ok, don't laugh at me.
I don't know how to ride a motorcycle, I just got gifted one:
http://www.royalenfield.com/app/IN/Products/Machismo500.asp
now I am 55 kgs in weight and a tad bit afraid that while taking this thing off the stand, I might end up with a broken knee.
And around where I live, there aernt any motorbike trainers either.
Now the catch is: This bike is India's best and I want to travel 22 kms on it daily, but I dont know to ride it.
So experienced bikers here, please give me some tips on how I can master it within a week or so.
like a training circulum or something.
plz help help help.
and yeah, I have no training partner, I just moved.
so give all the info what does it take to master a motorcycle
its real easy to learn how to ride a bike. if you know how to drive a manual transmission car you can learn to ride a bike very easily. first make sure you have some proper gear to protect yourself. a good helmet, jacket, gloves and if you want some knee pads. and make sure you have someone else with you just in case you do get hurt…always make sure the bike is in neutral before you start it, it is safer when first learning to ride. neutral is in between 1st and second, gears are, 1st gear press peg down a few times till it stops, the rest are up, . left side of handle bar is clutch, right side is front brake, left foot peg gear shifter and right foot peg back brake. start bike, play with the throttle a little to get a feel of how the throttle response is. once familiar with that put bike in first gear. with out gas ease of clutch slowly till bike begins to move forward, leave feet sliding on ground till you get enough momentum to stay balanced, once balanced give a little gas.then shift like a car, pull in clutch press gear up let off clutch and give gas, to stop and slow down, pull in clutch down shift, and use front brake, be careful sum brakes are really sensitive, your front brake will stop you faster then you back one will. when driving at a certain speed you will have to turn the handle bar right to turn left and vise versa. at slow speeds you turn the handle bars left to turn left and vise versa, i learned to drive on a 05 gsxr without any type of experience good luck hope i helped and be safe

The Royal Enfield is a good first bike. Gives you the feel of a large bike, good looks but not enough power to kill you right off.
There is only one way: Go to the Motorcyle Safety Foundation's website for info, http://www.msf-usa.org/

You can take a class on it, or learn from a friend. I really don't think over the internet is the best place to teach someone how to ride a motorcycle.

If you know how to drive a manual transmission car and ride a bicycle, then you can ride a motorcycle. You have to understand shifting in different driving situations first, then balence and braking techniciques. Just practice in an empty parking lot first. getting out of first gear is the hardest thing. Master that first then move on to upshifting and downshifting and braking.
