Stoppies falling to the right...
Ive been bustin stoppies for a while now, and I can get them pretty high, however, when I land them, 99% of the time the bike likes to fall to the right. Ive tried shifting my weight to the left some, but it still wants to fall to the right. Maybe I am putting too much pressure on the right clipon? Any tips is appreciated.

Surely you have more to add Mr. Cramer. You are, as they say, the undisputed stoppie king. Help this dude out, por favor. I could use the help myself.

Re: Stoppies falling to the right...
You've got to learn to stear them. When I was learning I found it easier instead of worrying about pushing the clip ons to grip the tank hard with your legs. When your up kick your hips around (ultimatetly your arms push the clip ons without realizing it most of the time).
Also the higher you are the easier it is to steer. Take it slow and easier, stoppies aren't something you master overnight trust me I've totalled out two bike learning them (specially 180's, lol, don't know why that's been so hard for me).
