I was ****** laughing my *** off reading this.... Everything is gonna be on my bike too but I definitely believe in mastering the fb before hb. I mean what fun is it if you learn all that **** and dont get to do NHders.

Re: Stunting alone....

Thanks for the replys everyone. Yeah i'm looking to get a trailer. Just money is tight right now. So what are you guys running for trailers. I went out last night after posting this and just road. Alone. It was nice. Like you said some people hold you up. This is true. I used to have a buddie that wanted to get into this. What did he do? Sold his bike for a 1000. Cause his bike couldn't wheelie? Wound up smashing into a dumpster breaking his back in 3 spots, both legs, and his arm. He was my riding buddie. I also need to get a cell phone. So this week I will look into trailers but I need to know what one would be good for someone on a budget. I don't need a inclosed one yet. As for the nh 0's there cool in all but what really gets my blood going still is just straight line combo's why IDk. I know 0's are way more technical but right now i'm just starting off and want to get everything going in a straight line first. I can slow them down to get to a stall just I need to work on turning them in not riding the brake. Also I'm going to be Dl the liability waver and bring it to this place I ride to make it legit. Later-Matt.

I know I was talking about the people I used to ride with up here man. Cause of my girl I was more conserned with her for that time. Now I come crawling back out of the dark and no one around here likes me now cause of that. I understand why they don't have the time of day for me but, I was always there to help them. Most of my friends can't even hold a relationship so i'm sure down the road they will be in the same shoes I was. But you know what I'll still be there for them cause that is the type of person I am. Always looking out for others before myself. As for the quote post. Josh i'm getting a trailer this week. I will call you as soon as I pick one up.

Re: Stunting alone....

Yo Matt where do you live in NY? Dont know if you're upstate or in the city but I'm in the same boat. I have no one to practice with. I met a few people who say they wanna learn to stunt but the majority of the time when I call there's always an excuse. So, I practice alone and dont push myself coz I dont wanna get hurt w no one around. My girl knows where I'm at and she knows if she doesnt hear from me once an hour that somethings up. If you're close to Queens, I'm down.

Re: Stunting alone....

I wish I was farther south man. I'm from upstate. Schenectady. About 20 minutes north of Albany. I hear you though. When I was with my girl she would be there or stop down after a couple hours to see if I was still alive. Now I need to get a cell cause if I eat it the people don't start coming in till like 8 in the morning. I've been going to this spot from like 6pm till i'm drained or my bike starts running like crap.

Re: Stunting alone....

Ya I always carry my cell in my pocket. If you looking for a cheap trailer you can buy one of those harbor frieght ones for like $250. I've got a 5x8 utility from like lowes with 15 inch wheels that fits 2 bikes and works great but there close to a grand.

Good point and also that you don't feel any pressure by people watching that you suck or whatever. Or that you don't kill yourself when you loop it trying to impress friends and peeps.

Re: Stunting alone....

Yea I was going to go to HD to get a trailer but theres a guy who makes sells all different ones out on rt5 near Amsterdam and I'm going there tomorrow. Let you guys know how it works out. What's the smallest size trailer that a bike can be fit on under a grand like dimensions wise? And what size hitch and ball rating should I look for. Thanks again. Matt.

we will get together one time soon and you will be better by the end of the day....if you hook your handbrake up you will be doing idle seat standers in 10 minutes with a money back guarantee ....you definitely get better when their is someone their to push you

Re: Stunting alone....

Hahahahahahahaha. So like I went out tonight. 40 mins total. Really sucked. So I get there i'm like um ok i'm by myself what do I do. So I just make sure no ones around. I start off thinking all be as good as last week. PFFT. One week I can ride them fine then after a couple days off I totally suck. Also I pmed you on gayspace Josh about a problem i'm having with a bogg. So I'll also ask here. So i'm clutching from a dead stop riding them at BP at 20-25 sitdown and stag. Heres the problem. Sometimes when I'm at bp my rpms just start dropping? Like i'm on the gas riding the brake a little and the **** is just totally bogging out like crazy. I have a 60 on my rear and I would clutch the **** out of it and sometimes it would come up to bp other times it wouldn't...Other times like I said I would be at bp riding them fine then I would have to start cutting trees down copping the throttle to maintain the height of the wheelie what is this ****? Anyone with a f4i on this site has had this problem fuct420 just said his bike is running like **** well mine too is now running like ****. Anyone have any imput on this bogg? I just put a new clutch in last month...plugged my one side of the air box, checked all the wiring,fuses,battery,tipover, and everything in between everything is fine but its just bogging out like crazy. I would appreciate some help on this maybe that my problem that one week its running fine the other times it runs like **** could this be why I suck. It's also scary to go out on your own with no cellie either knowing if you fall you might not be able to get up and walk to the house down the road to call for help if your *** is broke in the lot. Comment back please someone.

Re: Stunting alone....

^^^ If you have a trailer come on down man. Im up to ride anytime. I'm going to get a trailer tomorrow myself. Maybe I'll head out your way one day. I have a spot its in back of a water-heater place. Lots a little v spotted in the middle but flat. There was a boat parked there tonight but I just noticed that there is lights there for night riding, I have been going there for a couple months. Not once has any **** happened. I go after the people that work there leave. Your about a mile down from the main road surrounded my old warehouses so no sound really gets out. It's like 150 feet wide by almost 600 feet long. There's also a side road that isn't excessable to the public but from the spot you can cut over and its about a mile long. If people doing pow pow power wheelies show up I tell them to go over there. Plenty of room not to crash into me or anything else.
