Help drifting
Re: Help drifting
If you can lock up the rear tire and skid... just do that and then rev the bike a little, diump the clutch and gas through the slide.
Putting your foot down and using the front brake are both cheating.

Re: Help drifting
but help in LEARNING... you dont have to be a drift pimp from the gate... learn with your foot down... eventually you will learn the lean angles and amount of throttle.. then you'll be able to rip them feet up...
Re: Help drifting
everyone has pretty much covered it ....from some drift pimps as well...if you want to see an example of not staying on the gas, watch the new ac 4 promo that was posted up and that will give you a show of what happends in a high side

Also the can can far side stuff was cool, and haven't seen the RL drifting on the front pegs much either.... and good to see people working on figure 8's too.
Re: Help drifting

it's like teaching someone to roll on idle... lower their tire psi to about 10, they only have to worry about brake and throttle, not side to side, and therefore can learn to catch idle very quickly, in a couple hours compared to a couple weeks... then they have to start airing up right away to unlearn the bad habit (low psi)...
Re: Help drifting
Nope, I'm right handed 
I need to get back into drifting but my tire supply dried up so I havn't been doing much lately
Re: Help drifting
