I was learning ss circles last month. No good crashes but all the little ones really beat up my lower legs. I dont even know how.

I dont know how you guys are using a blow dryer.. sounds like bullshit to me.. lol.. I couldnt even get a heat gun to work. It would get almost hot enough and then the gun would overheat. I ended up using a blow torch.. **** looks mint on the outside.. the inside caught on fire a few times though. hah.

Re: ss circs and plastic tank q's

nice so it looks like imma rock a 600rr fer one of my next bikes i hope it rides as well as my f4i?

as for circ crashes i go to the right so when i high side ss circs i fly over to the left side of the bike im use to having enuff control over my bike in other stunts that when i crash i gracefully walk the bike outta those situations well with that said i crashed a ss circ highsided to the right forcing my arm to grab a handfull of throttle hence my body getting slamed the drug for a good distance. it was a confidence breaker but im back at em i get 3-4 sweet ss circs i murder the left foot on the rear left passenger peg i cant do a stagered stance circ and for sum reason am werking on combo from seat to 12 bar to passenger peg cir combos? i always learned **** wierd?



why does it feel so unatural and scary to circ to the left? and why is it so hard to stager circ to the right
?????

Re: ss circs and plastic tank q's

Thats funny you posted this thread. Just the other day I was practicing my circles and decided to go back to no handers to practice up a little and break **** up. Turned my idle up to about 35 hundo to get 'em rollin then one of my buddies shows up. Decide to take a break and chat for a little while. Well he's getting ready to take off so I figure I'll go out and rock some circles for him before he leaves. Yep, guessed it.....forgot to turn my idle back down and didn't realize it till I was about 2 circles in. I couldn't figure out why the biatch was going so fast. Anyway, after the second one I started to high side and tried to set it down easy. When it came down I slipped and grabbed some throttle headed straight for a curb. Figured I couldn't bail or anything so I just puckered up my butthole and held on for dear life. Jumped the curb went up and down the grassy knoll over another curb and finally stopped on the road. Didn't really wreck, but damn it was one hell of a ride. Wish I'd have gotten that **** on tape. I thought I was headed for the hospital that night.

yea those are the worst wrecks when you grab some throttle like that

getting a rock hard damper helped a lot for me
i used to spur the throttle and wreck all the time, with the damper you know where the bars are when you stall... or a nohander gets away from ya..
