Getting smoother on the brake
So I can rock standups slow from a dead stop and sitdowns but Im still having a hard time just using the brake to keep the bike at bp. I find myself having to correct with the throttle but then sometimes I get so slow that the bike wants to die on me. I have an f4i with the idle up just don't know how high cuz of no gauges. Foot in seat helps me make it smoother but is there any other advise? I should be able to just use brake and idle right or is my idle too low? I'd say its around 2500-3k.

Re: Getting smoother on the brake
3k rpms should be enough. just snap it up quick and lay off the throttle right away. this will help you find that sweet spot with just idle. It'll take a few tries but with practice you'll be able to snap it up quick and just use your brake to carry you.
