I just got a motorcycle and I have a few questions (even though I did take a course).
1. When shifting up do I slowly roll on the throttle and slowly release the clutch? Cause the bike kinda stutters or revs, and I wanna make sure Im doing it exactly right.
2.I've seen people drop the clutch and keep driving, how do you do that?
3. When I roll off the throttle to coast, my bike feels like it just drags. It just goes roooommmmm and I slow down hard. But it does not do it if I squeeze the clutch. Is that normal?
The bike is a 2009 Ninja 500
Any other tips you have would be appreciated.
like braking and downshifting,
The class was great, it taught me a lot. It just feels different on the bike I bought vs. the one I learned on. I want to take better care of my bike and not put the engine under extra stress.
4. When down shifting do I hold the clutch in and got 5 4 3 2 1. Or Clutch in 5, clutch out, clutch in 4 clutch in ....etc. i just want my bike to last as long as possible.
