What? Go eat some carrots, your eyes are shot. Of course I'm riding the brake, if not their's no way I could keep the wheel that high without looping.

Re: Finally learned BP

man, youll know when you hit it, you let go of the throttle and you keep going and/or you feel as if you dont have any control of the bike but it just keeps going.....then you learn how to control it and when that happens your good to go wherever you want on the back

Keep practicing, you have about 4 more hours to go until balance point.

You stunt all 3? Lets see a video, or pictures of you on a sport bike... Because by your post, I'm guessing you don't actually stunt, just do straight line wheelies chasing rev limit?

50's are childs play, they are simple, cake to stunt. A sport bike is no where near the same.. And I'm not talking about power wheelies, I'm talking about STUNTING.
50's compared to sport bikes are SOOO simple.. They are nothing.. How can you even begin to say a 50 is harder then a sport bike?? I can do 1000x the tricks on my 50 as a sport bike, and I stunt my sport bike everyday.. Can you do a circle on a sport bike? what about high chair circles? no handers? Coasters? I can do a few variations of circles on my sport bike, but on my 50 I got combo circles, HC circles, and whatever circle I want on lock...

Oh **** this flew under radar!!!!! the 70 is easier than the 50, and the sportbike is gravy.. Maybe you were just meant to stay on kid's bikes. You do look about 12!


I can't attach, something is wrong with computer, but look me up on stuntlife.com . Same user name. I got WAAAY less seat time in on my full sizer and have circles on lock. foot in bar, seat stander, sit down(feet up).

I can do figure 8's on a pit bike, but that took hundreds of hours of practice. Circles on a full size took,,,,,,,,, 4, 5 hours?

Plus I'm under youtube under the same name for pit bikes, highstyles for the big oneesss

Just youtubed malott442, not ONE video with a sport bike, stunting.. And there is no user named highstyles, just videos titled that, and there are many riders in the videos, how do I know who is you?

Let's see your circles on a sport bike. Let's see you kill a sport bike harder then a 50.. Like you said, you have figure 8's on the 50, lets see it on your sport bike..



I'm not doubting you can stunt a sport bike, I'm just saying 50's and 70's are way easier.

If you had a easier time on a sport bike, then you are one of the VERY few..

Most my friends that get drunk and ride my 50, can ride circles on it, and do all kinds of tricks, just in a hour or two practice a week while trashed.. On sport bikes however, I'm the only one in my town even spinning circles..

I've been stunting my sport bike about the same time as my 50, and I have way more stuff on lock on the 50 then the sport bike.
But there are a FEW Tricks I have on lock on the sport bike that are hard on the 50, no handers and coasters mainly.



And I don't know what the personal attacks are on me about. Don't be mad because I'm not fat, and aged.



edit: If you post at stuntlife, then post up, post up talking about how sport bikes are easier then 50's. Do it. See what your responses are, I already know what they will be.

The personal attacks are a retaliation from the insults you dished out. "Probably chasing the front end".... Yeah, when I was 17. I don't have video of me on the sportbike, i thought highstyles would, that is who I rode with. I'm no longer on a big bike, had to sell it 2 months ago to move to MA from FL. I don't know about anyone else, but I caught idle within a half an hour of first trying, and could do seat standers and small combos in 2 weeks. Circles on a big bike are easier for me because I'm 6 ft and 250, not fat. The little bikes took 3 months to learn on. The biggins, 2 weekends of ****in around. I must be rare. I apologize for any misunderstanding and sorry about the insult. You do look pretty young though, or maybe I just am getting to damn old.........

Anywho, I've only crashed about 5 or 6 times on a big bike, 3 or 4 hundred on the little guy.

I say that the difference b/w the two is confidence. I jump on the big bike more confident than the fiddy. I really wish i still had it but PHP has it now, I've got 3 street bikes I can't part ways with and WONT stunt. Not ruining my babies:

Circles on a big bike feel easier because tiny differences in the balance are easier to input without overdoing.

Re: Finally learned BP

This is my first post to PM's and I just felt obligated because of how funny this shiot has gotten.

First of all those first pictures are crackin the hell out of me. Dude has such a serious look..

Fools are so quick to jump in and tell everyone how it is. You got one guy actually doing photoshop work to superimpose a clock over the damn picture.

From the look of Shawn742's skills I'm pretty sure he knows damn well where 11:45 is on that mini, some of you just got took for a ride on this one. Frickin comedy! That's some good sense of humor, at least to me.

Re: Finally learned BP

i agree man^^ but also the balancing point doesnt always have to do with how high the front tire is off the ground, your body is like a counterweight. the more further back you are then the less the front tires has to be off the ground, or if you weigh a lot hten the front isnt gonna be off the ground as far. the balancing point is when your balancing the bike and you dont have to give it throttle or tap the brake for it to stay on......so all this 11:45 crap is BS. think about leverage and how it works
