Me personally, i think scraping and riding out when you want takes some skill--you really need to know how to 12 the bike and balance it out (you cant scrape and ride out if you bring it back on the bar crooked or you'll fall) , and have a really good feel of the throttle and the brake, and ALSO know exactly what it takes and what your bike sounds like just before it STALLS---I hope this helps--just get out there and do it--you'll get it in no time.

Re: staying on the bike @ 12
yeah..i pull in the clutch when it hits the bar, and twist the bike around to put it back on 2 wheels...i can pretty much do it when i want to now....but as for riding @ 12..im still working on it...
and ofcourse im using my break..why else would i be doing staggered, and NO WAY would i even ATTEMPT to ride @ B.P w/out covering the break....i don't have much rear break controll yet..i prettymuch put the bike back on the ground when i use it during a wheelie (i know..too much break, but w/ my gearing i have ALOT of engine break LUCKILY, cause it's saved my *** a few times) and i got a 50 to help w/ the break controll
btw thanks for the advice guys.....glad the haters haven't jacked this thread yet!
