[QUOTE="High Lord Gomer, post: 94311, member: 16469"] I don't usually chop the throttle until I'm already in the air, that way I know I have gotton drive all the way up the face of the jump. As far as getting more distance, you'll probably just want to hit the jump with higher RPMs and more throttle. There are jumps that I can easily make in 2nd "on the pipe" that I can't in 3rd because the power isn't up there enough to launch the bike adequately. Be careful with short, steep jumps as those tend to kick the back end violently when you hit them hard. Normally, I need to hit them hard on the gas, with a tight grip, and be prepared to pull back hard on the bars. if you can, jump the jump on one side or the other where you can miss the landing and work up to getting enough speed, power, and distance.
