Stoppie Pointers for fiddys plz!!! Hi, Ok I used seach and also browsed youtube and beside really cool videos I didnt find anything useful... Any pointer for doing a stoppie on a fiddy. From what I gather I need to pick up some speed...apply the front brake and put weight on the front? Can we go into details please? My front brake is pretty weak to start with (compared to the R6 that is) How exaclty are you suppose to shift the weight to the front.... Help :shruggs thks -Juice |
Re: Stoppie Pointers for fiddys plz!!! This is B0arder606...to answer your ? just push your body to the front of the bike, pull the brake and lean forwards all at once....and Balls lots of Balls. This is the technique i use and ive been rolling 20-25' consistently |
Re: Stoppie Pointers for fiddys plz!!! lose your shirt ASAP...youll pick up 10-15 feet IMMEDIATELY....post pics too....:LOL |
Re: Stoppie Pointers for fiddys plz!!! bwahahaha I don't have any balls dude!!!! ok so lean forward all at once !!! That's it? whats 20-25? what happend to your other id/profile? I hear many says to keep your arm straight/tensed when speaking of stoppie on big bikes...does it appply here to? Also which gear? 1 st fast enough? |
Re: Stoppie Pointers for fiddys plz!!! 20 -25 im guessing is the feet he rolls, and im with loogie, deff lose the shirt and u will be rolling stoppies in no time :cheers |

Re: Stoppie Pointers for fiddys plz!!! Yea i mean 20ft to 25ft...there was the little ' indicating that.... Anyway lock your arms and put your crotch up by the take lean forward and pull the brake. and try not to loop cause its painful when a 50 lands on you |
Re: Stoppie Pointers for fiddys plz!!! practice practice loop practice some more ..... 1st is not fast enough on a 50 3rd pinned .. i was rollin 120'-130' a few years ago on a stock fitty with bars and a 88 kit .. Hap from KC was rollin over 250' on a stock 50 with bars .. just practice practice practice things happen alot faster on a 10in wheel ... here's a little inspiration .... mitch adams rollin over 300' on a pit bike [url]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QByjxtU-wUU[/url] |
Re: Stoppie Pointers for fiddys plz!!! with the stock brake setup you gotta bounce & jerk your body forward(hard to explain) to pop it up,which is inconsistant. Add a extended brake arm and it will make it come up alot easier,with only a small bounce. you can get a stock honda ruckus front brake arm for 10 bucks at a honda dealer,its a 1/2 inch longer than the stock 50 one 300ft is nuts, in fact, just a 100ft is nuts,haha |
Re: Stoppie Pointers for fiddys plz!!! 3rd gear?! = scary |
Re: Stoppie Pointers for fiddys plz!!! did you try the shirt off trick yet ? worked for me |
Re: Stoppie Pointers for fiddys plz!!! yea over 50 feet is nuts...even floating them i cant see the speed to go 300' with a stock setup. Maybe some solid forks, disc brakes and a 150 motor pinned 4th gear haha. Floating is scary as hell. i do it everyonce in a while and end up putting my feet out. |

[URL]http://www.esd-mfg.com/50stunt/controls_brake_arm.htm[/URL] I called the local Honda Powerhouse and they don't carry it :Waahhhhh Man 50 stunt is gonna make money with me... So far on my shopping list : Rear brake set-up, Stunt Pegs (bmx don't fit) and now the brake arm... Also is it worth it to go all out and get the disc brake assembly? it looks like you have to change the whole wheel which can be costly... :broke |

When dudes were telling they had drop hundreds/thousand of dollards on a 1000$ bike I didn't get it:shruggs...I see now... :banghead I'll try the weird bounce/yanking technique Tanus mentionned in the meantime....geeeezzzz |
Re: Stoppie Pointers for fiddys plz!!! yo juice...did you try the shirtless/braless technique yet????:LOLtry it....its $$$$$:aplaya |
Re: Stoppie Pointers for fiddys plz!!! I'm with Tanus, it's almost all weight transfer. The stock brakes are really strong enough to pick you up on their own so you've got to throw your weight pretty hard to get the tail moving up. I come in pretty hot, give it a small bounce, as the shock rebounds I throw forward, and grab a handful of brake. You need to pick it up pretty high from the start then just make small adjustments from there. |

Re: Stoppie Pointers for fiddys plz!!! [QUOTE=Ju-C;4093915] BOUNCE then BRake[/QUOTE]that one,its all about timing, thats what makes it inconsistant. for the brake arm, just go to the honda dealer and tell them you wanna order "a 2005 honda ruckus front brake arm" should be 8-12 bucks,looks like a 2 inch metal bracket |
