RE: some pics from yesterday
Looks good man, I was wondering if your scarping that 12 bar yet?? I was just wondering how it feels. Keep it up with the pics, I need to find someone that knows how to use a camera that doesn't mind following us around to snap pics LOL

The round bar is real smooth when you scrape it..I scraped it the other day in a 2nd gear coaster and didn't even know it hit until everyone was saying I hit the tail and I saw that it ground it down somemore..

RE: some pics from yesterday
Cool, thats good to know. I pulled my first coaster in 2nd gear last week on accident LOL It was weak, brought it up too high and let off the gas but it kept going back, I got the brake just in time. I need to really start working more with the rear brake, but thats what saved me from looping so I'm happy. I think I need new pads cause I have to push the lever pretty few for it to grab, but mabye its just my foot position, where do you put your foot on the peg? I kind of put it right in the arch of my foot, but I might have to almost put my heal on the peg to get a pull feel of the pedal. Sorry for jacking your thread dude

I normally just have my foot right on the arch and one thing that hlped me alot when learning idle was to use my toes on the brake so that I couldn't hit it to hard..I was hitting it way to hard at first with my foot on there regular..About your brake pads get honda pads when you replace them..I got the ebc HH pads cause thats all they had and it was so touchy I couldn't even catch idle cause they bike kept mousetrapping and I put honda pads back and it was way better...
