Well... I guess I am first?

  

BlindLOKI -> Well... I guess I am first? (7/8/2006 12:52:49 AM)

Hey guys, heres my feeble attempts at teh whoolies. I know, they are garbage, but its fun and Im learning. I dont think its helping my learning curve much that I have a rear tire thats flatspotting like no other, but im not gonna blame it on that. Im new, and these definately arent my best, just the ones we happened to catch on camera.... enjoy [:-]


p.s. any of you guys that are good, am I doin anything wrong? Im bringin it to where its getting light and then puttin it back down. learnin the basics for now.


Sorry, its in quicktime... i dont know how to get it out of quick time, or link them together :S

http://www.putfile.com/blindloki wheel 1-4... also on this page are my compilations, none of them have me or people i know, just a bunch of random vids... but they are good, and not in quicktime [;)]

dude whatever those are good enough, your not twelve o'clockin it, but the "wheel4" and "wheel2-58" vids were tight. Prolly wouldnt be seen as stunting but a wheelie like that is what i like to do to keep the "stunter" inside me happy. Are you just powering those up?

BlindLOKI -> RE: Well... I guess I am first? (7/8/2006 12:22:12 PM)

I was clutchin those up. My bike doesnt seem to have the power to bring it up just givin it gas, unless i get way up in the rev range.... clutching feels a lot better to me also, a little more consistent.


thanks for the comments :)

LOL thats funny, I guess I keep my "stunter" inside real happy LOL. Thats great, but the wheelies look good. I could tell that you clutched at least one but couldn't really tell with the rest, or I wasn't really listening good enough. Just keep practicing and you'll get better. You can't go out and expect to pull off 12 wheelies the first day. Mabye tomorrow I'll get my brother to come out and shoot some clips and I'll post them.

blind, what sprocket settup do you have?, thoes look good, you just have to find the right rpm to cluch it at and get it up quick and modulate the throttle and keep it neer the ballance piont, but im no expert. if i new how to post up some vids, i would. i want to learn how to post pics and vids realy bad, what web sight do you go to and start your own gallery to paste links to?????????

jwp6114 -> RE: Well... I guess I am first? (7/8/2006 7:47:45 PM)

found it, i just registered to putfile.com, i will have to shoot some video's

BlindLOKI -> RE: Well... I guess I am first? (7/9/2006 1:26:11 AM)

Im sittin at -1 +2 on a 520 conversion. seriously thinkin about going with the same setup only in a 525... I gotta adjust the chain quite a bit it seems... would that help with crankin em up? less chain stretch = better power being put down?


I can bring them to bp if I would like, but im not wanting to at the moment lol. Had a few minor scares and id like to keep it below bp untill I get the confidence/control to ride em out a ways.

thanks for the comment :)

Err -> RE: Well... I guess I am first? (7/9/2006 2:34:10 PM)

the -1/+2 combo for the 600rr is the shit, my buddies got that setup on his and i'm in love with that bike.

keep your chain tight! i don't think it wil help in hoisting the front (practice makes it easier to get the front up [;)] ) but i'm not sure. go with a 525 or 530 chain won't wear as fast as the 520. (keep in mind if you just put that 520 on it will stretch a lot in the first couple weeks of use)

becareful with those minty bikes i noticed alot of you guys have, i know i'd be pissed if i dumped it. get a cage or a powers rail so your bike has some protection.

LOL I like that "minty bikes" my bike looks good from 10' or so ,but its got some imperfections. I'm always hunting on ebay for spare plastics just incase I might need them. I'm getting a cage this winter for sure, but may get one before the summer is over.

Err -> RE: Well... I guess I am first? (7/9/2006 11:05:17 PM)

i don't have any plastics on the 9hundo. i'm learning how to stunt, so i've accepted that fact that i'm going to fall (just looped tonight, again...finally learning rear brake though) and break stuff. so i'll learn then get me a nice minty bike when i don't fall quite so often.

anyone know how to get video from an actual tape onto the comp?

twistatech -> RE: Well... I guess I am first? (7/10/2006 8:03:43 AM)

i run my video right off the camera... what kinda tape are you talkin bout a vhs tape??? do they even have them anymore??? hahaha yeah i have no idea, i just run mine off my camera with the usb cable....

Err -> RE: Well... I guess I am first? (7/10/2006 11:23:48 AM)
