Both acceleration and a stoppie would compress the frame, just from opposite ends of the bike. He could twist the belt into a figure 8 and take a few passes down the strip backwards. Yes, that might do it.

I assume you've got very few trophies from the science fair in grade school and lots of nasty notes from teachers too?

thread hijack...sorry

No trophies, and I threw away the notes unread.

Are you saying acceleration caused by the rear axle pushing the bike forward would cause the frame to get longer, or am I completely off the mark?

Shorten the frame by putting the front wheel against a barrier and do a burnout, repeat as many times as necessary.

Bob has the correct answer.

The tank is tied to your 401k.

Remember the burnout must be done facing west to compensate for the rotation of the earth. I'm sure the lunar phase is important too, but above my head.

The bike is more prone to wheelie than burnout and the last stoppie I did scared the piss out of me, Damm Jack Russel Terrier! I would be perfectly happy doing lots of burnouts and I guess since I asked for explanations that were just shy of insane, I got exactly what I asked for. The original tank still looks good except for the big gap between the tank and the seat
