Re: gear in the parking lot????

I'm pretty skill-less but I think most people are going to tell you this:
1st gear. Stay slow. You are going to crash so wear some gear.
There is no real best way, just practice practice practice. Don't power in the parking lot, use your clutch. Probably smarter to do staggered stance as well

Handbrake?? If not try to cover your foot brake, 1st gear

Re: gear in the parking lot????

Go ahead and turn it up to 3-4000 rpm to begin with. This will make it less twitchy when starting out. Plus, you will have a better chance of getting off the throttle and learning to rely on the brake. I like 3,500 best myself but that's on my 636 geared -1 and +6 in 1st. Yours may be different b/c of your gearing.
