well i can get one around every time but i keep stalling out out spiraling down. do you have to slip the clutch as you go into it or do you have to keep it high. any advise would be nice

 

i found when i was stalling out on circles it was because i had my idle too high,, drop the idle down and then you will have to use less brake and more gas,, therefore stall less..

 

good ponit im running about 3500 rpms

 

yep turned down the idle it dose help alot theres more room to give it gas wen its needed

 

glad i could be of some assistance...

 

good advice but h/c circle's are different then most other,i found it help's to lean forward(i use to lean back) and as alway's look where your going just like cornering,also body english help's what you can get anyway's(h/c position doesn't let you use a whole lot) and keep the nose up slight lean in and blip throttle as needed. hope this help you.

 

cool will do but one more thing shold in kinda fast just a tad over idle or go into it just on idle.

 

that is up to you, either way will work,it just depend's on what you are comfortable with,for me i go in just on idle

 

the clutch is clutch here. practice using hb/clutch by just riding around and skidding and then pop some sick sitdown wheelies like that.


i've seen some guys get em on brake only, but they are inconsistent and then struggle when tryhing to ride out of them.

if you start by learning them covering the hb/clutch then the next step is that much easier.

on my kawi, i kept the idle at 4k and slippidy slipped the clizzutch when you spin real fast....just like any other circle that tightens up quickly.

dont forget to goose it!

 

what do you mean with goose it?

 

give it gas!

 

4k in a highcair ? might end up pullin a roadrashchick there.. But i cant do them,, so what do i know..

 

been working on useing the clucth. i kept stalling or tighting them to fast i can ride out of them pretty smooth now.

 

my idle is around 2000 rpm and i have only got around 3/4 do you think more or less idle

i dont stall alot just crash

 

i run the idle at 36-4k for everything....


when i was learning them, the bigget thing for me was to take my upper off so i could hang on with my legs and have more control with the gas/brake/clutch.

then after that it was simply committing to the trick and not being afraid to fall. same as a regular circle once you get it.

try 50/50 first so you have that inside left leg to use as a balancer, then both legs between the arms in hc becomes a little easier.

committment!

 

if you are stalling and spiralling down, i'd say dip the nose a bit and then gas it once it falls into the circle.

slip the clutch when the circle slows down and it is going to stall mid circle.

same as reg circle. falling in you need to give it more gas...highsiding you will need to use more brake and then clutch it accordingly to prevent the stall.

use your legs for more balance control

 

you don't have full fearings anymore?

or doing it now with full fearings like Cyril from brestunt

 

Im not scared to commit.. I have my spreaders slow now so im riding them on idle.. Now im working on slowing down my highchairs so i can ride them out on idle then start turning them in.. Im going to practice highchair circles before i do spreaders, because it seems easier to bail off a highchair then it is a spreader..And i refuse to take off my uppers.. Its just a matter of practice.. Ill get'em..

 

nah scott spreader circles are easier to bail from and less painfull. its easy to save urself and ur bike if a spreader circle doesnt work out. u got both feet already free. A hc would be much worse and the stalls are gonna kill ur legs n ***

 

Not for me.. A highchair i just let go of whatever hand the bike is tossing me and throw both feet over,, But a spreader i have to bet back onto the seat and then try bail off from there.. I cant just stick one foot out to save a spreader that falls over..
