well i been doing SS's w/ out a hb... keeping them pretty slow for just throttle controll, but came back too far and scraped, and the bike tisted... ended up loosing it from 12... is there any way to get the bike off the bar w/out a HB from a SS?

 

come in fast, high rpms.. engine brake it, pull in clutch, scrape.. let rpms drop, let out clutch...

 

misunderstood me..... im talking about if i happen to loop out while on a SS to the bar.... not intentionally. so i just pull in the clutch, and let it back out for the EB to bring me off?

 

The higher your rpm's are at, the more engine breaking you will have. so if you think your comming back to far just let off the gas and if your at high rpm's the engine break should bring you back. If you want to scrape come in again at high rpm's bring it back slowly using the engine break, when your real close to scraping pull in the clutch let the bike scrape -rpm's will be dropping-then let out the clutch, the engine will catch and pull you back down. It also helps to lean foward and kind of bench press ther bike back down if you think your back too far. Good luck.

 

cool.. i scraped it on accident, and lost it.. was wondering how to prevent loosing it again.. thanks

 

If you're going slow, its not coming back from clutching. At that point you have to park it or let it fall.

If you have some speed, the moment you know its going to loop, pull in the clutch so you dont lose any speed. Even if the bar is still 8 inches off the ground, pull in the clutch and let it gorilla scrape.

 

if u hit the bar.. just pull in the clutch.. n hope it doesn't twist

 

yeah i was going slow, not over clutching

thats what happened though, as soon as it hit it twisted, i grabbed the clutch, but did no good, so i let it go. i didnt fall, but it bent my FI cage, and bolt for motor mount

 

make sure to keep soft bolts in the cage.. u deff dont' want one to snap.. and that way, it bends, and then takes .35cents to replace

 

thanks good looking out! it also bent the brace that goes back to the rear mount, so ill have to heat/bend that back too

 

seat standers are great fun with no hb
but i have no bar so bailing one wouldn't be fun

thanks for the speed and clutching tips
