Re: some circle help

Keep leaned in. Stay on the bike. I have the same problem and It is a bitch to get it done. I still cant do it but I know what Im doing wrong. Basically your bike is highsideing without the Shitty Circumstances of going down. Keep the bike leaned. tihs is the shittiest spot for me so far.

oh, and keep if feeling scary the whole way around. Eventually it will get comfortable. Still not there for me but I'm sure it will... has too!

Re: some circle help

Ah you're probably not on the brake enough or your switching your weight to the outside of the circle without it being dipped in. Are you gasing it at all? It's going to take practice i had guys out here that murder circles and it took me a month to get SS down. I kept doing about 1 untill i really started to use the gas that helped.. Just keep that left or right foot depending which way you go weighted.
