Some bikes are difficult to ride at low speeds. Old British bikes are very easy to ride slow. What Rocker says works for some.. I ride slow by slipping the clutch slightly for a few seconds then pull in the clutch and coast a bit, then repeat....I always have my feet on the pegs unless I'm actually stopped...I see riders in traffic with their feet dangling down all the time when going 5 mph...it's a recipe for a fall over in my opinion...
