Just wanted to say how much I appreciate everything you do and post!! You and your work are the biggest contributors to me becoming a safer and more controlled rider at higher speeds! All of this after riding for more than 40 yrs. Again, thank you for your desire to share an teach, and thank you for your service and sacrifice!! 🤟

[ThomasZachary]

Been riding 50 years. Because of your videos I updated ALL of my gear. Thank you! You are making a difference! Thanks

[michaeczycki]

I became much better rider just because of your YT content. You made me aware about blind corners, trail breaking, emergency braking which was a mandatory to have mastered when I use to had Honda Transalp (weak brakes). I do the emergency breaking each ride, low speed manouvers as well. I just wanted to say big THANK YOU Mr Fast Eddie :)

Every year, when the snow disappears in Alberta, riders change oil and get out to ride, but the hazard that still lurks until we get a good rain is that road sand still exists on the road. And within the first few months, riders have accidents. I saw a guy running fast into twisty corners, which, when the road is clean, is fun to ride, but he hit the patch of sand and slid across the road into the ditch. Ride to the conditions and think a bit before hitting the road. When I took training, my instructor recommended planning in your mind the route you ride and recognizing hazards before you get on the bike. It is no fun to not plan for sand or being hit in the shin with a stone from the past year's road grit. Wear gear and be alert to the conditions.

This must be the best biker channel out there. It took me a while wading through youtube algorithms to discover this gem. Lot of other bikers who start a channel are sort of knuckle heads, doing stupid shit on youtube or saying things like gear armor doesn't work, etc. and dangerously influencing others.

I'm just getting into riding, went out tried a bunch of helmets on last Friday found when I liked found it online for a good deal should be arriving today I'm so excited to receive my first piece of gear and of course it won't be my last I won't jump on until I get the rest of the gear ordered in one piece at a time if that's what it takes. I have a CBR 125r to practice all of the fundamentals with then I will be attending my motorcycle safety course before I go do my written and my licensing course. I am 42 years old and just beginning my motorcycle Journey which I think is good because I might have shot for that thousand CC when I was younger and skipped all of the training. The last couple of weeks I've been watching your videos and it's only added to the patience I already have in starting this journey. Thank you so much for making these videos over the years for us New Riders to go back and look at.

When I started riding, 1967, there were no schools. You did it the hard way. When I was 17 I went to school to learn how to drive formula one cars. These were cars that raced in the mid 1960's. A corner is a corner and a line in that corner is a line. Pick the wrong line at the wrong speed and it ends badly. This is true on a bike or a car. The problem with drivers is they learn how to steer a car, but not how to drive it. With a bike you have to learn to ride it, or you become a short lived program. 58 years on two wheels and very little road rash.

As a fairly new rider, your tips and videos have been invaluable. I’m 56yo, got my Learner Permit in November. I have a new bike 2024 CBR500R. In the last 4 months I’ve done just over 4100km (2600 miles). I ride to work everyday through a large city in peak hour traffic. I’ve made minor mistakes as you do when you’re learning. You’ve been such a great help. I’ve got your app and practice regularly. I go for my full license over the next few weeks. I really appreciate what you do! Craig - Australia

You changed my life and helped me get into motorcycling (the proper way) late in life. But it is honestly the best thing I've ever done for myself! Love to still see your content because it reminds me to not get complacent, get in the app and go practice. Especially as I get ready for my next bike, which will be a "big boy" bike. Currently on a 890 duke (from 390 adv), which is no slouch, but my better half now wants to join in my adventures so will be looking for something better suited to handle 2 up. And knowing she'll be with me is even more motivation to practice and get better. Whole point of my rambling is to say Thank You from the bottom of my heart and God Bless 🙏

We got into a debate about a couple of things a few days back (I'm right about all that of course :) ), but I still have utmost respect and appreciation for your contributions to the riding comunity. For the last year and a half, I've paid very close attention to what you have had to say and demonstrate, practicing your recommended drills for at least a few minutes almost every time I ride. You have taught me to be a better rider.

[Fixedthat]

I've been riding for a very long time (with a bunch of years off in the last decade, sadly), but never had any formal instruction. I came across your channel a year ago, downloaded your app and thought, "I should try some of these drills." I did a couple of them, and realized, "I'm not good at this." I've watched a bunch of your videos since then, just picked up your first two books, and plan on continuing to practice all of this stuff over and over again. Thank you so much for all of the effort you put into teaching everyone to be better riders than they are, to ride safer and more competently, and have more fun doing so. Four years ago I spent just about all of my free time over the summer resurrecting my 2004 Buell XB12R, since nobody around here was going to do it for me, so I just subscribed to Mike's channel as well. Thanks to both of you for providing so much free information to the riding community.

You’re not just a good motorcyclist and teacher, you’re a good guy, Motojitsu.

[sanjaykamodia]

A simple note yo say THANK YOU for all your hard work, YT content and enthusiasm to share your knowledge. I’m a veteran rider and still there are so many nuances to riding which I may be doing but you’re good at verbalizing and pointing out which helps me get better and better at my riding. Who says you can’t teach an old dog new tricks? 😊 I’m 67 and still learning although my riding style now is more relaxed, out to enjoy the ride than speed and leaning too far in the corners. I’m still learning skills or refreshing them to stay sharp with all you need to stay safe on the road.
Thank you again.
I’ve been to California many times and ridden a bike or driven my sports car in the mountains. It would be a great help if you can do a video and share all the beautiful roads you ride on with a starting point and finish for us to follow on the GPS…. It will be a much more enjoyable visit to California next time around.
Cheers !

After going to ChampSchool, I started looking at other riders’ brake lights more. It’s crazy to see how most brake lights are off before the turn even starts. (I had the same problem) Seeing your mechanic’s lights stay on so far into the corner, shows me he feels very comfy with those brakes.

[Streetbob]

I was the guy on the Harley on Sunday. I am grateful, impressed and inspired by you. I mentored many adults, teach middle school and coach. I always talk about purpose and identifying why it’s important to you. When I found out how you give your time for free and everything you mentioned in this video, it validates my statement in my posts that you are the best instructor. It’s very clear your thoughts, actions and words are aligned with your purpose to support safe, fun riding. My hope is to practice the science of riding with your app/classes so I can flow on the road and experience the art of riding. I have moments of flow and know I can only grow over time with practice and guidance. I appreciate you.

🌍🌎🌏 Your videos are exceptional ! I am 72 years old now, but just started riding the street as a re-entry rider in 2006 . Your videos have been instrumental in keeping me safe & alive ! Thank you !!!
🏍🏍🏍 At the start of riding season every year, I ride to a soccer field parking lot and do your drills for at least one hour .
One hour on my Suzuki GSX-S1000F and then one hour on my Yamaha Super Tenere ES on another day .
Those practice sessions are essential in jump starting my motorcycle mindset for the Summer ! Great video as usual ! 🎉🎉🎉

When I took my MSF course three years ago, I had never been on any motorcycle in my life outside of a 50 cc pocket bike. I had watched your channel and a number of Dual Sport focused other channels before signing up for the course or even sitting on a full-size motorcycle. My Instructor had been teaching MSF for over 20 years. I took the weekend long basic rider course and was surprised to hear the announcement at the conclusion of the written and riding exam that I was one of six students that had achieved a perfect score on both in 20 years of teaching. I attribute much of that to the background knowledge that I gained from your channel and from valuing education and training in general. Since then, I’ve taken adventure riding courses, enduro dirtbike courses, and I’m now planning on taking my Tuareg 660 to a road track training this summer. I’m a lifelong learner in my professional life, and I truly believe that being a lifelong learner when it comes to riding can actually equate to making your life longer.

Thanks for everything that you do.

[ezekielsobande]

Awesome ❤. I'm a better rider today because i watch and learn from your teachings. Now I shut up and Practice 😁

The body positioning, safe lean angles and trail braking here is so sweet to watch 🙌🏾
Thank you @motojitsu 🙏🏾
