Backing up
A few people mentioned the bike is hard to back up when you are short legged.... this is very true!!! I read about "hopping" the bike on here, I had never heard of it, and it HELPS!!!!
Mash the front brake, and lean the bike forward, as you release the front brake, the front shocks rise up, and give you a boost to back up the bike. It works like a champ!

I have to laugh when some people think there is ONE way to do everything....
Back up the bike however you want..... Bounce it, get off of it, recruit 3 buddies to help, call a tow truck driver if you want.... but to say that is "NOT the way to do it" is dumb and rude - just sayin'
