Cool gloves, can you tell me where to get a pair of those?

By the way, I got the same kawa, but the naked one.

[Hyryze]

nice.. this is the first one of your videos i saw, funny. "if you come across a bike and decide you wanna steal it."

[xruptince]

thanks for the video man!! :D

[michaelwr80]

wow man thanks for the info

[spankey123456]

excellent bit of info!!!

[gilez789]

very nice video, maybe mentioning that some bikes are alot more harder to start (ie one that has a petcock, choke and kick start) would be good

[honestb]

Damn I thought I was the only who didn't know this information. Thanks for making me feel more comfortable and giving me knowledge mordeth.

[mav333]

WOOO YOU ROCK!

[LtRealness]

that's a very nice tutorial mate!! keep going!

would be cool if you'd put up another vid =)

[bjdrivers]

Great videos Mordeth thanks!!

[ezeedee]

great video! i hope to get a bike in the near future.

[ciubotaru]

yeea is cool!1

[MyZombieLife]

do you have any suggestions as far as what bikes are good for beginners? i like these "crotch rockets" but are they too powerful for a beginner?

[lovedrivindude]

a good couple of bikes would be; Kawasaki 250R, or 500R. If you are brave mabe a 600cc. Just about every manufacture makes 600's ie, Yamaha r600, or the more powerful r6. Suzuki GSX-R 600, Kawasaki ZX-6R (636cc) OR ZX6RR (600cc).

[lovedrivindude]

I do suggest nothing over a 600 (636 is o k) for a beginner. 600's are very balanced, light, and fast enough for a beginner. Just remember to take it slow, especially if the are new with new tires. So no sudden stops, sharp turns, untill tires are broken in. There are different styles of "crotch rockets," so let me know if you have any more questions since no one else bothered to help u.

[fatdick]

Nice vid. I willl also agree comic gooks are cool.

As someone wanting to get a bike for the first time, videos like this one are great research tools. Thanks.

[d1skreet]

I do not own a motorcycle right now, but I am looking to buy one. I cannot thank you enough for making these videos. You really made me much more comfortable with the idea of learning to ride a motorcycle. I will still take an MSF course to get my license, but this was a great way to prepare myself for the next steps.

[elpicos8091]

seams very easy , seams just like a manual atv or manual dirt bike.

[John5323]

This video would be much better if the first thing you did was recommend that a beginner take a local motorcycle training course before they get on a bike. And just use this video to get an idea of how things go.

FINEC

[Pugio]

whoooooo...KAWASAKI!

[chrisdantonio88]

wow you made this so much easier for me. i had no idea where and what on a bike.

[flossemd]

Then its realy tricky:-)

[amurphy245]

thanks alot your video realy helped

[Degenerateen]

I've never riden a motorcycle. I liked your video. Informative.

[flossemd]

Theres missing the instruction how to get it on the centre stand, its a little bit tricky.

Good video, I should have something like this befor my first lesson.

[blippo]

cool video

[wcb06]

very nice video , thx a lot

[Anghorn]

I´m planning to buy a motorcycle some day in the future and this video helped me quite a lot. Thaks for the great video.

[orladin]

This was a very excellent video! Thanks for posting it up man! It really clarified a lot of things for me.

[frankysavvy]

Thanks Mordeth, I'm starting to save up for a bike, well a down payment, I'm gnna get one in the spring, and this video defenetly helped give me an idea, as spring gets closer I will probably be asking you more questions but this video was defenetly a good intro, I can already drive stick and I've rode a manual ATV with the same type of transmision. Thanks again mordeth!

[Zero2Fear]

You can add me to your msn. Reply me if you received this message.

[chl123]

hmmm...

[stry125]

thanks again mate. Nice ER-EF ;) thinking of getting the ER6N tho..

[conorpablo]

great video, good for people like me who always wanted a bike and could never afford one.now i can afford one but i'm too scared!!!.thanks!

[fade2blackleet]

I plan on getting my licence/permit for a motorcycle in the very near future, never rode a motorcycle.. and this helped quite a bit.. so.. thanks

[DJNathanV]

RESPECT.

Fantastic work on all of your bike saety videos. Well done, frank and to the point, and full of very good information.

Thanks for posting this, I hope it helps encourage not just new but ALL riders to be more safe.

[BriocheVespa]

HAHA in TAIWAN! i just found that out... im from there too... man i appreciate your effort!

[BriocheVespa]

mordeth 13, i think you took this vid somewhere in asia rite?... or i'm wrong??

just to say you did a good job lol, im interested in bike... trying to talk my way to learn it as well... and wut you did was very clear for understanding^^ props to you dawg.

[Spart2000]

Nice vid! One thing a first timer might want to remember is to put the sidestand up as soon as you climb on, before fiddling with the ignition, gears, etc.

[camer91390]

you seem like a pro to me...

[Prettyboy411]

nice you did it ty

[RHCPfan]

interesting video, nice honors too lol

[wwjerry13]

What?

[wwjerry13]

Damn! That was a (short) hard, fast ride on a big bike! Damn I feel better! The only problem is that when the bike is too big, it really hurts my ass. I end up having to stop riding the big bike, and walk around for a minute. Do you have any suggestions that would help my ass not get so sore, after a long hot, hard and fast summer ride? Thanks.

[madrox4132]

Look into a Corbin seat for your bike, they should make them for whatever you have.

[wwjerry13]

Thanks.

[wwjerry13]

Talk, talk, talk. Stop talking and RIDE! RIDE! Just RIDE! Talking is for pussies! Riding is for real men! Real men ride hard! Really hard! Hard and fast! Fast and hard! Hard and long! Long, hard and fast! Real men like it like that! Real men like to ride it long, hard and fast! Men like to go on hard, long and fast rides! The bigger the bike, the better the ride! Yeah, shut up and ride it!

[v0lt35v]

very nice!

[OliverTK]

Thanks that was so helpful i'm hoping to get a bike and didn't know anything you just told me.

[cycledesign]

Just a reminder to those watching: videos like this are great but always get professional instruction before riding on the street! (MSF course for those in the states) This obviously doesn't mean everyone who doesn't get it is a bad rider, but statistically speaking, you're a hell of a lot worse off if you don't.

[cycledesign]

Just caught the last few seconds. Yeah. What he said.

[seveneb]

Aww yeah, u da man Mordeth

[BertieRussel]

Great stuff thanks!

[JesiahCare]

hey man thanks, i've been wanting to get a bike this will prob help.
