Right was what I learned first and Im working hard on trying to get lefts, but I was naturally turning right and had to work on keeping it straight in the beginning learning idle. I think its different person to person some find left easier and some right....

I do it with my foot on the seat, can do foot in the seat but dont like it as much....FIB not so much

I'm in the same boat. Practice makes perfect. You just have to keep at it. No-one can tell you how to circle. Its all about practicing. Some tips do help though.. Good luck.

hahahahaha i like that idea . and remember just blip the gas , dont lay into it . at least with me it helped to just think about goin straight as far as the gas was concerned . you natruly give it some gas if it falls out of b/p goin straight .... do the same in a circle if its fallin out .

another thing that helped me alot . look into the circle twards where you wanna go .

Re: left or right hand circles witch is easeir

when you go right fib is easier but when you go left staggered is easier

when you go left fib its easier to jump off when you highside but it sucks to low side

when you go right fib its easier to low side but its sucks to highside cause its hard to jump out when your learning...

it doesnt make sense but i have seen alot of people learning ss circles before any other kind of circles,the only advantage i can see is its easy to jump off either side of the bike but i learned right fib first

if you choose to do this watch out for those high sides,they hurt

Re: left or right hand circles witch is easeir

if you try right your gonna steer but I guess you should eventually come to a real circle...if you go left you have to dip it in and do the real thing...I guess left is more harder at first but you will learn real stuff faster cuz it forces you to...but im not the best person to give advice so do what you feel comfortable with...
