rmo2008-005-050_a

1. Start

12 m (40 ft) Weave

Once you’re comfortable, try doing
12 m (40 ft) weaves between every

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 SE6 will automatically downshift
if the engine speed drops under 1800
RPMs.

Purpose

– Learn to upshift and downshift.
