    possibly fake... but i've seen others like it... like those starboyz!... (see the squidiness thread)

     

    but no... you'll not find me riding pillion on anything but a goldwing! My first experience as a pillion was on my ZX-6R when its previous owner gave me a lift to greenlane. Trying to keep falling off the back under reasonably heavy accel. (let alone being fanged) using only grab handles is NOT my idea of a good time. I obviously wouldn't cut it as a side car swinger!

    nope, and shame, you have ridin with a guy like that :P

    bahaha, no, but on my old honda dirtbikes id ride around the track for a laugh sitting on the handlebars with my feet forward, up dowm, wherever u wanted them, and did it on a number of occasions up and down the road on my 250.  Never whilst doing a wheelie, but with a big streight, and a bike llike that, it would be piss easy. just do what i was doing in 2-3rd gear or whatever u can on ya bike and still be able to pull a wheely by throttle only.  shit it would feel scarey. but when i get a bike that powerful, ill do it.  also rode sitting sidewayz on the seat, and could still change gears, only problem is going around right hand corners feels friggin scarey! and u basically cant corner much at all to the right (weird sensation leaning backwards :/)

    It isn't fake - go to kazaa and do a search under videos - using motorcycle stunts, wheelies, stoppies etc as searches - I have about 30 video clips a hell of a lot worse that that one, some 15 minutes long of just stunting (and crashes).  I have the wickedest 2 up wheelie crash from a bike mag doing a video on the new 954

     

    Stunting is a waste of time - the only way you learn is from binning the bike and what does it prove?!?!?  You've spent too much time showing off and not enough riding fast.  The only stunts I have time for a powerstands out of bends, stoppies when you get poo pants coz you over cooked the corner, and rear wheel slides under intense rear wheel braking or engine compression....

    rear wheel slides under compression? jesus, i got shit tyres and my bikes wont do that even in low gear @ redline i dont think, then again i havent really tried when fully leaned over.  now theres an idea.

    anyway yeah, its fully true.  well i want to be astunt bike rider, just because i can. not in terms of skill yet, hell no, but in terms of i cant die or break bones, so its not bad @ all, get paid heaps because of risk involved for "normal people" but theres no risk for us young invincibles
