High speed stand up's

What are your opinons on these does it impress anybody to see someone doing 130mph stand up or can anybody do these? I know all the rage now are 12s but how far can you ride your stand ups?

Re: High speed stand up's

You got to have some ***** to do some high speed stuff cause when you wreck like that there really aint no coming back. But like yall said that where it all started, 3rd gear stand up hitting the rev at like 120mph blowing past your frinends thats bad *** :YEAH

Re: High speed stand up's

i like highway wheelies...i go for long though. i rock it like 60mph for a couple miles. i don't really do much over 70, don't like the real high speed stuff. not a lot of time to react on that rear wheel.

Re: High speed stand up's

I like slow stuff and I'm working on slowing things down, but highspeeds stuff is still fun. I just figured out how to lift up a fifth gear standup. I'm still working on sixth. With a little more practice I think i can do it

i bounce up about 30mph in 3rd and i rock 3rd, seems to be perfect for my 55mph standups...not too high, not too low and i can slow them down real slow for red lights.

I love high speed freeway wheelies. I'm just now startin to try 12s.
I shift em up through 6th, I've had one of my boys chase me with a tank cam and the video shows his speedo at 147 when I sat it down. I'm still tryin to find a place to host these videos, not having alot of luck. I'll post more when I get em up.

I love pullin' up to a car load of chicks, or dudes that think their lowered import is the coolest thing on the road. That's the main purpose for highway wheelies.

Re: High speed stand up's

i do em in 3rd gear sometimes. thats about 180km/h. if u balnce it right. u can ride em as long as u want. but usually i just keep it in second, at about 120km/h. cause at 180 theres just too much wind. it gives u the wobbles.

Re: High speed stand up's

I do it for the kids. School buses, mini vans, anything to get them fugging ankle biters all wound up for their parents
That and it wakes you up on the way to work. Got to be careful, though, I got arrested for accidentally doing a burnout for 4 minutes in my ex-girlfriends driveway. Apparently they didn't like that at 6 in the morning. bitch.
