Is this real?
:rofl_200::rofl_200:Maybe he just has 100 PSI of air in the forks! LOL:rofl_200::rofl_200:
I can tell you I have attempted this a few times. That picture is indeed faked and was made up in a response to Eric Harnish's stoppie (which appeared to be legit but not sure).
Anyway, Every time I have attempted it the front end wants to skid out before the ass end really gets anywhere (though it may have been slightly off the ground). It will make you about crap your shorts though when that tire breaks loose. I highly recommend against attempting this!
I think I could maybe get it done with a 17" sticky radial, stock rear height, lowered front, chain drive (preferred for weight reduction), fork brace (inverted maybe), and a bike I didn't mind getting damaged if the test went bad. Sean
Just what I was thinking would happen, talking about a heavy bike here! unk:
And I just bet it's some scary shit when that front breaks loose!! Major metal for even trying it!! :worthy:
It is TERRIFYING when the front end breaks loose......trust me:bigeyes:
