coasters ( what am i doing wrong)
i started coasters tonight and i can only get them going for like 7 or 8 feet it comes up then it slams back down (with the brake). im only doing it in 1st gear because i cant think of another way to put it into N with out hitting a differnt gear, any help could be great
Re: coasters ( what am i doing wrong)
just go in 2nd as fast as it will go theen shift into 3rd pop it up there all the way back and eez off the brake when you need to and coast it if anything start doin it down hill that is how i learnd
Re: coasters ( what am i doing wrong)
Learn to wheelie 3rd gear. Accelerate in 3rd and fall back slow. I've been practicing coasters. It takes a lot to convince yourself to not hit that brake enough to bring you down but to hold you there. Kick *** feeling though when you're just cruising on the back wheel with no throttle heh

easiest way for big distance is i come in pinned and yank it up and slip it into neutral at balance point. if you get it right, you can coast at least 50' before you touch the brake

Re: coasters ( what am i doing wrong)
thanks guys for all the info their are getting better but not great ill just keep working on them, i was thinking about getting a hand clutch only 90 bucks, is it worth it? it just feels so wierd to pull up on the shifter and hold it there and work the brake, but ill get her with time, thanks again
