Re: 12 bar trend?
What I don't get is if these kids are buying them to look like stunt riders why don't they scrape it up on the drive way and hit it with a hammer and **** before they put them on?!?! at least then it might look a bit convincing?

Re: 12 bar trend?
When I get new 12 bars I just scrape it across the ground A bunch before I install it so people think I'm good. Then When people ask me "Hey so you stunt" I say "Look at my ******* 12bar, Does it look like I stunt?"...YEA it shuts them right up..But then they ask me to do A wheelie out of the place and I respond with "Oh sorry man' I don't have my handbrake hooked up so I can't do wheelies right now" Because everyone knows you need A handbrake to do wheelies..

if you decide to attempt it just make sure youre moving pretty good, it takes a lot more brake and momentem then you would think to throw you back over once you scrape.

On my GSXR everyone scraped that before me 
Not on the F4i tho 
I was the first **** puttin scrapes on that bar :YEAHTook me forever to be able to ride off from the scrape but I was parking it on the bar like crazy trying to learn that brake initially. I shoulda made a wooden 12bar like ants
