In Your Opinion Which Is Better?
 

Just starting to learn the slow stuff and wanted to put on a Hand Brake System... My Question is... Is it to better to discipline yourself and just learn with the foot brake... Or throw on the Hand Brake as a "safety precaution" in order to Help you learn how to use the foot brake?

Re: In Your Opinion Which Is Better?
 

Foot Brake. Become one with that motherfucker....LOL

HB's generally come after you got all the basics down on lock and you start moving to alot more technical shit.....

[B][SIZE="7"]NO[/SIZE][/B], just use the foot brake... handbrake is throwing too much in to the mix too soon. You only need a handbrake when you want to slow down seat standers and spreaders and off-peg tricks like that. Learn to scrape standups and sitdowns with the footbrake first.:2cents

im sorry, i dont get it:shruggs

Re: In Your Opinion Which Is Better?
 

Definitly learn with the foot brake...there is so much to learn before you even think of getting a hand brake...

...and I don't get the bags of sand comment either...:shruggs

Re: In Your Opinion Which Is Better?
 

i say it depends on what type of rider you want to be. if you want to learn with a HB, go for it. :shruggs
i personally dont even have a HB yet, i feel theres A LOT to learn without one...

Oh yeah...CHIRPIN4th > What the hell is goin on in your avatar? Did you lower the bike or what is that...it looks weird//

the bags of sand reference is from the movie 40 year old virgin. the virgin dude and his boys are all sitting around talking about women and the virgin guy tries to pretend like hes been with lots of women and he goes, 'you know when youre feeling on a girls breasts and they feel like bags of sand.'

Ahhh yeah, I remember now...

Re: In Your Opinion Which Is Better?
 

This may sound totally retarded but I'm not covering the rear brake AT ALL.
I've looped twice when I 1st started (1st gear power wheelies).
But I'm just about BP now w/no brake coverage.
The foot angle seems so hokey, but I know I need to get on it.

If you still dont get it he means you are talking about something you dont know about ........

For the streets or lets say faster shit i dont cover the brake, i like to be on the balls of my feet, for them, there is enough engine brake at high speeds to slow it down:2cents unless you want to do a fast coaster

Re: In Your Opinion Which Is Better?
 

oh yah and do 8-10 circle before you put a hand brake on IMO:2cents
