i have 03 gsxr1000 -1+10 15psi. what gear to learn? idle? and the part im not understanding is do ya ride the brake and apply pressure as needed or is it completly on and off taping?

thank guys i tried searching and everything goes off topic.

 

learn in 1st gear.

I think the easiest way to learn brake is by clutchin it up easy, bringin it up past balance then slowin down by riding the brake hard and stayin on the throttle. this way you really don't have to worry about the brake right when you clutch it and you can fudge the throttle a little... you can ease into using brake and get a feel for your right foot.

Once you get better w/ brake control and it becomes more of a reflex action then you can start clutchin up harder so your forced to use the brake imeadiatly to keep from loopin....

when u get good at that your ready for idle.... turn your idle up to about 3000 and clutch it straight up hard and fast from a dead stop, catch it w/ brake then just tap the brake here and there to keep it up.

thats it... easy!

 

learn the brake with stock gears.

 

thanks for the tips guys. i sat down last night and sifted through 20 pages if that how to 12 sticky. good tips in there but hard to find. would be cool if the cleaned the thread up a bit. first 8 pages were arguing about bar or no bar. wasnt alot of info in there on the basics of a 12.
