if you put a flywheel weight on the 450 it will be nice alot smoother

you know how other riders and **** on the street that don't stunt all turn around and bobble back and forth while trying to watch your first gear combo's n **** when you all are pullin off from a stop sign or whatever??

Your post reminds me of goin out in the country roads out here in KS and doin that but turning the wheelie about 90 degrees crossing the oncoming traffic lane.. taking it down the ditch set it down on the uphill side and start jumping terraces in a brome field on my KTM!!
that was hella funny **** right there... makin all ur buddy's stop and watch while you rut up some guys hay field trying not to crash from the motard tire! I have more country than city around my immediate area, but the urban setting is fun too!

Re: Circle's on my 08 DRZ

Wow I'm so jealous. Been practicing 1st gear FiB wheelies this week but can't get it to go slow, it just revs up so easily, is hard to control and balance. How slow circles can you do with it? Have you modifeid it in any way except gearing?, Since in my experience I think it's very sensitive and weak on low revs.

I dunno, any tips would be appreciated

only thing i did was stiffen the suspension, went one down on the front sprocket ,and as for the circles im dipping in going pretty quick and once im in you gotta work the clutch, cant go off idle its not geared enough, if i had a bar im sure that would be alot easier.

Ah ok, clutch control while on the backwheel isn't my strong side, sounds difficult . Think I'll change the gearing on mine eventually, it's just stock at the moment but with enough practice I guess that works aswell
