damm hows the bike

 

thats why 12 bars helps a lot

 

it happens just ride the brake and slow down little so if it moves around u have little more time! good work falling sucks!

 

sucky.. what are the repairing costs..
at least you didnt get hurt the bike did .. Thats the right way

 

did you used the brake ?? Didn't seem so... Good luck with rebuilding the bike

 

im learning to 12 too, no bar, f4i. similar sort of level to you only im not getting it quite as high yet.. you just gotta keep it smooth.. the bikes only gone a little bit sideways once for me and it was because i was a bit too choppy on the throttle, but it wasnt enough to make me fall off... ive taken a step back again and getting smoother with the brake/throttle before tyring to 12 again.. just gotta take it easy, baby steps.. one step at a time etc.. keep it up, least it didnt look too painful when you fell,now you got a proper stunt bike too :YEAH every stunt bike should have some crash damage.

 

+1 now u got a proper stunt bike. take the plastics off and ball it up.

 

Classic mistake... you can hear rrrrrrright when the bike went left really hard you blipped the gas just a little bit and thats what threw the bike right and rolled over. People don't realize but on one wheel, all that power is at a flick of a wrist, and even a little turn on the throttle will mess you up bad. (as you can see) If you wouldn't have blipped the gas when the bike dropped to the left I'm pretty sure you would have pulled out of it!

Kanes Wheelie 101.... if something goes wrong, get off the gas completely!!!

 

Sorry, one more thing... I'm not raggin on ya, just giving you tips but it looks to me that either (A) you haven't exactly found a comfortable balance point all the way, but you know what it feels like or (B) you are afraid of balance point. B/c both wheelies, before the crash you were accelerating the whole time. The first one was nice and smooth but you were still accelerating, the 2nd one however I noticed that when you did get to balance point you let off the gas and brought the bike back down IMMEDIATELY. This is fine, but you should really learn to get comfortable with that feeling of the bike just falling back on you, and you being able to feather the back brake and pull out of it.

Whenever I pull my bike up, I'm at a dead stop... I bounce, clutch, and goose it all at the same time, bike pops up... catch it on the back brake and then give it a little throttle to start it rolling. After that, all I need are small little inputs on the throttle or brake. If you are going to 12, I highly suggest a 12 bar.

Just my 2 cents and what I noticed, but on the brighter note atleast now you got rid of one of those gay mirrors!!! HAHA jk man! Good luck!

 

damn it man.:YEAH

 

sucks..learning to 12 is fun but the crashes ****....hit the brake harder

 

I guess i did get ahead of myself a lil bit should have just been trying to slow em down or ride at a steady rpm before going for 12 fu<k it!:YEAH .

Damage: the front frame bracket snaped, cracked the front faring in half snaped of the front brake resevoir, the front rim is ****ed, bent to **** i dont even know how it still holds air, lol. its so bent it bounces when i ride it. and the gas tank has a nice deep dent scratch in it. other then that it aint to bad that FI cage worked like a champ.

Repair cost: haha, I just ordered a brake res., and a acerbis headlight kit, striped all farings. Im going to rock it like that for now, warrior style! mabey i should do something bout that front rim though slap on my 12 bar and im good to go. Do it again this weekend and post up some more footage; you guys are going to get my whole stunt tranning from this footage tell i can ride like a gangsta:YEAH

All tips welcome

 

did you **** your steering damper up? if not id take it off..i took my hyperpro off when i was learning 12s..saved it from breaking a couple times

 

No it didnt get fu<ked up, that sounds like a good idea to take it off.

 

how much air do you got in your rear tire???

looked pretty good really... theres some good advice already thrown out in this thread

i should be postin a vid up soon of me doin the same thing, buyin a bike tonight so maybe ill get lucky and wreck it tomorrow :YEAH

 

**** i let the air out at the spot with no checker so i have no idea what it was at probly to low

 

Nah... your back tire was no flatter than any other stunter I've seen. I ran my 929 at 12-15. Worked great for me. A tire thats on the rim still has like 7psi in it, and your tire wasn't that flat... looked about right.

 

cool, someone was tellin me it was to low but he cant if ride a weelie so what the Fu<k would he know, I have been learnin this **** by my self and with the help of this site and video's the guys i ride with cant do ****
