brake control
I just killed my 750 and im going to be starting all over with a new shiny one this spring. This was my first season off pure stunting and i learned a lot thanks to advice from the guys on this board. So my question is this, whats a good cheap way to learn how to ride back brake tricks like circles and real slow rolls/combos. i got highway speeds stuff real good. What kind of fifty do i need to learn the slow stuff so ill be able to make it through next season without killing that new bike learning brake tricks from scratch? Keep in mind i dont know anything about 50s at all...which is the best crossover to stunting a reg bike? What should i get/not get? Post some pictures if you got em....

Brandon how can you say quads don't incorporate balance? Of course they do!
Riding wheelies and doing endos require BALANCE, come on.. if you didn't have blance you'd defiantly loop or flip it man.

He said the leaning balance. I would probly guess he ment 'leaning side to side' Since with quads...your on the 2 back wheels....and a 50 you are on the single back wheel. 2 are more stable than 1...so on a bike you have to keep it upright...on a quad...it just stays upright.
Everyone knows it requires front/back balance to wheelie.

If I had the money I'd have a TT-R 125 Yamaha. Maybe an xr100. They actually have a clutch and are bigger so it transfers to the big bike better. I will say that the fiddy is where I started learning brake control though.

Friend came down the hill as I was walking up from going swimming at the river and bragged he could wheelie off in the distance he did it and went for a 2nd try looped that bitch. Too big of bike for ihm though, He is really small and he was bitching about me having an 80cc at the time.. if he could be here here now 
he'd be leading me with my group.

quads? like the ones rollergirl was rocking in boogie nights
yeah those suck, but really whats wrong with suzuki 50's? is it just personal preference cause i know you guys roll with hondas and the RRs over gixxers on norm stunt bikes. or KTMs fiddy looks pretty sweet for that matter
