I’m Chris Kelley and we are here with Expert Village. Out there if you are going to do some riding into a jump or up a small jump, maybe just a small little hill or up certain stairs. If you are trying to do a certain riding like stunt riding which you need to maintain a great ability of control, you are going to want to be able to work the clutch. You are going to be able to work that clutch so that you have the power when you let it out you can bring up that front wheel. That is a good exercise to work on is to do on flat ground way of space, try to just let the clutch out and try to give yourself a little bit of wheelie. When you are on the power and you are going to ride into any situation where you have an abrupt jump in front of you sometimes if you can bring that front wheel up just six to eight inches or so, that will lift you up enough to where the front wheel can go into that and you can bounce over it or bounce up on it. Because if you are going to into something that is a square edge, sharp hole and you drive right into it, sometimes your front wheel is going to want to dive down in it and it will want to send your front tire down and kick your rear tire up.
