Re: tl1000r

just do what feels comfortable. i learned by foolin around in 1st then when i felt i was ready i moved on to clutching up 2nd. 2nd is alot smoother you can go longer and it wont slam down as hard as 1st.




edit: also check out the" how to wheelie the right way" sticky thread alot of useful info in there

I ride them in 2nd. I either bring them up with horsepower by rolling it on to 6k rpm then letting off and then ripping it or I clutch it up in 2nd by rolling at about 25mph then pulling the clutch in with just my index finger, revving it to 6500 rpm and dropping the clutch. It comes up nicely and I ride second gear to redline. I stay seated. Gotta work on standups next.
