HYPERPRO or any High end rod style damper will always work better than any conventional style rotary

Re: how much psi for best stoppies?

If it is not carrying, then you are not at BP.

1st gear from dead stop, it IS going to come up.... so cover the brake. Once it goes weightless, and you catch it with brake..... it should stay at the same speed. Tap too much brake, it will drop in front of the BP and speed up. Too far back... it will fall behind the BP and slow down. It takes practice to feel your bike. It is always telling you something.

Oh snap..... you have to learn to use the rear brake before you do lot stuff bro. Or you'll thrash yourself and your bike. As the bike comes up to the bp, the rear brake keeps you from looping backwards. A slight tap along with a lil pressure anytime it starts coming to far back will keep you at or around the BP. Then it is just practice, practice and more practice.... along with evolving onto new tricks etc. Hope that helps a lil.


Still cant get over the fact that you r doing 2nd gear wheelies without knowing how to cover the rear brake.

Re: how much psi for best stoppies?

No problem. I would do like OMR said and use a buddies quad or something to practice rear brake on. Saves your bike and body from un needed pain.

Re: how much psi for best stoppies?

Rear brake control would have prevented that. Practice it on a quad bro... and you will see how cool it is.
