I‘ve been doing a little research while preparing to get my CA motorcycle license and I‘ve come across many forums with posters advocating draggin the rear brake while feathering the throttle in order to pass the test going around the circle. Does anyone have an idea -based on motorcycle theory- why that would help? I‘m scheduled to take the motorcycle safety course next week, and if I pass I‘ll never have to do the DMV‘s lollipop test, but I‘m still curious what it is about dragging that back break that would make a difference on a rider‘s ability to keep the front wheel inside the lines in the circle. And ideas?
As you requested 6 hrs in the past i'm likely too previous due yet end ! That web page describes, (once you get into the abdomen hollow area with yer stanley knife ) which of the 4 pendant bits is the Appendix !! in case you bumped off the 2d on the left ! you should be useless !! so ignore about this reaction!! . RIP ! playstation in case you've were given time to position in writing a very last request. am i able to have Yer conflict awl ? ( yer little black e book ? )
Watch any one of the Ride Like A Pro videos. The instructor is a former motor cop and he'll tell you the way you handle a bike in slow speed maneuvers is to ride the rear brake and feather the clutch.
I have not taken this test, but I gather it is a slow speed (just about walking pace) manoeuvring test, which I have done. When you are trying to keep a bike in a straight line at walking pace you are hovering between stalling and slowing so much you put your foot down (I assume that would be a failure) and going too fast to perform the required actions. The smaller and lighter a bike is the easier this would be to do. You can do this by juggling throttle and clutch – but this takes experience and is not a skill that a novice will have to hand, as is applying the front brake while keeping a constant throttle. So the rear brake is used to modulate the speed while the clutch and throttle is kept almost constant – it separates the controls to three limbs. I would expect the biggest failure rate to be caused by riders looking at the route a few inches in front of the wheel – but that is too late at a slow speed, any compensation could put you out of the route or put your foot down, you have to look further ahead, turn your head to look where you want to go. btw google moto gymkhana if you want to see some amazing skills for tight “slow” turns.
Peachie is right.low heat setting for chiffon. I've found that if you iron it straight from the wash (while still wet) the wrinkles come out better.
