Re: 12's

I'll bet you by a week after I get home that's the 30th of July I'll have a video of me riding out a BP wheelie for 1/4 mile at least.

I have friends but none of them can drive so trying to get wheelie footage is hard since I can't drive them to the spot to take the video.

Re: 12's

Ok when I get home I'm gonna practice riding the rear brake when it comes up to make sure my foot is always on it. I'll just keep it barely on it enough to grab.

Re: 12's

just as a personal preference, i learned to do b/p wheelies standing first, you'll also no when your atb/p, because you will be lookin' through the forks to see were your going. it's also easier to see if you take out your induction tubes...

Re: 12's

I'm still figuring out how to stand up. I have been trying to stand up after I clutch it and i'm on the gas but every time it drops back down. Do I need to give it more throttle than normal as I'm standing up?

Re: 12's

as you stand up your pushing the bike down...it just takes practice, and throttle control....be careful...

WHat the hell does age got to do with it??? The guys profile says 27.....hes still a young guy, BUT at the same time probably has 4 or 5 years under his belt. You can't replace experience, and I know alot of guys 27 and older that are still cool and stunt etc....

I was gonna standup for you until I read your last post dude. You seem like your asking the rigth questions, and your trying, but when you post something dumb like that.......I don't know.

The guy goes out of his way to try and help you out......guys like you stickin' it to him is whats gonna stop the experienced from helping the newbies. This is my first year I've dedicated to stunting (3rd year riding total) I wouldn't have learned 1/2 of this **** without nbeing shown the proper way.

my is just that, but show some respect!

Re: 12's

So what im 19 and hang out with guys from 15 to 30 yrs old. There are no rich ****in kids around who can ride streetbikes, so I ride with older guys 40+ yrs old. We are friends and ride and have fun. Noone of them stunts but they are cool.

"I don't talk to a phone"

WTF is the matter with you!

What freekin bp are you talking about. Get some ballz first. You ain't never gona be a stunna without some ballz and some crashes. Three weeks ago I looped my bike trying to go over bp at 95 mph. ****ed myself up. Still fixing bike (and myself), and when I do I'll move on to the next level - slow mo - cuz I learned something from that fall. Sunter school has it's price - and if you can't afford yourself to pay it get the **** outa here. I am not a rich kid as you. I am 19 and bought myself this bike, I spiled too much sweat and blood to buy it, and still have a heart and soul and BALLZ to rip it. I also fell in the center of the city 3 months ago and ****ed up bike and myself. here are some pics, just so you know what to expect, these are from both falls:

Re: 12's

Slow down man you just started doing sit downs and you want to hit a twelve?!
At least learn to do a standup! WTF you don't even understand how to use the rear brake. Slow down before you hurt somebody.

Re: 12's

I am learning standups. I never said I wanted to 12, I want to know what it feels like when you go past it so I can react quicky since I'm pretty new to BP.

How do you know if I'm spoiled or not? You don't know anything about me and you jump to conclusions that because I'm young and I have a 4500 dollar bike that I'm some spoiled rich kid.

I gave up my car to get it and it's my only form of transportation. Excuse me if I would like to take safety procautions, wear my space suit, and ask about things before I go and total a bike I don't have full coverage on and can't afford to fix.
