on 8/9/2006 To anyone who wants to pull off a manual, don't practice it! To practice you should get off your scooter and lift it by pulling the handle bars. Keep it steady and start walking with it to get the hang of it. Next, as you are riding you should pull up little by little to get the feel of a manual. Practice like I say and you will be manualing in no time!
