Q about standups
I clutch up in 1st 2nd and 3rd, I'm not really that comfortable with shifting in the air, I can do it (usually) but it makes me nervous, I was thinking maybe it would be easier if I could SEE, so I thought I'd try some standups, I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong though. I can't even get it to work in 1st, I've tried sitting and standing once the bike comes up, that almost ended up bad, so I tried standing and leaning over forward on the bike, but anytime I dump the clutch it throws me backwards before the wheel ever comes close to coming off the ground, I don't wanna grab on the bars too hard cause I don't wanna come down crossed up. Anyone have suggestions on how to get up standing? A picture of the positing directly before or during the launch of a standup might help. Thanks
