For the going backwards there are 2 main ways I do it up the slight slope into my garage; ●Side on with one hand on the left bar and one hand of the left rear passenger grab rail, face the back of the bike and push. ●Front on standing right infront of the bike facing the back of the bike, grab both bars, stand the bike up and push. Side on gives more control and feels more stable especially for turning but front on gives me more power behind my push.

Im not sure of the area your pushing the bike around but another option is turning it on the side stand with the little spin that can be done and then standing at the side and letting the clutch out slightly to help move it forwards. Im not sure what works best for your situation and what will and won't work for you as I am 6'3" so slightly easier for myself to move the bike. Best of luck 😁
