PART 2
Mounting/Dismounting
Have your youngster wear safety gear whenever
getting on a motorcycle. This action will stress the
importance of safety gear and help develop safe
riding habits.
Mounting is typically from the left side. To mount
from the left, point the handlebars straight. While
squeezing the front brake lever, swing the right leg
over the seat and place the right foot on the ground.
Both feet should be in contact with the ground while
sitting on the motorcycle. Dismounting reverses the
procedure: the kickstand is placed fully down. With
the left foot on the ground, the handlebars straight
and the front brake lever squeezed, the right leg is
swung over the seat and the foot touches the ground.
Correct riding posture helps your youngster
operate the controls. Proper straight line riding
posture includes:
• Head and eyes up, looking well ahead.
• Shoulders relaxed, back straight.
• Elbows bent, slightly out and away from
the body.
• Hands on the handlebars.
• Knees in toward the tank.
• Feet on the footpegs, toes pointing
straight ahead.
The hand and foot controls are important to
riding safely. While riding, both hands should
be kept on the handlebars and both feet on
the footpegs of the motorcycle. Removing a
hand or foot can reduce the ability to control
the motorcycle.
An off-highway motorcycle rider will need
to shift body weight in certain situations. This
is especially true in maneuvers such as turning,
negotiating hills, and riding on bumpy terrain.
Your youngster should be able to operate the
controls during these maneuvers. Now is a good
time to make sure your youngster can reach the
controls from different body positions. Have the
youngster remount. Turn the handlebars full left
