What's the first step?

Hey guyz, what's the FIRST step to start doing slow stuff and 12z,
is it sit down or standup left foot on back peg...?
What's the better way? Scrape first or slow wheelie first? :irked:

learn how to rock it slow and easy. learn the back brake. learn control. then worry about scraping.

Staggered stance, slow wheelie first. practice rear brake control on quads and fiddies first so you know what you're getting into. Good luck! don't be scurred to post up and ask for more advice when needed!

can't stress enough on learning how to rock slow first, and control just like dusty said. Then learn scraping.. It's gay cause all you wanna do is 12, but learn slowness and brake. then 12'ing will come naturally and you'll be rockin.

take video so you can see yourself progress and what you need to work on.

I agree with these guys, but don’t take it to slow or you will scare your self out of it. Just go a try for a day straight non stop….. Good luck :bouncy:

Yeah but what is it, you have to get the bike at the balance point, and after?...
Should I shut the gas a little and rear brake when the bike is at the BP or rear brake before the bike is at the BP?
Or should I don't shut the gas and rear brake after the BP?

And first of all, can you do it with any kind of bike to start because I don't want to smash my GSX1000 that's why I need a 600cc I know. But I have a 99 R1 that I can practice with. (smash bike, but fixed) and i can do like my boyz and put a low-profil (sport car tire) in the back.

what ya want is a regular bike tyre but lower the pressure.

Make sure ya throw a cage on it cuz she's gonna go down hard
