Re: My Friend Learning 1st Gear Clutchups

keep your foot on the rear brake. youre gonna naturally want to put your feet down when you get that far back, but its a bad habit even with a handbrake. keep it up and put some gear on

Re: My Friend Learning 1st Gear Clutchups

Fair play for him getting out there and trying over and over again.

BUT what is he learning from that?? You need to start with a goal in mind and not just clutching it to the sub frame and bailing out. Get him to keep the front up for a few meters and get used to the brake or something. riding like that just makes me think "pore bike"

Help that dude out and dont just make a funny clips of his crashes.

I give you credit for trying man. I can't believe that FI cage took that abuse. Good luck and wear the gear as well as set a goal like others have said.

Re: My Friend Learning 1st Gear Clutchups

Help out old Sliv3r there, and tell him to put his foot on the PEG. It's hard to learn FIS or FIB even after you already know how to wheelie. Try giving him some POINTERS instead of....."Get back on that bitch!"
