Haven't ridden in about a week so was easing myself back in today, scared myself with my first couple of wheelies, but slowly started to get back into it, thought i'd try and improve my brake control instead, riding in circles with the idle turned up to about 3k, made myself feel dizzy and sick , any tips?

Also is the aim to get the bike on the lock stop for this?

Sparks!

It doesnt have to be on full lock really... use the rear brake to control the speed and lean angle etc... you'll get used to it and it definetly teaches brake control, it helped me loads anyways... ! if the idle is too high it makes things harder (same for idle wheelies etc IMO) so don't go higher than you need to.. think mine is set at about 2.5 (with clutch out) and that works well... do you find you're being pulled round too fast with your idle? if you're happy with it leave it as it is, but if you find it pulling you round too fast, turn it down a bit....

On the flipside, idle is very helpful for not ending up on your ****.
