hey iceracer seen your flip on your 125,i am the mono king down here in australia 2010 monster kx 500 afx registered and can do 1-2 kms on my back wheel on the road easy,some advice 4 ya,now you know your flipping point (angle of bike where all hope is lost) you will start to do better monos,you need to get your angle back a few more degrees and just do smoother smaller surges with your throttle,you have to be able to do that to start changing your gears,and you will find that you will feel more comfortable lifting it up higher as you have more control and your bike is not reefing it front wheel up and down (heaps dangerous) as per your video clip,as 1 surge of juice to much and your gone,i know it sounds silly but if you bring your bike back further its a lot safer..a good wheelstander is always a good rider as balance control on your back wheel takes a bit of practise and transferes to your riding,when you mono your 5hunghy you dont need to bring it as far back (power monos) as the power will help keep smooth,..good luck..i race my bike down here on flat tracks,youse mob call them dirt tracks,and my bikes just lifts up during the starts (mono the whole straight)and i can keep it there and still beat all of them 2010 4strokes 450s to the 1st corner,every start to if i dont back it off..sorry we took over 1 of your posts as well,..1 eyed 2stroke bloke..down under..hate 4 strokes.dont ask me why..oh yeah go back to your other post and youl see..stay with the 2s too dude..good luck with your racing and remember ride safe..madmick.

IceRacer:
Thanks for the advice. Trust me i will never get me a 4 stroke. To me 4 strokes are for people that can not ride 2 strokes(they cant keep it in the right powerband).
