How to Start a Three-Wheeled Motorcycle?

[StBrooke]

First, insert the motorcycle key into the ignition lock and turn it to the right. Pull the clutch lever with your left hand, and use your left foot to press the rear end of the gear shifter to adjust the gear to neutral (0 gear). Press the starter with your right foot firmly and quickly to start the engine. Pull the clutch lever again, press the front end of the gear shifter to shift into first gear (1 gear). Turn the throttle with your right hand to give it gas, while gradually releasing the clutch lever to start moving.

I've been riding a three-wheeled motorcycle for decades, and starting it is a piece of cake. First, put on the helmet, get on the bike, and sit steadily. Check the engine and brakes—insert the key and turn it to ignite, letting the engine warm up for a while in cold weather until the RPM stabilizes. With the right hand gripping the clutch lever and the left hand steadying the handlebar, gently press the gear shift lever with the left foot to engage first gear. Slowly release the clutch while lightly twisting the throttle handle. When you feel the bike slightly moving forward, maintain balance and gradually increase the throttle for a smooth start. The advantage of a three-wheeler is that it's less prone to tipping over, but beginners should practice on flat ground to avoid stalling on slopes. After starting, immediately glance at the dashboard to ensure no warning lights are on. Before every trip, I also check the tire pressure and coolant temperature—this habit makes long-distance rides more reassuring.
