How fast?
how fast are you guys goin when you hit the brake? I used to roll just shy of 400 feet from 90 mph before I took a break from riding last year. I just got another bike (same model as before) and now I'm tryin NOT to go mach 10 to do long endos. Right now I can roll 100-110 feet from 50-55 mph. I know that sucks, but just want to know how fast everyone else usually brings it up at.

It all depends on the road. If you've ever been in Mass you know what I'm taking about when I say "BANKED ROADS" I tend to go a little faster because I fight the bike the whole way. If I find a nice flat parking lot, I'm doing like 400ft @ 65-70mph.
This is old and but it's from early last year but you can see how fast I roll when I was reaching for 300ft. I think I lifted around 60mph here.....

speed
I'm not sure what speed I am going but I am almost tapped out in 6th gear and I can do about 450' (with 3 down and 15 up). I think it is about 85 or 90 or so. Although I cant wait to go out and practice them again because they felt good at the XSBA practice area this past weekend. We had a 175' acceleration area and we were rolling 210' stoppies (right to the other end of the parking lot).

i'm rolling a bit over 200 on a good day.. from around 50mph, but i haven't managed to correcting drifts yet.. which really kills my distance. i'd really like to spend some time on a fireblade and see if it's any easier.. stupid R1 fights me too much.

about 50mph and i've rolled them slightly over 100 feet. We couldn't get exact cause we just had someone watching where i set it down but it was just over 100 feet.
I'm not doing that lately after i had that bad stoppie accident. I have a subconcious problem with rolling them now, i'm not scared, but i just can't seem to do it the same now.

rolling 500, changed my entrance now hitting 430 in second gear, but ill be in muskeagon with thew and ronnie tomarrow, gunning for 600/700 feet, gonna increase the speed, entrance speed doesnt really matter , if a guy enters in at 80 and rolls 800 feet, and a guy goes and at a 100 and rolls 800 feet, whos rolling farther?, exactly, its all about preference
