Re: more circle progress.

nice

its hard to learn em tight right away. try large sweeping circles. you wanna learn to dip it in, straighten it out, dip it in, straighten it out, its easier to get the concept down on 50 foot circles. in 2 hours youlll be doing 20 footers

Re: more circle progress.

imo if u learn wide circles it will hinder learning em tight. theres really no similarities in a wide circle and a tight one. keep at the tight ones. id like to give you some advice on how ive been doing em but ur going to the righ so its not really gonna be the same. only thing i can really say is just keep tapping the break nice and smooth and remember that if u lean to the outside of the circle it will tighten up the circle and if u lean into the circle it will make u widen the circle. going left i lean to the outside while kinda pusing my bike away and as it dips in i start to center myself and then adjust accordingly break/gas/body position. im gettin 4 or 5 most of the time before my arms start gettin tired, seems like once u learn to control them is when the battle really begins, keep at it and good luck.

good advice man,
the problem is every time Ive tried to explain the tighten/widen, highside/lowside concept, I just get the deer in the headlights. All they hear is gas brake clutch gas brake turn gas brake. In my opinion you gotta learn the basical mechanics of turning a motorcycle on one wheel by doing large circles.
but then again i didnt get to circles in 3 months :YEAH

and with learning circles, if you feel one getting away from you, be ready to thumb the kill switch or mash the brake hard so it stalls and doesnt get away

haha oh i learned that very fast, first time i almost lost my bike into a river, stopped it just in time, second time i ran my own head over, 3rd time i launched my bike at a curb did 2 flips and almost destroyed an suv!! all from highsiding and jumping off still holding the bars tryin to bring the bike down and then accidentally gassing it. scary ****, im not too good with hitting the kill switch, now when i feel the highside i just pull the clutch and lean with it and i can set it down fine.

Re: more circle progress.

i wouldnt worry about covering it on highway wheelies, it took me awhile to make it natural now when im riding street/highway i have to force myself to not cover it so i can hold on better/longer
