stoppie problems... wobbles and turning em
ok i've never really played with stoppies much till lately.... like the FIRST time i role one instead of just doing the gay *** donkey kick stoppies was like a month ago... anyway i've gotten wo where i can pull em up from 30-40 mph but i'm only rolling em 50-60ft i know i COULD roll em farther and i know where stoppie bp is but every time i get cose to it i get bad tank slappers and damn near lose it.
i have a 954 front end on my f4i and i feel like it shouldnt get wobbles this bad and that easy but it happens about 90% of the time that i yank it strait up close to bp above 25 or so... below that im fine.... on and the tire is in great shape running about 27-28 psi. is there something i'm doing wrong or something i need to check on my setup or what
my next issue is turnin em.... ive tried and tried but i cant get it someone please explain how!

Steering dampner will help w/ the head shake. get good at steering em first then try to turn em....... My boy D-lish would be a good person to ask on turnin em.

Re: stoppie problems... wobbles and turning em
well i know a damper would help.... but i figured since i get em s damn often and easy maybe i was doing something wrong caus i've seen plenty guys rock 100+ feet w/o a damper and every time i try bring it up high at faster speeds its like ISTANT wobble
oh and i'm good on thta link... i hardly ever skid and im pretty good about bringin it up its just that i'm tryin to stretch em out alot father and these wobbles are killin me...

Re: stoppie problems... wobbles and turning em
maybe you are not keeping your arms stiff enough , i was rolling a couple hundred feet before i got a damper but they were power stoppies no where near balance point untill the very end.......
but i would still get a damper
but i would still get a damper
Re: stoppie problems... wobbles and turning em
yea i can keep em from wobbling if i do power ones until the end too... i'll try stiffening up my arms today and we'll see how that works. i guess its time to bight the bullet and buy a gpr though.
Re: stoppie problems... wobbles and turning em
buy a damper!! yesterday i almost bit it HARD! 2nd gear, ripped it up HIGH, rolled a bit and than BAMBAMBAM all the way left to right to left tankslapper.. landed sideways and managed not to crash somehow! my hyperpro is coming tomorrow yaaaay!!
Re: stoppie problems... wobbles and turning em
sometimes if i get a little wobble bringing it up, i pull it up a tad bit higher to help get rid of the wobble of death. the higher the bike, the easier they are to turn for me. hope this helps
Re: stoppie problems... wobbles and turning em
haha NO THANKS..... tried that thinking it would smooth out like a wheelie does when it wobbles...and the wobble damn near spit me over the front! i guess i'll have to take it easy till i get a damper.... i would buy it now but im saving for the week i'll be in vegas for SEMA:YEAH
Re: stoppie problems... wobbles and turning em
my friend nick told me to look where you go instead of down at the floor this has hlped me with my wobbles although im sure my frame is pissed as i always fall to the right even with my weight on the left or adverswe camber... still gos to the ****** right as soon as i lift... and believe me i can get upto bp quick enough... i got a new 636 the other day (04 model) so if i roll em straight on this i know it's the bike... look where you go not at the florr maybe this might help yo wombles!!

i just started trying stoppies yesterday, ironically enough, i went from 1 foot to 80 feet consistantly on an f3. with a bald tire. within 2 hours. i luckily had no problems.
