Also, it is very important to mount from the side that you are on. Never, never, never try to mount the bike from the left if, in fact, you are on the right. :1eye:

I take a running leap onto the seat from directly behind the motorcycle while screaming "kaloo kalaaah!" This obviates the left / right mounting conundrum.

I mount my bike the same way I like to mount other things

"from behind"



I take a small run up, then using the seat like a pommel horse, I launch myself up and over landing precisely where I need to be.


I recommend this method to you
