Re: coasters?
2nd-3rd gear coasters are difinitely smoother but i reccoment learning small ones at low speed in 1st. Once u get the concept down and are comfortable with the bike hitting the bar at fast speed if it has to then u can speed em up. Ride BP and blip a litle more n pull in the clutch when u wanna go for distance bring it up fast and throw it back real fast. you'll have alot of momentum and go for good distance. What do i know i dont know crap about coasters
Re: coasters?
once you get the basic feel for them, pull the clutch in while you are at the balance point and stay off the brake. Dont ever let the bike go behind the bp if you can help it. Going behind shaves off a ton of speed and momentum. The key to getting coasters is to stay completely off the brake as much as you can. if you ride them behind the balance point you will go through pads fast.
Ideally, you want to be able to pull in the clutch at bp and hover your foot like half an inch above your brake lever for a couple seconds before you even have to get on the brake. The bike will just hover, then the instant it moves back feather the brake and let back off all the way. You'll get good at anticipating when to get on the brake before the bike moves with practice. Once you can do this your coasters will go mad far. You'll pretty much run out of room anywhere you go.

oh, and if you have some heavy duty gearing, do not exceed 8-9K rpms before pulling the clutch in. If you accidentally let it out while you are cooking you run the risk of going over the bars. Letting the clutch out while the motor is idling while you are in first gear and going fast is the same thing as suddenly slamming on the rear brake.. Personally, if it were me, I'd clutch up second gear and ride them out to 6-7K rpms and then pull the clutch. Engine braking wont effect you that much if you let the clutch back out on accident.

If you can slow wheelie, they seriously take like 30 mins to learn. Just go slow, pull in clutch, brake out. Then start letting it drop below bp, power back, clutch, brake out. Then you can get use to clutching them up at a faster speed and just throwing it back.
