I started out drag racing.. then went to trackdays... and now I stunt... knee dragging is easy and seems full of skill to a newb...but not that impressive... I am sponsored by a track school and everytime I go I ride at the top of the Advanced group... and am bored after the first couple sessions... bottom line... its weak!

 

Exactly....

But then again, when we do shows, the biggest cheers are for burn outs, stoppies and headstands. Maybe if you did it in a show with a litte hype behind it, the public would think it was cool, but as for comp?

 

i like dragging knee..learned it first season on my r1. came fairly simple . although guys are much faster then me that practice and do track days im sure. but i enjoy stunting . and put a cage on my r1 by season 2.

now i have a stunt bike and my r1 sits in the garage lol

 

LOL ive been on here longer than half of the people that posted here. i dont post much but i read alot

im just saying to do it "right" takes skill. i love stunt riding, it takes, *****, skill and stupidity. I stunt a 50 because im to poor to buy a big bike to crash everyday

also to the people saying they knee dragged instantly, its because stunters are typicaly more ball-z then the standard rider. we are more willing to take risks.

lol the hazing thing is funny. i just enjoy dragging my knee at over 100mph its a rush. ive also done decently long wheelies. just dont want my r6 for stunting. r6's have terribly weak subframes.

i dont claim to be a stunt rider on a big bike, you guys that do this well are awesome. im sticking to 50's for now.

 

My if it ever did make it to a stunt competition it should be were the audience gets involved and if they got bikes take em out and wad there **** up trying to drag knee.( In the parking lot at slow speeds )
But besides that if it ever did make it into a stunt competition that would probably be the one nobody would get payed for

 

thats why they sell aftermarket subframes or if youre cheap subties. every new bike has a weak subframe

 

true but its set up for twisties or track right now. i enjoy twisties right now more then controlled crashing or stunting

 

Well, I was a road racer back before stunting was around. 1986. I did the race school in 97 on my FZ 600. I could drag knee the first weekend but it took me all of that year to learn ow to ride a 4 gear wheelie... Hear, 4 gears on a FZ600 was cool as **** back in the mullet days...

 

you dont need to change anything to do wheelies on a bike.....if u wanna wheelie just do it, a bike set up for the track will wheelie just the same as one with a full stunt setup

 

yea but i dont want to screw it up. i can wheelie it no issues, i dont like highway stunts i dont think they are nearly as cool as slow precise stunts. Id want a stunt bike set up for a parking lot

 

This thread sucks

 

GSXR junkie is like the "Yut Uhh" guy of knee dragging

 

 

how?

this whole time i have been all but deuchie.... and no knee draggin wouldnt be cool in a stunt comp. it has its time and its place. im not saying im the best at everything either.... stop trying to be funny you fail.

 

i have been looking all over for aftermakket subframes. si has them on their website but doesnt actually sell them anymore. anyone knows who currently sells steel subframes for 05 r6?

 

and what the **** are you? how are you going to even talk trash on either one...the yut uh guy or gsxr junkie im pretty sure both of those guys own real bikes and not just 50s and a quad so theyre atleast 1 step up on you..

thanks man, but i still dont know how i am getting related to yut uhg..... lol

 

Do you guys even still ride? I mean the last good group of riders that came out of NHRR were Ethan and JP, and they were actually DTE more than NHRR...
NHRR is the Yut Uhh of New England stunt teams.

 

Don't worry about it, NHRR doesn't even have any stunt riders anymore, unless they started riding again in the last 3 years.
