When Shumi said, don't use Horn, it comes to my mind that People don't understand, the Horn is a safety feature and not a convenience feature. One should use Horn when they want to bring someone's attention to them when they feel, if not, it may cause an accident/incident. But what does the horn represent today? A tool to get everyone out of the way by annoyingly blowing it because I am in a hurry or I am not a good rider or it's just that I am a jerk.
@Unaad_Sam3 ай бұрын
Example of "Slow driver = Bad driver": On Mumbai Pune Expressway you see these Slow drivers driving in the Overtake lane @80 KMPH. As per them, "Hey, I am a good driver. I am within the speed limit and driving in one lane." But dude, that's the Overtake lane and you are not supposed to keep that occupied even if the whole road is empty!!!!
@itzmontupatel3 ай бұрын
Agree on that point you shouldn't use horn to move people out of your way but in Ahmedabad almost no one looks at rear view mirror to look who is behind and turn change lane whenever they want without looking behind but blow horn they will know someone is behind so, they think before breaking & turing handle 😅, sometime you can't fix people
@sarthakpatange26303 ай бұрын
Here is a thing, because of a lot of stupid drivers on road, horn is a must in our country. On a lot of instances during my riding experience, I have had stupid people who just swerve in from the extreme left lane to the right without any indication or warning. Heck, even hocking at them doesn’t get their attention. Indian road drivers and their skills are so bleak, even horn Ends up being useless in many cases. No lane etiquette’s, no manners, no skills, that our Indian road riders reality.

On "Start slow to get fast", I want to share a personal memory. I used to ride through office cabs in my last organisation and I was good with all the drivers those drove me to office. One of them gave me an advise on driving. He said "Sir aap koi bhi gaadi chalaoge toh pehle kuchh time gaadi ko samajh lo, tab tak slow chalao, 1 baar gaadi ko samajh liya toh gaadi aapke ishare pe naachegi" And that advice struck me and also i sticked to it till now. Whenever I have a new vehicle in my hand, I take my sweet time to understand it. Clutch, brake response, braking time, acceleration, stability, etc. I have to re-calibrate my brain according to this vehicle because my brain is calibrated to my regular vehicle. It might be just the first 15-20 mins, but I need to do this process in order to be safe and efficient on the road.

Like the white line which that vehicle just crossed should reach you three second later, thats the safe distance. The distance increases naturally with time. Such a brilliant advice, panic breaking(god forbid) is also not so panicked afterall, you will have safer distance to be taking command of the situations. Thankyou. Please keep up the good work. 💪🙏

The point of not justifying a purchase to anyone is so logical and yet so powerful! I purchased a CB350 RS a couple of years back, and I remember Shumi's words from his review: 'If going fast is not your thing, this is one of the best bikes that you can buy. But it's not fundamentally a Honda.' That described my riding style perfectly, and I was okay buying it since I did not know what a typical Honda is supposed to feel like and I really liked it after the test ride! 2 years on, still enjoying riding the CB350 RS!

@34:10 I think of this as SOPs. Whenever I ride a new motorcycle, I consciously make efforts to ride slow but correctly (everyone's correct can be different, so take it with a grain of salt). Over a few months, when those habits have gotten ingrained, I start increasing the pace. The only reason I do this is incase of an emergency situation, I wouldn't have to spend time to think consciously and my subconscious habits would take over. And this approach has saved me from a few close calls over the years.

As someone already said in the video, this is something which I do for extremely long solo rides. It can be really tiring to constantly judge the roads and surroundings for hours on the go. So what I do is find a "guide vehicle". A guide vehicle is usually a car on the road driving at my pace, which I can follow conveniently from a safe distance. If it brakes, i know I have to brake, if it sways I know there's a pothole coming. It really takes away like 90% of the load from my brain. Also guide vehicles are really helpful for driving in the nights as well.

I do own a cb350 and as you have said there is no need to justify anything to anyone but yes I was one of those guys who were constantly asking why there's no video of Cb350 on motorinc now I have got the answer 2. Since this is my first ever heavy CC bike, I also want to learn about how I can maintain it and still trying to find a 3rd party mechanic whom I can trust outside the manufacturer since the bike's 1year warranty is coming close to the end. 3. I have done impulse whether it was CB350 or the accessories I have bought along the bike which I have started to change one by one, but as it has been said one can only learn from the mistakes that he/she has made which I'm learning from thee impulse buying and that is why I am still lookin on pros and cons of having aux light and Intercom for my helmet, right now I'm treating these things as luxury instead of necessity. 4. The ego part I'm still learning because every now and then I do get into chase on highway which I want to control on in future. The only request I have from you guys is if even for short videos we can have Hindi as well since these podcast sometimes I want to share with some of my friend who do love to hear these things but they are not that well versed in English so they tend to ignore it, yes there are other Hindi content creator in automobile sector but I also want them to listen to you guys.

They just tighten something & give it off but those noises come again after sometime. Finally through a friends recommendation took it to a multibrand local car service guy & he identified the problem of some link issue which is making those noises.

Letting go of your ego while on a motorcycle is I think one of, if not the most important thing to practice. As the owner of a 'big' bike, a lot of times I'd be riding, and someone on a Duke 200, RE Hunter, RC 200, etc, would pull up next to me, look at me for a few seconds and would start to speed up and zip through. In those instances, I've learnt to slow down, the only person they're racing on a highway or a wide road, is themselves. If I am riding at 90-100 casually, I'll slow down to 70 to let them through and make sure and they gain enough distance that I don't run into them again. P.s., also while on the road, patience goes a long way and is the only right way of doing things

That’s one way to look at it. As long as someone is not making sudden lane changes or tailing behind with a hair’s gap, I try to drive as they don’t exist. Just expect sudden lane changes and keep your distance, or slow down momentarily if they are tailing too close. Ofc, this is not perfect advice. In Delhi NCR, you can get ego monsters who will make defeating you their life mission. But there is just something inherently wrong with changing your riding to placate someone else’s ego.

I have had 2 Bajaj bikes for the past 20 years (6yrs and 14 yrs). The cheap parts help with not having to find the trusted third party mechanic. I was happiest at the SVC who helped keep my bikes running well all along.

One thing I do in the highways, is keep an eye on the wheels of Bigger vehicles and match lane markings. Just to have the lane markings and compare it with the distance of the wheel is very useful. You can do that with the rear tire as well.

52:24 even half a degree is very noticeable, particularly if the truck is in motion. When overtaking. This is because the gap between the Tyre wall and the lane markings would change by the centimeters per second

Loved the episode and loved the way you analyzed each comment. I hope you continue with this format and keep up the good work. Kudos to you for keeping a community approach with this channel. I particularly liked the "Take a deep breathe" comment as I always try to inculcate it in my driving. Whenever I feel the urge to get angry at another driver's mistake or when I’m tempted to speed, I take a few deep breaths to calm myself down. It's a simple yet powerful technique.

I can see why Shumi loves motorcycles so much. It requires skills, you have to be at your best whenever you ride on the road, and it takes effort and attention to do it. But, when you do it correctly, few things are as rewarding as that.

One incident happend with me 'on looking furthur' part is, I was riding from Konrak to Puri town on the marine drive road and it was pitch dark. No roadside lights and the led on the rented glamour was also very dull. While trying to find my way through the darkness, I saw a motorcyle coming from front but its headlight was not reaching me. I slowed down and realise a herd of cow crossing the road. Averted a big accident. And after that I slowed down to 40kmph.

I resonate that. I remember seeing Shumis Overdrive review on Tuono V4 where in the end he said that he wants the bike in his garage but financially not possible. If this guy could show us the way he did it, I think we all can push ourselves to achieve the rides we love and then love the rides we have. No point in hoarding when you spend less time boarding.

I should've written this in the earlier video. In my college days i used to have an R15 V2, 2010-13. I used to love riding fast, like super fast I did 125 km/hr on a 150 cc bike. I had accidents 3 times. Mom was fed up, used to say this all the time but my younger self was not mature enough. A good driver or a trusted driver by the family is not the one who drives fast or who can get to a destination swiftly. A good driver is the one who can avoid an accident even if it's the opposite driver's fault. It's etched in my mind permanently.

Would like to share an advice too: most people already know what they should do, we often give in to situations we probably shouldn't and learn the hard way (If this hasn't happened yet, tomorrow could be your day). Learn to apply yourself more and get absorbed into riding/driving better each time like Shumi and you're golden. This is the school of thought I subscribe to. And please, red line all you want but look far ahead! It's India!
