What gear should a beginner motorcyclist use when going downhill?
1 Answers
Beginner motorcyclists should use 1st gear when going downhill. In 1st gear, without giving throttle or pressing the clutch, the inertia force will provide auxiliary resistance, which helps control the speed. Motorcycles are two-wheeled or three-wheeled vehicles powered by gasoline engines and steered by handlebars. They are lightweight, flexible, fast, and widely used for patrols, passenger and cargo transportation, as well as sports equipment. Broadly speaking, motorcycles can be categorized into street bikes, road racing motorcycles, off-road motorcycles, cruisers, and touring bikes. A motorcycle consists of five main parts: the engine, transmission system, running gear, braking system, and electrical instrumentation equipment.
