[QUOTE="Bryce R, post: 51510, member: 345"] Since I'm learning on this I thought other may need some ideas. 1. Turn the throttle stop out so they can't sit wide open in 1st. 2. Ride down the road beside them and have them shift to speed up and slow down. 3. Add a flywheel weight if you have one 4. Gear it down while they are learning to shift 5. Always remember to completely gear them from head to toe! 6. Mix your oil thick in a 2 stroke cause they are going to rev the heck out of it. 7. If its a used bike and new to you change all the fluids (Including the fuel) before you let them ride it. 8. Don't push them but rather help them understand why they need to shift. 9. Explain they don't have to pin it in first or second, they can run half the throttle in the next gear. 10. Make them maintain there bike. It helps them understand what is going on and teaches them to take care of there stuff. Guys please feel free to add to this. [/QUOTE]
