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

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.

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.

Two scenarios could happen here.

What is the most popular song that includes the word "you"? Are there any other songs that use "you" multiple times?

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

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.

Are there really people who still believe the Earth is flat?

Did that catch you by surprise?

Scenario 2:

Don’t ride a heavy bike.

Why are terrible, boring art pieces done by famous people worth so much while beautiful pieces done by amateurs are worthless?

What’s the practice?

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

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.

Why are white women so hard to date?

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

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

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

What are the logical reasons against requiring an ID to vote in the USA? If the government offered to provide IDs for this purpose I fail to see why people are against it.

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

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.

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

Is it accurate to say that while Donald Trump has "America First" policy, the Democratic Party has "Other nations first" policy?

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

Scenario 1:

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

Can supporters of gun control explain the purpose behind a gun registry?

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.

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.

Are Indian youths conservative or liberal?

Yes, lock it up.

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

In that case, just pray and repent your sins.

What do you think of the Quora group "It's Ok to Be White" for people who are proud of being white?

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.

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

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

What do you respect the most about Elon Musk?

In this case:

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

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

Do you anal play alone?

Relax.

First, relax.

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

Try to increase your speed before initiating a skid.

Remember that tip on calling a friend?

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

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.
