its good to learn with idle up, i know it sounds funny but it helps. i tried slow stuff for age's and was choppy on the throttle, then turned the idle up and it make's a big diffrenes. you wont loop cuz you got the brake in your head now so give it ago, and in a few days or a week your'll be way smooth:YEAH

Re: Sparks Practice video..

surely tho if i learn with idle as it and keep it smooth with that then i'll be even smoother when the idles raised?

I can keep it relatively smooth with idle as it is most of the time, sometimes a bit choppy (couple ive wondered how i stayed on lol)

I might try raising it again then I just thought the exrta engine breaking would be handy whilst learning..

Lookin good man. You'll get it all before you know it. :YEAH

Your stoppies are pretty high thats good. You can work on distance a little at a time.

Real 180's only happen when you make them. NO OFFENSE. I use to go into a stoppie and when It started turning i went with it. The only problem is that's letting the bike control you, try to keep it straight with them arms locked and then turn it when you want to. If you want to veer left then slightly push in the right bar. If you want it to turn like a 180 when you slow down push harder on the right and it will turn to the right.

Wheelies look good to, looks like you are gettin slow and smooth. It is easier to learn with the idle jacked up but it's kinda skippin steps that way in my opinion.


Just practice you will see. Be Safe
