Whenever i try to do a stoppie my front tire just skids most of the time. Do i need to lower the pressure or soften the front end up? Its a pilot so its very sticky. Please dont flame me. Im a noob to stoppies.

make sure your tire is warm. 25 PSI or so will help too.

Re: Stoppie Noob

i run at 36, stock pressure and roll almost 300 ft at 65 miles an our or so. i messed with preload and compression and such in the forks. oh and make sure you have a good stabilizer, not the stock one.

Re: Stoppie Noob

preload the front end and it'll be less likely to wash out
