a lot of people on here like pedal bikes. i thought someone one here might know something about a kicker ramp. a couple of guys on here have made them and have dirtbikes.

i have a kicker ramp for my rc10gt (rc car)
i used some flimsy wood and a couple 2 by 4's and some plywood it works good but wouldnt support a bike
Its about 1 and a half feet high
I can get like 6 feet of air with the jump
Its sick

I DID THIS IN A BOUT A MIN SO ASK QUESTION, THE RED DOTTED ONE IS A VIEW OF ONE OF THE SIDE PANELSAND THE RED DOTS ARE 2 BY 4'S THAT RUN ACROSE FROM THE LEFT SIDEBOARD TO THE LEFT, THEN THE TOP PIECE GOES ONTOP AND IS SCREWED DOWN ON THE 2BY4'S...

whatever you do make sure that you have a landing too
so you make a ramp like DMC showed you but then if its like 3 feet high ramp make the landing about 2 feet high or 1-1/2 to make much smoother landings, then u can keep extending it out more n get a lot of air...you can put something under neath the landing of plywood so when you land it doesnt go strait down n hit the ground
ill get some pics of my dirt jumps at my friends house 10 foot first one then 15 second one
there insane
