Back wheel lock and engine revs high?

[RS2MATRIX]

When i go round a corner and ive gone down a couple of gears when i let the clutch back out and rev the back wheel feels like it locks up and the engine races high to high revs. It slows down fast like ive slammed the brakes on.

Im a new biker so any help on how to ride better would be very helpful considering i took my cbt on an auto and have now moved to a manual.

I dont have trouble with riding, just pulling off is a little slow and then im fine. The only trouble i have is changing down gears.

Im not sure if i am changing down too far into first and thats why its happening as i am already still traveling at a speed.

Thanks.

sounds like your going down too many gears for that corner. all so try blipping the throttle

When you pull the clutch in blip the throttle

Also you shouldn't block change... also not doing this would help with you changing down gears to fast.

Clutch in, blip throttle, change down, let clutch out. Make it nice and smooth. Always try to ride nice and smooth.

As you say, when you let the clutch out the revs jump, what you need to be doing is matching your engine speed to what it'll jump too when you engage the clutch.

Becomes second nature with a bit of experience .

How can you ride a geared bike on an auto CBT?

If you`re new to geared bikes...and biking in general...why do you need to drop down so many gears at a corner?and coming from high speed?
The brakes have a purpose mate.

I doubt you`re at the stage yet where you wanna power out of the bends so why don`t you just drop down 1 gear and go round nice and easy?
The roads aren`t race tracks....

There is no such thing as a auto cbt...

One cbt for everything.

my guess is hes on a 50cc and need all the power he can get B_A_B :o

and yes wtd you can jump on a geared bike after doing your cbt on a auto. As for block shifting (more than one at a time) i wouldn't really do that untill your use to the bike and know how many gear to knock it down etc etc.

Ye hes on a 50 speedbike rep a rs2matrix.
and thats definantly shifting down too many gears,
or simply your dropping the clutch out, i get lock ups if i drop a gear at speed and dont feather the clutch out.

One of the first days i had it, went out for a kain, and dropped from 5th to 3rd, back wheel slide on, so nearly felt it kicking out sideways, but got it back straight and hit it up a gear as it was locked, as to try match the speed, although i think blipping works, although dosnt seem to work for me, maybe im doing it wrong meh.

or as your only on a 50, try get your kneedown and power through the corner
i quite often take the turn early and keep on the gas, and it then swings out as if i had took it normally and keeps on the gas

No if you do a cbt on a TAG 50 you can ride a geared 50 or a geared 125.

As DS55 said there is only 1 CBT.

The place I did mine at had 50cc autos for 16 year olds and Suzuki Van Vans for 17 year olds.

A CBT is a CBT. You're not restricted to a style of bike.

Technically if you complete your CBT on a twist and Go, You are only allowed to ride a twist and go.
Well when I took my CBT that was the rules anyway. As it was stated on the "CBT" papers what you completed the training on. Manual or Auto.

Not sure about now.


BUT I did my CBT on a scooter, And at 17 bought a Honda XL125R.
You never get caught. And if you get a producer, you never have to produce your CBT paper. Just the license. Which doesn't say anything on it about what type of bike you passed on.


As for getting lock up on shift downs. You are just dropping down too many gears. I get lock up on the NC29 if I dont blip the throttle while ive got the clutch pulled in, And if I go from say, 4th at 90mph, To 2nd. Still at 80ish mph. Let clutch out and it rings round to almost red line and the back wheel skips about.

However, Its a form of "backing it in", a cornering maneuver. And over time, Rear wheel lock up just feels "right". And looks impressive to other bikers.
Only mid corner though.

Similar to drifting a car.
