I think we have all suffered the "low income stall-stall" but not to sure about "Shift grasp the meaning of time"?

And just a bit more (the full article) for your amusement... particularly amusing stuff in bold!

The Chinese know how to fuel-efficient driving, motorcycle maintenance is a key issue.

1. Motorcycle cold start after commencement, the question engine running about a minute, Resistance put the handle pulled Full throttle position. Some people like to obstructing a closed door perspective (I am a huge fan of obstructing a closed door perspective... DF), thus the cylinder into the combustible gas mixture protest, causing increased fuel consumption and engine power dropped. Some people will start after the motorcycle started moving, not only fuel-efficient, but also speed up the internal mechanical engine wear.

2. Application start slow starting stalls. Clutch combined ago opened the throttle, to be clutch in a semi-state interaction clutch slowly relaxed, slowly open the throttle. in order to adapt the engine speed and start the calls that motorcycle smooth start. Otherwise launched continuous work, a song that is quenched clutch(a quenched cluch always was music to my ears... DF), repeated several times, a lot of fuel.

3. Shift grasp the meaning of time (No comment needed... this is GOLD... DF), timely shift. Motorcycle start, and if the traffic flow smooth, must quickly followed by the low-income stall-stall. Do not use low-speed stall wallop or traveling long. When the engine power is inadequate, the gradual lowering of the speed (such as uphill), the original stall unsuited continue to be used, we should promptly dropped a low stall, asking not to make the engine too hard (I prefer my engines flacid!...DF). will not use the clutch half and opened the throttle linkage methods to improve speed.

4. Moving will make full use of inertia can also fuel efficient : one is about to stop, not only the use of motorcycle brake inertia, the reduction in oil after running for some automatic parking (How do I obtain this automatic parking? Honda? Anyone?... DF); Another was found in front than the distance barrier, early deceleration free taxiing obstacles encountered when reduced speed, avoid using braking deceleration method of energy consumption engine, it can be fuel efficient.

5. Acceleration will not speed up when the throttle increase in the end. Refueling used by the door, as long as you achieve the necessary speed shall be appropriate not to relax, to avoid the consumption of more fuel. Some people develop a habit of driving : two car bombers (two car bombers? well I prefer 2 wheels... but bombing 2 cars seems excessive... maybe they pulled out on the author? DF) Space oil, get off the air(yeah... damned air junkies... get off the air!... DF) under the H-2 oil, or even replaced with an empty oil loudspeaker (is an empty oil loudspeaker louder than a full one?... DF). This not only increased fuel consumption, but will accelerate the mechanical wear and increase engine noise.

6. Tire pressure reasonable fuel-efficient tire pressure is an important factor driving, motorcycle tires should meet specification requirements. If the air pressure is inadequate, tires will increase due to deformation resistance and unnecessary energy consumption, fuel consumption increases.

...... Could you explain to me why point number 6 is in virtually perfect english? I am confused (DF (Del Fuego))

As hilarious as this is, it is actually a form of "old news" to us old enough to remember that it is almost identical to the japanese-lish that was contained in the manuals shipped with our early Hondas, Toyotas, etc., in the 1960's and 1970's. History repeats itself, indeed....
