some of the new ryders whom I showed how to drive a spyder, have the feeling the steering is not stable - because the hold the handlebars too tight ..
tried to make a "HOW TO " clip - but not really happy with that

Thanks for the video- nice perspective---just worry about you crossing that white line so often. Please be careful so you will live to make more videos! ;)

I'm not a newbie yet since I don't have a Spyder but watching this actually kinda scared me. :yikes:

With you crossing the white line so much, the question comes to mind: Is it that hard to keep in a lane?

Of course, I've been snooping around these forums for a number of weeks so I know better. But if this is someone else's first impression, it might be a bit different than you intended.

Hopefully will have my M endorsement next week and my Spyder soon after...

Why not take down the video and re do without going over the white line since that seems to be the distracting point. I might also suggest to mute the sound and maybe give some instructional pointers like look ahead and not into the turn, keep a loose grip on the handlebars, always be checking your mirrors, or look what potential hazards might be on the highway, vehicle entering etc. Just saying I think this is a great idea for the new riders what you are attempting to do but with a little more it will be great, and you will post your happiness rather than not. :cheers: jmo
