Again, the Ride Like A Pro video series is great. This is a video taught by a former wheel officer. Sounds simple, but it does take practice. I've been through our department motor school three different times. Each time I learn something new! The biggest thing to remember is set the throttle at 1200 rpm (when completing slow turning maneuvers). When you want or need to increase speed (movement), simply let out more clutch. Keep the throttle set. As you turn sharp, you can keep a steady pressure on the rear brake, but never on the front. With practice, you too can ride very, very well. After practice, you can take the Nomad and pull a 180 in two parking stalls... Sounds rough, but you can do it! It's all clutch, throttle, brake... And head and eye placement. Ride safe gang...
