A burnout is where you hold in the front brake lean forward, give it some and dump the clutch (in your case twist the throttle Confused

) and the back wheel spins up with the bike staying still.

A stoppie is where you come to a stop and the rear end rises up off the ground but the front wheel stays put.

You can try them on a ped just don't let anyone see, they will probably laugh when you end up on your arse Smile

nah you probably wont be able to do these on a ped, by all means try but i cant (even when i was leaning all the way off the front of my ped i couldnt get it to stoppie) none of my mates can either, ive seen people do wheelies, but you need to take a lot of weight off the front for that. (ie stripping stuff off)

is it easy to kill animals when you drive down the road doing a wheelie

i culd never do wheelies on pushbikes, doubt ill be able to on a ped really. the balance you need for it just seems alien to me

try them i can get my ped to stopie perfectly must get the back wheel about a good 3.5ft or more off the floor, burnouts are possable but there isnt enuf power for a clean one unless ur find some realy smooth tarmac or its pissing down with rain, also try on white lines lol that works a treat

i remember when i first drove a moped. my mate took us down to some car parks / back roads and let me have a drive. then later on he got a bit brave and tried to wheelie it and the bike just flew on its side and he mashed up all the side panelling lol. nutter.

A stoppie on a ped is dead easy, wheelie's aren't too bad and I didn't bother trying to do a burnout, probably the only thing that would burn out is my patience
