Now I hope you guys knew I was pulling your leg! I was goofing around in the parking lot at my business today to try to get a feel for how much low end grunt my bike really has. I was standing on the pegs at idle as slow as I could balance and I punched it while pulling up on the bars and the damned thing stood right up like a freaking Gas Gas, no lie. I did it a bunch of times with the same result. I'm getting better at it now with a little practice and I can ride it out like my DRZ 400. I realize that its a totally pointless and useless skill but it sure is fun. All I need now is to find a 5 foot high greasy rock .... |

cool idea... vortex racing sells a 74 tooth rear sprocket, and you will need a more aggressive tread, perhaps a pireeli sync or maybe Avon makes a dualsport tire??? |

You would have to perfect rear wheel hopping to get thru some of the sections (that should be interesting). Be sure to have someone take pictures. Remember a little dab will do ya (in)! |

I actually competed in an observed trials on a borrowed bike in the late 70's. It wasn't pretty. |
