the hardest thing for me to learn which I’m still perfecting is learning proper gear shifting. For example when downshifting I learned the hard way that its not a good idea to downshift from 5th directly to 1st if i’m not coming to a complete stop, that I can downshift to the next gear provided I’m going slow enough and just roll onto the throttle. I realized I was doing something wrong when one day I go to downshift and my bike super -revs and my bike tire starts to skid..yeah I about crapped myself then and needless to say I haven’t done that again. Also I’ve learned to trust my bike, not when I’m leaning but when I’m making a slow right hand turn. I have a tendency to hold on to the clutch and let off the throttle a bit until I clear my turn..but everything is a work in progress.
