MMP 02: 5 Things I’ve learned about beginner riders since starting MM.com

In this session of the Motorcycle Mentor Podcast, I share 5 things I’ve learned about beginner riders since I started MotorcycleMentor.com. I bet you can’t guess what they are. I’ve heard from hundreds of beginning riders over the past few years. Do beginner riders experience similar feelings, struggles, and emotions during their first year? Find out in this podcast. In addition, I’ll tell you how to handle Harley riders, how to find the best riders to ask questions, and why the Kawasaki Ninja 250R isn’t the best beginner motorcycle for most new riders. I bet you haven’t heard that before. More specifically, in this session you’ll find out about: Do beginner riders face similar struggles, feelings, and doubts during their first year? Is the Kawasaki Ninja 250R the best beginner motorcycle? Can you reduce your risks on a motorcycle to the same as riding in a car? How to handle ranting Harley riders. Helping a broken-down motorcyclist while traveling with my family in our minivan. Resources and links mentioned in this session: Best beginner motorcycle — from a motorcycle instructor’s perspective (tips from Pete) How to overcome fear when learning to ride a motorcycle (more about riding with fear) Leave feedback or ask a question You can also leave me a voice mail message. I might play your voice mail question during an upcoming podcast. Help the Motorcycle Mentor Podcast And lastly, if you haven’t already done so, would you take a minute to leave a quick rating and review of the podcast on iTunes by clicking on the link below. It would be extremely helpful for the show and I’m aiming for 100 5-star ratings before the end of the year. That would be awesome for a motorcycle-related podcast.
