Re: HC Tips N Tricks...

lean back, lock your arms, relax your legs, when bringin it down do it gently cuz you'll *** up your forks and fly over. It's easy to go up, just don't screw it goin down...

I'll second that!

Also, just start off small and work your way up.

Dont power through them to anywhere near the redline. When you are riding em, lean back and dont worry about trying to see over the upper. If you are on a full faired bike you cannot see where you are going. If you can, you are doing it wrong. Or you are an ogre. one of the two.

Re: HC Tips N Tricks...

make sure you can get back down from the HC postion,and can stop the bike quickly with the front brake..other than that hang on and try not to slam down.

it's all the same to me but just positioned differently on the bike. When i do mine, i can't see over the windscreen....i listen for the engine braking and i can distinguish how much higher i can go without looping.

Re: HC Tips N Tricks...

Not being able to see over the windscreen is at the bp and a very comfortable place to ride a highchair. Doodle and everyone else, im not tryin to be a D!ck but this is serious stuff and it only takes a simple mistake from something sombody told you to do to get hurt.

i 2nd that.........hey doodle, have you scraped your 12 bar yet????? (i remember when you put it on, a few months ago, right.....just wondering if you've scraped it yet) no one should give advise on how to do something if they can't even do it themselves.........

highchairs are very easy.........just make sure you are comfortable riding in the highchair position, and comfortable doin wheelies using engine brake instead of the rear brake.......once you have both of these, just put it together......they are basic.......

Re: HC Tips N Tricks...

sweet i really appreciate all the advice...i didn't venture into HC's today tho...but after readin all this, it gave me some confidence... just slap some pink grip tape on your tank and you will have no problem with spreaders.. it's just a ***** with tape tho cuz it tears the **** outta your pants... anyway, my only concern now i think is comin down... i don't wanna tag limiter and slam hard..and i don't wanna be a ***** and chop the throttle quick, so today i spent workin on 1st gear bp a lil..and testin just how far back i can go without too much brake... i'll let everyone know the progress as it happens..but keep postin, it'll help me out thanks


p.s. tony you're the man at hc's
