get up tp at least 55,( the faster the more stable the bike will be) i stand up throw my left leg over and skim it on the road then while your holding your weight on the side of the tank lift your right leg off and start skiing then just go in reverse to get back on, find the peg with your right leg then stand and swing your left leg back over

good luck

The 1st time i did it off to the side, I couldnt get back up, i almost **** my pants, After a while it will just come natural.. keep practicing..

Who ever said left foot to the left peg,... thats the best was i can advise you to do it..

i still am having trouble getting off the back of the bike do to the scrape bar but, it will come..

Re: Need help skiing??

Sweet, I just started skitching myself!!!! I am going between 25 and 40mph. I am definetly shakey when I get back on. I use my left foot first but it just seems weird because you have one leg crossing the other to get back on. I dont know if thats the right way or should it be different? The major problem I am having is the second time I skitched I went to get back on and I clicked down to first gear and almost fell. Should I be that close to the shifter or what? One guy that I ride with uses his right foot first to get back on and makes it look super easy, but I cant even find the peg that way. Any suggestions on that way? OR is just using your left foot better and easier?
