Good stuff ![Thumbs Up](images/smilies/thup.gif)
Im still skeered about doin them though. Its just one of those things where if you go down, you know it was your fault for doing it.

Well on my bike, a Ducati 996s modified, you dont have to drop a clutch you just power it up in first, second and third! Good find though!

lol i guess im the only ass who was out tryin for like 20 mins tonight after riding with some peeps lol.
i was on a kinda straight back road headed to my house, 1130 at night. just got in.
and going 15 and slippin the clutch and raising the rmp's, i even tried the left foot on rear peg thing... that was uncomfortable as shit though, made me nervious, but eventually i got it up, and rode for about 1 second before i pussed out and let it back down lol.
moral of the story for some of us...
my bike is impetent... not me!

just started to be able to pop the front up about a month ago. Got a couple of really decent ones before I figured I shouldn't be pressing my luck anymore that night. Also got a hell of a stoppie up that night that almost went a little too far and I tried to do a rolling one and locked up the front which slid a little over a foot. The directions are good and are what I followed bit there's something to be said for just taking it slow and learning to power it up in first though. Can't say enough for a steering damper though after setting a few down crooked. If anyone ever wants to pracice I have a decent spot for late night practices
