Re: i hate circles

I'm trying to go right. Can get a few but not to many tight ones.

Re: i hate circles

i go left, i find it easier. i can only circle big to the right, i can't get them tight.

i run 25psi, get it behind balance so you are only on break, right when it dips a little past balance i turn my bars opposite (so i would turn them to the right for a left circle) and the bike falls over to the left. on staggered stance i just put weight on my inside leg (left leg) and pull on the left clip on and try to keep it right at idle touching the gas as little as possible. it'll feel like you're constantly falling backwards past balance point.

going tight to the right...i can't do so i can't help there.
