Get a dirt bike with crappy tires and go riding in a wet, grassy field. You'll learn all about counter steering, throttle control, braking, weight transfer, looking ahead, staying loose/relaxed and picking up a dropped bike. Wonder how Nicky can throttle steer at 150+ mph? He started by dirt riding, then racing and working up to that speed. I'll never be any kind of racer but I don't freak when one of the ends starts to slip a little.

Exactly right. A lot of top roadracers spend time on flattrackers and supermoto bikes. Riding on the dirt is by far the best way to learn to ride or improve your skills. If you have never fallen down, how do you know how close to the edge you are?

shah269...that was awesome,
I can't tell if you write for Playboy or National Lampoon but that was a great writeup, can you tell me how to do a stoppie next? I've got the perfect parking lot at the local WallMart that I can't wait to hit.

Notice how little space the mention of a high-side ate up? Funny stuff though!

Look man I've owned two bikes a white, yah white, dish washer May freaking tag dude its white 87 700VFR
And now a dam that thing is freaking huge look at the size of that dam thing what is it a limo Spinal Tap Black GPZ-1100
The VFR had really skinny forks and the GPZ is a fat piggy. I'm told if one attempts stoppies on a 96 Dam! that thing is black! like really black! GPZ-1100 the space time continuum would fold in up on its self and horrible things will happen.
The last time this was attempted the ever sexy Janet Jackson, dam why is she realted to that crazy brother of hers, fell for that, what the hell is that a tan mini mi with bad teeth, Germain Dupree.
But every one thought it was some sort of joke and or just a fluke or that Mr. Dupree must be packing some sort of large caliber howitzer. Thus so a Mr. Bob Jones, BJ for short, of north, god dam that's one flat ass piece of land Texas attempted another stoppie on his plum crazy you have to have big balls to ride a purple bike like that boy GPZ sighting the fact that he hadn't seen a decent curve in ages.
The consequences of his actions are still being felt today, note Pam dam look at them hooter Anderson and her on again off again engagement with, there is some thing wrong with that white boy and where did his little buddy go Kid Rock and the appearance of melonen in wow this is got to be the whitest state in the union Utah.
Thus I'm sorry but at the moment I can't tell you how to do stoppie!
For at the moment I'm not allowed to attempt one on my current, dam what is that a limo or some thing GPZ.
But from what I'm told when doing a stoppie, or otherwise affectionally known in repair circles" that will be $300 for those blown fork seals sir", will cause the erogenous zone of nearby women to not only expand %300 but to engulf most of the empty parking lot. Further more her G spot will actually be visible from space due to the argon lazer which will be emitted from it. Thus assuring you, wow he rocked my world status among the many scantally leather clad hunnies in micro minis which often frequent these parking lots hoping to pick up the occasional gold filling in order to pay for their training in massage therapy class.
