Riding For beginners.
Looking back to when I myself first googled how to drive a motorcycle, I remember all of the results I found and I also remember all the results that weren't useful. I have created this post and website so that I can help those, who were like me, who want answers and want to learn. I eventually found the answer to the question of learning how to ride a motorcycle but it wasn't online, it was through my own trial and error. I have always been a do'er, with that being said I went out and bought my first motorcycle with out knowing how to even drive the thing. It was a Kawasaki 250R, a piece of shit of a motorcycle, not because of the brand but because of the previous owner who did not take care of it.How to drive a motorcycle Once I got the motorcycle towed back to my place, I walked it half a mile to a vacant parking lot and that's where I began. With the little bits and pieces of knowledge I had acquired , I was off. First point to take if you are just getting started is to make sure you know what type of motorcycle you are buying. Especially if that is going to be the motorcycle you are going to be learning how to ride on. Mines had multiple issues, a major on being a rusted gas tank which caused dirty gas getting into my carbs, which in turn caused my motorcycle not starting and me not knowing why (again i was a complete newbie). On top of that the motorcycle did not have a choke switch or cable for that matter, so it was an even bigger headache to start on some days. Moral of the story don't be an idiot like me and know what your getting yourself into. After a couple try's I finally got the motorcycle running, and it was time for me to get on the bad boy and get going. Motorcycle lesson number 2, make sure you have the proper protective equipment. This one I got right, if I was gonna go down , I was gonna go down as safe and soft as possible. Gloves, helmet, jacket , and long pants should suffice for now. I heard plenty of stories of my friends falling of their motorcycles and seen the scars, I did not want to be like one of them. There were a couple things on my mind before I took off in first gear, same things should be on your mind as well. How sensitive is my clutch? I don't want to accidentally pop a wheelie. How sensitive is my throttle? I don't really know what to expect once I pull that thing back. Should I use my front or rear brakes? When turning should I lean or just physically turn the handle bars? I had a friend who had a motorcycle explain the basics to me but i didn't really know to ask all the above questions until i was already sitting on my motorcycle. Would of been smart for me to look up some more information before I got on the motorcycle, but i didn't and thankfully i was cautious enough not to do anything impulsive. So when it comes to the newbie what can you expect? For starters you can expect to be a bit scared at first, that's for certain. Once you get comfortable with learning how to ride a motorcycle, you will realize that the motorcycle is just a machine that you control. So in the beginning you want to take it easy and go slow, I mention this a lot in my eBook which you can find hereStore. Most importantly you want to respect your motorcycle and never try to rush anything. Learn at your own pace, because your life literally depends on it. I have found that there is a general way of learning how to ride a motorcycle. First you want to familiarize yourself with the key components of the motorcycle, such as the clutch lever, shifter, throttle and so on. Next and most importantly is first gear. First gear is the hardest gear to learn because if not done correctly the motorcycle could stall out on you. Nothing to be afraid of there , it just takes a little practice is all. Next you would need to get comfortable with coming to complete stops while in gear. After that you would want to get comfortable with turning and leaning. Lastly is gear shifting. Once first gear is mastered and you have a good understanding of everything else then you can start shifting gears up and down. Overall learning how to drive a motorcycle is not a hard task to accomplish, I learned in a day and mostly everyone I have ever taught have also learned in a day. All it takes is a little commitment, dedication, knowledge and safety and you'll be on your way. I have created an eBook that you can find on this website that is designed for the complete beginner. I go over everything you would need to know before you get on a motorcycle and even after you get on. I am confident that if you follow my instructions you will be well on your way to enjoying the free road out there.
