Should be hitting the lot again today. already put on my stock rearsets and needa get my HB lever welded.

another thing you could do is go to a salvage yard and pick up a bunch of levers that fit...they usually sell them for cheap and have a few there thats what i do...that way you have them on hand when things go bad

Re: Lot sessions/practice progress thread

looks to me like you need to start doing either sit downs or seat standers...practiceing the samething over and over again not only gets boring but gets frustrating because you feel stuck...that or even throw in a couple stoppies but becarful if you do because theres no bailing on a stoppie its all or nothing and the bike will end up on top of you if you go over...but keep it up you getting there but if i were you i would start mixing it up a bit and start pushing out of your comfort zone
