1. Start
Tips for Additional Practice
– You can gradually increase
speed as you get comfort-
able to 16 km/h - 19 km/h
(10 MPH - 12 MPH) for the weaves,
but slow down for the U-turns at the
ends.
7) Shifting
When riding, you must change gears
to match the engine speed with road
speed. Lower gears are used for lower
speeds and higher gears are used for
higher speeds, just like on a manual
transmission car or truck.
The transmission will automatically
downshift if the engine speed drops
under 1800 RPMs.
Purpose
– Learn to upshift and downshift.
Directions
This exercise is similar to what you did
before, except now you will be upshift-
ing on the straightaways, then coming
to a stop at the end of each straight-
away. You may want to use the parking
lot aisles for this exercise rather than
riding in the spaces.
7a) Practice Using the Gear Selector
at a Stop
First, while stopped, practice to single
shift between reverse, neutral and first
gear. Then practice to:
– Double shift from reverse to first
gear
– Double shift from first to reverse
gear
– Repeat until you are comfortable.
7b) Upshifting from First into
Second Gear
– In the straightaway, accelerate
until the engine speed reaches
3000 RPM.
– Press the gear selector forward to
shift into second gear. You do not
have to release the throttle while
shifting.
– Once you are comfortable, if space
allows, you can adjust the throttle to
increase speed in second gear.
As you approach the end of the
straightaway, come to a stop:
– Release the throttle.
– Apply brake.
– The transmission will downshift
automatically as the speed slows.
You can also manually downshift by
pulling the gear selector towards
you.
