turning progress.. finally got back out again

been over 2 weeks since i've been on a bike.. clutch basket was toast in my stunt bike and it took over 2 weeks for the parts to come in

i'm trying to stay centered over the bike.. i thought the bike was gonna take my head off in the 2nd crash(i tried giving it a little throttle to pick up the bike and it trew my body off to the left).. the cage bumped my helmet and i got some nice rash on my knee and arm from it

i'm definatly rusty.. i finally got back out tho so i just wanted to put up a vid

criticism appecited
(i kno my throttles still choppy.. workin on it)

Dude.....go ahead and dip it into the circle. Thats what I did and now I can get a few tight ones every 10 to 20 trys.
I stopped trying recons and went straight for the 0s.

Do it, Do it!!

What's yer tire pressure at? Mine was at like 20 and it's such a pain in the *** to do circles just like yours to the right with low pressure.

thats all ive been trying... Its getting pretty damn frustrating... I got back to doing 2-3 circles without corkscrewing or pulling out of the dip... I dropped my idle down and it helped a lot with my choppy throttle

ill get up another video soon
