back pegs stand up

i learned how to clutch my bike up and do stand ups on the highway and i like the way i do it now but i was just curious as to how you guys do yoru standups on the back pegs? and i was wondering if there was any advice for clutching it up in third on a stock 04 gsxr 600

the back pegs? i hope you didnt mean both of them. right foot always stays right next to that magical rear brake. and as far as bringing it up in 3rd...why the hell would u do that?

Re: back pegs stand up

i was just curious to see if bringing it up in third would allow longer wheelies @ freeway speed with lower rpms plus i have to slow down to @ least 45 to bring it up in 2nd or my rpms are to high and i suppose taking my right foot away from teh brake would be a little foolish

if u are not used to using the brake then i recommend staying in 2nd at higher rpms so u have the engine brake associated with those rpms. but if u insist on bringin up in third just clutch and bounce, it will coem up just fine if u do it right. just take practice

Re: back pegs stand up

about using the brake i just seem to have trouble getting comfortable keeping my foot over it i dunno if its cuz i wear a size 13 or what but usually my foot it angled towards the side or even sometimes below the brake just becasue its more comfortable to bring it up that way

i have the same size feet as u so thats not it. before i learned to 12 i has trouble with it too. i always had my foot under it and luckily i have good throttle control and never needed it. but i def. recommend teaching yourself to cover it. no matter how uncomfortable it is
