I learned on a Suzuki TU250 and a Kawasaki KLX 250 dual sport on my MSF Shifting gears, especially downshifting, was always difficult for me, given the bulky hiking boots I was wearing Included that the Suzuki had some teething trouble with either the shifter or a sticky clutch, as I found that I really had to heave on the shifter (clutch pulled in) to shift through the gears However, the Kawasaki shifted through all its gears like butter, and the clutch was smooth and featherlight brbrGreat video!

CBT on Friday Only experience on a bike is being a passenger (one time) This really helped - still nervous but more excited now too - thank you!
Comment from : Yatesie

I've got until 26th August and my nerves are kicking in now and I've got till end of next month so safe to say I've got plenty of time yet
Comment from : DynamicAFK

Excellent video Exactly what i needed I feel a huge boost in confidence in getting started now
Comment from : John P

This is a great video and I have learned a few things that made me even more confident about riding, I’ve been trying to see how he operates the clutch whilst looking at how much mph he is going (but I’m having trouble seeing when he’s holding and fully releasing the clutch) but what a great video!!!

excellent tutorial Thanks :)
Comment from : Tad Barker

I’ve passed my test a couple month ago luckily but I’m viewing this now because I’ve never known what to do slowing down with the gears etc it’s like my instructor didn’t really care as long as I was safe and not bothering other road users hence watching this

Thank you

Here I am swatting up ahead of my CBT next week and I see AFCB in shot! Great video and hello fellow Bournemouth chap!
Comment from : James

That's a mistake that I've been doing, not letting off the throttle when changing gears I'm needing more practice Your video helped a lot
Comment from : SleepyRasta420

I've been looking for a clearly broken down video like this so thank you, also nice to see my local area of Bournemouth so the exact roads I'd use

💌 Too bad , cannot find Part 4 😢
Comment from : Ping An

💌 Many thanks for your sharings , I am going to watch Part 4 🤗🤗🤗 💝💝💝
Comment from : Ping An

Great video, better than many quick fire CBT courses no doubt But i'm surprised more people don't just do the DAS on say a powerful Auto Honda So much to think about as a beginner to biking, gearing down for every junction Arguably much safer with just twist 'n' go, not having to worry about stalling or skidding at roundabouts As you say, many of the 125 manuals don't even have rev counters or even show you what gear you're in It feels sketchy!
Comment from : Janet_Bristow

Damn, this video makes it sound so simple! Will be watching the rest of the learning videos before I get my CBT and bike sorted!
Comment from : Kane Smith

Is it possible too just stay in like gear 2
Comment from : Tayshon Carroi

Comment from : Nick Hutchinson

Comment from : urm ah huh

Quality video mate thank you
Comment from : session Whiteman

Can you let out the clutch quickly when changing gears with anything higher than 1st? Like in a car?
Comment from : Andrew Taylor

i been driving cars for last 30 year but now moving on to bike due high fuel costs i find gearing down 4321 was awkward now i skip few depending on speed seems to be better
Comment from : holly may

I've been worrying about gears for ages , you really explained it well, but just clarify, when you go up quickly from say 2 to 5, can you hold clutch in one and go 2 3 4 5, or do you have to let the clutch out fir each gear you go up?,
Comment from : STARKEY75

Hi could you tell me how I would get back into first gear whilst stationary if I had to perform an emergency stop whilst in say 4th gear?
Comment from : fineloon72

Currently 1:30AM and I have my CBT at 8:45AM it’s safe to say this video has put my nervous to rest, I feel a lot more comfortable heading into it knowing a few things, thanks for the helpful video, I really appreciate it! 😊
Comment from : Pox

Great details! However he could be my neighbour… BOURNEMOUTH 🔥🔥
Comment from : Denisdias9

Do you need to use the gears on a motorbike? What are the consequences if you drive just using the 1st gear all the time?
Comment from : Hunter Alexis

Thank you mate very interesting video and very helpful appreciated
Comment from : Danny Lewis

"Dozy car driver" I anticipated you were about to use a different, but still very fitting, "c" word
Comment from : CirclePixel

When you down shift do you pull in the clutch every switch or?
Comment from : Kendall ONeal

Seems so much more complicated than when I drive my car, but I feel like learning to ride will make me a better car driver as well, seems like you’re way more aware of everything I guess you have to be
Comment from : Jack Halford

Shout out from Christchurch :)
Comment from : Matt Johnson

I hear you But I can't see what your doing This didn't help me
Comment from : MIKE Memory

This is such a reassuring video, been thinking about getting a bike for years Going to take the plunge now at 46 Which bike would you recommend I'm 61 and 100kg Will be using it to get to work in Central London Would like a comfortable bike with a bit of oomph for the dual carriageways
Comment from : LondonerE6

Watched dozen of videos on shifting and got confused and scared :) After this video I am ready to go out and take practical lessons Excellent demonstration
Comment from : Levan Shooter Pkhakadze

Once your moving through gears… example first to second… is the clutch still realised as slow as it is when setting on in first? Thanks
Comment from : Dyl Hopkins

Should you not use the engine to help you slow down, if your holding the clutch in your not getting that
Comment from : Billy whizz

I can't wait to get my 125 but I m so nervous I have 0 experience as a rider but I do have experience in skateboarding at list the balance I have
Comment from : SES skateboard TV

Nice one getting a xsr155 in a few days and only ever had a sep through 🤞🏻
Comment from : Kevin Frankham

Awesome video I'll be doing my CBT around this area soon!
Comment from : CaptainAshtro

When you release the clutch after changing gears do u keep it at the biting point
Comment from : ItzLemz

When I change from first gear to second gear do I have to flick the gear changer twice or just one hard flick?
Comment from : R125_Dan

The question is when we have to change gears on 125cc?
Comment from : Fahad - DA

Comment from : Arnold Judas Rimmer

The spot you start your videos is the spot I rode my very first geared bike next to AFCB grounds at Kings, brilliant videos
Comment from : McEwan

I can drive a car, so would it be the same for a motorbike, but with different controls?
Comment from : The Lagging Brit

This is the video I can watch over and over a gain for gear upshifting and downshift because it is well explained and done in a good environment needed to know when to upshift or down shift gears Thank u very much it is of so much help to me who is a beginner

Comment from : Satish Kumar

I’m new to bikes and am doing DA My instructor very good but these videos reinforce what he is saying I’m having a bit of an issue going down to first and find myself in neutral and a REV frenzy when wanting to get going at a junction🙄🤦‍♂️
