Rather than make a new thread everytime I need advice... I thought I'd make my own everlasting type thread!
Two main things first...
First,
I really want to do stoppies and I can only get my front tire to grab about 35% of the time and it has to be going downhill otherwise it washes out... and I almost eat shit! (What's new with Kelm..)
Right now I grab a handful of brake and grip my knees on the tank and bounce foward... it squeals and then hooks up high... I know isn't smooth but it seems as if it's the only way to get it up!
Do you have any tips? Tire Pressure, Technique, etc... I want to least be able to get them 50% of the time without the front washing out, and yes I warmed it up I rode three miles so they should be warmed up enough I would think.
Second,
I'm doing highchairs now (on the tank, bitches!) and my left leg rests to the left side of the ignition and my right to the right side... I'm really afraid my key is gonna get turned off mid wheelie and I'll eat shit real bad, anything you can recommend I do?
Thanks all!
