Re: fastest tank slapper

I had an 01 r6 with a crack in the frame that I didnt find till later on...
120 mph shifted and front end popped up and came down into a slapper, wheel was straight when I came down and everything..

I watched a friend come down out of a wheelie that he had ridden on the freeway for a couple of miles, he was trying to make a turn that was too sharp at a 100 and when he landed the wheelie it slapped so bad his rear hopped over a lane and he kept it up still..

Re: fastest tank slapper

Back when I was still a super squid (since I'm just now to standard squid status) I set a staggered whoolie down at about 80mph and got monster headshake. My left foot slipped off the rear peg and I slammed it into my front peg (solid mount, ouch!). I crossed lanes trying to save it, but thankfully I wasn't squidly enough to be trying em in traffic. The guys behind me said that my back tire lifted off the ground and shifted over about 6in. Somehow, I managed to recover, but I took it pretty easy the rest of the day.
