Default Stoppies!

Been working on my stoppies... and finally rolled past the 100' mark today! Woot!

I have a harder time getting to the BP when i'm going faster... I think it's because I tend to drift to one side or the other depending on the crown of our spot. But feels good to roll that far. =)

Next mark I guess is 125'. I'm going to try to keep the launch speed the same, and get to the BP faster.

Billions of threads on how to roll em. Head over to Stuntlife.com and do some reading.

Here's a 100 footer. Our spot kinda crowns down hill to the right, so I have a problem rolling longer than that because the *** end starts drifting, and I'm not good at steering em yet...

Yeah, I'm not steering em at BP yet, so I cover that distance pretty quick especially starting at approx 50mph.

Since the camera pans left to right, throws off the perspective of distance too. Stationary at one end or the other makes it "feel" longer on video.

Anyways, I bought the R1 Brembo master for my front today, so maybe that'll fix my having to pump up the lever before it starts grabing nice.

Now my bike has 2 Brembos =)
