so i was coming home from pp1 last night and i was kinda bored, when suddenly i said fuck it and i tried doing stand ups. i rode about 5 decent ones. It was kinda scary at first but then i kinda got used to the front end coming up kinda fast, my left leg is sore now cause i was trying staggards but hopefully i can learn to master them just like yall pros. any tips?:icon_thum

motofreak your info says 50th anny r6...but isn't the r6 like 7 or 8 years old? i think thats dumb for them to put a sticker on the 06 that says that...im not saying this is a rude way at all so dont hate or get mad..im just curious

practice,practice and more practice will make you comfortable...if thats what your asking...and hitting balance point will let you keep it there...it's not as easy as it looks..i hit bp every now and then but i still chase em

Of course not man, just a little invious because the only way I can get the Hurricane up @ 572 lbs is in first gear only. :nod: Isn't this heavier than the Busa? :confused1 Anyway what if I was being sarcastic? What of it?:icon_bigg
