F4 Stoppie Sputtering?!?!?
 

hey yo...my buddy's been doing stoppies and says when he gets up there pretty good, his bike starts to sputter and crap and then sometime dies...

anyone with an F4 or carb'd bike have this problem? if so...what did you do?

i told him to stick to the track and leave stunting to the professionals...but he said no!

hahah thanks meng!

i had this problen on my 97 gixxer 750. that is just the nature of a carb's bike. the floats just probably flooded themselves. not a big deal. next time he does them, have him bump his idle up a tiny bit and they shouldnt flood. i bet he doesnt have the same problem when he brings a wheelie far back.... im not gonna explain carbs flooding because im sure you know about that. but his idle has to be up a bit so the motor doesnt stall out next time hes on one wheel. hope this helps

command it? hahahaa. it should work. thats the only reason i can think of as to why it would sputter.
