I'm still off my meds btw, don't let my calm overly happy demeanor in this video fool you. BTW, while recording and editing this video, as I played it back I was like, "wow, what a nice sounding voice, this reminds me of 2019, pre-esophageal cancer surgery" and then I realized how I'm always mad these days, and that's probably not helping the very limited use my vocal chord can use, before I literally cannot speak until I rest for the day. Spain without the S. What even is this description?

When you start taking corner fast. You have to force the bike in to a corner and force it to stay at the lean angle since you are fighting against the gyroscopic effect of the bike, you really start noticing that the closer you get to triple digits. Not to mention the muscle it takes to go from 200mph to 60mph in a couple of seconds (Motogp level) and be able to stay in the seat. Not to mention staying tucked at 200mph when the wind is literally trying to rip you off the back of it. To put in perspective a cat 5 hurricane is around 150mph wind speed. Add 50mph more to that and then stay on. It gets exhausting fast.

Funnily enough, I never thought I'd be interested in a motorcycle, but recently me and my coworkers at the shop have all been looking into used motorcycles. 😂

Been to only three bike meets and those guys are extremely laid back, it's refreshing after all the nitpicking and whining I witnessed at car meets

[pugs]

Good points. Riding a motorcycle makes you a better car driver as well. You become more aware of what other people are doing and you learn to anticipate what cars are going to do.

[atomic...]

I may be a diehard car guy, but I still want a motorcycle, they just seem really fun to drive regardless of engine size, (honestly the smaller bikes seem more fun to me) and well my dad was a biker so he'd be happy seeing me take an interest in it, and if I need it, he can help me work on my bike.

As a more of a bike guy than a car guy, I actually very much appreciate your bike oriented content. Keep it up Bladed.

[packrat-yj]

There's something to be said about that motorcycle before car thing. I've never felt safer riding around on a bike than when I was in Japan. They're very aware of us as a class and drive in a manner that shows it.

[cantfindneutral]

I will never forget the day I got my motorcycle license certification at the MSF. Since then I couldn’t get enough of bikes and I met my best friend there too.

[Pokkarix]

I like the influx of motorcycle content. I belong in both camps but can only drive motorcycles since im not old enough for a car. It is interesting hearing about stuff from a person who was experience from both sides.

[mattcintron]

“So far from right it’s California” is and always will be my new favorite quote🤣💀

[bigsoup]

I like both and drive/ride both. However a car will never touch the adrenaline rush or raw experience that bike can offer.

[johnmusshafen]

Nah bro that's not an excuse to go out and buy the biggest bike possible but rather to buy a melee weapon and go hunt down some big game we bring in that paleo tea diet from Grand theft Auto to real life

[cheeFPS]

Honestly, I found that I was able to transfer my knowledge of manual on a bike to learning in my standard car. The fundamentals are the same and just knowing what's happening on the face level of shifting and rolling from a stop using the clutch made it 10x easier for me

[Castorxd]

I may have found your channel because of cars (not too long ago), but I really appreciate the motorcycle content too! Now I'm thinking of your channel as a bridge between the two communities and that's pretty cool! I have been considering getting a motorcycle for some time now, even if my city's driving culture is absolute garbage, because it seems both practical and fun to go places when you don't need to carry stuff, and this new spin on your content is certainly going to make me want a motorcycle more!

Randomly came across your video and enjoyed the insight. Especially good advice on starting with a less powerful bike. I started back in 1981 on a Honda 100cc bike (I live in the UK and was restricted to up to 250cc).

The one thing I would point out as a major difference in riding a bike over driving a car is that you absolutely need to be switched on 100% of the time on a motorbike. On empty long roads you can get away with 80% but on wet twisty roads at night you need 200%. It's actually a really good feeling when you have to be that switched on, there's a real buzz during and after the ride.

Every time I get ready to go our for a ride I take the time when I'm putting on my gear to get my mind in the right place. Ride safe.

So nice to see you point out that a 3 second 0-60 electric bike is not a beginner bike! So many other YouTubers have claimed that because they are gearless and clutchless they make good beginner bikes but that's far from the truth. The lack of noise and vibration can fool you into thinking you are going slower than you are and they are freaking quick with all that torque right from the first twist of the grip. Nice video!

[davidweaver]

Lol, at the calories burned part. I always feel worn out after riding my bike. The heat, the wind resistance, and making it turn. I took it to a parking lot to practice low speed turns and all the weight just comes down on your inside arm (turning left, then your left arm, and vice versa). You definitely feel it. Didn't realize it was to that extent, though. I'm sure it varies depending on what you're actually doing.

They are absolutely good for commuting. My go-to is a 1981 Suzuki Gs-650L, makes 60 to the gallon on my 70 mile daily commute but still has enough power to keep up on the Interstate without going wide open. I do get a lot of weird looks in the winter because the only time I don't ride is when there's ice on the road (for obvious reasons). Riding in sub-zero weather isn't all that bad if you have half decent gear. Still prefer nice weather though lol

[crossrift]

this video really convinced me that motorcycles can be fun. before this i thought of them as terrifying death traps and now i think of them as fun death traps. thank you for opening my eyes bladed angel.
