Re: my 2 new toys
yeah i just cant grasp the concept of working the clutch to help myself out.... i try a few coasters, but almost every time they get close to disaster.... my clutch skills are seriously lacking... maybe i should practice some slow scrapes and use the clutch to get me off... remember i only been doing more than standups, and scrapes since sept

clutch work is different, but once you get better at it, slow stuff is easier. it helps you pause and ****. if you need help, i can help with coasters...i love them. they are my 1 true trick that is the symbol of me.
high speed drags aren't that bad though, you can do it without a clutch, just lean back when it starts to fall let off the brake then it drags, grab a handfull of brake and get off the throttle.....whala

Re: my 2 new toys
coasters are easy. go right behind bp pull in clutch catch with brake. when you get smooth and knwo your bike well youll be able to pull it in and not use barely any brake initially. also the faster you come into the coaster the easier. the slower it gets the harder. i was into fast coasters but then i just started doing them slow (30mph) and tried to ride it to a stop... tap brake to bring the front down then clutch out of it keeping the whoolie going.
but that **** aint happening on the 636. not that used to the bike
PS you dont need clutch for REAL Os. gas them beotches.

oh, i guess i heard the wrong info paul.
and vetter, you can't do them yet? don't be a sissy, i was doing everything i normally do on tony's 636 in about 5 minutes.
you better watch out though, i was very close to the 1000ft mark last weekend and that was with a 200 foot runup and 45mph.....things are getting sicker and sicker by the day.

Re: my 2 new toys
they take time and smooth brake. the whole trick to good coasters is being able to over-ride your panic function. when you grab that clutch and it comes back people always get a little panicy and want to push too hard on the brake...i know, i do it too when i'm going for distance. coming in pinned 5th gear on my gixxer at 80 is a rush when i throw it back hard and sometimes i give a little too much brake. it's all good though, just throw it back and barely touch the brake, there actually is a lot more room to fall back than it feels like.
if the bar taps the ground just give a ltitle brake and it comes right back off the ground.

Re: my 2 new toys
best on coasters? i'm an average rider at best right now, i used to be in the good category many years back, but now with all this new **** and me not riding i'm down to average...but coasters, those are my thing. if more comps had a coaster comp i would have more trophies in my closet, but people are afraid vetter, they are very afraid.

Re: my 2 new toys
ya, i hear the getting hurt thing. i have medical school coming up and bills to pay, i can't afford another broken back and pelvis.
and coasters are great on the street. that's my friend's favorite thing, we'll be killing the streets and i'll throw one back and rev-limit that bitch then bring it down and re-establish the whoolie....it's great fun. now if i could just get my SS coasters. i AM a little nervous about learning those. then i need to turn my sitdowns into no handers.

Re: my 2 new toys
did paul also tell you that your **** smells like roses?i honestly couldn't say who is the best in indiana. i know brandon appears to have some parking lot skills like no other and chuck is getting there. mine is ok but most of my stuff is street, parking lot was just coming into the scene when i got hurt so i did enough to learn O's and slow SS and highchair scrapes then i got tore up.

Re: my 2 new toys
<-- jokes
i ride for fun. i dont care who the best is. all i know is that i had a blast riding last satruday.
i have a tendency not to work on new stuff rather than repeat all my old stuff.
