It feels Good to Win,dunnitt? You lock your bars over there and nobody is messing with your gas,,
My problem with the drag bars was how much weight I had to put on my hands because I was leaned forward to reach them. Remember, in a turn having weight on the bars is detrimental to the best handling. Elbows down and able to wiggle them because the arms are relaxed is the goal. Head up,eyes up, lookin for the exit . On the Third reading of Twist of the Wrist II I finally snapped to Why I get out of balance at a stop. I was looking down at the road the front tire was stopping on. That Might have been from a stop that became a Drop, because of sand right in front of the stop sign. It went down and I was standing with it between my feet. Bent down, grabbed the bars, stood it up, a frikken One mph crash.. So now I'm doing the Remedial thing,, the voice in my head coaching me in stops, Eyeball the road surface on approach, and bring it to a halt with eyes up,and staying stable is So much easier. Yeah, using the rear brake for the last bit of gettin it stopped is another thing I'm working on.
Good job on your setup.
