luck on your journey learning to ride. I think this is a great video to help beginners start to understand what it’s like your first time on a bike. We were all beginners at one time and watching this video reminded me of my own similar experiences getting started in a parking lot getting to know my motorcycle. Keep the rubber side down and your knees in the breeze! Good luck and God Bless!

[@warDOG420111]

I now Nina is scared but we need more of these videos showing how to ride as a beginner this is great learning for her and the new riders. And Nina you are doing great keep it up we all start somewhere.

[@TinaJackson]

I will be 51 in June and just bought a Rebel 300, exact color and everything. I’m taking the MSF course 2 days after my birthday. I cannot wait!!

[@hazeleyeblondi1]

Thank you for the realness. I'm doing my "research" for getting a bike, hopefully next year. This is making me feel better.

[@KatieHoxit]

He is an absolute phenomenal teacher! I need him to teach me lol. I also feel all her anxiety, my hands were shaking and sweating just watching this. Congratulations girl. You have a wonderful boyfriend/teacher.

[@bboyIcy024]

This was an incredible teaching and learning experience to watch the both of you go through 💎💎💎

[@davidmax119]

Nice video showing enthusiasm, patience and common sense in both tuition and learning.

[@jiggy7719]

Glad to see Nina stuck to it and learned how to ride! You were absolutely justified in being nervous! I was scared shitless when I first started. I locked the breaks up and flipped on my side during the MSF road test! Thank god they let me redo it without having to pay for another class.

[@JennyJ520]

Oh my gosh. I got my endorsement a couple years ago and didn’t get a bike as soon as I’d like. Now I’m looking into a Honda Rebel 500. I need this guy to come out and help me get comfortable on a bike again!!!

[@malzy1977]

Y’all… I REALLY needed this video. I just bought a Sportster 883, and I’m nervous. I had a motorcycle before and I let it scare me. I’m determined not to do that this time. Thank you so much for this video!

[@torquer9669]

I love teaching people new things they didn't think they could do. I am so impressed with how you have handled yourself and are teaching her. You have earned a Sub big time. Take it easy Nina and enjoy the ride!

[@ashleyarlette7672]

Awesome content! I just purchased my Rebel 500 SE!. I took the Total Control Safety course and have my license but I still need so much more practice. Love seeing more women riders and the process. Keep it coming Nina!

[@iwish1982]

I’m proud of her for starting this journey.

[@OkByeNw]

This is one of the most wholesome things I've ever seen.

[@TiGress422]

This was a great video. I have always wanted to ride and everything she was saying is what I would be feeling too. I'm looking for MSF classes in my area to take. The comment about people saying how dangerous it is. I agree, and that has made me hesitate for a long time but no more. Thank you both!

[@Casanovaspice]

Honestly this video was so validating of how I’m feeling. Just went to get a Harley iron 883 yesterday to be my first bike and I’m feeling exactly how she is. I’m excited and scared at the same time can’t wait to learn and be comfortable riding. Thank you for the video!

[@sidy94]

You go Nina! Stick with it, it will be the best decision of your life! 😁 awesome video! Love seeing people falling in love with motorcyceling 😁

[@LifeOfBurch]

Thanks dude! Definitely been awesome watching her fall in love with riding!

[@IAlwaysBounceBack]

You accomplished something baby girl. I bought my bike n kept it put up for a full week n watched videos like this before i got on it.

The clutch pop at 13:30 is exactly what I did my first time a month ago at a stop light bc I was over confident after not riding for 15yrs and I dropped the bike. Fortunately 5mph but me and the bike shared some bumps and bruises.
