so i drive a manual car so just like in a car of if am in 4th gear i can go into neutral, if i am in 4th gear of a bike can i go into neutral or do i need to go through all the gears?
U don't have to pull in the clutch while down shifting from a higher gear to a lower gear. And u also don't have to let the clutch off slowly while moving for example from 2nd gear to 3rd gear.
You simply cured the biggest puzzle in my mind about gearshifts.. ;)
You make it look soooo easy! How long did it take you to become proficient with it? I am a new rider btw. I literally have everything down except for the shifting (well I only have neutral and 1st gear down). I'm only riding in first gear.
any suggestions on what size bike a beginner should have cause im 15 almost 16 and wanna get a bike
Monosity why did you switch channels?
first 3:30 sec the guy can hardly form a proper sentence! going to and fro on directions… confusing af.. voice cracking… jeeeez. now let me continue with the rest of the video lol
You're the real MVP motonosity!
Thanks man u r very gd
I just started watching all of your tutorials on this, even though a few weeks ago I rode a bike for the first time xD It was a 600cc Fazer and for some reason gear shifting, high speed turning and leaning came instinctively… Maybe it was all those years of bicycles? hah
These videos did help a lot, anyways, so thanks a lot for them Motonosity! :D
motonosity I seriously wish you would create a beginners series covering one subject at a time but covering all the steps. u da best dude. Keep up the good work!!!!
Click into the what? Hahahahaha
appreciate all the great videos..im gonna get me and the wife a bike in about a year or less and we're gonna take the safety course. I've been on dirt bikes and a 600CC about 7 years ago so it's been a while. thanks for your time and instructions.
Thank you so much!
Do you roll off the throttle all the way? Is it simultaneous or one then the other? lol Im a uber newbie if you cant tell just did my first day learner course today. Had a bit of trouble getting my head around this.
yo i love this series, big help thank you
Hey I was wondering what is something that a beginning rider looks for whole buying their first bike,??
once im rolling and about to shift to 2nd do i have to let out the clutvh slow, or can I drop it
your videos are the easiest to understand thanks bro
Hi Motonosity, Thanks so much for the tutorial. I'm moving onto my first 125cc in 2 months (Yamaha XT125X) and this video helped a lot, thanks bro!
shifting up is easy but shifting down is hard, sometimes the back tire just locks and makes the motorcycle unstable for a moment which may cause a crash
Dude. You're at Freescale!!! I just applied there before their power went down last month!
So essentially this is just the give:take method that you use in a car? Give as much gas as much as you take off the clutch, evening everything out.
awesome
great teaching!!!! do i keep it first gear at a stop in go red light to green light traffic? also wat gear i need up a hill and down a hill?
thank u for the video, i would like to ask, if you are in 1gear, you need to let go of clutch slowly right?, but what happen if i want to shift to 2nd gear, do i need to let go of clutch slowly or just a click or i can let go immemdiately, will it cause jerking of the bike?, thank u..
Awesome, thanks
I saw a lot of videos but the way you explained the gear shifting is very easy to remember
what happened at 3:25???
Confusing as fuck. Get your thoughts together dude.
Do you do the same posses when you shift the gears back to one?
So do bikes only have one break lever?
Thanks for the video
Im the 62nd thousandth subscriber!!!
do you get really hot wearing all this gear? noob here
Most informative shifting video I've seen.
Thanks for the video. Very good one.
When speeding up, if I roll off throttle, pull on the clutch, shift the gear up, and never pull on the throttle, what will happen?
Can u plz explain :)
Never rode a bike or drove a manual car but now i understand everything except when you should shift. At what speeds or rpms do you usually upshift?
i have a feeling im going to have the same problem as i did when learning to shift in a car i was nervous and wanting to powershift like im fucking racing nascar lol so i have a feeling im going to do the same and shift like im racing motogp lol
Hi I'm from Australia and I'm on my learners, I am new to motorcycling and I am glad that you have shown me this video about gear shifting. What you have shown is not only rev matching but also engine braking when you change gears down which would help me control speed to stop better. Right now I am a bit awful at doing it quickly atm. I suppose its better to take it slow and gear smoothly and then gradually speed up the process to a point you are just flicking it.
That kind of gear shifting will take some time for me to adjust but I suppose that is the best way to change gears and slow down to stops better, thanks for showing the video.
Thank you!!! that was really helpful, thanks for being real detailed.
What kind of a motor bike that has no clutch lever?i live in asia and sometimes i see bike that have two pegs for you to change up and down for gears and it have no clutch lever…what is it called?
Very simple technique, thanks for that.
wat motorcycle is it?
Easy peazy. Very good vid thanks
Wow I think I got it this video really helped me out alot you explained detail by detail I like that now I just have to look for a bike to practice on lol
Swallowed your squeeker lol 3:25
Alright so i have never been on a bike before. Sorry for this dumb question. But with the steps/ gear shifter, is it like a manual car or a flappy pedal gearbox. Is the position for 1st gear different from 4th, or do i click up and it snap back to the original position.
