FINALLY Ridin my bike

Ok so summers coming to an end and the ******* dmv sucks so I just tore the stuff to legalize my bike off to stunt and been hittin the lot. today was my third time out and im hittin BP but it wants to tip over to the side when im at it alot. im doin sit downs and i notice sittin back farther helps but the parking lot is a little sloped as well.

im thinkin its a lack of practice issue but was wondering if you guys think its because the parking lot is slitly sloped or have any advice to help pervent this.

scoot up against the tank, be smooth on throttle and take your weight off the pegs...

The DMV is alittle sample of what hells like. If you commit to many sins your gonna spend all of eternity in a giant DMV.

Practice going up the slanted part of the lot. Easier to hit bp for the feeling.

Re: FINALLY Ridin my bike

That 70 tooth sprocket isn't helping your cause. Stock sprockets are best to learn on. If you're going to learn with that gearing then I would suggest finding a nice straight away and clutching it up in 2nd or 3rd. Learn to find the balance point going a little faster and practice smoothing it out. Once you're smooth with the throttle going a little faster then hit the lot and work on slower clutch ups and being smooth with the throttle will come a little more natural. Start almost at a dead stop and clutch it up. Use your brake to catch it and then start working up your idle.

Plus with a smaller sprocket you won't need to go to DMV. You'll be fast enough to run.
