if not then ur puttin ur horse before ur buggy ... or something like that ...

sounds like u need to be more worried about catching idle ... just my 2 cents

well said - i know alot of ppl that think they have idle on lock, but until you can cruise around with your hand OFF the throttle , you dont

good luck

What up superman?!!! Ken and I came down and rode at a show with you last year...we're coming back in march!!! Try doing foot-down (fag-drag) wheelies. It will teach you how to clutch it straight up to balance and work back brake on idle. That will get you used to being back on balance for no-handers. I've been working on them the past 4 weekends straight just trying to get them down. But, I've never wheelied before either. lol I'm learning to do wheelies this way because it teaches you all the basics of wheelies first: throttle, clutch, brake, steering, at a very reduced rate of speed which means less chances of realllly getting hurt. If dont know what trick i'm talking about watch the video here.

It's my girl Brytni on her 250. She caught on quicker than i did, but she was killin it on a 50 for a year before.
Hope it'll help ya. See ya soon!

let some pressure out of your back tire, and let the engine pull you without having to throttle it at all... just feathering the rear brake... 15MPH isnt even close to idle... Your basically going to put the bike just past balance point and work the break... its easy!

slower you go the harder it will be to balance a stand-up no hander and you'll be fighting the side to side crap. crank that idle up clutch it up, get some good forward momentum so the bike stabilizes, put your handlebars against your upper abs and let go. You don't want to be speeding up/slowing down or going side to side before you let go. Constant=key

get used to doing no throttle handers first.. then lean into the bars (ie bring your chest closer to the upper fairing) and just let go. if you can do NTH then you can do a NH just as easily.

really smooth on brake and center up your weight more forward what works for me, just depends.
