Theres no point in having a bar unless you aspire to be one of those sideshow bob types. I'll give it to the bar tricksters, the crowds like that fruity stuff. But if you dont ride for crowds, whats the point in doing bar tricks or having a bar? Even the guys I know that can do every bar trick in the book still thinks they are gay.. "they're just one of those things you gotta have".... not me.. lol. you can have that monkey business.

Re: 12 bar?

short answer, no. Hell no you dont need a bar to learn anything but bar tricks.

is the 04 r6 listed in your profile the bike you are stunting?

The only arguement for having a bar while learning is if you slam the tail hard on accident. Your bike has a cast subframe. Bar or no bar, if you come anywhere close to slamming that thing back you are breaking your subframe and the bikes coming all the way over if you arent on the brake.

If you try to learn 12s with a bar on a bike with a cast subframe, you are gonna be buying a few subframes.

Do what you want, but dont think you have to have a bar to get to the next level. Its not going to help you get there any faster. Take your time, think and be safe. You'll get it in no time.

why ya gotta be like that.the guy wants to know what bars are good. if u don't use a bar, good. if u think bar tricks are garbage, fine. thats ur opinion and ur entitled to it. forcing the guy to think that 12 bars are useless because u don't use one is wrong.

+1....

i think bar tricks are gay too.... but i have a bar. they are good for something besides just bar tricks.... and thats protecting your tail section.... i know if i didnt have one on now i would have gone through a **** load of tail plastics and lights... i ride my bike on the road so having tail lights is a good thing....

and going through the process of learning engine brake, and merk steps and the stall to jump stuff, if flipped quite a few ss's and im glad i have a bar on

Be like what? What am I *being like*? I just told him why you dont HAVE to have a bar to learn 12s. If you want all that crap and think its gonna make you look cool and be a supa stunna then go for it. How about you stop being an accessory **** and making people think they need all this bullshit bolted all over their bike to do some slow wheelies. You dont HAVE to have any of that ****. "it'll save..." blah blah blah... use your head and take it easy and that wont be a problem. There are tons of people that never dropped their bike learning 12s and slowrolls.

I will agree gears, cages and handbrakes are nice once you reach a certain level but you do not need a bar, cage, gears, handbrake on your bike to learn 12s.

Re: 12 bar?

you bunch of damn babies! I'm not flaming.. I feel like I am posting up on http://www.pregnantemotionalb1tches.com/fib/

Dr. Spot. In my opinion no. I learned back in the day thinking I needed a bar. First time I hit it I went barrel rolling down the street. The reason I went barrel rolling down the street is because slow wheelies are wobbly as hell when you first start learning and you dont know what you are doing. Its easy to wobble and hit the corner of the bar that will pitch you sideways. After I fixed my bike I went back at it with no bar and had it in no time and never wrecked again until trying to learn circles way later.

An accessory ****?? I have a bar and a cage. I put both on to minimze the damage I cause to my bike. I dont run any HB or gearing. I wasn't saying that they make anyone ride better. the bar has saved my tail more then once and my bike and I would be in worse shape if I didn't have it. other then that i have farings and a tank bolted to my bike. a seat sometimes to
