ANOTHER GOOD IDEA IS FLASH YOUR HIGH BEAMS CUZ A LOT OF PEOPLE HAVE THEIR MUSIC CRANKED UP! MY BIKE HAS A NICE SET UP ALL STOCK HEADLIGHT ON TOP ROUND LED HALO LIGHT BELOW FOR HIGH BEAM ALSO A PASS LIGHT TRIGGER ON LEFT HANDLEBAR (ACTUAL TRIGGER) NO SWITCH I KNOW ALL BIKES ARE SET UP DIFFERENTLY ALSO RAIDER 69 MADE A COMMENT ABOUT A PULSATING STROBE LIGHT WHICH IS ALSO A GOOD IDEA WHICH I LOOKED INTO BUT SOME STATES DON'T ALLOW THEM APPARENTLY THEIR REASONING IS THEY MIGHT MISTAKE IT FOR AN EMERGENCY VEHICLE WHICH IS IDIOTIC IN MY OPINION BUT THAT'S THE GOVERNMENT FOR YOU.
I want to see this bike with a train horn on it. DO IT!!!
Slowly you're turning into a Filipino driver 😉
All dopey advice.
CycleCruza I love your videos and your very informative but did someone run up in your ass recently, why the sudden change in horn usage? I'm no mind reader but it sounds like you had a close call to a fucked up day.
Excellent advice man.. Had a Young kid come up to a stop sign tap his breaks for a second than drove straight in front of me .. Was a narrow miss between the car and the curb and it happened so fast that i chose my escape route before even thinking about my horn.. Ever since that day I Honk the shit out of my horn at every intersection or side street i pass and i dont care who gets mad about it ..
where im from honking for no reason can get you a nice sweet fine
Gotta be careful. Some states will ticket for unlawful or inappropriate use of horn.
Imagine what would happen if every motorcyclist did that honking shit
but dane cook said i could only honk 3 times a month haha
Hey cycle cruza 🙂 I put dual air horns in my R6 – they are the no-name version of a Ferrari horn. It gets all the attention when I lay on it. Had one guy cut me off turning left when I was going straight through an intersection. Laid on the horn and pointed at him… he felt like shit and was embarassed, because everyone in the intersection whipped their head around and looked at him. Highly recommend! Not sure if you have this store in the US (I'm in Canada) but here is the link

I DIED at 5:27. Thank you CycleCruza for making my day!
I can Speak from Experience, I was going 55 on a Highway & a Woman at a Stop Sign Pull Out in From Me & I Nail both Breaks & My Front Tire Bump Her Bumper & made Me Crash on My Right Side
My advice: WEAVE left and right when approaching these vehicles, watch their WHEELS.
I have learnt this in the MSF course and California Motorcycle Handbook.
It's a human factor, we are pretty bad at seeing small objects (motorcycles) and estimating the speed of something coming right at us. The solution is to weave left and right on your lane so you appear bigger and there's a motion of your headlight which subconsciously attracts the attention of the driver. Appearing bigger will also help the driver comprehend what speed you are going.
Thank u for your videos and im probably gonna do this.. im a new rider and as of today i have had my bike for 1 total week and ive been riding for about 4 5 days.. i have a zx10r 2012 and it is my first bike (i believe the rider kills the rider, not the bike itself) … i have had about 3 people pull out infront of me and i totally see how stupid these cage riders are smh. Please keep up this informative stuff n thank u again
Honking without a real reason is illegal in germany lel
Don't think this is good idea, cars might react incorrectly due to you honking. Horn should only be used to prevent an accident that is imminent.
Can u spell …paranoid. ..among us!!!!!!!
More amiable pseudo-solution: straight pipe that bitch
Hey Cruza I just wanted to give a shout since I've recently bought a 300 and started riding. Your videos have been super helpful and you seem like a pretty real guy. I really appreciate your strong yet prudent opinions on keeping newbs and veterans alike safe and I hope you continue to stay safe yourself and keep contributing to the motorcycle community. Cheers mate!
Cyclecruza this a good technique, and follow most of your advice. I always wear all hiviz including my helmet. But even that didn't help this weekend. One guy in a car cut me off and I swerved to avoid crashing into him. Unfortunately I hit the sidewalk and was severely injured. My bike was totalled and I spent 2 days in the hospital. I hope you all stay safe out there.
Good advice. If people don't like it tough. Better than been spread out all over the street.
What a fucking idiot! This is your idea of defensive riding ….riding around honking your horn?
I don't think you should make a routine out of it, but, I would say just don't hesitate to use the horn if you are suspicious.
It would be awesome to have a horn with sound of a chicken. 😀
People might be annoyed by bikers who use the horn every 2 minutes, but also quite entertained too.
I just wave both of my arms around when going through intersections and passing..every car, every time. People think I'm motovlogging but I don't care, as long as they see me.
Thanks for the advice
Love your videos haha they are so funny 😁❤️
