Re: Learning to stunt on a nice bike...


Yeah, i've learned everything i know on this, it looks nice, as of right now. Stoppie accident took 1/2 of the altered 905 cage of the left, luckily it only took a blaack and red sharpie to fix it. Thats why i'm probably getting a 929 this week strictly for stunt purposes. I agree that the less u care about your bike the faster ur gonna learn ur skills.

Stunt DVD's definitley do not count as I think we all know none of the riders featured in them are ever compensated accordingly. (except reasonable doubt (PART 1 not PART 2)
I do on the other hand, participate in a hell of a lot of exhibitions. I also am very fortuneate enough to have several cash paying industry reconized sponsors with whom I actively endorse multiple products for...
BUT...
I also live in Southern California and put every penny I ever earn directly back into my business, as well as split it accordingly with my team partner. when you look at my finaces as to how much I spend compared to what I make.. whew... its a sad affair... If I can afford a hamburger and keep my account above overdraw I feel like a king.
Ill level with you.. when I look at my career, if things continue at the pace they have for the past 2 years, and as long as I am able to continue as such.. I realisticlly think that by spring of 2008 I will be doing OK. I already wish it was '07.

Re: Learning to stunt on a nice bike...
Its an endless cycle. You start out with a minty bike, stunt it, and soon get bored of the tricks you can do. So you step it up and start learning new tricks, eating **** along the way, and caring less and less about your now non-minty bike. Thats when you actually start to progress, and then you start to think that your good enough to stunt a minty bike again. So you make your bike minty again. Then you try learing circles and the cycle goes on...

I learned on a nice bike, full fairing 9deuce w/no cage...and if you ask me (which i guess you are) stunting a nice bike, esp when learning SLOWS your progress, because you dont wanna trash your bike.
I picked up a stunt piece and then i actually learned how to hang off the bike, and balance wheelies and ****. (after looping it that is).
