Who in their right mind would do this

**ckay** · 09-05-2008, 03:57 PM

I would if I didn't have common sense. No different than doing it on a BMX bike, mini bike, or dirtbike from when I was a kid.

Except, a sport bike isn't designed to jump, this would destroy your suspension.

Who gives a shit? Don't tell me you never used something in a manner it wasn't designed for...

and the street tires... u wont get any kind of traction if ur jumpin like that

**1999nbmZ** · 09-06-2008, 08:03 PM

Come on now, that was just a little jump. I may be willing to try that...on someone else's bike!

At least it didnt turn out like this one. (Sorry, I know it's old)

He started off with confidence, got a little shaky in the middle, was thrown off a couple times but still managed a strong finish in under 8 seconds. Just like when I lost my virginity.

If you're talking about jumping my sportbike, then no. Now put some longer traveling suspension on it and I'd be game for it.

Is that WSBK? I forget the name of the track, but don't guys pop their chain constantly? I've seen a few videos of it on youtube.

**redneckrider** · 09-10-2008, 07:24 AM

the best part of that is how it kicks him the ass one last time and throws him even farther.

SPL170db · 09-10-2008, 07:33 AM

Out of all the videos I watched on youtube yesturday, only a couple of guys were getting both wheels off the ground. Even then, a couple of them ate shit too.
