While in the theater watching a stupid movie "fear" with my good company, my Uncle John, one of the younger brothers of my father, made me the great favor of going to pick up the bike to the agency to lend to me to home.
Upon returning home, still excited by the output of the night, had almost forgotten the whole thing on the bike ... until I went and saw majestic, proud, brilliant in the center of my room. Visa and MasterCard together could put a price on experience! This was a Friday, if I remember correctly.
The next day I got up earlier than usual and with kid gloves was taking the bike, my beloved black 2006 Suzuki GN125H. It was not long before I saw confronted with the terrible and yet exciting reality
And now how the garment whores!?
...
Well, my dear @ s readers, have you lucky that I already have taken the scares and tricks for you to advise you now. then proceed to discuss the details of "how to turn the beast without dying in the attempt." Or maybe it is more appropriate to say "turn the Beautiful", the "Beast" is one at first, ha, ha, ha!
sure to be in a spacious and safe to use protective gear for practice (I do not go out with the spoken "I pass" because then you're going wrong with soda mentality of "I do not going to happen, I'm a burden to use elbows, knees and the beaches ") and be very careful that no home is usually easy.
For starters, it helps the bike is flat. They say that one is mounted and dismounted from the bike and with the horses, then let's ride on the left, holding the front brake lever (right), to prevent our two-wheeled beast accidentally slip and make us lose balance . That why the left? Simple: if the side pin (left) is extended and the handle is tilted left also we will have two points of support on that side. Besides being the bike leaned to the left, as we pass the right leg over the bike, our left leg will be firmly supported from "the low side of the bike." Les breakthrough that will notice the usefulness of this, most if not super flexible legs, the higher is the bike. Once mounted, keep the pin, straighten the bike and take the handle as if to drive.
It is now reviewing the march is in neutral, something we can verify no matter that the vehicle is on or off: just push the bike a few inches forward (or backward if it is absent) and you move without resistance, we are definitely in Neutral. By way of contrast, the bike can be in any way, that if the clutch handle sink to the bottom, we will create a "false neutral", where you can slide the bike into back and forth though you have been stuck in some way. With that said, this test should be done WITHOUT Neutral pull the clutch all (knob on the left). Moreover, this case reviews with the machine turned on, not just listen to the little green light Neutral ... not always right ... or light can be burned as well.
Then tap to check that the bike has fuel and the stopcock is in the open position (ON) or reserves (RES), or OFF or the dot we serve here. If we are going well so far, the following is make sure the button On / Off Motor, or the big red botonzote el manubrio derecho está en posición correcta. La parte plana del botón tiene que indicar hacia el símbolo del círculo completo, para luego girar la llave hacia la posición de ON del llavín de ignición.
Ahora sí: hora de arrancar! Vamos a oprimir la manilla izquierda, la del clutch , hasta el puro fondo y apretar el botón de arranque (al lado derecho, el que tiene un simbolito de rayo eléctrico) por espacio de 2-4 segundos. Esto de hundir el clutch hasta el máximo va a evitar que la moto pegue un brinco, un "cabezazo", al haber quedado en marcha y recibir el corrientazo de arranque del motor. Nada más imaginen have a BMW or a late model Audi parked in front of the cigar while the bike jumps and luxurious body blows against one of these pikes. Some bikes even come with a device that allows the bike not start unless you tighten down the knob on the left. Now, whether the bike comes with this feature or not, always, I repeat, ALWAYS going to start the engine with clutch to the bottom. Thus, if the bike was running, we're going to notice when going slowly loosening the handle and the bike will want to walk, but having the clutch to the bottom is going to keep us tied to our control.
Several things can happen at this point:
* If you press the button with fear for a short time, maybe the bike is not able to maintain the engine running. As long as you do not let tight for too long, say 5 seconds or more, nothing will happen to the bike by pushing the little button. In the motorcycle carburetors when cold, may need a little help with the throttle grip. If not this works, you may need to use the "choke" or control fuel enrichment. This control, located in different places on the bike and can be a lever or butterfly (check the manual, do not be vague!) Makes it flow more fuel to the carburetor (s) of the bike and the fastest heat up to keep the engine speed. Once this happens, do not forget to turn off the "choke" or the bike will go all upset, as he had filled the tank of "Red Bull" and will spend gasoline degenerate What is to leave the "choke" because at least a minute or two, but can be a little more. Personally, when I have more heat the faster bike and I know I flew out not to be late to work or school, leave the "choke" taken the time it takes me to brush my teeth into a career and return to Quito .
* If after the above as the bike does not turn, and this happens a lot with new bikes, you may be missing regular "minimum" (and at least he is known in Costa Rica), idle (I have seen so they say in Mexico, Spain and other countries) or "Idle / Idle Speed" in English. The minimum is still the optimal minimum RPM (Revolutions Per Minute) to keep the engine running, without actually shutting down. Most of the bikes, 4 times at least, maintain the minimum in about 1500 RPM to be cold. Once the engine has warmed up and the bike has a bit of walking, it is normal that the minimum has risen to about 2000 RPM (but this means that the bike goes to the high minimum and will feel very fast and restless, in which case you have to make adjustments and lower RPM).
* If you let down the power button for too long, as if it were to win a contest you can win the grand prize: melt the electric starter and get ready to pay for an expensive and complicated arrangement (not all the mechanics work While the electrical and I am too lazy to many).
* If the bike is fuel injection, unless the computer is bad, everything is easy: press the button to start and go! The computer of the bike and injection maps are responsible for providing the proper amount of fuel for the engine to the temperature and speed fair.
Now, the bike also the auxiliary system can boot the kick. Especially the motorcycles work and / or 200 cc down, bring the two systems: electric and kick. The kick saved startup is that if we leave the bike with the lights on without realizing it (engine off) and the battery is discharged us, we can still turn on the bike with the starter pin, without pushing sudarnos (not injected applies to bikes, so if you downloaded hopefully have a place to upload or paid roadside assistance service!). Although you can do with the bike up, it's much easier to make this kick start with the gearbox in neutral. Nothing but unfurled the pin, squeeze the front brake lever (right) so the bike does not slide to get the momentum of the kick, we are inclined to the left to hold the bike well with the left leg and heel support on the pin execute a crescent kick, fast and dry, until the bike garment (sometimes it is necessary to maintain the pin to the bottom of the crescent and give hair gas). As a side note, it's good to be careful that the foot does not slip and pin it back and hits us in the shins ... not pleasant to say. If the auxiliary system is in good condition, the bike has fuel and the red button on / off the engine is in the correct position, this should not be complicated. Each bike has its variations and tricks, but overall, this is going to work. Practice makes perfect, so keep practicing safe and responsible! There
me the mole on the road,
R.
