SCARED! looping.
OK.
#1.. I am still learning!!! so take it easy on me ok?
I left for lunch today and pulled her up just like I always do... (only biker in the building makes it a lil fun to do... always get comments when I come back)
I'm not yet really using the rear brake, (although I cover it) I'm mainly just bouncing the throttle.
I brought it up as normal and damn near looped it!!!
it's just a first gear roll-on. I don't clutch it or anything...
Any suggestions other than "learn to effin wheelie!"
should I try slower wheelies standing up?
or keep my sit-downs and learn to use the rear brake?

Re: SCARED! looping.
how bout you practice? seriously just practice but do it in a safe environment where you dont feel any pressure. im sure your adrenalin is pumpin when you know allyour co workers are watchin ya. if you want to get serious about stuntin learn to use the clutch, if you jus wanna play around practice any way you want, as long as your havin fun

off the throttle wheelies tend to be a little more unpredictable then the clutched ones, I would say start learing your clutch... Coming too far back is all a part of learning where your balance point is. You have your rear brake covered just make sure you know how to use it

Just take ur time and practice, dont do them to impress your co-workers becuase on the day you fall, that would suck. "big ego punch".....So take it slow and practice, that is the way to do it.
