IMPORTANT: It is important to guide the bike on a straight path for
1-2 feet after the engine starts. This is to stabilize the bike and continue it
on a straight course.
TIP: If you are having trouble making the bike go straight without
falling over, try using the wheelie bar. The wheelie bar helps to
balance the bike. This is similar to training wheels on a bicycle.
Note: With practice, your runs will become straighter and longer
and you will no longer need the assistance of the wheelie bar.
