99.9% of the time the left handle is the clutch. You shift gears by lifting the left pedal up or pressing it down. The right handle is the front brake and the right pedal is the back brake. You apply gas by twisting the right throttle grip.

Some customs have clutch pedals and hand shifters known as suicide shifters. Also some British stuff is left foot brake and right foot gear shift. But these days its all the way described it in the first place. Start in the dirt. It hurts less to fall and costs less to repair than the street.

riding a bike is easy..just remember these simple things
*left leg -shifting (most jap bikes)
*right leg- rear brake ( who needs em =x)
*3rd leg - for the passenger to hold onto during hard acceleration
*right hand-throttle/front brake/starter button,kill switch
*left hand - clutch, flicking people off, scratching *****,picking wedgie during long rides, feel up on the passenger's legs and butt
left nut - stand up wheelie meter ( biggger ur nuts...longer the wheelie)
right nut - endo meter ( bigger yo nut is..longer and higher yo endo's gonna be )

master these things and you too can be a seasoned rider....now go yung grasshoppa...and may the force be with you...

just remember these few steps and you'll be fine:

1) Lock up the Front Brake Whenever Possible
2) PULL on the THROTTLE hard all the time
3) Look the opposite way of where you're turning
4) Never look over your shoulder before turning
5) Always go through traffic as fast as you can
6) When a car pulls in front of you, speed up, he'll move
7) When Riding a Passenger, INSTRUCT them to look the opposite way of where you're turning, and have them COUNTER your every move
8) Cops are impressed by wheelies, so pull em up whenever you see one
9) You can outrun any cop, so never pull over for them
10) When you see big bumps, speed up, but loosen up your grip, while keeping yourself firmly planted in the seat

with these 10 key tips, you'll be on your way to becoming a great rider

oh yah...and you're senses are way up when you drink alcohol, so try to ride buzzed or plastered, you'll be amazed w/ the results...

its been known throughout the grapevine that Dr Park was doing some fat chick on his bike when her over sized heavy weight *** crumpled the kickstand and brought the both of them crashing down on top of the bike. He didnt meantion the fact that she broke the rearset, the mirror { when she checked her makeup} and crushed the xhaust can when her left boob smacked it when the bike fell...poor aprilla...So everyone learn from Dr Park....dont feed the aninals meat.

it was worth it once i found the hole through all the rolls of jelly n' custard filling..

by the way, GSX-R Mommy, did you notice the bruises when she came home? or is it dis-respectful to stare at your parents?

I win!!!!!
