I was going like 150 and grabbed the front brake. The rear came up and I rolled for about a mile or so. :bs Just kidding. But wouldn't that be cool if you could do that?

Don't know about the rest of the members but I usually don't go over 80 while doing stoppies.

600 feet is a damn long way to be riding on the front tire while braking............. The longest stoppie i've seen with my very own two eyes was 346 feet (measured and certified at a local drag strip) The guys was on a 98 or so ZX-6 and he picked up the back tire at about 140mph

I think he got around 500 at Tulsa. BTW, he isn't from the states. I'm thinkin maybe Europe somewhere, don't remember exactly.

Kevin is from England....yes thats in Europe...and he's only one of a big gang of guys who are PROFESSIONAL stunt riders in England. Jimmy FireBlade, Kevin,Craig Jones,Martin Wildchild,Gary Rothwell...thats just a few. I believe one of them has just done or is about to do the whole of the Isle of Man circuit on the back wheel...thats 36.75 miles..!!!!!! I was taught by Jimmy FireBlade...one thing he did was lock the throttle at 175mph and then climb over the front..feet on the floor and let the bike push him along...it was AWESOME!!!! There are now companies sponsoring some of these riders.....theres a living in being mad...whey!!
