Stoppy tyre pressures?

Motards are by far the easiest to stoppie.

Harder to wheelie though. Because the suspension has so much travel, and is quite soft. So when you modulate the throttle the balance point moves. The suspension compresses as you gas off, moving the balance point rearward. When you get back on the gas the shock extends and the balance point moves forward. Gotta be silky smooth to get a decent wheelie on them.

Four stroke singles are hardest to loop over though, because shutting the throttle down is like dropping anchor.

Yep, that's why I have a giggle when people say 'learn to wheelie a dirtbike'
Oh, and SOME cruisers can be made to stoppie....

motrad/dirt bikes are much easier to wheelie...lower gearing/light weight make it much much easier guys!!....seriously...chook chasers are the easiest to wheelie!!

theyre a bit more durable when you stack it trying to learn than a fully faired bike

Ryan, would you like to have a wheelie comp between you, Andy, and myself?

Don't answer that with your ego, or you're gonna have to go and buy a bike, just to get your arse handed to you TWICE!

They are easier to hoist, they are harder to get a mintah going at a constant speed on a smooth surface.

Your right I'm not going to buy one...but seriously...I and many many other people can wheelie dirt bikes for ages at constant speeds...on smooth or otherwise ground...on rolling ground its easy to control also...neither of us are going to back down from or point of view...so this debate will be eternally useless...

As much as I hate the implications of this statement, I am forced to submit it for you to consider.

It takes more skill to wheelie a dirt bike, than it does a road bike. Lots of people though, get put off by the speed of a road bike when they are learning. On a dirt bike, the risk seems lessened because of the often softer landings on ones arse.

And to an extent that is true. I looped your KLX and all we did was laugh!
