Motorcycle Safety & Driveability: Stalling.., msf course, how to ride a motorcycle


Question
Hello.
I was wondering is it bad for your motorcycle if you stall certain amount of times?
Its been 3 days since I bought my R6 and I stalled quite a few.. I was wondering if its bad..

Answer
Don't sweat it. The worst it will do is run down your battery.

However, if you're new to riding and your choice of a first bike is an R6, you should probably go take the MSF course. Seriously. Call 800-446-9227 to find a course near you. Also, buy and read the book "How to Ride a Motorcycle." You'll be glad you did (both).

Good luck, be smart, ride safe, know your limitations.
