Like spinning the tires, burning the up? Yah it can be done. And have fun replacing your clutch when you do.

if your tryin to spin the tire. hold the front brake and rev it up to 6ish and let the clutch out slowly. thats how i use to do it. i dont do it anymore cause tires are way to damn expensive to burn it up like that

If you mean spinning on the kickstand, I wouldn't, because that's 400+ lbs. on one tiny little piece of metal, and if it breaks, you're boned. I'll do it with my scooter and Scrambler, but hell no I won't do it with the F4i.
