Top 5 MISTAKES To Avoid as a BEGINNER Rider

Just got your motorcycle license? Or did you store your bike for an extended period of time and are now starting to ride again? Make sure you watch this video before getting out there on those busier streets, highways, and twisties! In this video, I share my personal thoughts on some of the most common mistakes that I see and have even made myself when I first started out riding. Below are links to some of the gear I initially bought and still use.

Many thanks for posting, it’s always good to have these safety tips reinforced, even for “seasoned riders”. I’ll wave to anyone riding any make of bike, it makes my day if I get a response.

I agree with what you covered here.
I like practicing skills on roads I know well to reduce surprises and to be able to gauge progress.
Good luck with Harley riders waving consistently, if at all.
My take on this:
Their minds have been impressed upon enough to make them think their HD is the ultimate.
The worst ones will gladly tell you if it ain't a Harley, it ain't sh*t.
When I started riding on the street, the biggest HD egos were the sons of the guys who fought in WWll, and I believe their dads told them all about how Japs suck and all that.
Might sound offensive to younger people, but, that's exactly how things went because WWll was not a picnic. 😐

All good points for sure! Thanks for sharing this. I'm sure so many people are going to appreciate this video.

Awesome video! I can’t wait to have a full riding season this year. I just got my license in August and only had a couple of months to ride.

One more thing I’d like to add to the list is not being aware of wildlife like you would cars. Anywhere can be an intersection when it comes to animals, birds especially. Also, a full face or modular helmet will help prevent a bird and huge bugs from breaking your face.

Ive had my first bike (DRZ400) for a couple of years now, im 52. I told the wife AGGATT and so far ive been true. Ive had to admit that when it gets hot, I dont ride because riding with all that gear is too hot for an overweight guy. Thats ok, because i have an e-bike that tides me over. I can ride all winter though (East Tennessee). I miss it, but its not too bad because I get out on the boat. I really want a Tuono 660 for my next bike because it looks awesome as compared to the MT09.

Riding a motorcycle is a semi perishable skill…

What lens did you end up going with for your GoPro?

Think not in discrete positions and "mini lanes", you can be literally anywhere in the lane and you should take full advantage of that.

Hello， What is the material of the rs660 fuel tank? It doesn't seem to be metal, right?

Hello bro, What camera do you use for this video, I want to order one but I prefer not to stick it on my motorcycle, make a video about it, your videos annoy me a lot, regards
