I think for me the weight of the bike might be the main issue. Today im back on the big bike again, hopefully it will go smoothly as well.

My friend helped me pick it up, then I got on and dropped it on the other side... but I did learn after a while. She'll get it.

WhoDunnIt | September 21st, 2006 at 12:18 pm For a training bike, y not? Better get used to the 180cc first. Let go off the clutch too fast on a big bike and u’ll wheelie off backwards. I once saw a 1st timer learn the hard way… he gave the road a fresh layer of skin. That was a comment on ur blog about ur 180cc Kawasaki-Bajaj Pulsar. And Nat, hang in there girl, you'll get the hang of it soon! Cheers! The proverbial “I told you so….”

If you have some doubt clarify it right away with your instructor and then make sure you start of with a peace mind. You can really do it... it is matter of combination that you need to put together. Same thing for Nat and don't panic at no situation, if one panic's then he/she is out of control, you will loose all your confidence. So I recon a quick valuable moment is great to have. All the best for your future classes. :) Mark n Nat, it is all in your mind before getting read for a ride while you practise, please take a quick valuable moment think about all the operations of the bike, just refresh the mistakes or mishaps from last classes, what to do and what not in what situation.
