well, it's kind of hard to teach ya without showing you, but here are a few pointers. First of all the basics..Gas is on your right hand. You have two brakes, the front brake is at your left hand and the back brake is at your right foot. I would advise to not use the front brake unless absolutlely necessary. The back brake is the most important one and really the only one you should worry about. You shift pretty similar as you would on a car. The clutch is the bar in front of your right handle. The gear shift will be at your right foot (near the brake) You just click it up and down with your foot to switch each gear. On most bikes all the way down is first, one up is neutral, two up is second, and so on.Other than that just trust the bike. If your going over rocky terrain or even loose gravel it's easy to get nervous and crash but don't, just hold the handles firm and the bike can take it. Also, don't go anywhere your not comfortable just to be macho...that is how you get hurt. Good Luck and Have Fun!
