Trying circles, need help

I've been trying to do circles for a couple days now, but I can't get them tight because my bike turns off on me. I have the stock set up, the idle is set at about 2300-2500 (I have no gauges), and my rear air pressure is at 10 psi. Here is the link for a video of several circle attempts.

Re: Trying circles, need help

I couldn't see the video for some reason, but I think I have finally got circles pretty decent, about 7-10 circles everytime, and 3-5 sitdowns. If you are coming 180 and falling, try to lean way back as the bike comes 90 degrees and that will keep the front end up, but its hard to say without seeing the vid.
It said connection lost.

Keep The Nose Up And You Wont Corkscrew Down. As Long As The Nose Is Up The Bike Will Stay In The Circle Alot Easier. Keep Trying, Dont Give Up!!!! We All Know Its The Most Fustrating Trick Out There.

Exactly, sometimes if your stuck @ one point, lay off that trick for a day, and work on some no throttles, or something. Then go back and you'll get it.

Thanks for the feedback. The video should play after you click on the link, just scroll to the bottom of the page. I'll keep trying later today.
