Yep. You'll get more of a feel for it if you're going up a (slight) incline because the bike will be more likely to stall if you don't get it right (I often stall going up the trailer ramp). Start on a level surface, though.

You'll be balancing the bike, of course... lean it oh-so-slightly into your hip so it doesn't fall away from you.

Having met you briefly, I know you're petite. It might feel a bit awkward reaching across the bike for the throttle. You might drop the bike.... if you're worried about that you might want to remove the plastics for this exercise to keep 'em pristine.
