Both acceleration and a stoppie would compress the frame, just from opposite ends of the bike. He could twist the belt into a figure 8 and take a few passes down the strip backwards. Yes, that might do it. |

I assume you've got very few trophies from the science fair in grade school and lots of nasty notes from teachers too? |

thread hijack...sorry No trophies, and I threw away the notes unread. Are you saying acceleration caused by the rear axle pushing the bike forward would cause the frame to get longer, or am I completely off the mark? |

Shorten the frame by putting the front wheel against a barrier and do a burnout, repeat as many times as necessary. Bob has the correct answer. |

The tank is tied to your 401k. (sorry!) |

Remember the burnout must be done facing west to compensate for the rotation of the earth. I'm sure the lunar phase is important too, but above my head. |

The bike is more prone to wheelie than burnout and the last stoppie I did scared the piss out of me, Damm Jack Russel Terrier! I would be perfectly happy doing lots of burnouts and I guess since I asked for explanations that were just shy of insane, I got exactly what I asked for. The original tank still looks good except for the big gap between the tank and the seat
