just learn to ease it down a little more. be careful with the front its a pain in the ass to replace the front forks if you bend em or break the seal

Roll on... Roll off, and it should come down smooth. Real bad for the forks though.

I think you and me both should be clutching it up instead... I''m trying to quit doing power wheelies but in second gear standing up it''s so tempting
