Rider techniques, part 32: How to ride a SCOOTER? - Onroad.bike

In the rider techniques series we take care about scooter-riders. Even if you ride a 50 ccm (or an 800 ccm monster) you have to know these important things.

Got my first scooter last Sunday. This is the first youtube video that I learned so much about how to ride a scooter properly.

[@jamesconner3437]

Wow, a lot of really useful info , well spoken and well demonstrated. The slow forward brittle+brake and the emergency stop " no weight forward onto the handlebars"....those are super !! I subscribed. This is the first I've watched. Now on to the others. PS:. I'm a 74 yr old ex dirt and street 250 - 500cc motorcycle guy , now a novice 150cc scooter guy.....;)). But unlike here, I prefer twisty hilly back roads way outside the city traffic.

Great review! Thanks from Lancaster, PA, US.

[@maximilianisaaclee2936]

Good tips, especially the last, riding in the middle of in the lane. I never thought about that since I usually ride on the side and would even signal cars to overtake me if I see them wanting to go fast. If overtaking me was dangerous, then I would speed up a bit just to get as far away from cars as possible. Interestingly, I ride on a small scooter very comfortably without any leg problem because I'm short, I would still be a bit on my tippy toes when both legs are down and quite a distance from the knees to the handle.

[@queliolionelo]

Thanks for the tips! great advise. Saludos from Argentina!

[@AbdulHarisMRum]

[@drdoolittle5724]

Very good, much appreciated, thank you!

[@Jasper_Tree]

Very helpful. Thank you

[@IamBlueDragon_]

Thanks for the lesson. I’ve been riding a gsxr750 all my life and just recently got a Burgman 400 and found it so scary as the scooter is not responsive at (steering and throttle). As mentioned, not have the fuel tank between my legs making me feel so weird. Once again, awesome video 👍

[@johnsmith-jy7px]

Me for me. Sold my CBF1000 a month and a Burgman 400.Didn't feel comfortable at all when I first Rode it, but putting a few miles on the burg I'm beginning to enjoy the scooter. Safe riding.

[@danielflorian3458]

Never try to turn around a motocycle or a scooter on an uphill road

Good man.

Can I just say, I related, I want your glasses, they’re really cool!

[@lucasanfilippo5370]

Really good video, I am going to suscribe to the Channel... I has Always break the way you Teach, Just for instinct, or maybe logic.. the first time you incurr in an Emergency break and you break suddenly to hard, you immediately realize that can't be the right way and.. if you are lucky you have not to rise from the asphalt. Where I find some issue with my Grand scooter are fast strict Curves. The feeling is, that if I bend too much the scooter, the back weel loses grip.. somebody could argue that it's safer to make those curves slowly, but SUV and fast cars dont wait for you and going too slow, it's more Dangerous than keep a good Speed.. Hope for some hints, however I'm going to have a look on your playlist.. see you next time..

[@dirkvandenabeeleHungary]

Nothing beats the c650 gt in the curves from Orfu or Papucs, Not even Ducati could follow me at teh same speed, keeping the straight riding position.

[@Thirsty_Fox]

Great content. We don't really have scooters in Canada (except Quebec where you can ride the 50cc at 14) but they seem great for cities in Europe and Asia.

[@queliolionelo]

for cities, period! they´re the best in urban mobility. I´m from south america and you´ll see tons in the cities. What happens in the US is that you guys have waaaay more suburbs, the distances are longer and then scooties don´t make much sense

[@Imightberiding]

Out here on the west coast, there are heaps of scooters in Victoria & Vancouver. They're pretty ubiquitous, almost everywhere you look. More & more every year. From 50cc up to large 650 maxi scooters. Lot's of 125cc - 200cc scoots for city commuting. Not sure about the interior of BC or Alberta. It's a little more crowded in greater Victoria & the metro Vancouver area. I'm waiting for delivery of a Yamaha Xmax 300 at the moment.

[@High_Octane]

Yes we do. I bought the scooter in the vid new in alber

[@floridianthe5465]

Que bueno Amigo !

[@lefacteur11]

Lot's of great information. Can you tell me what scooter you are riding in the video?

[@katigasinofficialvlog4964]

[@CrimsonRaven51]

Good instructions especially the proper way of braking gradually so as not to lock up the brakes and lose control of steering.😅

[@Nerd10151]

I want to know too!

[@Gellert74]

Ez a videó létezik e magyar nyelven?

[@laryangel4082]

I like to put a plastic tunnel bag so i can grip like a big bike

[@saveriocontini6028]

Ciao e grazie ho un adv 350 e sono preuccupato perché è la prima moto

[@scooterman7098]

Can't hear over the engine

[@sugarnads]

Rode a 125 in thailand. I think youre making a big deal of nothing about foot position and not having something to grip on. I had no issues whatsoever. Its just a small bike. I ride a Z900 at home.

[@manstir]

I tried to sit upright on the scooter but got an ache in my back. Then I slightly bowed down a bit, and it felt more relaxed and I wasn't feeling any pain anymore. But my preference was only for me, maybe not others.

[@diduladesilva787]

Its like teaching how to drink water...

[@gbob1980]

Like, sub

[@katigasinofficialvlog4964]

It's very different betwin scooter And the regular motorbike sir right? That's why I don't like scooter.

[@idanalmoznino5051]

I think that showing riders they can swing their legs as a "riding position" is the most stupid thing i have ever seen If you ride like that your legs can hit a rock or any obstacle, get squeezed on the curb or a car and it makes it more difficult to turn because of wrong weight distribution

[@sergio1mancini]

Incorrect body position ! 1000000%

[@driftomanya3035]

Он что, русский? Больно по-русски говорит.

[@fintonmainz7845]

I could hardly understand a word because of that awful "music".
