Re: stoppies
you just gotta go fast, and bring it up high enough to where you can let off the brake a little and keep rolling...
its all about ***** and practice.

Re: stoppies
first off are you trying endos in the dirt or on the street? (i'v read posts recently of people tryin endo's in the dirt...)

And if your doing them on hte street, do you have a street tire?


Ok if your on the street with a street tire, just keep practicing and going faster when you feel comfortable..

Dirt bikes are a usually a lil harder to endo then street bikes, but it can be done..

Gotta go REALLY fast so you can grab a little brake to compress the suspension, then once the forks are compressed, grab some more brake to pop it up

I couldn't get more then 30-50 foot out of my crf150, but then again I dont practice much..
Whereas I was rolling 80+ on my f4i tell my fork seals blew

Here's your help...

Do them over and over and over and over

Then do some more.


Stoppies arent something that can be taught on a message board unfortunately.
