Another zhai female rider coming up!

 

Lesson 4 minimum must go 2 times...once for part 1, once for part 2....cannot clear de whole lesson at one time. Simulator no need to wear elbow knee guards or helmet...but if u insist....den instructor also bopian...after simulator go pilloning around the circuit route to learn up the route...instructor will take u around.

 

...Part 2 is mainly pilloning and doing the circuit route...if u ok ok... can remember the route, sure can pass one. (go memorize de route lor after part 1). All de best!

i wont b so silly.. to insist wearing the guard lah..

 

is pillioning difficult??

at first u try pillioning... it's difficult.. coz extra load ma.. then need to throttle more.. but normal ppl will stall engine coz throttle open not enuff... thus leading to engine stall... juz remember to open more throttle when u r pillioning compare to riding alone~

 

good luck~

what do you think?

 

if you take the plank on your own, is that easy?

 

pillion meaning an extra weight on the bike + balancing.

 

quite difficult in the first place because

 

1. need more strenght to control the bike

2. need more power to move the bike

3. braking distance become longer

4. need co-odination between rider and pillion to have a better balance

5. need more confidence

 

the good thing od pillion riding is to let you gain pillion riding exp.

anyway, if you out of course or make mistake, its okay 1.

 

pillion riding is not going to be tested. juz wanna let you have the feel of the extra.

its also depend on the pillion sitting location.

 

if sit near to the rider, handle bar will be more heavier.

if sit further from rider, handle bar will more lighter.

 

agreed with evian that grid the fuel tank will have better control of the bike.
