Re: dumb Newbie question......

hay puer!

thanks for the link, i had no idea that the street thing was real popular in AUS!

Im in TASMANIA actually! so freestyle on the ski is a bit hard during winter, so i thought i would take it to the land and try this. I had done fome FMX (was never really really good) and liked it, but ii just think i would rather get behind something a bit more underground......

idk. all i know is fact. fact is i was rocking BP SS's the day i put on DB bars. never could do that before, plus i was choppy as hell before i had DB bars. It set everything real comfortable for me. Brought it back and scraped 2nd gear SS a few times (-1+15) and throttle control got alot easier.

But i think its from me riding moto-x in earlier years....jsut like this guy did.

keep the mx bars. period. Clips are only there for aerodynamics. Ask anybody.
