Its not what I'm stuck on but where I'm stuck AT!!
I don't know when the next time we'll be able to ride. Not only do we have like 2 feet of snow here but have had continuous ice storms for the last 2 weeks.
I have cabin fever and want to ride so bad...hell even if its not stuntin' i need to get on my bike.
I HATE WINTER!!!!

I scraped my tail pipe when I was learning, just so I didn't hit the bar so hard, it would send me some other direction..
of course then I hit my exaust wicked hard and it sent me wrecking and flying to the left..
theres nothing better than practice.

yeah i did the same thing except i was able to save it and not fall, how ever i just cut my exhaust down like 4 inches so it wont hit the ground anymore
got the bike last year for bike week. first big bike, had the fifty for about a year before hand. scraped tail the first week, its all about the brake control. been learnin pretty quick. starting to work on idle tricks, need to get a new bike first.

Just started stunting this past summer. Got my 2nd gear standups down alright, I aint got mad blocks or anything, but i'm going to take a few weeks in spring to get back into it, slap a cage on my bike, and go for the 12.

put a bar on it dude, unless you shorty your exhuast. You can't scrape the tail on the SV without hitting the pipe, and the pipe will toss your ass. Trust me I watched BJ do it a bunch haha.

With the shitty weather we're having up here I haven’t been out for the past three weeks. I was getting my speed down good and about six inches from scraping my tail. I'm not getting a bar till I can scrap my tail consistently. I’ll be sure to post video when it happens. :cool:

Stock sprockets are real good for learnign to scrape. Makes it less twitchy

true, I think I may rock a stock sprocket again this season...idk, maybe have a big one laying around in case mid season I deserve it. I'm gonna put a 12 bar on my bike though, I don't want to scrape up my tail, and I don't want to shorty my exhaust.
