Stoppies and SBK2001?

Has anybody successfully been doing stoppies in SBK2001? I think I've read somewhere that in an early beta it was possible. Are there any file that could be tinkered with? /Carl

They're the opposite of a wheelie. A wheelie lifts the front wheel from too much power, a stoppie lifts the rear wheel from too much braking ;) -- Ian P <email invalid due to spam> Thom j. <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:wgAM6.6701$[email hidden]... > Sorry Carl but what the "H" are "stoppies"??? > > "Carl Ribbegaardh" wrote: > | Has anybody successfully been doing stoppies in SBK2001? > | I think I've read somewhere that in an early beta it was possible. > | Are there any file that could be tinkered with? > | /Carl > > >

Todd I got on my first motorcycle in 1961 {wow its been that long? yikes} and raced from the mid 60s until about 74-75. Unless my memory is going in my old cabaza`{which is possible mind you} the word "Stoppie." is new to me! Over the top, Off the Highside, etc yes but never "stoppie"!! Sorry. Cheers Thom_j. "O" I had a Honda for a week but my first bike was an old single cylinder 500cc BSA & they were called "thumbers" by all the racers. What a ride! "Todd Walker" wrote: | Are you serious Thom?

You forgort the Flying W. We called single cylinder 4 strokes Thumpers not Thumbers... My first bike was in 1973/4 One of the first Honda Two Stroke bikes...not the MX racer but the street/trail version of the MT 250 Elsinore. I spent the next two years turning it into a macho dirt bike, with Aluminum wheels, plastic fenders 3 gal desert tank, fancy Euro Shocks, and a CR 250 Piston(the MX racer piston) I had a pretty mean machine...it got stolen right about then. dave henrie "Andre Warringa" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:[email hidden]...

That's why you haven't heard of it then, the old drum brakes back then didn't have enough stopping power to do a stoppie :) -- Ian P <email invalid due to spam> Thom j. <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:c3LM6.39$[email hidden]... > Todd I got on my first motorcycle in 1961 {wow its been that long? yikes} > and raced from the mid 60s until about 74-75.

If you're talking about stopping the bike and doing a burnout, yeah, with dual axis pedals or dual axis whatever-you're-using, it's possible.

I'm a Yank and I knew what a stoppie was. Frankly I would have expected it to be fairly easy to figure out. KFG

Here is a little quicktime movie that will explain just what a stoppie is...and the intelligence needed to pull it off. Thanks from the TPTCC mailing list. I think credit goes to Paul Hamilton for finding it... some bad language...be warned... http://www.jcisportbikes.com/wreck.mov dave henrie
