Sweet!!!

 

how long did it take you to learn? how many wrecks? i am fixing to venture down the road of the almighty 12 and just wonder what i have to look forward to...lol

 

that 's some ****! what gearing are you running?
Did you start out sitting or standing? what RPMs are you at when you 'dump' the clutch in first? Sorry for all the questions, but I'm startin to do 12's on my R6 with only +2 in the back. I get going about 5-7mph, hit throttle a few times while holding the clutch in with one finger. Front comes up high really fast! Any feed back would be great. Thanks!

Hellz Yeah man! Now stop being a puss and turn up that damn idle ! ! ! Let see the No-Handers....

Hopefully you won't look like the last time we rode!!! LOL

 

nice

 

its broken

 

nevermind, its workin now

 

yo r6 kidd i run -1/+5 in my f4i i leave my idle down i clutch it up at like 5mph bring to the point right before the oh **** point let sit for a minute lean back farther tap the throttle a little and the **** just drops but u might want to cut the pipe down bcuz it catches sometimes and throws u around a little so becareful dont push it and ur back brake is ur best friend be safe and good luck

 

thanks all!

I haven't crashed while practicing parking 12s. I have crashed due to bad road conditions (one end of the bar catching, throwing me off) in just regular 12s (while really learning to get the control over them). But I've crashed a total of, around 7-10 times or so. Nothing supersevere, but bent quite a few things.

No handers will be here shortly... I got my left hand off, but that is not very hard.

I am going for circles, but have only managed to turn in about 120 degrees. I am still a bit of a *****. I'll get it down soon.

 

dont push it swedie take ur time at ur own pace when u feel comfortable enough go for it dont be pressured by someone or group that u think u gopt to catch up to either way be careful and congrats

 

thanks for the though korno, but I am really whack when it comes to bikes. I gotta learn! but I am not stupid.. so I won't die any time soon, unless I wreck and get this beast I have ontop of me and crush my skull *knock on wood*

 

u think that 93 750 would b a good starter bike?

im gettin a bike in a couple of months

 

750 are nasty bikes but a 93 im not sure i would go with 98 or newer but then again im not a bike expert swedie well i hope u stay safe and go rock that ****er to the ground

 

dude! you say it is nasty! I must say the opposite. This bike beats my 2002 R1 for stunts easily. I have started doing **** on this bike I was not able to do on my 2002 R1. It feels more rigid and stable everywhere. The R1 is too darn light!

 

dude im saying a 750 is a good bike (nasty) but a 93 i dont know about that

 

damn slang! starting to be mean the total opposite of the actually word.

 

its gangsta **** thats how we do it on the mean streets of wb
