Care to share ur technique?
-
hi guys, jus wanna know how u guys stop ur bike. Some ppl like to kick all the way down to 1st gear b4 they come to a stop, some never kick, some gear by gear. Some ppl like to kick neutral from 1st gear, some can even kick neutral from 2nd gear, b4 they stop or after they stop
for me, i change gear by gear during stopping, using the engine brakes n both brakes, dun realli like to change neutral at traffic lights, unless very long time...
me always change to neutral from gear1, but now learning how to change from 2nd gear, but mus get used to it..

Maybe I'm lazy, I alway change to neutral b4 i come to a stop. But some of my friz tell me that its not gd to let ur bike roll in netural for long cos it wear outthe clutch plate. But I'm too use to it liao... evengoing to turn grenn soon i also put to neutral.
to get to neutral from 2nd gear is easy.. just clutch in at 2nd gear and give a light tap.

i take a peek at the light on the intersecting street to judge if the light on my side is going to stay red for long or turn green soon.
if it's green soon, just clutch in and wait on gear 1.
if it's going to stay red, neutral.
er as for technique, apply brakes, clutch in, kick all the way down and up from gear 1. i'm riding a cagiva, if i don't find neutral when the bike is free-wheeling as it's slowing down, i'm never going to find it when stationary. weird lar.. typical quirk for the brand.
it's so damn hard getting neutral with the engine on and the bike not moving. once i tap the off switch, there it is...

rock hard... ride free... -
Dropping gears gradually according speed and rpm while applying brakes is the correct way to brake.....but whn i emergency thats a diff story kekeke

hi for me i dont know why but if i change to gear one when the bike is still runing quite fast, the bike will produce crack crack sound... so normally i kick to gear two then till it almost stopping then to one...
as for cornering i will normally down 2 gear to gear 4 then turn... easier and more control cos engine brake. never free gear... cos lost control easily.... but this method more le chey lah... need to switch here switch there... -
"clutch in" and let momentum take you along..Originally posted by subisisniki:whats free wheeling anyway?? i go theory, forget liao
