i got them in black, thats part of the reason i rape the brake- don't really feel the pedal, But really like the surefootedness feel of them on the pegs, sneakers feel like they'll slip right off.

I just use icon super duty 2's, the sd 3's looked GAY as **** IMO (I'd have to rock BLACK sd3's if I went that route) but I also heard the sd3's were WAY more comfrotable..

but I liked the look of the boots I got

I wear acsis really thin shoes when I do anything, it seems like I have a better feel of everything when I wear them.

sorry but you are not allowed to get humble now just kidding youre doing pretty good just keep that front wheel nice and high and dont be skurred to use a little throttle when the bike leans in ...oh and always cut your levers so they dont hit the ground when the bike falls ..

Re: Need Hand Brake Assistance

LoL I will definitely do that next time... And I did it by accident, but I learned how important body movement is, and pulling in on the bars and pushing em back out, etc. That **** helped ALOT!

Got the concept.

Now, bend your right leg a little, not your left- keep it straight!. Your fighting the bike without knowing it. same thing as if you weight the outside peg on a 50 tryin O's you always want to be light on the ouside peg.

Can't really tell for sure but it looks like your back end is sittin kinda low. I'd make sure you have the rear spring as tight as possible it helps tons.

And like OMR said keep that front up. Better to setp off the back then try to save a high side. DOn't be afraid of the gas its your friend

try to go with coaster into the circle,and use that ******* throttle.and when you feel that bike will fall into the circle,then use your body and move it in other side,but dont keep your body on other side,becouse it will be mega highside. and keep front wheel high.

I wouldnt try going into the O's from a coaster This isnt a 50 or whatever kinda bike youre riding Juca. Id go in on idle and try to get idle O's first but obviously if you gotta blip the gas then do work.
