Well, I tried it a few times, I'll leave the stopies to the pro's. Man you really have to grip the tank with your knees. It takes a whole lot more skill than I thought. I only got it up maybe a foot. I'll stick to wheelies!!!!!!!! |

Try standing on the pegs and let the bike float up to your arse. After the very brief initial grab on the brake lever just be gentle with it there after for control. I'm no expert either and it takes a lot of skill to get up high which also heightens the risk of toppling over - which I've done. More so if you're trying to stoppie to a standstill rather than trying to rolling stoppie briefly then continue moving without putting your feet down. Anyway, you're right. Best leave it to the pro's. Well maybe the odd little one's ok now and again seeing as they're not to difficult! Rocket |
