2 Answers
Riding steps for a manual motorcycle: 1. Press the electrical switch of the motorcycle, the dashboard lights up, and start the vehicle; 2. Hold the clutch on the left side; 3. Step down on the gear shift lever; 4. Slowly release the clutch; 5. Twist the throttle backward to start driving. A motorcycle is a two or three-wheeled vehicle driven by a gasoline engine and steered by handlebars, consisting of five parts: the engine, transmission system, running gear, steering, braking system, and electrical instrument equipment. The motorcycle's engine is a two-stroke or four-stroke gasoline engine, cooled by air, with two types: natural air cooling and forced air cooling.
Riding a geared motorcycle might feel a bit complicated at first, but once you master the basic steps, it becomes really enjoyable. When I first started, I would sit on the bike, make sure the engine was off, then use my right foot to press the rear brake to prevent rolling, and grip the clutch lever with my left hand. After starting the engine, slowly release the clutch lever while gently twisting the throttle, and you'll feel the bike start to move forward. Remember to shift gears: put it in neutral when stopped, and while riding, use your left foot to press the front gear to slow down or shift to a higher gear—always remember to pull in the clutch before shifting. When turning, slow down and shift to a lower gear in advance to maintain balance. When stopping, first apply the brakes and then turn off the engine. Practice often in an open area to get a feel for it, and once you're used to it, you'll be able to ride with confidence.
