Known problem with the fuel tank. You're sloshing all the fuel away from the pump intake...also happens if you brake hard then do a right turn, I think

The problem is solved on the 06 models, and I think Hals racing had a fix for the old bikes.

Team X-treme was @ Rockingham dragway last month on 12R's, doing 50-70 foot stoppie's. Must have had the Hal upgrades. Give you credit, takes some big one's to do it! 10 feet or 50

actually U4euh its pretty easy... you just apply the brakes gradually and shift your weight forward, in no time you get the hang of it.....
on my other bike( zx9r 2000 ) i start them at 120 km
you should try it, no big deal really just go gradually

So says you Zx, so says you.
My boys run and hide thinking about the all the video's I have seen with stoppie's gone bad, If I could figure how to do it on water, hmmm.....
