ran out of power? You were doing a power wheelie, not at balance point, thats why you ran out of power..

And f4i's dont need oil pickup's for highway, so idk what your tlaking about

and back in the day no one used the rear brake, it was all balance..



Hell the longest wheelie I have EVER done, was on my friends bone stock 636 with NO rear brake line on it! His brake line broke, and I took it off to get a replacement made, and I went out riding his bike
Ended up going a little over 6 miles staggard lol

Still haven't attempted to further WITH a brake

 

+1 at highway speed 5 mile with no hb is def doable. when i was a super squid i was doing 3 miles with no tank dent and no hb.

 

I saw at least a 4 or 5 mile high chair video on the Merrit Island Extremes website back in the day. I'm talking over 3 or 4 years ago and if any of you have heard of MIX you know they where old skool not even a team anymore. This is when circles were at the top of the food chain. I cant find the video anymore. I know it's possible with no handbrake.

 

.......5 miles highchair...NOT POSSIBLE FF...i dont even see it happen sf but im not going to say no if you go db bars and wrap legs around it like a monkey bar...maybe...arm pump is def a facter...i got 8 and a half miles with both feet on rear pegs and i was trembling....that was with no brakelines on bike like someone else said below...heres a video of me and my boy NO HANDBRAKES!!!!!!!!!...theres a two mile highchair full fairing no hb...he can steer them pretty good and he said he couldnt hold on anymore and the road was straight



my

 

JYP isnt a highway though

 

definitely possible

just like you said, wrapping your legs, your gravy

How do you think people do no handed high chairs? Don't have to worry about arm pump for them!

I can't steer a highchair to save myself, so no long hc's for me

 

5 miles? damn

longest i did was like a mile and a half on I-4, i got tired of hanging on

 

well im with him...not possible

not only balance but arm pump...and even when everyone was a squid on here, to do a mile or so took alot out of u...and yea i was riding a power/balance whoolie, but u still need power or sprockets to hold that bike up...

1st NICK HILL<<SCOOTER TRASH>> BACK IN THE DAY everyone had one of four bikes 929(just about everyone even today)954(dan jackson,kevin starboyz,ect..)GSXR750(jason brittion,diggy,ryan cramer) old the old tank 900rr nick hill had one of the sweetiest and longest highchairs, but in just about ever OLD SCHOOL viedo the bike was wineing out, sprockets wasnt a big thing yet so power does play a part

2nd ANDY BAKER <<STL SCHOCKER>>f4i power really wasnt a part for him(sprocket) but i was there for the first rotc and the second ect, he rode a highchair in first gear down the parkway, no hb, and he had one of the sweetiest hb i ever seen(that and hes 5 ft tall) u seen the whole exhaust when he rode one, even then, with all the balance in the world, and he had engine brake like none other, still could only ride one for a mile or two...then he blew his motor..!!

sorry thats just my opition...it might be possible, either way id love to see it!!

 

you're digging a hole here bro...and without your naked avitars noone is gonna cut you any slack lol.

 

nags took it away from me pimp lol....

im just sayn i dont think its possible without a handbrake thats all, even a pro rider back in day i dont think it was even possible....

and that guy wasnt..so if theres anyone with a youtube doing a 3mile highchair without handbrake and u could see its 3miles not some viedo slow mo edit where it lookd like a 5 mile but i was really2..love to see it


and i got back up pics lol

 

ive probably done about 4-5 mile hc's no handbrake on my 1000 back in the day. could change lanes n everything back then..
dont need a handbrake just need to know how to balance

havent done a long highway wheelie like that in years though... if i had the place to do it id say over 5 miles would be easy..

-kane

 

You just contradicted yourself.

 

blah blah blah...i want phootage of this 5 mile bs talk everyones spitting out...dont care who you are or what you used to do back in the day...this is not the washed-up hasbeens life.com ...lets not talk about what everyone did when i was crapping in diapers lets just post some videos...lmfaoooo

I've seen Crazy Martin do about 3 miles with my own eyes last summer on Hwy 167. He was killin spreaders and HC's with no handbrake on the old school 900 RR. He complained about arm pump so I would love to see video of someone doing 5 miles.

 

EXACTLY...ive got two with sf and clipons...and armpump kicked in...i posted proof of my boy doing 2 full fairing with clips and no handbrake...its a shame no one else has footage

 

just cause 8 miles is all you can do double rear peg doesnt mean people aren't crushing 5 miles in highchair... not everyone has the time or resources to film what they do

 

IT's possible, very hard, but def possible w/ or wo/ hb!

 

im going out on the next nice day and crushing it. then u can all shut the **** up haha. i will get vid proof too

 

I wish I had it on video. We did not video tape it. We where just out riding and he did it. It might not have been exactly 5 miles, but he did ride a HC for like 5 to 6 mins! It was way out on South OBT. I forgot that JYP turns into SOBT. It did happen! I never said he made it look easy. He did get arm pump like a bitch and had big red marks in his legs from the windscreen! We had to pull over and let him rest. He did have a dented tank. Back then the whole top of the tank was smashed in. Looked like a piece of fried bologna! LOL! Oh and this thead was not to talk **** about what happened back in the day. I was just wondering!
