Well i can do it now like everyone else :YEAH BUT..... from what im reading from you guys it seems like you guys just apply enough pressure then get your *** of your seat and the back wheel goes with it.... ( as in a moving indo )

as for me i slowly apply the brakes while performing the nut cracker with my legs on the tank and feel the back wheel come up. ( comes to a stop )... i wanna know how you guys are doing this while moving. Is there a balance point?????

Now for the catwalk.... Ive got a gixer 7fitty ( 98 ) i can get it up in first sometimes..(<--- noooob)
Using the loading the fork way.........

i ride with some guys that do the stand up catwalks and it looks like they are pulling it up.... they say they are pushing down.......

now i have tried to do the stand up crap but i cant get it right... and i dont think it would be smart to try it in first.......

lemme know


Stunter in the making

 

its an endo, not indo, and its a wheelie, not a cat walk

 

Yes, there is a balance point for endos.

 

Start rolling at around 65 in first gear, almost to redline, put one foot on the passenger peg and stand up.

Roll off the throttle hard so the forks compress. Grab the brake with as much force as you can and throw your body forward hard. Remember, if you don't hear the tires chirping you're not doing it right.

Good luck.

 

FHL, are you rolling endos or is this just what you "think" would work well?

 

I'm rolling them 500 feet with this method.

 

 

By the way, I am not responsible for any injury or death caused by use of this method.

 

I want to see a vid of you rolling 500ft endo's like this. Post it up. I hope this dude doesn't listen to you, he's eat it for sure.

 

dear lord. this is the second place i have seen you trying to give advice. i really hope this is a joke. i hope no one follows this advice...........just keep practicin what you are doin man and take it slow. it comes with time.......seriously dont follow this jokers advice.

 

FHL needs to thrown off the boards before his smart *** coments get someone killed.. this is like the third retarded on purpose advice he has laid down. Give constructive advice or shut the fuct up..

 

clutch it (always), power wheelies are ghey. this site helped me see the error of my ways

i think "cat walk" sounds better, i wish it was still used. it's like that thread about "stoppie or endo", i think chinese wheelie sounds better or maybe "shoveler"

and DO NOT try what FHL said. it will hurt

 

funny but just wrong. i don't know this guys iq but if he listens to you he is going to kill himself.

 

for the kid with the indo question, when i roll em out or do endos i get going to a nice speed the (speed doesnt really matter as long as you hit the balance point,),around 45 or so and then i pull the front brake in about 80%, at the same time lift my *** off the seat as soon as the rear end comes up before the the point, i strt letting out the break and then just roll it out until i comme to a slow stop with the rear at the balance point the whole time. the main things to pay attention to are keeping your arms stiff and strait and when the back end kicks out lean with it to keep from highsiding or go with it by locking the front brake up almost to 80 % again to start doing 180 endos . and for the wheelies just put it in first clutch it up and get used to wheelying your bike you gotta feel comfotable and then standups tank wheelies will be basic then you can move on to slow ****.....

 

when you said "when the back end kicks out lean with it to keep from highsiding" do you mean if the rear end starts leaning to the right then you should lean to the right with it?

-leadr <---noob still

 

Yeah, same with slow wheelies, if it starts to fall to the left side you lean to the left to change the direction of the bike and keep it from falling.

 

WHY DONT U STOP BEING A DICK AND GIVVE GOOD ADVICE OR DONT GIVE ANY AT ALL. THE DAMM KID WANTS TO LEARN AND IT'S ******** LIKE U THAT GET THESE PEOPL;E HURT..

 

Dont ever do this,,,having said that this is how I do it

Allrighty, my best stunt is an Endo so I can help you here. First, forget adjustments or aftermarket brake pads. The only thing you need to have for sure when learning stoppies is a really good front tire. Now listen carefully.
Lets start with the weather, when your learning make sure its a fairly warm day,,the hotter the better. No rain. when your learning rain or cold weather can distroy your confidence. Now look for really good asphalt NOT concrete. Find a big parking lot with a nice grey color to the asphalt. Make sure there are no tar spots or uneven spots, uneven spots can cause the rear end to swing around. Now, Make sure your tires are warm, just ride around for a while before attempting. Some people drop the front pressure down a bit, I useually run about 28 psi in mine. Then build up some speed the faster you start at the slower the rear can rise without coming to a dead stop. when your learning try 40-45 that should be plenty. Now, first just squeeze the front a little bit, notice the front forks colapse this is important if you mash the brake you will probably lock the front tire and crash, so when the forks colapse first that means that braking force is now going directly to the ground not the suspension. try that a few times first. Now start getting comfy with hard braking. So get a bit of speed up again and squeeze the brake with the index and middle finger (better feel) see how fast you can stop safely. Now, after you are comfy with that it is go time. So Sit on the bike with your arms straight but not locked make sure they are stiff though, don't lean forward, actually sit as still as you can the first few tries. Now remember that squeeze no mashing no jerking like a gun squeeze steadily. the first few times you do this the rear prolly won't even raise and the first time it does it will scare the crap out of you but just keep practicing steady braking until it becomes second nature. Now a few notes but very important.

1st DO NOT BAIL, most stoppie wrecks could have been saved if the rider kept his cool. Your goal is to not put your feet down so don't unless you absolutly have too. This may be a strong instict to fight but believe me if that rear hoop is in the air and you freak and try to put your feet down they ain't gonna touch the ground and you will have upset the bikes balance and then your fooked.

2nd remember the asphalt, don try this on concrete especially when learning, other traction killers are tar spots, gravel, shiny asphalt, painted stripes, small animals. Pay close attention on what you are on.

3rd Make sure you have the clutch in (I useually have my bike in First gear and the clutch in that way I atleast have instant power if I need it.

4th Smooth braking is key at first it will seem like all you do is come to a stop, that will change just don't ever mash the brake

5th body position you want your weight to shift to the front end that why your arms need to stay stiff.

6th warm tires and hot days are the best for learning,

7th have a ton of fun,, don't be so intent on doing this that you forget why you wanted to in the first place.

This stunt comes quick to most just keep practicing safely, when you start feeling that tire come up set up a camera even just a disposable camera and have a friend photgragh you, so you can see what you are doing, the funny thing about endos are that for a while an inch with feel like a foot but then all of the sudden it will change places and a foot will feel like only a couple inches so take pictures of your progress it will save you a ton of time. rolling endos wil come with time, this simply has to do with getting the bike up faster and being near the balance point on the front. but learn the basics first.
What an Endo actually is, is threshhold braking, or in other words taking the motorcycle to it's limits with braking. I've heard people talk about chirping the tire and locking the front but personally I don't believe in that.

take your time learning, the longer you take to learn right the less chance there is of a screw up.
If you go pracitice for 3 days in a row and all you do is come to a stop. Good, because the better you understand how proper hard braking works the more you'll understand about endos. Can I get a word up? Huh? How bout it

incidently,,,this is a dangerous thing if you screw up don't blame me

 

yo we live in jax, if you want to learn let someone from Geared up know. we will shoot it to you straight.
later

 

this is the same guy that was tryin to give wheelie advice......"in first gear on a 1000 stand on your rear pegs and dump the clutch at redline" it should come up quick but easy to contol" dude your a meat stick stop giving 'advice' your gonna get someone hurt.
