Ya exactly bro..If I had a SS plate I wouldnt care about trying to 2 foot the bar but as is right now its hard to come in and stall on shit SS coz the seats flat and slippery and coming into a stall bitch pegs is weird and challenging.

yeah i hear there. tried that kneedrag shit from a coaster with one foot on left pass peg yesterday and almost turned into a circle in 2nd gear at about 30mph lol.

let me see what i can do for ya this week man. i know your one of the other main guys who is actually stunting with your 250 so ill try to hook you up first. noone else is doin what were doin with um or noones done pix or vid anyways so it only makes sense to me lol.

these bikes have a ton of engine break you can go past bp and not even touch the brake and itll still come down in most cases, cover the brake but yid be willing to bet your trying to use it to much. relax a bit you look all tense, lean back a little and chill, if your falling outa bp and cant come back up your choppin a ton cuz 2nd has plenty of power to come back up if you let it down some, 3rd n 4th a bit harder and you gotta keep it at bp especially when jumping to spreader or something like that. its much easier to hold a sitdown at bp on these bikes than it is any other bike made pretty much. dont bother with staggered either, just hop on the back pegs with both feet. i dont think ive ever attempted a staggered on my bike lol

cool. thanks for the tips Stubbz. Just waiting on my master and brake line from Bill but he said I should be getting them in the mail this week, then will try standing on the back pegs. I wanted to try it over the weekend, but even with the engine braking being good, last thing I wanted was to clutch it up too high on my 1st attempt and have no way to catch myself. gotta try and keep the bike minty until summer at least! Will be going out to the lot this weekend and will try to post up some more progress pics, or hopefully a vid. I agree that sumo's hold sitdowns the best, I could rip up sitdowns on my tarded out 450 better than this one though. (probably because I'm a squid and need the extra power to get the bike back up to BP when I chop that throttle!)

turn your idle up a bit it should help with the choppiness also. and yeah you did better on the 450 cuz you had plenty of power to do it with ease, thats more of a power wheelie tho id say. what kit did you get from bill? i hope you didnt get the master with the square resy built into it, if so send it back cuz your wasting your money. get a brembo or a magura thats the only way to go. not sure why he even sells those junk brembo masters with the resy built in.

Turning idle up in the lot but not on the street. I ordered the 13mm clutch side from Bill. Only like radial masters. Wouldn't buy that other garbage to save my life. yeah I know the 450 was a cheater wheelie bike, but I plan on getting this 250 on lock!

leave it up a bit on the streets also itll help the jerkiness of your throttle choppin. youll get it man just keep at it your on the best bike to learn a lot in a hurry
