if you're not using a brake, and the bar is not dragging on the ground, how do you plan to stop the inertia of the bike?

Re: Merk Stepping
if you refuse to get a hand brake then i would just keep the idle at 1000 and just park it on the bar then stepp off and pick it up off the bar and then go with it from there

if you shut off your engine and held the clutch half way in it could work easy enough

Re: Merk Stepping
Do you guys ever notice that when the idle is down lower than stock, and you're creepin around, Carbed bikes seem to have more engine brake than equally geared injected bikes?
