Been a productive day Very Happy

Had to remove the rear brake as its on a shared bias with the front and got jammed on Shocked

soooooo

Been getting very good at keeping the front in the air and it only goes down now at the end of the gears which is allot better than on the cbr ( even with a rear brake)

Anyway so wheelyed along and let the front down to go around corner ( i know wheelying towards a corner wasn't genius) and i got like throttle bounce as i came down Shocked

so grabbed the front brake (with some throttle still on ) and managed to just about mount the curb and stop !!!! was like well impressive Rolling Eyes

any ideas on how to stop this i was going to add some more slack to the throttle and a more positive off

Anyway so rolling stoppys i still trying to get the hang of Embarassed

Anyone who knows how the hell do you get the back end to stay straight??? every time i feel it come up it seems to be going sideways a bit and i have to drop it???? am i doing something wrong

laters
(ps this new bike was supost to be slower so safer ?? LMAO)

Sounds like you're having your fun! I can't seem to wheelie though......... it makes me feel so baaad Embarassed

Would welcome some insight into the world whelies & stoppies.

To be honest though, I'm a bit too chicken Shocked

at the moment to "rev the t*ts off" of the bike to get her nose in the air, as a mate at the local bike-shop suggests

ok, rolling stoppies, if youve got the end up and it starts to go to the side, counter-steer, if it goes to the left, steer slightly to the left, just keep doing tiny adjustments. also grip the tank with your thigh's, arse slightly off the seat and have a rigid upper body, keep looking forwards, not down.
hope thats helped

will
