Simply STUNNING photography, looks to be very very high shutter speed (1/1000th?) yet fairly open aperature as well.

Please share your equipment and settings.

Wrong thread, methinks.

But now I really want to take a look at whatever photos he's talking about.

you are still doing it wrong. You need to keep your feet on the pegs.

Anybody notice the two stroke has no rear brake at all.

I did not. Now it's clear why he's so out of control

on a 4 stroke I wouldn't use it, on the 2 sometimes

I use my front a lot and tap my rear to get a slide started in some corners.
Can't just lay off the gas and slide with engine brakin'.

But, I'm probably doing it wrong.

You and me both. I don't use my brakes at all. I thought we discussed this already

I will hit the rear to break it loose, but as soon as I let off the brake it hooks up. There is no continued slide

I don't use the front much at all. I think I'm riding better this year, especially the second half. And then just as I'm starting to feel pretty good about myself, That pesky 312 goes by me on one wheel

It's like Supermoto. Downshift, and dabbing the front to loosen the rear and kicking it out. The last time I was out, I was trying to work on carrying more speed into and through hairpins.

Sure now everybody is giving their secrets away.
I just only a couple of weeks ago turned the compression up form the minimun that they were set at for woods riding.
That sure helped.

I jacked up compression on the rear, preload on the front. way less feeling of "oh shit it's gonna pogo"

Zed going to Candy's party saturday night?
