On a Motorcycle, if I need to slow to turn in the city and I am only in 3rd gear, what do I do? Do I just pull in the clutch and lightly break then come out still in 3rd? Or do I just hit the breaks lightly without pulling in the clutch? Or down shift down to 1st? I imagine downshifting to 1st just to slow when I‘m only in 3rd is needless, but i really am not sure. What about in traffic situations also? If you might have to stop, but aren‘t sure, you might have to just slow down and then keep going. Sorry to seem dumb, I have never shifted before- obviosly. I just want to be safe. Thanks in advance.
