You must master the brake control first, or you are going to flip. If you scared, practice on a quad. I first learned brake control on a quad, it helps, and you wont trash your bike.

When you are ready to 12, you will know it.

12 isn't something you just, dip back and hope it all goes right.. I mean you can, but thats not controlled...

Get smooth riding balance point, get smooth doing coasters, and when you want, just let the bike back a little and start scraping.

I have a 12 bar on my bike, but I'm starting to dig round bars.. Other then the fact 1 session and I wore through about 1/3 of my friends SI round bar

according to me anything with a cluth can wheelie....(therefore do stunting)....

i second that. i saw my boy popping an '03 ex 250 up like whoa.

when i first went to "practice" i would pop it up,trying to catch idle,well at first,trying to find that spot,i wouldn't be on the throttle much at all,covering the clutch with my finger,and when my 12 bar scraped i just pulled in the clutch and stepped off,standing behind my bike.i had a 60 tooth sprocket so i was hardly moving and the momentum stopped after a foot.i also did not know how to cover the brake so it is only fair to say i learned to rely on engine brake and clutch.probly totally bass ackwards but it worked for me and don't recomend it.
