HOW TO RIDE<br />
LIKE A PRO! “HOW<br />
TO RIDE A<br />
MOTORCYCLE”<br />
PART 3.<br />
We are pretty sure that you have spent<br />
some time riding by now and there first<br />
thing that is going to cross your mind is It’s<br />
time to ride like a pro!. Therefore, we<br />
decided to release the 3rd (and last part)<br />
of the “How to ride a motorcycle” guide in<br />
order to share with you some useful safety<br />
tips to achieve that.<br />
The most common things that professional<br />
riders do (and you will probably air for) are<br />
the wheelies, cornering, and hitting highspeed<br />
milestones. Here in this guide, we<br />
will take you through some tips that you<br />
need to follow if you are planning on not<br />
ending up in the hospital.<br />
Ride Like a Pro while Performing Wheelies.<br />
The moment you master riding on two<br />
wheels, the first thing that crosses your<br />
mind is driving on a single one (the rear<br />
one for starters). Whether you are looking<br />
forward to impressing other folks by<br />
showing off your skills or you just enjoy<br />
the adrenaline rush, you should keep the<br />
following in mind.<br />
Power Wheelies or Clutch Ones?<br />
There are two main ways to pop off your<br />
front wheel riding. The first is by simply<br />
squeezing the throttle hard enough to<br />
“take off”.<br />
Even though this method is way easier<br />
than using the clutch, however, it’s more<br />
aggressive and gives the rider instant<br />
power.<br />
It’s recommended to study your<br />
motorcycle power and your weight<br />
thoroughly before going for the power<br />
wheelies. Usually, motorcycles with more<br />
powerful engines and high torque can<br />
perform that type of wheelies.<br />
On the other hand, clutch wheelies are<br />
relatively safer. You get more control<br />
during the “take off” over your bike and<br />
somehow can limit the pop off the height<br />
of the front wheel. You simply hold down<br />
the clutch while riding, squeeze the<br />
throttle a little, pop off the clutch and<br />
squeeze the throttle more (voila your<br />
front wheel is in the sky).<br />
Keep in mind that the previously<br />
mentioned steps should take place in a<br />
matter of milliseconds. Don’t push it too<br />
far with the clutch to keep your<br />
motorcycle engine running smoothly.<br />
Both wheelies need squeezing the throttle<br />
while riding at the correct gear and RPM.<br />
There isn’t a specific rule (gear or RPM<br />
number) where you should pop your<br />
people, as motorcycles and riders’ features<br />
are different. Yet, avoid popping the<br />
wheelie with low gear/high RPM (you will<br />
probably flip over) and a high gear/ Low<br />
RPM won’t make the wheel pop (unless<br />
you are that good!).<br />
