It's not that big of a town and nobody else stunts besides me and a couple of guys starting to learn. I've given you my contact info before or just hit me up on this thread at least.

No disrespect to CIX Chris, cause he def beat Bill D, but 425 isnt that far at all... especially from 300. Doubling ur take off distance (at least) is kind of the rule of thumb with stoppies. And NO, f4i's are not great stoppie bikes... the rake of the bike and the placement of the motor in the frame is horrible. Thats why most people usually keep them on the rear wheel

Re: stoppies

Alright for some reason am I doing my stoppies wrong? Just started stunting about a week ago.... rolling them about 45-55 Ft.
I have my a$$ touching the the back of the seat going around 35mph then I hold the clutch in and bounce on the seat and throw my weight forward. Alot of times my tire lock or I gets up way to fast. Is there another method I can use like not bouncing? The guys in these vids dont look like they bounce so what should I do?
Thanks Dan...

I'm guessing the guy making this post, isn't even rocking 50 foot endo's yet..

Thats why I say the f4i is perfectly fine for what hes doing.. Untill he is rocking some distance, he should just leave it stock, and practice..


Thats my opinion at least... I wouldn't be buying a bike just for endo's if I couldn't already rock 200foot +

Do I have to bounce or just lean my weight forward and press the break? Also Do I have to lock my arms or keep them bent?

Re: stoppies

ok, get goin 30+ mph, whereever speed ur comfetable at, using 2 fingers pull in a godd bit of brake and while pulling in shift ur weight forward to where ur slightly off the seat, keep a slight bend in ur arms keeping them stiff. as u reach the desired height ur comfterable with, ease off and bearly glide the brake. u kind of have to figure it out from there on ur own

theres a couple different styles some guys dont bounce some do. im a big dude i dont bounce i throw my weight forward while putting the brake on get up and to balance point as fast as possible. Always keep your arms locked when there not you will get headshake and wobble.
