I was having better luck with standups, but I was using a rear peg....

Re: fiddy standup vs sitdowns

Sit down by far. If you get a rear peg thats the bomb easy way and looks good. NEW rule !!! " If you have a rear peg you better be busting consitent circle wheelies or you are not alowed to rock the peg "

I can rock stand up for ever I love but very tiring!

Re: fiddy standup vs sitdowns

standups are way harder on the redular pegs, the way i do em is just lock my left arm and hold my self up with it b/c if u try to hold yourself with your right arm yo wont be able to control the throttle as well

get bigger bars and you wont have to yank as hard. just lean back and ride the break. i got mine 3 weeks ago, in the last few days i can ride em till my arm is too sore to keep goin. so just keep practicin and before you know it, itll be easy
