Just got my bike and im rockin 12's pretty easy. First fall yesterday goin about 50 doin a 12. Thought i was coverin the break but it turns out i wasn't... and yea you get the idea. Flipped the bike and messed my back up and might have a fracture in my right ankle already. What the fu*k, that sucks huh? About to go and practice some stoppies. Ridin the bike for about 3 days so far and it's handlin nice.

Re: How long did it take everyone to learn to stunt?
"stunting" for almost a month, dont have the heart to drop my bike right now so i havent been trying too much, i can ride around in the highchair position all day long and i can do some basic power wheelies and "endos" cant roll them yet tho, something is just nerve wracking about jamming the brakes at 40, tried clutching it up and all it did was spin, i think the pavement was too cold........ havent broken anything yet

same here, that 50 makes the back brake a no brainer. I just went out on my F4i stunt bike for the 1st time yesterday and am just starting to slow it down at 11ish. Took me around an hour to get the hang of clutch wheelies (since I just bounce em on my gixxer on the highway). Today my goal is to roll 1st gear for a few hundred feet and keep it slow! maby hit the 12 bar, but that's not the plan for a while... I'm till waiting for my cage and pizza sprocket to arive too since I still have stock gearing.

High chair position all day? That's cool, do girls flash you for that?

You're just making jokes like that cause you have nothing with an engine, I can make a bicycle joke too.

Re: How long did it take everyone to learn to stunt?
for me, stunting like a week on my F2, I've been repairing it almost all the time since I've had it, and just got the cage on when it decided to start leaking from an unknown place which turned out to be the engine block so I had to silicone it. I haven't had much time to practice or found a suitable spot yet but I can do:
Fast standups, seat standers, flamingos, weak stoppies.
I'm working on the slow wheelies right now, I just have a mental block, I actually got it to catch the idle a little yesterday.
