What do you do you do if your motorcycle chain snaps while riding on the highway?

Don’t try to squeeze the clutch either, nothing you can do about it. So don’t even try to change gears, but I do understand that sometimes it’s a force of habit.

Now that you have learned it. The muscle memory should kick in once the scenario calls for it.

The thing is, your rear wheel will lock up, and you’re skidding and fishtailing, and all sorts of things.

Yes, lock it up.

Learn it with a mountain bike, or even a BMX. Or a smaller displacement bike.

Look at your side mirrors, and check for possible overtakers behind you.

Anyway, depending on your speed you can still control that skid.

What’s the practice?

Now, do the skids as many times as you can. Make skid marks, and do a full cornering drift. Anything, really, and just have fun with it.

This is where practicing some skids and drifts would come in handy.

Relax.

Turn on your flashers, and signal to pull over to the right. Use your right hand if you need to.

Why is social media so anti-fee speech, and have they become total BS?

You can only do this up to 20km/h. Anything faster than that, you’re just calling for another more fatal accident. But hey, I’m not saying it’s impossible.

Two scenarios could happen here.

In this case:

And at this point, you really can’t do anything about whatever I’m going to write here. What it will take is some practice and muscle memory.

You just quit twisting the throttle, you can’t do anything there anyway.

On varying speeds, start with 10 km/h. Purposely lock up your rear wheel.

The chain got jammed between the swing arm and the sprocket, or Anywhere for that matter.

Scenario 2:

On an empty road, much easier if it’s some kind of rough road. Some dust, rubble, or even sand could make the practice easier. Actually, sand would make it hard if you don’t have enough power.

Why do men love swallowing more then women? Is it just because women just don't try eating CUM? they be missing some delicious CUM.. Life is short and women are missing out of lots of enjoyment..

Don’t ride a heavy bike.

And at that point, depending of your speed, you also need some kind of luck.

So I had to push him. The same way is shown in the picture.

Is it common for Americans to feel "trapped" due to the size and distance of their country from other countries/continents? Is this feeling an exaggeration or a reality?

If you have an extra chain, I assume you know how to fit a new one into your bike. Do it. If not, call a tow truck. Calling a friend is exciting too. I’ll tell you why in a moment.

Remember that tip on calling a friend?

Going back to your scenario 2, your rear wheel is locked up. Relax, and let your muscles remember what to do.

Why do trans people get so deeply offended when a stranger misgenders them, especially when it's a first encounter? I've been socially transitioned for 4 years and it just feels like a waste of energy to be so hurt by it.

Scenario 1:

In that case, just pray and repent your sins.

The guy on the left is the one with a working motorcycle, he’s the one pushing the other guy.

Why cant I sleep? When I'm about to fall asleep, I get excited that im about to sleep, causing me to wake up again. It repeats till my sleepiness is gone. I tried taking melatonin and not using my phone, but I end upawake for hours.

Now, increase the weight, try it on a motorcycle.

You’re speeding at 100km/h on a worn-out chain? It’s kinda your fault really.

Try to increase your speed before initiating a skid.

First, relax.

The chain flies away, and your engine doesn’t have a connection to the rear wheel.

Did that catch you by surprise?

Focus your gaze up ahead, look as straight as you can. There’s no point in looking at your skidding tire. You can check your mirrors, but the action of skidding itself is warning enough for the other people following you. Unless they are blind, then you’re dead.

I remember doing this once with my friend. The exact same thing happened to him. His drive chain just snapped and quit, and his rear wheel locked up.

Use both of your brakes to slow down, and finally pull over.

This could be tiring, but it’s doable. And you need to have a strong leg.
