Re: Cover your handbrake kids
lol...ya, i was in a standup once and went over the front also,...well front and side. I wrecked and busted up the front cowel so when i got her home i stripped it all down and left the gauges and all that BS on. well I didn't exactly realize the black box was a tip sensor...lol I stuffed it in a hole and went on my way stuntin. about 1-2 minutes into a standup 2nd gear wheelie and the bike shut off! dumb dumb put the sensor in a way that made it shut you down for a wheelie instaed of when you fall on the side....sensor is long gone now, but damn that was the hard way to learn.....my hip bone is still killin me

Re: Cover your handbrake kids
Yeah man ya gotta cover that handbrake.. I would never do SS wheelie with out a hand on the brakes. Never know when your gonna have to slow it down or something like that. would you have been off the HB if you were in HC. I dont think so.. This is a case of lazy stunter. lol.

So you can not do a HC without a HB

I think the funniest crash I saw was my buddy get bucked over the bars of his 929. He was sliding on his back at about 20 mph with the bike following still upright. He was trying to kick the front wheel to get it to lay down but it never did.... until it ran over his leg. Of course it had to happen when I put the camara down.

You run out of gas in a striaght line combo and you'll be glad you were covering the clutch. Its happend to me.

and, you need to rider harder on the streets! if you're not doing rev limiter coasters or dragging the rear jump to 50/50 or something crazy then you're just wasting a lane on the street
i'm always doing some sort of wild coast or something stupid on the streets

rap it back with high rpms and pull the clutch in as it falls back on the bar, then snap the clutch out to pop the front down. works great and is super smooth.
