Help with no handers,plus lots of other questions

Just picked up a 300 ex, are they shitty for stuntin? What's the best way to learn no handers and how do I set the idle up? What's the best gear for long wheelies and why does it seem to want to pull to one side when I'm wheeliin'? what's the best way to learn the one wheel? And is it easy to ride out a stoppie?

300's actually aren't bad for stunting :YEAH For learning the no-handers...practice To turn your idle up look on your carb there should be a little screw, turn it clockwise to turn the idle faster, counterclockwise for slower. Best gear for wheelies depends on the rider...generally more distance can be covered at faster speeds, but with enough throttle control you can easily ride them out as long as you wish in any gear. It pulls to one side because your tires are not inflated to the same psi. If it turns right let a little air out of your left tire and vice-versa. Again practice for the one wheeled wheelie...all you gotta do is bicylce until you are leaned over enough, then give it a little gas and pull up hard...basically the simplest method while you won't ride them for very long you can change it a little bit to ride em out longer. Rolling stoppies on quads isn't as easy as sportbikes and stuff but it can be done. But I'm tired so that might not have made any sense...or even been accurate for that matter

Yeah i back brake is always good. dont even try to attempt a no hander unless u can balence it for 200+ feet in 1st or second doing a reg wheelie and 1 handers. its all about balence. 1 foot on the grab bar. one on the right side. have fun and be safe.

Re: Help with no handers,plus lots of other questions

thanks guys, I can ride 'em out in third 4ever.2nd maybe 3 to 400 feet and in 1st 1 to 200 feet. 1 handers, pretty good, the one wheel maybe 5 to 10 foot at best.About the no hander though, do I just set my idle up to the balance point in 1st? I broke my grab bar so I got no place to put my left foot back right now.
