THIS is how you RIDE IN TRAFFIC on a Motorcycle

[@DeerDrinksBeer]

This series is very unrealistic as it doesnt feature a turbo hayabusa that all yammie noob viewers ride

[@shmobbie1]

I like this style of content A LOT more than the more fun and short videos. As a newer rider it helps a lot to actually see how stuff is really done. All the little details that people don't talk about really add up. Thank you and keep these coming!

UK rider here so I'm on the wrong side of the road, but the beauty of videos like these is that they are universal. The advice is solid and invaluable. I'm a relatively new rider and just thinking about things like lane position that you only get to learn on your own, after you've passed your test. Thanks and keep it up 👍

Very valuable content that I think the biker community (especially the sport bike community) need to see right now. With large channels promoting unhinged riding styles and the new season starting; newer riders will hopefully see this and hopefully learn some things and pick up on good riding habits. Hey even more experienced riders might learn a thing or two as well!

[@douglasbarnes9807]

Great Video! I’m just moving through the Motorbike License system here in the UK. It’s great to have some positive role models to help a new guy through

[@SWORDSLINGEROMIO]

Seeing you explaining the road while riding is fun & helpful

[@iVambie]

I have two older brothers who've had bikes for a year or so, and it's made me really want to join in as well. I find most of your videos insanely helpful, please keep doing these blogs! Very insightful to hear a biker's thought process out loud while riding :D

[@unwrangler11]

I like the way you are real world riding and not preaching unrealistic riding styles.

[@LiLgPnoy15]

Kindly do another one of these. This is really good information! Much appreciated.

[@masterpugyt665]

Recently just got my motorcycle permit and watching these videos gets rid of any anxiety I have about riding.

[@schigara]

The best thing about a liter bike is that there are very few situations where it's not safe to pass because it can be done extremely quickly in a short amount of space. Love my ZX10R.

[@Ealdor-Bana]

Full respect for showing people how to be a proper rider on the road. We all like fun but we also need to be respectful of other road users and our own lives. Too many youngsters trying to be “cool” is a recipe for an early grave.

[@uwinsome]

Consistently riding more than 5-8 over the speed limit is not near "proper riding" 😢 ! Do better

[@Staromil]

This is what you MUST do if you want to trully master dense urban riding, at one point you need to acquire and ride for a while, wait for it, a fing scooter. Believe it or not you can push scoots WAY harder in really tight environment and it will boost your understanding of how gaps and flow work.

[@therationalanarchist]

"Going for a pass at this moment would be unwise" It would be illegal too because that was a no passing zone.

[@DeniedClimax]

big fan of this series, look forward to more, Yammie dude.

[@nephilimg]

I fell asleep to this in a good way it was relaxing to watch

[@NanaRides]

If you think everyone buys a bike to speed, you are wrong. Lots of us buy and ride bikes because we enjoy riding in the fresh air. The thrill of riding without a cage is enough without needing the adrenaline from going 100+ mph. The speeding is a youth thing for the most part, in my opinion. Yes, there are some people that refuse to grow up, or just enjoy speed, but in my years of riding, most of us that are out of our 30's and 40's are fine just cruising and enjoying the ride without needing the danger of speeding.

[@davecarrera]

Filtering in the UK, which is legal, I now switch on my hazards and highbeam headlight. In the main, it has the same effect as Moses parting the red sea.

[@micahnewby3482]

Keep this series going please

[@charleysjostrom]

Great video. I do, however, disagree in your lane placement. For visuals reasons I would primarily use left half of my lane. Riding at right hides you from oncoming cars, especially if a car or truck is in front. Second, by riding right it is an invitation to others to pass

[@scorchthelost]

I learned a valuable lesson when I drove all throughout Texas. When in Texas you either go with the flow of traffic or you cause an accident.

[@SWORDSLINGEROMIO]

23:49 this kinda clean road with very low amount of people on road is very very rare in my country

As a long time rider, this type of content needs to be more prevalent. Good stuff, Yam.

[@GuilhermeTeixeira]

É de se admirar a capacidade do Yammie falar por 37 minutos sem parar um instante sequer. Fiquei até zonzo

[@MurffSurff]

Yeah lane position is something that I adjust all the time and live where there are turn lanes and the left only turn lanes with the way the traffic end up if I’m placed to the left of the lane closest to the left only I move more to the right at that light so people can squeeze through this not blocking them

[@CharlesBrewer-k8u]

Thanks Clammie!

[@JustAGuyYaKnow42]

I love hearing you say that there's no reason to speed in a neighborhood. I have people going 35 through ours. To go from one end of the neighborhood to the other that fast might save 30 seconds. It simply isn't worth the risk.

[@robertcooney6908]

Good job, great for new riders!

[@Pere99]

Here in spain you can filter in red lights, in fact were i live there is a reserved space for bikes so you can filter, is one of the big pros of having a bike, a travel inside madrid that can be 40-50 minutes in car can be 15 in a bike, I don’t really understand why you see filtering as something bad If traffic is not moving, when I was younger I used to filter in moving traffic, that’s what I consider irresponsible, but if the traffic is not moving I don’t see the danger

[@tomkagi3903]

Perhaps I'm biased (living in Bangkok), but I'd love to see this format in a REAL high-traffic setting...not this easy rural+suburban setting. This is a good start, though...

[@theodorecalkins4212]

The crazy amount of thinking that goes into riding like you are in this video is something most car drivers will never understand. I have hundreds of thousands of miles and know that you only said about 5% of what you were thinking.

[@SinglemotherSenThiViet]

What a beautiful motorcycle! ❤❤❤❤

[@medfloat5001]

Endos at every stop

[@Cailean_MacCoinnich]

Fortunately for UK riders, we have a course called Bike Safe, run by the Police (when they're not chasing noobs on Hayabusa's of course). Here in London you go out for the day with a couple of plod on their bikes and get taught how to 'Make safe and constant progress' by filtering (lane splitting as you 'murican's call it) through the dense traffic of central London. I'm always shocked when I see in some states in the US that filtering is illegal. With the traffic in the UK it would be pointless to ride a bike if we couldn't filter.

[@SunnyAyyy]

a 30 minute drive just for juice sounds insane to me, i have to assume that the satisfaction from the ride was more than the drink at that point 😅

[@thedaltd99]

How come US riders don't fully stop at stop signs? (11:17) I'm going my training in the UK and that would be an automatic fail on the test.

[@fabianmckenna8197]

They normally do come to a complete stop since the police will use any failure to do so to initiate a stop...... Just depends on whether you get caught

[@fabianmckenna8197]

Driving for a UK test involves doing everything correctly but once that's over you sometimes develop some bad habits. My American daughter lives in an area close to a large highway with several twin lane feeder roads. These are crossed by side roads which all have stop signs so getting out involves stopping at half a dozen stop signs to reach the main road. Son-in-law pointed out the police cruiser which regularly nabs offenders!

[@steve00alt70]

The more of an area you know well the more you get too relaxed which can cause an accident

[@cheeber7546]

Would you be willing to make similar videos in other cities, like NY or LA, Toronto...? I'd like to see this in different traffic conditions. Like NY Traffic.

⚠️ Is there any way to mitigate your hand from cramping up while covering the front brake?

[@jack.giannelli]

15:31 it seems like he’s braking on the corner here but i didn’t see him grab the brakes to load that front tire while the bike was upright. so are you able to hit the brakes should you need to if you’re on a slight corner like that?

There are times when its not possible to filter. You just have to wait off to the left or right in a que never dead center.

Driver at 18:15 is the sort that kind of irritates me when I'm on a bicycle. I've been riding on a road that has plenty of room to pass me, and I have literally had cars drive off the shoulder into the gravel, practically into the ditch, on the left, leaving me almost 2 full lanes of space. Dude. I mean I guess it's better than passing me with 6 inches of space, which I've also seen, but still kind of weird. I've concluded that a whole lot of drivers have NO ability to judge where the right (passenger) side of their car ends. There's a narrow bridge underpass (150 year old stone bridge built before cars existed) that actually has room for two cars to pass by one another, but many drivers stop and hold up until there's nobody coming the other way, then pull over to where there's maybe 2 feet of space to their left, and 6 to their right. Again, no idea where the right side of their car ends.

[@Angel___________________]

That sounds super dangerous but if you decide to go through with it anyway maybe you can ride something like a cruiser at the speed limit or lower. Dirt bikes might be an option too. Once again super dangerous but some people do it anyway.

[@bentbarrelfishing]

Hey did Yammie start a Facebook page or is it a fake account?

[@telemantid]

Love your content, Yamster! But...I definitely do not ride as close behind other vehicles as you sometimes do. Mumblegrumble harrumph.

[@anthonyplank7444]

So instead of talking about the real estate in the area can you say when you’re gassing through clutch, and how you can to a stop sign without putting foot down? Talk about when to downshift, you could respond saying that’s self explanatory but this is a video teaching traffic. Unless I need to go watch 5 different other videos to learn safer clutch control in traffic.
