I found that the right motivation helps in accomplishing anything.

Hey I've done that, well, almost : ) I did it for a cow, a real cow, on NC150. Cyclone has plenty of stopping power.

I didn't realize the new 800cc bmws used conventional forks.

BTW which one has more guts?

Him for trying that stunt, or...

Her for standing there and having faith in Him with the bike coming straight at her?

Or him for stunting "Indian Larry" style (aka...no helmet).

Hard to kiss wearing a lid. Unless of course you know different

That's Christian Pfeiffer. Google him to learn more. Saw him perform live last year at Laguna Seca while I was there for the MotoGP.

I would not take the chance of wrecking my Buell or myself. (get an old piece of junk dirt bike and a find a big field if your going to try the stunt stuff).

I'm not a fan of stunting sans gear.

I was just commenting on the faith she has in him to stand there as the bike comes rushing straight at her. That's gutsy.

I agree, if you aren't confident with wheelies, don't try to do stoppies.

Consider this. If your car / pickup truck / whatever had a large pointed spike facing your chest coming out of the steering wheel, would you change the way you drive, or cease driving altogether?

Heck no.. I would get my hack saw a cut dat somitch' off!
