No access to a 50 whatsoever. I wish. But as far as practice. Practice stopping with the back brake? Give me some examples.

Re: 1st gear or 2nd

if your wheelie is going to steep (past your balence point) tap the rear brake (dont lock it up) and itll bring you back down on two wheels or atleast infront of the balance point
