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

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

First, relax.

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.

Scenario 1:

Did that catch you by surprise?

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

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.

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

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

Is it sinful for Christians to look at beautiful women?

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.

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

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

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

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.

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.

Republican Trump is a billionaire, president, won't be held accountable for multiple felonies, and pretty much has whatever he wants. So why is he always whining and crying about stupid, pointless stuff? Is he incapable of happiness?

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

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

Try to increase your speed before initiating a skid.

Have you ever had a bad gut feeling about someone and it was right?

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

What’s the practice?

Yes, lock it up.

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

Two scenarios could happen here.

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

Why isn't bestiality illegal in most states? If children can't consent, then animals DEFINITELY can't consent. Why is being a pedophile a crime but zoophilia is not?

In that case, just pray and repent your sins.

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

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.

Did Leonardo da Vinci paint two Mona Lisas? Where are they?

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

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

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

Why did Donald T**** post on Truth Social (9-15-2024) that he "hates" entertainer Taylor Swift?

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

Don’t ride a heavy bike.

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.
