  • I thought at any moment he was going to drop the clutch and burn some rubber! ;-)

  • That'll be my next video. =)

  • nice maneuvers. Even experienced riders need to head out to an empty lot once in awhile to practice this stuff. You could almost do the box a couple of times. I think you were going too fast to stay in the lines.

  • Yeah, as soon as I slowed down and used the comment Jerry left below, it was no problem. Consistency is the hard part, sometimes I clear the box with a foot to spare, sometimes I miss it by two feet... it's all mental though, gotta get my head under control if I'm gonna do it with parked (or moving) cars that close.

  • how tall are you?the bike looks so small :)

  • i'm taking my riders licence. the driving school has the shittiest bike... it's very unbalanced, cruiser style, very weird riding position and i don't like to ride it at all! i've been saving money for my licence for months and i'm trying to get my dad to buy me a motorcycle but i'm afraid i don't really like to ride. did this happen to anyone else? could this felling be because of the bike i'm practicing on?

  • :-)

  • Buy a proper bike with proper pegs and you wont scrape anything but your tyre edge..

  • Thanks for the comment, that was pretty awesome to know he pointed you to the video. I've been planning to set up some of the exercises from the Police Motorcycle Rodeo video, but I don't want to do that until I put crash bars on, since I know I'll be dropping it a LOT. But, there's no doubt the Rocket can handle it. I reach my own limitations long before the bike's... still trying to be the boss of this hoss!

  • I ordered the "Ride Like a Pro V" and "Ride the Dragon Like a Pro" combo the night before last. Maybe I'll be posting some video of me doing this on my Rocket III Classic soon. I had questions about the effectiveness of Jerry's techniques on a bike with the Rocket's unique engine configuration.

    Jerry wrote me back immediately and pointed me here. Pretty convincing!
