Go ahead and roll 2000 feet with 100lbs dumbell strapped to your fairing, but if you can only roll 700 without it, as far as I'm concerned you roll 700 ft stoppies.

I Still don't think it's unfair if a stock 600 with clip-ons has to compete with a fully modified one with DB bars... It's his own choice to rock a stock bike... And he knows that this sport is all about modifing you're bike. Or else we wouldn't had oil pick-ups,handbrake's,crashcages,gearings etc.
I don't see the problem to change the steering also
I got respect for both riders, with clip-ons or with DB bars, but still my credits go out for the riders that rolls the longest stoppies, desregarding the fact that maybe he's rocking DB bars...And like I heard many time's before, Jason britton is killin' the stoppie scene, and he's rocking clip-ons... So don't be hatin' the DB bars, cause it's not like they make a rider invincible
