    Getting it up is the hard part. After that it's just a matter of balancing the throttle, clutch, and rear brake to maintain balance.

    I hope you are doing this on a track or a closed parking lot and not on the street.

    as Rich stated, its all about clutch, throttle & brake controll!!!! Practice practice practice! & keep some extra $$ for a new clutch!

    Yeah i will practice as much as possible. And i alredy have the money for a new clutch.
    Thank you for the info. The reason I want to learn is in the long run i want to become a stunt rider, and i figure i should start off small.

    be sure to iinvest in frame sliders & an engine cage as soon as you can.... also, down the road step up to a zx6, r6 etc. and you will find everything is much easier!!

    You will drop it sooner or later. Probably sooner.

    I will as soon as i get some more money. I've already been down comin around a corner and hit a big patch of dirt and sand, minor damage on the bodywork, but i got back up.
    I'm currently looking at r6s and gsxrs and hope to move up to one soon.

    also if you are serious about getting into stunt riding, know that you will want to change your rear sprocket out for a bigger one with more teeth & will need to retrofit your bike with a modified handbrake for the rear brakes
