With stoppies... been doing them a lot lately on the R6, and relatively high too... getting a bit cocky and keep [trying] rolling stoppies past the sparkies [electricians] when they sat outside in the mornings at work Laughing

(funnily they werent impressed, they just thought I were going to fall off Laughing

)

Done another on way home to work and so very nearly flipped it Crying or Very sad

it went VERY very high and then when I landed I was leaning over quite a bit, managed to keep it upright and look like I MEANT for it to go that high Cool

either that or I just looked a twat... but at least I never dropped it..

won't be doing stoppies for a while now then Laughing

Reminds me of this video:

Indeed, it was very funny Laughing

The stoppie I done today nearly went along the same lines Laughing

that's why I posted the video.. rear end went too high so I put my left leg down but obviously floor is miles away, but thankfully I left the rear to drop down normally isntead of leaning sideways like the numptie on the CCM done Laughing

I did manage to clutch a wheely in 2nd though Smile

thats about the 2nd time ever out of 200 odd tries Laughing

Nice one, I keep considering stoppies, but haven't managed one yet. I need the bike too much. Confused

p.s.

Remind me never to purchase a used bike off you. Rolling Eyes

almost went over the bars on my push bike once, had to jam the front break on a bit due to it having crappy brakes Laughing

so when i stoppied and got to the balence point i let off the brakes and they were still binding just paused there with my eyes out ->> Shocked

till it eventaully came back down.

YamsR6,
