The next thing to try is to make a turn right after a dead stop with the wheels down. As soon as
you start the bike moving, try a left or right turn immediately by leaning into that turn. You
may find that you have to nudge the bike a little bit more than usual to get the bike to lean, and
you won’t be able to lean as far as you can with the wheels up. Once into the turn, accelerating
will raise the wheels. You will hardly notice the wheels coming up unless you see the top LED
blinking!
The next thing to try is slow speed maneuvering with the wheels lowered. In a straight line on
level ground, you should be able to keep your feet on the floorboards and move the bike
forward at very slow speeds (simulate stop and go traffic). I like keeping my feet near the
ground during these maneuvers! You can also try small ‘Trike’ turns; keeping the bike upright
at slow speed and making turns as you would in a parking lot. Be aware that if you get over the
speed that the legs come up, they will!!! Another thing I like to do is donuts. Start out slow,
lean the bike left or right, and make circles at very slow speeds (throttle on, rear brake on,
clutch slipping… you know like the cops do!). This helps you get familiar with the wheels
being on the springs and allowing a lean angle! Practice, practice, practice!! Enjoy your
LegUp System!
