Thinking of starting practising stoppies, I ride a hyosung GT250R So twin front discs and light 250, what pressure should I run in the front tire? any suggestions for rear tire pressure/suspension to absorb the hard landings?
Cheers =)

How to do a Stoppie (in one easy lesson)
1.) Engage first gear
2.) Accelerate to 50km/hr or more.
3.) Keeping weight forward, jam on front brake as hard as you can.
4.) Call ambulance (and wrecker).
Nuffink to it.

in all seriousness, (and I say that lightly, youre talking about doing a stoppie on the fuckin titanic here)
lower the pressure in the front down to 30-ish, maybe 32.
Rear around abouts 38-39psi. you dont want too soft or slamming will fuck your rims.
also, your bike is a fucking whale. if you really want to do this, you need to remember your weakest link.
make sure you have good brakes, stock are shit, upgrade pads, and preferabbly lines to something braided.
Once your brakes are good, get good grippy tyres. If your tyres are shit, the front will lock and tuck, and youll have gravel for teeth.
if possible, beef up for suspension, theyre soft stock, so theyll eat the energy instead of letting you create rear end lift.
lastly, after you dop it the first time, give up. Id honestly recommend not bothering with stoppies in the first place, but if youre gonna do it, the above might be helpfull
also find a half made bridge,
race to the end and slam the front brakes as hard as you can
i suggest to do this on a bridge going over water!
