good stuff! one piece of advice though, gas it, pop the clutch and get off the gas ASAP! you want the idle to be pulling you instead of you on the gas! the quicker you learn how to snap the clutch and get on idle right away the quicker you`ll be rock`n circles!

p.s. when you attempt circles for the first time, try em on a sitdown with your left foot on the ground and your right foot covering the foot brake! when your ready to turn them o`s just remember to be just on the idle! if you can do that mr. gorman you`ll be rocking circles by the end of your first day!

Yeah man, just ordered a 600rr idle cable and gonna get the idle mod done this week. Should I turn the stock idle up for now or is that gonna make it run shitty? Also keep wondering about the bigger sprocket I have (60 tooth not on). I'm at like -1 +3 right now. Half the people say learn stock or close to and the other say go big! Most everybody has big sprockets though, everybody! I know you can do this stock but am I just busting my *** for nothing? It seems like most of the time that I come to 12 it happens sooooo fast that I feel like I don't have time to brake while I'm bailing. Will I have the same issue if I go bigger?

Need a hb too! Maybe I can find that f'n thing when I need it!

Yup, when I pull my 1st circle the plan is to *** drag it!
Good advice son D and thx for the motivation!

DO NOT, I REPEAT DO NOT touch your stock idle! your bike will run like ****! when you do your idle mod turn your stock one all the way down!! your stock idle is actually your choke! on the sprocket side, the bigger you go the easier it`ll be to catch idle and wheelie! it`ll be really touchy at first but after two sessions you should be able to get used to it! to be honest with you mr. gorman theres cats down here in new mexico circling all day on a handbrake but cant use footbrake to save there life! i came up OG style with just footbrake! i just put on my handbrake seriously like 4 months ago! its all riders preference but the advice im giving you is master your footbrake first! after you master your footbrake the handbrake tricks will come very quickly!

p.s. if you do decide to get a handbrake go all out and get the dual caliper 4 piston handbrake set-up!!! can you say SUPER BRAKES!!

Yeah man, when I do get the extra funds I'll be getting the 4 piston Hohey set-up fo sho but for now and today my goal is to find the foot brake! I've had a few guys tell me that they rock a hb too but suck with the fb. I'll stick with the fb for now brotha!
Thanks for telling me about the stock idle and I won't **** with it until I get the mod done and then turn it down like you said.
The sprocket I think I am going to change soon too. I do think it's holding me back and don't feel like relearning this **** when I DO go big.
Another killer day and hittin' the spot this afternoon!

YEAH BUDDY!!! get that sprocket on ASAP! the faster you learn how to control your bike with a bigger sprocket alot of tricks are naturally gonna be easy to you! hell ya brotha stay on footbrake! ive seen guys do crazy death spins and high chair o`s but cant do no handers or sit downs to save there lives! there are days i wont even touch my hb because i love gettin low on my staggards and im a feen for sitdown o`s! ya brotha the day you get that idle adjuster in, put that ****** on right away! once you put that on, your stunter boats gonna feel like it has so much torque! its a BIG difference

hell ya, kill it today old man! i just re`painted the bike last night so im itching to get to my fed-ex spot this evening also!

K, gonna tell coach Neal I'm going for the big sprocket! I've been itching for this thing and can't hold back anymore! I just looked and it's a 58. should I put stock front sprocket on or stay -1 with the 58 on. Still need to ride the streets too.
Everyone agrees on the idle mod so that's a done deal before the weekend. The fb is gonna have to do for now until I talk wifey into $500 for a hb.

Got out for a quick sesh as I couldn't find a spotter and still don't feel all that comfortable without someone there in case I do f up. Might have to start paying homeless dudes to spot me out there.

Hope you got out and rocked that new paint job brotha! Pics of your bike would be cool!

Re: 1st practice/learning & just trying to park it

oh and i was looking at another thread and came across this , you guys with all your 50 talk should be ashamed of your selves

this quote is from leah , thats right her name is leah

My first advice is get a bike and set it up right, find some stunters to learn from and don't forget your gear

Basic stunting is one of those things if you practice, you will learn -it's not rocket science, just a skill.
tena coldbert learned on a 600 too ...just sayin ...lol
