I ride a motorcycle and play guitar as well. That might be why i have issues. I have tried a bunch of things from time to time including what you said, but never with any regularity. I might give it another shot. By the way chinups on a straight bar are fine. For pullups one of those curved bars is recommended. (Usually one bar can do both).
