HEE HEEEE! Thats why I don't do them. I like my baby to much and would rather fly through the twistys then do stunts. art | ||

Whaa! He just gets up and picks up his bike like there's nothing wrong. A really tough guy. Maybe he meant to do it like that. | ||

Its was probably the adrenalin rush and I'm sure it hit him after the camera stopped. Looks like he was more worried about his bike than himself.  | ||

Am wondering how long until someone puts a roll cage on their stunt bike for when a stoppie goes bad. Would be like doing a front flip and continuing on with the show, eh? | ||

This is a hint on why the sport bike insurance premiums are a bit high? What a dweeb!  | ||

I actually did the very same thing showing off for my nephews, except I was on my new mountain bike. They saw me take a swan dive right into the pavement. I was able to tuck and roll out of it and came up without a scratch. After I popped up, I said, "Wow, wasn't that cool?", and they both looked at me and said, "Uh..., no it wasn't." | ||

Bill, I've seen exactly what you are talking about. Some stunt show act somewhere. | ||
| Outrider |
Blake...that figures. No much gets to Wisconsin before it is out of vogue everywhere else. LOL | ||

If you are gonna steal a bike why a Suzuki Katana? | ||
| Johnnylunchbox |
Was that a katana or an old RF??? Nothing wrong with Katana's by the way.  | ||

Outrider: I'm pretty sure the Purple Helmets stunt team does (or did) that. Bob | ||

Kewl...That will give me something to look for this coming season! | ||

Here's a picture from their website: .jpg) | ||

That is just way too funny! Thanks for the website. Sort of like something Monty Python would do. Almost reminds me of Monty's Twit Race. I can just imagine what the announcer is saying. Sure wish I could see them sometime. I have a feeling I would be the one hauled off by ambulance from laughing myself sick.  | ||

On second thought, I hope the liberals in our Government don't see that pic. Next thing you know the will mandate us to have the rolling roll cage and we will end up rolling through those busy intersections rather than just low siding. LMAO | ||
| Blackbelt |
I just hope that when we do, the gas cap is tight.... lol | ||

"dumb squid"? As opposed to the smart ones?  | ||
| Outrider |
Gas Cap...LMFAO!!!  | ||

There's nothing wrong with stunt riding. I've done a few stoppies myself...sh*t happens...I'd just hate to have it happen to me! I'd need a Supermoto or something to attempt it now. My bike has too many trick bits to smash now. | ||
| Tripp  |
i hear that! dropping a nice bike is way too expensive! i'll pop an occasional wheelie now and again but anything crazier than that will have to wait till i get a dirt bike! | ||
| Outrider |
Tripp...I concur. Haven't done any stunts since I sold my KLR. For some reason, that bike looked good with the occasional Battle Scar. LOL |
