Are you doing this on your FLH or the Sherco? Older bikes with less travel and shorter wheelbase can be challenging. The modern bike should be able to simple roll over the tracks. Keep your weight back and your knees loose so the bike can come up to you when crossing the rails. Best to ride straight across, not at an angle.
Not the FLH...yet!
It's not just a ride-over as the tracks are just the right distance apart the both wheels hit at the same time.
I always think the way is to carry the front wheel over the first and hold pressure when the rear wheel hits so the front will come down past the second one.
Those little buggers are sharp and under cut and the front always seems to slam down early.
I also think it's because I've blown it so many times and there's the extra added pressure that I'm trespassing on active rails.
I'll have to find some abandoned ones and practice where the stakes are lower.

OUCH!
I've never ridden one...sure would love to try.
As an aside...there's a guy near me with dozens of 2-stroke bikes in his barn and he's sort of the local 2-stroke guru/wacko.
He's been known to wear a t-shirt that says "Valves are for toilets"
