This seem to be the hardest part about riding for me.
Right turns at a stop = pain in the ass for me .
any advice for the newb?
Other than that riding fun as hell !

 

Raise the bike back up and lean that Biotch!!!

 

Slip that clutch and rev the motor a little. The engine RPMs'll stabilize the bike.

 

HA dude.. how back get a friggin front tire for that thing before you kill yourself..


Stephen remember my front tire on the blue r6? His is just as bad.


I do know what you mean though, if you're pulling out of a gas station or something onto a main road and you dont have much room to work with (aka you cant lean) it kinda sucks. Just wait for a good break in traffic and ease into it, making sure to look in the direction you want to go. I used to look at the ground and thats a big NO NO. Just check the ground before hand to see how much room you have around the curb.

 

If your tire is anything near as bad as Koolaidy's you NEED to replace it. Your probably having a hard time turning because the bike is fighting you due to the wore out front tire. Just because cords arent showing doesnt mean it doesnt need to be replaced.

 

well my friend can ride it perfect .. he says i just need to learn and slip the clutch while holding the thottle steady .. says the tire has nothing to do with it

 

tires have alot to do with teh way the bike rides.. i know iv rode on sum shity tires before..

 

your friend's probably right. just get more accustomed to the throttle and controlling it and you should be fine. also try supporting yourself with your knees on the tank so you're not putting your weight on the clip-ons. that should help relieve your weight off your throttle hand to allow for easier throttle control.

 

Yeah your probably right. I rarely know what I'm talking about anyway.
