In this video I cover how Exercise #2 is relevant even in your driveway.
You may be asking yourself, who are PRELOADERS?
PRELOADERS:
Subscribers to this channel who are dedicated to being proficient in slow speed motorcycle operation.
What does PRELOAD mean?
PRELOAD:
Engaging the throttle to raise the RPM’s (revolutions per minute) above idle and holding the throttle there, with the clutch pulled in (no power to the rear wheel, “in reserve” “PRELOADED”). This process will make power to the rear wheel available to the rider immediately when the clutch is opened up. There’s no need for the rider to be concerned with twisting the throttle for power because it’s already PRELOADED.

Hey LT - been practicing and the other day at the gas station I went to make a u-turn and as I’m going through I felt my bars go into full lock and man it felt good knowing it was the tightest u-turn I’ve made unintentional just by confidence built by your practice exercises. Thanks for your efforts on sharing life saving knowledge.

[@BeTheBossOfYourMotorcycle]

Rob, that was definitely a Mr Rogers moment.

[@BeTheBossOfYourMotorcycle]

[@rodkramer8879]

Had a situation the other day when I had to gas up. Had to make a sharp right turn off the street thru the gutter up hill and a sharp right turn to the pumps. I was terrified, but I was already preloaded and in the friction zone with the rear brake covered. Really thought i was going to drop it, but I remembered you saying oh oh so I left the clutch out farther and made it with out running over a gas pump. Needless to say I was thankful for you and really felt I had accomplished something. So thank you again Robert.

[@BeTheBossOfYourMotorcycle]

I’m glad you felt like you really accomplished something because you did. You could have easily given in to that doubt and fear, but you chose not to… You trusted and you believed! That’s a huge accomplishment because it’s in the memory banks now! While it’s there, keep doing it. It will become 2nd nature. Very proud of you my fellow Preloader!!!!!!👍🏾👍🏾

[@billcarson1966]

Seeing Don practicing riding between two cars is a big deal for one simple reason. His age. It's easy to be cocky when you're in your 20s. At Don's age, it's a whole different ball game and level of bravery. Bravo, Don.

[@Moto_G_NYC]

Mr. Rogers Garage. I’ve been talking to my riding friends about slow speed practice. Since watching your channel I notice the bad habits of my friends.

[@BeTheBossOfYourMotorcycle]

😂 Yes that’s going to happen. Remember, if you’re going to try and help them, be mindful of how you say what you say. You know some people may feel judged and that’s not what us Preloaders are about. We just want to help. Each one, teach one. 👍🏾😁

How many accidents in those 15 years? I know I've had a few in 35 years, usually doing something stupid when I was younger! Usually road rash, a few broken or cracked ribs, and hurt pride! I always tell people if you ride, you need to know how to wreck them just as much!

[@petergraaf4219]

Hi Robert, thanks for all what you are doing. I watch all your videos and practice a lot. My confidence has been approved a lot! But I have an idea. You advertise a lot about being a VI pre-loader and for your merchandise. Is it an idea to raise money for charity? Maybe is it possible to reserve a part of the membership contribution for charity. In the Netherlands we have raised a lot of money with our HOG chapter during the great relay 21. Are you familiar with this?

[@BeTheBossOfYourMotorcycle]

It’s my pleasure. 😊 I’m happy that my channel has been helpful to you! That makes all the time and effort that I put into this so worthwhile! No I’m not familiar with that.

[@scottorr5758]

Today I got stuck in a tight spot at Home Depot. Had to make a U-turn in a parking isle due to a stalled vehicle. Used what I've learned on your channel, preloaded, covered the rear brake, let the clutch out to the sweet spot and turned around within 18' with bars locked and no foot down! Thanks LT

[@BeTheBossOfYourMotorcycle]

Wow Scott!!! That’s just awesome!!! Good for you!

Thank you sir ! I’ve watched your KZbin’s also

[@BeTheBossOfYourMotorcycle]

Be careful out there!😁👍🏾

[@RILLAMAN84]

I didn’t watch the whole video because I’m getting ready to leave for work. My question is, why get on your bike from the right, instead of the left 🤔. I get on where the kickstand is located. I’m a new rider kind of. I learned over 10 years ago. Just recently got my motorcycle license when I moved to Florida, from California. I’m ALWAYS up to getting more information about how to ride. I don’t have a bike yet, but I’m working on it.

[@BeTheBossOfYourMotorcycle]

Yes there are two reasons I mount and dismount my motorcycle from the high side. The first reason is from training. Officers usually pull over on the right side of the road and when doing so, we are trained to dismount the motorcycle on the non-traffic side for safety. The second reason is it avoids accidentally causing scuffs on my saddlebags or backrest or anything else that may be victim to a swinging foot. This also includes a passenger being on the motorcycle while you're getting on. The third reason and most relevant one for now is it's easier. My hips are bad so not having to swing my legs up and over the seat is very beneficial. Hope that helped.😊

[@koningbolo4700]

I hope to graduate my motorcycle course in the next few weeks. I also am working to fix up a 1968 Russian 1940's BMW R71 copy/knockoff (Dnepr K750) which I like to make my daily rider. I am planning to keep practicing the slow speed and higher speed exercises I had to show with good result in one of the exams. I also like to some advanced exercises but have a hard time compiling relevant exercises. Can you point me to a web location where such exercises are described and shown please??

[@BeTheBossOfYourMotorcycle]

I’m happy that you’re planning to keep practicing. I suggest you Google what you’re looking for because I don’t know any to refer you to. 👍🏾

Good Day Mr Simmons, I have a similar scenario as a new rider. My garage is on a hill and the curb has a dip then lip. My fear is hitting the curb and being able to ride all the way up and into the garage in one motion.Thanks for this video it's gives me confidence to go try- wish me luck.

Hey Robert, new rider here -- I saw the clip where Don mounts the high side of his parked Kawasaki. Is there a video where you explain that more in depth, because the MSF Course taught my class to mount from the low side.

[@BeTheBossOfYourMotorcycle]

Thank you for watching and hopefully you’re subscribed to my KZbin channel!👍🏾😊 kzbin.info Here you go. kzbin.info/www/bejne/jGSsgKGEiMydmtE

[@lawrencearmstrong8414]

I have an idea how preload can be explained to people who just don’t get it. You know how you raise the RPM’s on a lawn mower? That’s your preload. After the mower blades turn on and it has to propel you through the grass it takes power away from the engine. So we load it and keep it loaded. Step number 3

[@BeTheBossOfYourMotorcycle]

👍🏾

[@keggmcmuffinn]

Why get on the hi side? Every video I watch talks about getting on the low side. Wondering the difference here?

I have a question, when you're pulling into the driveway or place like that... Do you pull in the clutch as well? Or just keep using the rear break and along with slow speed ?

[@BeTheBossOfYourMotorcycle]

Thank you for watching and hopefully you’re subscribed!👍🏾😊 I stay in the friction zone and use the rear brake when needed.

[@ARreckless14]

Hey Robert, I’m new to the channel and I’m in my way to get my license and my first bike. I also live in NY. NY says to always use both brakes to stop. Is that only at high speeds?

[@BeTheBossOfYourMotorcycle]

Hey Tony. Thank you for watching and subscribing!👍🏾😁 Welcome to the Preloader family! So some people use both brakes. I never use my rear brake at high speeds. Congratulations on the license and the bike! What are you getting?

[@JC-bm7nv]

My understanding that police officers dismount on the high side to protect themselves from traffic, but why do you reinforce the practice of non-officers getting off the high side? Thank you for sharing all your knowledge.

[@BeTheBossOfYourMotorcycle]

Yes there are two reasons I mount and dismount my motorcycle from the high side. The first reason is from training. Officers usually pull over on the right side of the road and when doing so, we are trained to dismount the motorcycle on the non-traffic side for safety.

Hey Robert, I just had to comment and tell you that I just did it! I turned from my street onto my inclined driveway between me and my lady's cars into my carport for the first time without putting my feet down even once! I Preloaded, used my clutch and rear brake to near perfection (I'll never say perfect because I'm still learning) but I did it. I just took the MSF class in October of this year and bought my bike immediately after I passed the class, I still have a slight fear of the bike especially because I have fallen off once but I have realized after watching your videos that was because I didn't have enough power going to the rear wheel during my turn ( I can't exactly remember but I also my have grabbed the front brakes) anyway I've watched all yours riding lesson videos in your Playlist. But I DID IT I'm smiling from ear to ear and I look forward when it warms up again here in Missouri to riding everyday so I can make riding slow second nature

Robert, I really appreciate your passion to help us! It takes a lot of work to put these videos together and very time consuming. I am honored to be a VIPRELOADER! I would love to see you as well as Tall, and join everyone in Knoxville, I reserved a hotel for that weekend, it's a decent ride from NE Ohio (575 miles). This gives me an opportunity to not only meet you and fellow PRELOADERS, but Tall as well. God bless Robert and keep up the great job you're doing for us, see you in July!

[@BeTheBossOfYourMotorcycle]

Hey James. I appreciate your appreciation! I am honored to have you as a V.I.Preloader! I look forward to meeting and riding with you!

Hi Robert I'm a 51 yr old new Rider, I've been riding about 1.5 weeks and I just bought my first bike, (2020 Honda Fury) 1300cc. The bike seems relatively easy to maneuver. I've watched all of the vids and was a pre-loader before I bought my bike, I've been practicing slow speeds a few days. I've also watched motoman and he was saying how preloading can hinder, burn clutch out, is that the case? I will continue to watch your videos, hopefully I'll be able to come down to GA one day.. Thanks Danny (St.Louis)

[@BeTheBossOfYourMotorcycle]

Hey Danny. He mentioned preloading the rear brake. That’s not what we do here. We Preload the throttle. Hope to see you soon!

[@AmericanSCPO]

I think Ive watched all your vids maybe missed one or 2. Why would you get on your bike on the high side? I never seen any one get on a motorcycle from the high side. I appreciate your advice.

[@BeTheBossOfYourMotorcycle]

Yes there are two reasons I mount and dismount my motorcycle from the high side. The first reason is from training. Officers usually pull over on the right side of the road and when doing so, we are trained to dismount the motorcycle on the non-traffic side for safety. The second reason is it avoids accidentally causing scuffs on my saddlebags or backrest or anything else that may be victim to a swinging foot. This also includes a passenger being on the motorcycle while you're getting on. The third reason and most relevant one for now is it's easier. My hips are bad so not having to swing my legs up and over the seat is very beneficial. Hope that helped.😊

[@AmericanSCPO]

@@BeTheBossOfYourMotorcycle Thank you for that in depth reply. I tried this on my Road Glide and it is easier to get over my driver back rest. I also tried it on my Street Bob. Not really practical for the SB the frame seems a little small and it's about 300lbs lighter. Again thank you you insight has helped me improve my riding skills.

[@BeTheBossOfYourMotorcycle]

@@AmericanSCPO It’s my pleasure. 😊 You can do it on your Bob. Make sure your hands are on both of the handle bars before you put your weight on the motorcycle. That will ensure your weight is centered on the bike and you can just step over the seat. Give it a try and let me know how it works out. 👍🏾
