Long story short i tried something new tonigght and well, it went wrong, i ended up hanging off the left side of the bike unable to reach the controls... bike was at 12 moving faster than idle... i didnt want it falling on my legs so i kicked it away from me...

Bike landed HARD on the left side! Hard enough to knock the throttle bodies off! NOTHING else on the bike was hurt, not even the cage!!!

put them back on and finished riding for the night... tomorrow ill check the cage to make sure its tight!!!


AGAIN, BIG props to FI and their diesel *** cage!!! saved my night of riding and a decent amoubt of $$$

 

who are you kidding john you didnt ride tonight....

 

pppfffttt... driving home right now...

learned two new tricks tonight too...

 

im still sitting at the spot... bleeding out of my knee from the bike shutting off on by 3 times in frog circles, finally got full rotations of frogs though, but the good news is i only shot 1 flame tonight but it was a big one... i need a kawi

 

that sucks... two fingers bro, use that clutch...

i learned FIB and NTH... HAHAHAHAHA


get me a new kawi too!!!

 

no no see I guess you didnt listen well enough on the phone today... the friggin bike popped 6fuses tonight, thats why its shutting off

 

oh, in that case maybe you should have learned your lesson the first time and stopped trying to do frog O's til you fixed it... HAHAHA just a thought...

 

learned my lesson, dont talk to me like I am one of your stundents lol... wasnt just frog circles, it was every wheelie, same **** last night but tonight was worse... i need a new bike im tired of honda lol

 

HAHAHAHHA, okay then learn the hard way!

That's right, come over to the dark side! i will show you the ways of the kawi! (or gary can haha)

 

Im not good by any means but


+1 on FI Rockin... :YEAH

Ive dropped mine trying to get 12 and lose it and
It still has been taking a beating..


Props to FI.. :YEAH

 

every single one of us started out just like you!!! glad to hear your cage is keeping you ridng and keeping your bike from breaking too much!

 

Any tips for not Bailing to either side going to 12's

I get close but then want to fall...

 

Lower rear tire pressure... if it still feels like it wants to wobble or fall to the side, let some more air out... for the sake of learning idle and brake control... go ahead and run a really low tire... then once you have it, start increasing psi until you feel comfortable, then increase it again... try to get back up over 20 psi...

when learning though, i have seen guys go as low as 7 psi and it really helped them!



NOTE: when doing this (running low pressure) dont try any stoppies or anything that might bang you rim, it will dent MUCH easier with low psi... this is JUST for learning idle and brake control!!!


keep at it... the more attempts you make the easier it becomes!

 

I was Trying around 20 But It I Drop it down to 10 and
see what happens.. thanks again for your help..


(Oh will deff. not try the stoppies in that time.. )

 

No problem bro! Any other questions post up and if i dont see it and no one else is helping out feel free to PM me!

 

+1 props to fi. I had way more toss downs and highsides than ever this past week. I broke both of my clip ons this week from landings, not crashing. thinking about those fi clip ons to compliment the awsome cage!

 

I apreciate it..




Nice Avvy Too By the Way... :YEAH
