Re: Hmmmmm Stoppies Now??

coasters rule ,especially when you have enough room to get into like 4th. and i also like to coast up grass hills and crash and make it look good.

Re: Hmmmmm Stoppies Now??

krono as your new name will be pronounced...you should know that

#1 you cant endo
#2 f4i brakes suck
#3 i will show you how to beat carnes...for a price
#4 i will show carnes how to beat you...for a price

#5 and a real hint: increase the preload on your forks for more initial stiffness, increase the compression a little (maybe three quarters stiff), and most importantly increase the rebound damping so that the forks dont bounce up and down. do this enough so that your bike would handle like isht on the track, and so the front feels a little funny, then you are set for endos. this will eliminate the pogo action from being on / off the brakes when getting near the balance point.

lesson number 1 was delivered to everyone. lesson number 2 will be delivered only to those who seek wisdom and the knowledge to roll with no brake.

when all else fails the RR comes through I need to do some work on the front end of my bike, I was easily doing 400+ this summer but towards the end of the year my front end went to sh*t. I get that pogo feel you're talking about sometimes. I'll have to play with the settings a little.

Lets make a deal

Teach - ever put a 929 front end on a F4i? the brakes / forks feel like garbage. I could do em better on my 929 (which still sucked)

PS - Teach. Im in for the 1st gear coaster comp. THis F4i coasts nasty. YEAH BOY

BRILLIANT! Do you have to change the bearing racers? or direct plug & play?
