Stoppies are a blast. When on the road make sure no one is behind you when you go for it. Be careful at the intersections and pick your best line because there tends to be a ton of oil at all of the lights. It kinds sucks because those are the best places. Nothing better then rolling by a few cars stopped at a light. Always pick your cars so you land next to the one with the hot chicks

I've been doin' 'em a little bit here and there. Gotta be carefull of course, lots of factors that could make for a bad outcome. I tried bouncing the bike just a little before trying to pull it up and holy **** what a difference. I'm so much more comfortable doing them like this. I have more control and I don't waste speed trying to find the right amount of break to bring it up.

DTE, do you guys suggest braided brake lines, or can stoppies be done just as easily with stock brakes. I have stock brakes and roll about eight feet. I'd still like to get my tail higher. I just have that fear of flipping over to overcome.
