I ordered the video before I took delivery of my first Harley. I have been riding for more than thirty years and still found the video to be well done and very helpful. Going from an import that weights 300lbs less I wanted any advantage I could get and watching the video made the transition much easier. My riding buddy who rides an import was suprised that I could take to the bike so well, I told him about the video and how the tips and instructions really work. An 1100 import is a different animal comapred to the big Harley, I think the video is a must have.

Excellent video and well worth every penny. Learn even half of those skills and you will make your friends look like amateurs. No better feeling than making a tight U-turn in restaurant parking lot....

I look at it all year long! Now with no riding is the best time to learn something new! Good stuff.

Well, I ordered #5 today. Will find out in a couple days. I think it's a great system he teaches from my earlier DVDs but can always learn some more.

Came in the mail yesterday and watched it last night. Look forward to getting my bike in the spring and practicing the described techniques. BTW, good job to the Ride Like a Pro shippers for knowing to use USPS when dealing with Canadians. I hate those UPS/FedEx brokerage fees!

I just placed my order. Now I don't know if I'm more excited about getting my new Harley (this weekend, I hope) or the RLaP dvd. New bikes are awesome, but riding well is the whole point.

I did go thru Volume 5 and it's like Motorman says, it has everything the former volumes had so you can start with that one and be as proficient as somebody with the Learn to Ride the Easy Way and other 3 RLAP videos. Good stuff and better photography than earlier ones overhead views of the patterns, etc. Highly cool! And Motorman charged me only $29.95 vs 35.95 since I mentioned I got the info from HD forums.
