just learned idle wheelies!!!

so yesterday i could hold em for about 2 or 3 sec.. today i got em for about 8 or 10 sec!!! it feels fu*kin awesome!!! from the dead stop with idle up(duno how high cus no gauges) stagered with my knees into tank, i clutch it up like im tryin to tap the bar, but tried to catch the brake just a hair earlier than where the tap would happen. then if i get it i lean left or right to stear and back as much as i can to keep it straight. if i brake to much i just roll on throttle for smooth landing and do again. when done well, i roll with nothin but brake, just verry small blips of throtlle to keep it behind balance point so i can maintain with the brake. i will pactice this for the next month or so n then try coasters! i already could tap bar n drag bar before i learned idle. i learned idle by sucking up being a pus about trashing my bike, hell i have an A-town cage so no worries. in the first 10 or 20 tries my f4i took some serious pancakes! nasty **** where the bike bounced some how.. but no damage to anything what so ever so im happy. well my radiator broke loose twice but thats cus it was already messed up. HELL YEAH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Re: just learned idle wheelies!!!

Try putting your foot in the bar or rear seat. It will feel weird at first but once you get comfortable with it, you will be able to control it a bit easier.

good to hear like the guy said above me try foot in the seat and if you have a hand break put both feet on the back pegs its a lot more comfortable

putting your foot on the bar or rear seat will make it a bit easier than just using the rear peg? cause i have bp.... its going past it thats my problem...

Re: just learned idle wheelies!!!

i picked atown because when i was readin up on the different cage designes and started lookin at the pics of them it just looked rock solid and well designed.

i dunno what idle is set at cus i dont have any gauges. i turn it up alil and try tap bar and if it works i leave it. if i suck and cant get it to roll any ill turn it a lil higher. it dose seem like the higher the easier but i dunno, i only done it for bout 3 days now...

i cant use my hand brake right now, i f...ed up my lever a week ago bein a dumb ***... i got both front 929 calipers and a 80in line already, i want me the fti dual quad bracket and a r1 or 1000rr master n i can trash that gp teck bs i got now..
