Ok I got the principle of circles pretty much, on a good day I can get about 5 sitdowns, 7-10 FIB & 6-7 SS O's.

I've been watching everybodies styles and tryin to figure out where i'm at and where i want to be.

Ok:
Borne- exciting fast circles. you can see the bike bumping up about every 1/8 turn from the blips. Kinda looks like he's bobin with the music on vids I like it tho.

Teach- Still exciting fast circles. From some of his clips it seems like he's not blipping as much kinda smooth then gas alot, almost too far then catch it, get back in control and repeat. Still
Some of his circles are really tight and smooth like it's all idle but is it turned way up?

Then you got Darius, A.C., Jonie Tamali sp.?:

Super smooth tight ones and wide ones. almost like they are on 2 wheels.

I try to pay attention to their egine but usually can't hear it on vids and never seen them in person.

It seems like they are all high idle and smooth brake but i can't tell for sure. In one of Joni's clips I could hear the engine & i think his idle was way up and he would just slip the clutch to slow it down when needed.

I'm somewher in the middle

Sometimes I do idle circles and bump the gas when i need it but i want to do wide fast ss O's wich i'm workin on. It seems way more fun to try to do it all throttle control and i think it probably looks smoother too but I don't know (no camera) until tommorow.

I like A.C.'s style fast and smooth but I just can tell what he doin to get there.

Any input?

 

ac has been doing circles for a long time..........

he can do them however fast or slow he wants ,that just comes with experiance

 

no doubt.

I'm on about circle 200 out of 3million atempts over time.

I'm just curious on their techniques

 

seems to me the further you lean in the faster you can go........

sounds simple hahaha but we know better huh

 

Borne runs his idle at 1800

 

Yeah seems like that but I guess what i wanna know is are the super smooth ones idle or throttle or does it just depend on the rider. It seems like the euros all have the same style and i like it just don't know how to get there besides the obvious-trial & error.

I just get bored trying and watching slow tight circles and combos.

Fast is where it at for me to keep it interesting

 

his circles are not on idle either - all gas, hence his idle being down under 2k ...

different riders have different styles ... a lot of riders may run higher idle but still gas through O's ....

 

I think that's why i notice the blips more. I run mine low sometimes and I think thats what mine look like

 

That reply was meant for roger sorry

 

alot of gear requires a little higer idle to cut down on the engine break so i think people with more gear tend to have there idle a little higher....

 

borne is like -2 +14 lol

ah ok

 

-2 +16 or 17. I was -2+14.

 

first i tryin circles on the idle and got 1-2 circle , then i learnin on the throttle control and got more but got more crashes too lol , practice......

 

its not fair ac was doing circles on his roller skates bake in 1947 , he was born then two days later he was taught to do no handed circles , dont even count him on this conversation !!!

 

I run My idle at about 2800, with +10 gearing.

 

lol....

meant for alex

 

yeaa but if you doin no hand o's or nth o's you must doin them with more rpm's ??, i think....

 

It seems to work perfect for me with a 78 tooth sprocket and runnning my idle at 4400 rpm, smooth as a baby's *** , oh baby jesus 8 pound six ounces ! ! !

 

you lying.....

 

nope. all the same idle. be light on the rear brake.
