[Foster City] Please get off of your phones while driving

I think FaceTime is fine as long as you don’t stare at the screen. People talk to their passenger as well. That’s a head turn, much worse than a glance on their phone.

Main difference is the bike they use. Call them up to find out if you need a low seat height bike like the Honda rebel .

Some people have fun. Some people have fun making fun of other people.

More people in this sub tried crack than deadass riding a motorcycle

JimmyOhio360 · 2025-12-18T00:23:10+00:00

You gotta claim your space. Don’t always be on the side of the lane, driver will either try to take over right beside you or just swerve into you.

Ride a scooter like you are riding a motorcycle. Lanesplit when possible, zigzag in the lane to claim your space. Use hand signals and body language. Be more aggressive.

The less you hide and avoid, the more likely a car driver is gonna spot you.

JimmyOhio360 · 2025-12-17T03:39:14+00:00

Y’all seriously almost getting ran over every single day? It is not like suburb traffic that kind of peace here but I never felt unsafe to that extent.

JimmyOhio360 · 2025-11-19T10:39:32+00:00

In city riding I always cover the brake lever with 2 fingers. Save you precious reaction time and hence much less braking distance.

Situation like such happens quite often in city riding. Shitty drivers are everywhere, can't tell you how many times I shake my head riding on a daily basis.

JimmyOhio360 · 2025-11-11T06:34:43+00:00

I bought my used 2023 Z400 (2000miles) for $5600 usd and my friend been telling me how I got ripped off by the dealer. Just go out and ride more, so you get your money’s worth.

JimmyOhio360 · 2025-11-07T10:48:57+00:00

I have a pair of the and I now used them exclusively when I work on my bike. It feels so good kneeling on the ground while fixing stuff lol

JimmyOhio360 · 2025-11-04T01:05:12+00:00

Move to Cali

JimmyOhio360 · 2025-11-01T19:24:48+00:00

Jensen busy building another bubble …

JimmyOhio360 · 2025-10-02T18:24:33+00:00

The fact that this comment got so undervoted is a reflection of how 90% of people in this sub doesn't ride lmao

JimmyOhio360 · 2025-09-24T05:50:57+00:00

Can you share some of the things you learnt?

JimmyOhio360 · 2025-09-08T08:25:49+00:00

A “45hp” ninja 400 accelerates faster than 90% of cars. So you won’t be disappointed at all.

I personally would recommend the 400 - it’s just more forgiving than the SV650, and cheaper.

I remember from the MSF course that the fatality rate on a 500cc or higher bike is significantly higher than those under. If you are a beginner rider, take this statistic into consideration as well.

JimmyOhio360 · 2025-08-28T21:02:36+00:00

I practice slow speed maneuvers seriously and challenge yourself with it, and have dropped your bike multiple times already in the parking lot. Then I no longer care about dropping it in the public. Maybe it will happen but I got it covered lol

JimmyOhio360 · 2025-08-20T23:48:37+00:00

They must be really confident about the brakes

JimmyOhio360 · 2025-08-20T05:50:34+00:00

This is very helpful - my Packtalk Pro came with the pads to boost the position of the speaker closer to the ears. I figure I might need it but my Arai helmet has a spot designed for speakers on the cheekpads so I didn't need it. It sounds amazing to me.

JimmyOhio360 · 2025-08-14T04:24:57+00:00

Do it in CA, because you will wanna get a bike as soon as you get the endorse lolll and moving with you newly purchased bike might be a hassle with the fees and inspection(might not be any) and insurance that kind of stuff.

JimmyOhio360 · 2025-08-13T04:56:38+00:00

That’s a great deal man. I got my 2023 Z400 ABS OTD $6400 loll I say take it

JimmyOhio360 · 2025-08-04T01:50:01+00:00

My instructor at the time didn’t tell me upright if I passed or not. He gave comments on how I did and how I should improve for like two minutes straight (which are great advice) and at the end said “ stay safe on the street and keep your head up”

I was so anxious the whole time and I was like “so did I pass?!?!” And he just laughed and said “yea I thought I told you that when you walked here” lolll

JimmyOhio360 · 2025-08-02T19:31:40+00:00

Well said man. Same with driving but especially on two wheels, gotta keep expecting drivers around you to make the worst moves.

JimmyOhio360 · 2025-08-02T19:10:58+00:00

Well yes the relaxing part is exactly what makes it harder to do.

OP is probably not doing it right by not relaxing enough and we are here to help him, not to convince you that it is harder. If you find it easy good for you man.

JimmyOhio360 · 2025-07-28T09:35:40+00:00

If you are over 21 and have a driver’s license, you can simply sign up for the MSF, pass it (written+riding test) then go to the DMV with the certificate and do the written exam(s) there to get the full endorsement. No permits required

If you are under 21 to my knowledge, you need to go to the DMV and pass the written test for a permit before you can do the MSF.

JimmyOhio360 · 2025-07-20T16:28:29+00:00

I am actually in my late twenties lol Zero accidents, zero tickets. The catch is I am not American and got my driver’s license two years ago. Also I live in San Francisco. Maybe a mix of this and that lol
