IMHO, if you've ridden even a short amount of time this should be a non-issue. Riding on as many have said is like riding down your driveway. VERY easy. Backing off is almost as easy just a different process. When backing off have the bike not running and in 1st gear. Use the front brake and clutch to slow you down and creep backwards with both feet down. I never even tried to use my back brake as it would take one foot off the ground. The only part that you have to be deliberate and confident about is at the bottom of the ramp. When the back tire is on the ground a couple of feet back from the ramp and the front tire is still up on the ramp, unless you are VERY tall, your feet won't be able to touch. So, you have to just roll through it balanced. Granted it's scary the first time but never again after you succeed.
