Lookin good neil!!!
Well here is my advice. You are comming out of idle. Try to slow the speed down almost to the point to where you think its going to stall and be real easy on your rear brake. You wanna use the idle as much as you can and not the throttle. Work your body positioning and brake more than you do the throttle.
you keep comming out of the balance point. When you feel you may have given a little too much brake or its about to highside or fall too far forward out of balance. You should lean your weight back, put more weight to your left foot. Not that you have much weight to work with LOL. But when you start to engage into the circle keep your body up close to the bars and when you start to fall or highside, strech your arms and put your weight back.
Your doin damn good, wish I could ride with ya some more before I go home. But I will see you when you get back this summer, and you'll probably have em on lock by then. Later!!!!

yah im workin the body positioning , i dont think its that, think z unit is right gotta get on the gas sooner. btw brian, i finally got the balls to try coasters last night and got em good in 1st and 2nd, not as hard as i thought theyd be. i think i might take that hand brake so make sure you get ahold of me before you leave!!

you got db bars right it looks like your putting your foot on the pas peg try doing them with your left leg on the seat or in the trunck its much easyer.
also i sent the money order for the exhaust you should have it monday or tuseday
