Re: How long did it take to make your first circle?

It didn't take me long to do one circle, but I'm still learning to do more than that. I'm doing between 2 and 5 now, and I'm still inconsistent and usually don't get more than 3.
It'll come.

Took just over a month to start doing SS circles... but worked all year on all sorts of different types and they're lookin pretty good. Footbrake circles are considerably harder than handbrake circles.. but easier to clutch stall out of.

Re: How long did it take to make your first circle?

it aint about how long it took 4,000 people to learn them. its about riding EVERY single day in **** *** weather and putting in the hard work that it takes to get them. you WILL get them. you're on the computer right now. turn it off and fire up the bike. "eh my clutch finger is tired" "i have to work tommorow" **** that. fire that bike up right now and dont stop till 3 am.

Re: How long did it take to make your first circle?

I think it was about 2 weeks of deciding to try and learn that I did a full circle. I don't have em on lock can't do more than one occ. 1na1/2. What sucks is I'm now a marked man on a small island with a reckless pending and four citations they forgot(waited) to give to me issued over a month ago, so out satanding i'm guessing. Hired a lawery and am laying low till I get this BS sorted out. Got the bike, got the pavement just can't combine the 2 right now the way I like, next court date June...FTP
