Wow, props on doin em staggered! Seriously one of the hardest circles to learn. You know how to coaster correct? Clutching out of a staggered is pretty easy though.. instead of stalling. awesome progression though.

kick *** I remember you saying you were gonna try them, have you tried positioning your body towards the outside and lean the bike more it would stop you from feeling like it's gonna highside and if it starts to then you have some time to catch it with your clutch, good job now stunting going to be alot more fun for you!

Re: First day learning circles
That is sick progression. You must have a good feel doing circles on some other bike cause you seem to know where the circle is just a matter of knowing how the bike handles and reacts. Keep it up man you'll have it in no time.

ya I got circles on lock on my 50 and 150f.. I think my 150f gave me a TON of feel for what a sport bike would be like to circle, damn thing weighs around 220+

I just gotta get better on brake control, and get some more practice..

Went out today and was hitting 2 circles over and over, but never got any more
