Pushing the shift panel up with your front end of you foot is second gear, used for speeds up to twenty-five miles per hour. Third gear is located hitting the shift panel up again, used for speeds from about twenty-five to forty miles per hour. Fourth gear is found pushing the shift panel up again and would be good for between forty and fifty miles per hour. Fifth gear is found pushing the shift panel up again, and is used for higher driving speeds such as on the freeway. These gears must be maneuvered the exact same way each time the automobile is driven. ( There is nor reverse on a motorcycle so to maneuver a bike backwards you would set the gear on neutral and walk the bike backwards and position as wanted).
