Riding in first?

A good idea to practice clutch control would be to pop bike in second gear and ride in second in parking lot.
What I mean is, imagine street situation, stop... take off in second gear.

Will teach u an awesome throttle to clutch ratio.

First gear on that bike maxes out at 52kph (indicated....I tried it this week) and its bouncing off the limiter. At 20-30 you're fine it first but it gets very twitchy. How far is work if you can make it there in first gear!? That's a nice short commute!

Anyway just practice in your neighbourhood and you'll get used to it very quick! Be safe and have fun!

Uhm, shouldn't be riding to work if she's not comfortable switching gears.
 
you will never forget how to ride once you learn, its true. like a bicycle once you get the feel you never forget it and it will come back, parking lot riding is good advice without traffic etc,,youll pick it right back up just go slow.every time i think of a female on a bike I fall in love again ;p
 
Wow, I'm impressed. I can't even stay in first gear to go through an intersection :)

That was the hardest part of the M test, not shifting before I get through intersections, lol

Also, not going to say you shouldn't take a class, but youtube has a ton of great videos, should watch twist of the wrist 2.
