Re: How bout a 12\'oClock 101?

I am working on my 12,s. Do you need to re gear your bike or will it be ok stock gearing I've been trying from a dead stop and getting it up to 12 but I luped it beacuse I did'nt know what the hell I was doing and had no idea about the back brake I have a 02 gixxer 750 and can learn pretty quick so if you can help out with any more tips I would greatly take any ideas.
Thanks James

Re: How bout a 12\'oClock 101?

I think you need to put a -3 on the front and a +5 on the rear to bring those 750's up in first like my 1000 does in 3rd.

just talkin some shit.
I still need to see the video.

Re: How bout a 12\'oClock 101?

you need to have the bike AT LEAST at 12 oclock, shorten the bar and cut out the end of your tail box if you have to so you can fit your foot in there. ideally you really want to be slightly past 12, it makes the bike stay like that and slide easier once you move onto the next stage of 12's: tricks while sliding-apehanger, heal clicker, etc. you will still be able to get your foot in there with the bar at 12, you might need to make the bar a little higher though-as in farther from the ground when the bike is on two wheels.

hope it helps,

Re: How bout a 12\'oClock 101?

kick ass... that's the ultimate challenge. But I saw a video the other day where colbert put his left foot in the 12 o'clock bar and made the bike do 2 360 rotations while in a 12 o'clock with about a 6 foot radius. Unnecessary... sick as hell....
