Why Is It Important To Know How To Make Slow Turns WITHOUT Leaning Your Motorcycle?

Hello KZbinrs! A special hello to my fellow Preloaders and V.I.Preloaders! For those of you that aren't PRELOADERS yet, click the following link to SUBSCRIBE to my channel and become one. / @bethebossofyourmotorc...

In this video, I once again discuss Exercise #4 (Right / Left Turns From A Stop). It's important to be able to make turns straight up. Your motorcycle isn't designed to be held up by your feet while it's moving.
You may be asking yourself, what 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.

Sweet Husband, this was a very detailed and instructional video. 💋 Good job Wood Jr. and Wallace!

[@BeTheBossOfYourMotorcycle]

Thank you very much sweetheart!

[@MrCRM2011]

Robert it’s a pleasure watching your classes. I just wanted to tell you I’m a Lt. Colonel on the Memphis Police Department and those techniques you are teaching I was shown by our elite motorcycle officers. The guys have shown me those very same maneuvers. I find myself practicing at red lights and in everyday turn arounds. I have a 2021 RGS and a couple of days ago I may a quick u-turn and scraped my floorboards for the first time. I was laughing like a kid. I did it all the time on my 2017 M109 but that’s the first time on this RGS. Keep spreading the knowledge and hopefully it just may save someone’s life. Hats off to you sir👍🏾

[@BeTheBossOfYourMotorcycle]

Thank you very much! Also, thank you for your service!

[@NMRay_Tesa]

I think a lot of people seem to be more about accessories and how they look on a bike vs learning how to ride properly. Thanks for all the advise. I consider myself a good rider before. But with your advise I have become even better!!!!!!

This exercise is so relevant for a number of different scenarios, for instance pulling into a garage with a 90 degree entry. I'm sure we all have some cases where we've been exposed to this situation...Great Video Robert! Good Job Mr. Woods Jr and Wallace ... "almost bought a Ram" ...

[@metricOIL]

Just listened to the podcast you did... great stuff... still trying to understand the Podcaster saying... "being invisible." On the bike.... being seen has always been my goal.

[@BeTheBossOfYourMotorcycle]

Thanks! He means ride like you’re not assuming drivers can see you. In other words, ride with extra caution and don’t take things for granted.

[@metricOIL]

@@BeTheBossOfYourMotorcycle 10.4 ..... always good to think about your position on 2 lane roads... especially busy oncoming traffic/passing... blind spots and being seen.

[@RoadGlider1839]

Robert I appreciate your videos but I will say that the situation needs to be handled cautiously Traffic will not expect a motorcycle to pop out in between cars that have been stopped. All riders should exercise due caution when pulling out in this scenario. Just my opinion

[@Rvbiker18]

Agree living in Fl , I wouldn't put myself in that scenario . Just wait for traffic to clear out. I've seen to many accident that way. The car waves you out and the cars coming the other way doesn't see you because of traffic and smashes into you .

[@BeTheBossOfYourMotorcycle]

Thank you. I agree with you. Any scenario that I present, common sense standards must always be applied. Knowing the road you’re on hells as well. The road I was on had no blind spots, except for the truck of course. Once I saw no cars were coming, there was no danger of being struck by a vehicle. It’s never a good idea to take unnecessary risks. 👍🏾

I had never ridden a big bike before last summer and hadn’t ridden any bike for around 30 years before that. I bought a goldwing as my first big bike and I was terrified of it so I searched KZbin for help and found quite a lot but yours stood out above the rest and I watched hour after hour of your videos and now feel comfortable and confident to use it anywhere, thanks (I still keep learning from your new stuff) 👍

[@BeTheBossOfYourMotorcycle]

That’s phenomenal and the main reason why I do this, so of course I love to hear this!! Keep it up (literally 😆)! Preload!!! And Keep It Loaded!!!! ©

Welcome back to riding. And welcome to Paying it forward and being aware that you needed to learn and practice this skill set to become the Boss of that GoldWing !!!!!

[@Rvbiker18]

Agree with you but that is where I refuse to turn left at the scenario. Seen someone get into a accident that way. I would rather wait for traffic to clear . That way I'm seeing and not putting myself in danger. Keep up the great videos

Been riding for 20 years...my friend paul walker runs the Motorcycle Training school in Northern Alabama always wanted to sponsor me so i can teach...ive sold harleys for 12 years and I tell everyone New and Old sign up for an advanced Riders class every few years to sharpen your skills! Its Fun and you learn something valuable and Life saving everytime no matter your experience!!! I lol at the comment a guy made where he finally scraped his boards on his fltrxs and he smiled like a child....WELL THANK GOD HES NOT MARRIED TO MY HUBBY....when I came back from NC dragons tail, wayah rd etc.Ii had ate1/2 the brackets that hold the floorboards my Rineharts that are black on the top are just shaved on the bottom hell even the bottom of my derby cover got shaved and that was from just having to much fun..he insist that my next bike is a cheap standard! Just to think i almost had it lowered before we left...Thank God i didnt!!!

[@kellybgliding]

Now that’s my weakness right there. I don’t have a lot of time to practice. Because I’m in a truck 10 to 12 hours a day. And it’s 5 to 6 days a week. Put I have to make the time some kind of a way.

[@BeTheBossOfYourMotorcycle]

Don’t sweat it Kelly. This is the majority of riders weakness. You’ll get it done. Preloaders will always find a way to get some practice time in. Be careful out there brother. 👍🏾

[@michaeltaylor1302]

Wood puts his foot on the highway pegs.....those are for the HIGHWAY!

[@BeTheBossOfYourMotorcycle]

I do the same thing. They’re called Highway Pegs, but they’re used for when ever the rider feels comfortable using them.

[@lifeliners1]

Do you think it's fair not only to practice riding but to announce your temp and such while my bike is hibernating under these freezing Temps in nyc .hmmm

[@BeTheBossOfYourMotorcycle]

😂😂

[@aaronackiss3424]

Nice work. I haven't gotten thru the whole vid yet but next time add a video denonstration of how much space you lose by leaning into it the same turn.

I wish I could. Funny you should say that because I think I said that in Practice Session #1. 😆

This is an excellent example of a practical exercise being utilized in a real world situation which reaffirms the need to practice, practice, practice! Motor skills are perishable, the more we practice, the more confident we become and safer we ride. Keep up the good work Lt.

[@BeTheBossOfYourMotorcycle]

Thank you very much!

[@raybrdjr]

if woody and the other fella just realized all they have to do is counterbalance their upper body in those turns they could make em every time. I saw and learned that from Robert watching these videos!

If wood jr had his left foot on the floor board instead of the highway peg it might help him

[@BeTheBossOfYourMotorcycle]

True it might, but not necessarily.

[@lennyevans4724]

as always robert, you make it look so easy. there's a lot going on there.. throttle, (not too much or too little), brake, (not too much or too little), head and eyes as always, and fighting the feeling your brain is telling you that you're falling and to put your foot out.. (the hardest for me).. OK, I think I need a shrink... lol.. practice, practice, practice.. when the snow melts.. lol.

[@BeTheBossOfYourMotorcycle]

Thanks Lenny!😁

[@keithmacris2182]

I get scared every time I see Wood Jr stop and have his foot down only wearing tennis shoes. I cringe and pray he doesn't break an ankle. I did in late October and I am always going to have a problem with that ankle. No way around it and it has totally effected my confidence and I feel like I'm a new rider who's never ridden a motorcycle I know it's mostly a mind thing but I am going to basically have to start over and I lost the trust and believe that sucks

I had alot of the techniques down pretty good but this bike is about 200 lbs. heavier than my last one and I'm struggling some with the fairing and weight of the ultra limited. Took the luggage rack off but I have alot of practicing to do! Thanks for sharing your knowledge and I hope you'll make it over towards North Mississippi with your classes someday.

[@frankt2658]

Hi! That guy on the white Harley would experience way less problems in a tight upright turn if he stops puttin´his foot on the highway peg from the get-go. That puts him in a sub optimal body position. Maybe he´s got some medical condition to do it that way, but if not, he better get used to not doing that. Greetings from Berlin, Germany, a town where you get fucked up pretty fast without that skill you taught today. A country, where you wouldn´t get a bike license if you couldn´t complete that lesson on rollator speed! :) Keep it up, keep our buddies alive!

Hi Frank. Thank you for watching and subscribing!👍🏾😁

[@vantastic_dreamer]

Thank you!

[@mhoeij]

You can also simply pick your foot up, let the bike "fall" into the turn, then all you have to do is give some throttle/clutch and the bike quickly goes through the 90 degree turn and straightens up. In that situation where you are sitting between the cars, wouldn't you want to get out of that situation ASAP?

[@BeTheBossOfYourMotorcycle]

No not in the situation. However, I do discuss what you’re referring to in several of my videos. Actually, in every Practice Session video, it’s covered in Exercise #4. Thank you for watching and hopefully you’re subscribed!👍🏾😊

This is an obvious topic and skill that is grossly unknown, undiscussed, ignored, and flat out avoided by countless riders.

Very good job. That right hand turn from a stop at an incline is tricky. Parking lot security came after me after I tried it 4 times on a Sunday. First time, I went over the yellow line. If there was a car there, I would have hit it. So, I did it until I got better. I’m only on a Grom, not like a Harley. I outran the security, though. I’m also an old lady. So, practice, and thank you for helping us.

But in the real world most lanes are at least 1 to 2 ft or more wider parking lot spaces are around 7ft but still good practice

[@BeTheBossOfYourMotorcycle]

If you practice within smaller spaces, larger spaces will seem even larger.

Good job bro! Buffalo,ny 15deg and cold!!! Be safe

[@BeTheBossOfYourMotorcycle]

Thank you very much! Wow!!

[@larryhigginbotham1009]

Nicely done, short intro, go to the point. I struggle with doing this maneuver straight up and would probably just go forward and let the bike fall catching it with the clutch as you have stated in other videos. Short story, need to practice it more. Thanks for the instruction. Youdaman!

[@BeTheBossOfYourMotorcycle]

Thanks Larry! It’s my pleasure. 😊 If you can do that, you basically already have this thing licked. When you start to let the bike fall, just catch it right away as you continue to move forward. That’s really all you’re doing to keep the bike straight up anyway. It’s just not an extreme catch. It’s a series of small catches. Does that make sense?😁👍🏾

[@alanspence1716]

@@BeTheBossOfYourMotorcycle I can do the small catches pretty well but every time the bike straightens up slightly and I don't make the turn. It's doing my head in!

[@iujmedw]

That left foot almost got stuck under that saddle bag on the White bike.

[@BeTheBossOfYourMotorcycle]

Really?

[@josephdunston9378]

I have gone through many of your videos from the ever growing list you have made, thank you by the way, looking for one particular example you showed. You explained the proper way to mount your bike from the right side. Do you per chance remember which video you gave that example?

It’s my pleasure. 😊 Check my latest 2-up video.
