i see people doing stoppies alot and thats about all i havent done

could anyone give some advice on when,how,and what speed to start at?

anyone?

go fast, hit the front brakes and lean forward. Watch yourself though so you dont go over.

well hell i knew that

any particular surface i might want to start on?

Posted by: FlewByU352

i tried it on the road 1st just to get a feel for it. Plus thats a constant variable doing it on that type of surface where it will grip the same allt he time for the most part. I cant to stoppies anywhere else down here lock them up in the sand and you just slide.

yea... i started leaning on gravel... and if you go to fast you slide and to slow gou just stop i usually do it n the middle of 2nd gear... and sit on the farthst forward part of my seat... and you have to grab the front brakes pretty hard and whammo!!! you pull of a stoppie!!!

when i learned it was a 2 fitty ex.. and it was a 91... but once u get comfy at that speed u learn where your weight needs to be and can mess around with different speeds and what not...
