Choke wont stay out.

As I attempt to be a Jedi Squid Master like Port and Ken :D , I am trying christs off the seat and my DAMN CHOKE WONT STAY OUT!!!!! It keeps going back in as I slow down, it was probably designed to do so when the bike is warm. But does anyone else have this problem??? I have thought about adjusting my idle speed before I try it but that would suck having to put it back.
Help this young apprentice. :D

I figure I already low-sided so that was the "green light" to go ahead and start doing it. I wanted to from the beginning but was being anal about getting my bike scratched/damaged, my bike was spotless before that fateful day. So now, its like I have a bike thats great for stunting so why not........NOW IF I CAN GET THAT DAMN CHOKE TO STAY OUT!!!!!:mad :mad
C-mon Steve, I know you wanna try more stunts.......hey atleast you can wheelie.......:D

You don't necessarily need the choke, it just helps to roll longer Christs. Another way to do it without the choke is it to take your speed upto about 60 in 6th gear and start standing up. You should get up in the Christ position at about 45mph and you can ride it out until about 30mph. In our sukadik movie btb F4i's christs on his F4i(no choke) are done using this method. Hope this helps and keep in squidly!

kalamari, I think I will pass on your method, I dont want that crunchy bike yet. :D

Port, dammit, you're inspiring me.....:D Now I have something else to look forward to trying.

Port, from this day forward, you are to be known as Darth Port.

Hey, you guys gonna do that ride this weekend??? Looks like a pretty good turn out.

Mark Hammil was the worst freaken actor. But he'll always be known as Luke Skywalker a Jedi and I will always be known as that guy that wont wheelie a 900RR........:toothless

Yeah Instance, just do what port said, thats what I do. Just ride at about 60mph get up on your seat and when the speed feels comfortable let go and stand up, ride until your speed gets slow and your bikes starts to get a little unstable, thats when you hop down.

Good luck with them.
