anyone got any input....heres a pic beleive it or not right there im in idle but does it look like im to far back or what...ill try to find a pic of one with me closer to the bike so you can see how crazy it looks on my arms..
you are deff not stag in this pic. i would deff try stag it would make you feel like you are just standing up normal and can put your weight on back pegs. then once you get a hb put both feet on back pegs makes it alot better on hands

Re: need some info my hand are killing me

Dirt bike bars put more weight on your arms because they make you lean back farther. They're great for seat stander and fib, but not good at all for on the pegs.
