if anyone could help i could use it....i've been racing quads for few years...doin stunts blah blah blah...when learning bp on quad i would go to dead stop...hit gas n slip clutch...i hit grab bar bout 5 10 times then got my bp down and it's been uphill with progression every since...ride wheelies of any sort for miles on a quad.....decided to step my game up and start stuntin street bikes...i was goin in second gear and clutching up around 5 grand...i'm on a 01 f4i btw. riding out til gear is done...couple days ago i was ridin and now i gotta clutch up at around 6 or 7 like not getting as much power to rear wheel.. doesnt feel like slippn just feels diff...and im not sure y...less power. but i havnt done nthn to bike or nethng... and do i practice bp by hittin 12 bar? ne help would be appreciated thanx for your time...also about 5 grand i can hear a fast rattle noise sounds like it's coming from front of bike like something against something is lose or maybe coming from front of engine...

 

watch some video's, then put about 1,000,000 hrs. of seat time on the bike in FIRST GEAR, then come back if u have any more ?'s, and yes BP is before the 12 bar unless your bar is 2 ft. long. don't worry about the motor as of right now, you'll know when it goes bad. clutch it up and cover that brake.

 

^^^^^what he said

 

dont worry that rattle is most likely just the cam chain tensioner... the are a piece of **** on the f4i's.... take my new f4i for instance.... has less then 3k miles on it and the cct has already started makin that noise

 

yea bike only has about 6k miles on it...thanx for input i appreciate it...

 

i would hop on that quad and learn brake control with that during the winter, then once weather gets a little better you'll have the brake down and be ready for the f4i... wish i would of done this instead i trashed a f3, but she still runs...

 

yea i can walk quad to dead stop in a wheelie...or go as fast as it will go...stand up. seat stand. stand on grab bar. one handers. hi-chairs...whatever u can think of i can do it on quad.....biggest thing is getting used to the twist throttle on the f4i...i can pull pretty good high speed wheelies on f4i...jst wnt to slow it down like i do on quad...just so much different..lol bike is wobbly at real slow speeds and like i said i haven't got my throttle control down very good...still getting used to it...but i figured if i put 12 o clock bar on bike and hit it a few times i would b fine in bp...knda gets u used to tha bike being back that far and makes the bp seem not so far...at least it was that way on quad...
