    blip the throttle!

    When you close the throttle you are cutting off oil to the engine because it isn't getting any fuel / oil mix. Closure of the throttle for prolonged periods will cause siezure.

    Most two strokes nowdays have an oil pump. This runs faster at higher engine revs. Even on a closed throttle it will provide oil

    my bike manual actually recommends using engine braking, although that's a 4-stroke, so ignore my comment...
    There's nothing more exhilarating than pointing out the shortcomings of others, is there? -Clerks
