same here, i can hardly stand up wheelie. I like doing them occasionally but can only do them for a few minutes and plus i looped a stand up coaster the other night one finger on brake, then the brake wouldnt come back in to bar as fingers in the way!

Sit down for circles!

Im probably going to start learning cirlces at the spot next time I go.

i'll tell you one thing, stand-up 12's are alot easier than sitdown 12's, but ALOT more sketchy.

Venom600

I can get it to almost 12 sitting down but not standing. Its easier to hop off wile sitting if I loop it than if im standing. When you are at 12, thats when you are having to keep on the rear brake to keep from looping, correct?

Joe87

hmm on my pushbike, sitting down, if i roll it back to 12 i need a bit of speed, or itll flip straight away. BUt even then, it goes 12 rolls forward to about 11 then just flips. Standing for 12s deffo, get your body over the bars and fist ful of brake saves the day

12 is when one wheel is DIRECTLY above another.


like this:

Standers look cooler and not as easy, but are not easy to maintain. For circles the sit down is the way to go. Hey what's up Pete?

GundamnitPete

what's going on bro?


finally got my old account back :YEAH

Tomi

Now finally got circles on lock:YEAH

Venom600

Awesome. I would maybe be able to do one big fast circle if I had a flat place to do them.

Tomi

Yeah fast circles are also fun.

12 !T

Not Much u

Hows the XR100 doing u?

GundamnitPete

pretty good, lost a motor mount bolt the other day tho

Im starting to get circles. The only problem is the only flat spot I have to ride is when I ride at the spot with atl freestyle, but I've managed to get circles (one at a time) at my house.

Thats cool. Pete I got my sportbike power wheelies down and clutching them up is ok, but I just spent $300 on a new clutch do to that and burnouts and my stoppies are like 50ft.

Venom600

I getting about one circle almost every time I attempt on a slope now. Waiting for a chance to get up to the spot to ride on flat ground.

12 !T

that would help. keep trying diffrent body positions also.

Venom600

I have been and I think I found one I like. I am sitting and lean the bike under me kind of at an angle. I'll get pics when I can because this is hard to describe.
