Some of you probably remember me. Some of you probably won't.

I've popped on here from time to time over the last few years and "input" my much limited knowledge on stuntin and such.

I was checking in today and it's god to see that the conversations on "how to clutch up a wheelie" and "shifting a wheelie" are still alive and well.

That's cool and all. As long as young peeps are buying sport bikes there are going to be questions on how to stunt them suckas.

You old timers on here, I'm sure you know who you are... I'm sure you are getting tired of answering the same five questions over and over. How to wheelie, how to stoppie, what gear, what speed, how much tire pressure... you get the idea. The thing is though, old timers... these guys are bright eyed and bushy tailed just waiting for your answer. They wasn't old enough to drive when you wrote your "manual" and they are young, full of piss and vinager, and don't have time to read through 70 pages of old threads to find your old news, hence, you are going to be rewritting the same news several times. You know what though, that's o.k. Because along with the garble about throttle wacking, on off on, second gear, clutch at 30, or whatever the newest wheelie flavor is for this month I'm sure, (without even looking), that you are also throwing in several "be carefuls" and "take your time" and "wear gear" advice that they are going to need even more then the specifics on how to hoist that balance point 2nd gear wheelie that goes for 1.7 miles. (I never beat that by the way, that's how much I suck!!!!)

Kudos to all you patient advise givers. Kudos to all you gear nazis. I can't believe this area is still going to strong after so much time has passed but ya know what? I'm glad.

When I have more time to play with yall maybe I'll double back and we'll have a big debate on sit-downs verses stand-ups for beginners.

Peace out!

i only get mad when they dont read my shifitng 101 sticky thread
i mean come on all the infos there!! its PERFECT
but its just the fact that they'd feel more secure if someone was replying to them in direct
that is why in the posts you'll usually see "i have a 99GSXR600" or "My gsxr1000 wont wheelie" or "my 2k5CBR600rr doesnt do endos" they are looking for input that is directed towards themselves......even though i think all the bikes are the same when you get down to it.

yes.. they are

stunt and they'll crash

race them and they'll crash

let your most trusted friend take her for a spin...... and he'll crash

basically, they will crash, lol
