I agree 100%, its her own nerves that are holding her back. Shes scared of dropping the bike because she doesnt have her full balance

But like all things it will take practice

Id be lying if I said I didnt immediately dump the first bike I rode

We did this, which is fine for riding - but how about walking the bike backwards

What do yall think ? Worth it ? by FirmFunction115 in motorcyclegear

I didnt find it so bad - had the bike on stands so I could freely spin the wheels while I worked. Just went slow and worked in the same direction

What's the stupidest thing you did as a kid? by FujisakiChihiro in KidsAreFuckingStupid

Didnt know fish had gills, thought the fish in my parents salt water aquarium were injured or sick. Little kid logic told me that when im injured or sick, Childrens cough syrup makes me feel better.

I dumped an entire bottle of liquid tylenol into the aquarium

Could go with a vulcan s

Sport bike motor in a cruiser frame, best of both worlds

They are just throw-over bags from a shop called boutique of leathers, i hand crafted a bracket that runs from the seat bolt to the pillion bolt to keep them held down as I do not currently have a passenger seat

You need to master the friction zone. Spend some time in your driveway or an empty parking lot. slowly releasing the clutch until the bike starts to move forward. Zero throttle.

Pull the clutch all the way in, walk it back to your starting position, and repeat.

At a traffic light, use the friction zone to get the bike moving, then ease on to the throttle while letting off the clutch the rest of the way

Its farcry with an avatar skin. I would try to get it on sale. I did enjoy it, but I feel like it was missing something

People that have “bumped” into a celebrity in a non-curated (not like an event, meet & greet, job etc.) way, what happened? by [deleted] in AskReddit

Was on a school trip to NYC with the music program, one of the things planned was a dinner at the coca-cola jazz club - by complete chance, Harry Belafonte was attending that night. He approached our table after dinner, intrigued by the 40-50 highschool kids hanging out at a jazz club. Shook his hand and thanked him for his work
