Re: Cant find balance point

ok. if u dont have a handbrake dont gun it when u ckutch up. clutch gives u more feel and if u rise ur idle, u will run the risk of flipping. cutting off the bike will cause u to slam down and crash

get a handbrake, and mount it on the throttle side. that makes it a lot easier to use!

absolutely true. handbrakes are the only thing to help reach bp.

if you dont have a handbrake, then buy a 12 bar so you wont loop

Re: Cant find balance point

Man way to much bad advice here im just gonna leave this thread pretending I didn't even read it from the first place. I love people who give advise when they prolly can't even reach bp themselves lol. PAYCE
