So Im rocking a steady 4 circles and I realized I can't even do a ******* coaster. Time to change that. To start off I would like to do them staggered. 1st gear rip a wheelie, get past bp, pull in clutch, then what the hell do I expect? The front to slam to the ground? My sub frame to cry?

Thanks!

 

I can't do them, but I would imagine you will need to use the rear break to stay as close to behind balance point as possible without going under. I believe your break inputs will need to be a bit stronger than being in a gear due to no engine break.

 

well thats helpful lol

 

throw it past BP, pull in the clutch, and be real easy on the brake

 

coasters can be brutal if not careful

 

amirite?

 

do that and tell me how that works out for ya.....

 

Right on that.

 

please get it on video when you try it like that please!

 

Costers are sooooo fucken easy! once you try them your like WOW all the worry for what???!! try them sit down 1st.... and in like 20 min you'll be doing speader costers! there that easy!

 

I learned them sit down because thats where im most comfortable, may be different for you. start off slow. first gear bring the bike up and watch your forks. when they are parallel with the ground pull in the clutch. you dont have to be hauling *** at this point. your just wanting to learn what brake input is going to keep the bike up and not make it slam forward. dont stab the brake just massage it. coasters are a finess trick. just like no handers, your not standing on the brake your using the brake. on off on off. your body should be as still as possible. when learning your bike will probably come back to far and hit the bar (mine did quite a few times.) once you have pulled the clutch in a few times you will realize its not really as bad as you would think. its one of my favorite tricks. its also a hard trick to explain with a keyboard as im finding out right now.

everything should be smooth at this point, you will see guys that know how to do them good whip it back kind of violent . thats not what you want right now, youll just gorilla scrape and probably wad ***. just come back smooth and pull in the clutch when you get your forks right. youll only be coasting a few feet at a time in the beginning because you will stab the brakes the first few attempts, dont let out of the clutch until you are in front of balance point. if this sounds chopped up its because ive had a few drinks tonite go out and try it and post up what you learned and i can try and explain it further. this typing **** sucks. i learned COASTERS from the level x videos i bought a few years ago. they may help you more than reading through my ramblings.

 

You learned to type from the level x videos?


DAAAAAMN did'nt know they had one on typing they're gonna be like the idiots guides soon. Level x on sex coming sept 2010.

**** you for editing your post.

coasters are hard

they need less brake and you to be past bp

other wise this happens

 

**** you for only quoting part of my post. and i gave you credit in the reason for editing section.

as soon as you pull in the clutch bounce it off the revlimiter... its the best way to learn

 

HOly **** aint that a familiar sight. I just mouse trapped jumping to frog the other day.

THanks for all the info guys, keep it coming if you know of more tips!


and as funny as that is.....that info could seriously hurt or kill someone.

 

dont take advice from stunt riders on a forum... go learn on your own...

 

just be really really gentle on the brake coz you dont have the engine pushing against it
