haha me and a friend were out ridin today being show offs in front of a buncha chicks. Well I started out with a wheelie all the way down the road! (me on 250ex) and my friend was tryin to get down stoppies. Well he overshot on the road and flipped forwards, YES FORWARDS. And on a brand new 03 300EX scratched and dented the chit outta the whole front, plastics, the headlight was about off, the shroud over the bars was done and the lil honda logo was scratched off. Wish I had pics. :(


Just thought I'd let ya know

When i do a stoppie and feel myself going to far forwards, i just throw my arms out (i have pretty long arms) and then catch the ground and push back

Niiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiice. Yeah, last week at the same place where Redrizza posted pics I broke in my new plastic overcooking a stoppie on pavement....little bit rashed, but that's what happens.

As you can see in the pic, i'm also doing my best gay pose.

when did people start calling them stoppies? I thought they were endo's. My front brakes in my 400 dont work well enough to do that.

A stoppie is when you do just that and stop and bring the rear end up. A endo is like a wheelie on your front wheels.

heres a tip, learn to do them the same way alot of you probley learned how to do normal wheelies with one foot in the grabbar. sit up on the handlebars with your feet on the bumper. you have to have an aftermarket one or weld a bar to the top orf the stocker for your feet to go there then just go along in first high rev and nsqueeze teh front brakes as hard as you can and throw your weight forwards after doing this for about 15 minutes i got the hang of it.
