Hello YouTubers! A special hello to my fellow PRELOADERS! For those of you that aren't PRELOADERS yet, hit that subscribe button and become one. This video covers Practice session #13 which included the largest amount of riders to attend one of my practice sessions! I want to apologize for the wait. I had some serious editing issues and with a video this long, everything takes much longer. As frustrating as this process was, I wasn't going to stop until I got it out to my PRELOADERS. So I hope you enjoy it and most importantly, I hope you get something from it that will help you in your quest to be the Boss of your motorcycle!😊👍🏾 You may be asking yourself, who are PRELOADERS? PRELOADERS: Subscribers to this channel who are dedicated to being proficient in slow speed motorcycle operation. What does PRELOAD mean? PRELOAD: Engaging the throttle to raise the RPM’s (revolutions per minute) above idle and holding the throttle there, with the clutch pulled in (no power to the rear wheel, “in reserve” “PRELOADED”). This process will make power to the rear wheel available to the rider immediately when the clutch is opened up. There’s no need for the rider to be concerned with twisting the throttle for power because it’s already PRELOADED.
