broke my right peg off the other day bouncin em up... damn near fell off. i thought my foot slipped but when i looked down I saw that i only had half a right peg. scared the shit outta me..LOL i weigh 240 which is probably too much to be bouncin on the stock pegs. i bounce it pretty hard to get 3rd gear (no clutch, -1 front) so i guess it really doesnt surprise.

just a heads up, be careful

I bought a set of Sato rearsets, they're tough as hell. I clutch 'em up though so I don't really have to worry about bouncing on my pegs.

ive heard of this happening. yet another reason NOT to bounce wheelies and to use the clutch.

glad you are ok. 3rd gears are awfully fast especially if you have stock gearing

i wouldnt mind clutchin em up, just cant get used to the feeling of clutchin while standing... always feels like it wants to kick me off the back. i clutch up sitdowns all day though, so i guess i need to get more practice.

Ya, once you get the feel of the clutch it's the only way, it's almost a joke how easy it is to bring it up once you know how.

clutching with a small bounce is fine. just practice and it'll come tp ya.
