Finally measured out stoppies

We measured out some parking spaces and used a curb and the parking lines.

The parking spaces were 9 1/2 feet wide.

I rolled a total of 72 feet. Going for 85 this weekend 3rd gear pinned. That is some time on the front tire.

The video was too dark unfortunately.

Re: Finally measured out stoppies

I was doing the same thing in a parking lot but didn't know how far apart the lines where. I was only getting 4 or 5 spots. Hopefully getting 1+ fork tubes in the mail today and I'm hoping that will help with longer stoppies.

Re: Finally measured out stoppies

Yea me and 2K3R1 were riding last night. He rolled 65 feet and I rolled 63 feet. We had cones set up and kept moving them farther back each time we would roll farther. Then we started pulling the back wheel up past our starting point. So a few of the other guys started telling us if we cheated or not!!!
More practice will help alot. The distance is all about being at the balance point fast and not flipping which is very scary at 30mph+.
I was doing them mid 50 feet with full gear on.
Took the gear off and rolled 62 feet lol!!!
Something wasn't right!!!
