I had a decent wheelie going till i missed the rear brake, ripped the rear tail light off. I also pegged out in a corner that was interesting, you sure do fall fast when that happens. But damn fun!!

you need to learn to back it into the corners. then let the highsides begin!

I did that by accident on sunday following a friend on a sv650. I grabbed alot of front brake clicked down 2 gears and the ass locked up. I was already committed for the corner, put the leg out an twisted the throttle. I dont think im quite ready for all that action yet! Felt natural but need more seat time, cause a high side sounds brutal!

Andy you should come hit the gym with me when you are ready. Im no personal trainer but i have a good bit of knowlege on lifting safely, and diet for are body type.
