I'm not #1 Stunna but I can jump to the tank. What size is your gix? I know on my 6R I gotta make sure that bitch is high and stays high or else it'll fall. Make sure your not leting the front drop before jumping or while jumping and you'll get it down. Piece of cake once you feel it the first time.

ya I usually let off a bit when I jump and get back on it when I get on the tank, watch out though like you saw in the video, it can go bad sometimes.

ride a stand up.... higher the better :D And right as you jump you'll want to give is some throttle. When you land on the tank your weight will drop the front but if you over compensate w/ throttle, it will stay up.

I'm 215lbs and I can do it.... just takes Practice, Practice, Practice

i hear that im a chunky rider around 215-220 and i can do it just watch out for the slip of the tank and the accidental fist full of throttle you might grab when and if you do slide off the tank i learned them in first gear then moved on to second so maybe that will help

yea i usually get it up in first then shift to 2nd right away, then i make the jump but i just havent practiced enough on that trick. i always seem to be almost there . im not jumping high enough on the tank first off and second i know i havent been giving enough gas . welll see how it goes if its nice this weekend ill try it out but the weather doesnt look like its gonna cooperate. i'll have to go to FL. like everyone else i guess.

Once you get'em they are pretty easy, I cant believe I got wadded up doing one, I guess 90 is to fast to do'em at.

HOLY **** you sick *****, i cant believe you were doing 90 and you got up to run off the highway . you r fucked but thats cool how long did it take you to recover. i usually lift it in first, then shidt to 2nd right away and then around 30-35 i try to jump. i know i'll get it after like a week of practice. all i need now is for someone in FL. to let me move in with them for the winter.

I usually do the same pull it up in first shift second then jump, but sometimes when I jump from the seat to the tank I am in 3rd, those arae pretty easy going from like a flamingo to the tank, you should try it.

Im with Darius. Florida is far as hell. I wish there were more shows closer to us. Darius nest time you have a show let us know. We were going to go to Bakersfield but it didnt happen. There needs to be a damn competition on the westcoast or I might just have to move all the way to FLORIDA!
