The opposite of a wheelie. According to Timberwoof's Motorcycle FAQ, "A stoppie is when you stop with the front brake in such a way that you purposely bring the rear wheel off the ground." Stoppies are kind of a dangerous trick. It is when you stop on the front wheel, weight forward, and being the rear wheel off the ground to a balance position. The reason why it is SO dangerous is because if the bike stops faster than you think that it will, you may flip over the handlebars. And the bike may also land on you. So if you are going to try this trick be REALLY careful. Also called an Endo,,,,,,,,,,,, Since this question is on the safety section I will suggest that you don't do it.. Unless you are professional and since you are asking the question my guess is that you are not... Answer unless you are a dare devil then in which case we can not and absolutely will not be able to be held legally response able for your idiotic actions.

How do you do stoppie on bike?

first off, make sure that where you're at has enough traction to not slide the front wheel and fall. When you go to do a stoppie, slow down a little bit, pull in the clutch, and simultaneously move to the front of the seat and use the front brake to stop hard, and the back wheel will lift up.


How can you do a stoppie on an mtb bicycle?

I have never tried this before but I'm 99.9% sure that this is correct. All that you do is lean forward and hold the front break. DO NOT PULL THE BREAK ALL THE WAY BACK! If you do, you will flip over the handlebars.


How do you make a sttope in motorbike?

Brake hard enough on a bike with good and warm tyres. High (vertically) position of the pilot helps, thus traditionel bikes is easier to make stoppies on than sportsbikes. In addition wider handlebars helps the control during the stoppie!

How do you perform a stoppie in your pulsar 150?

Dude, follow the following steps and you'll get a nice stoppie:- 1. Warm up your front discs by simply applying the brake slightly and running your bike. 2. After this, run the bike at a speed of as low as15km/h, in case you apply the disc harshly you may not topple over. 3. Instead of jamming the brakes completely as many people may say, gradually nand slowly increase the braking pressure before jamming brakes completely. 4. As the above step is done, hold your grip tight both on the handle bar and on the fuel tank, and push your bike forward without getting of your seat. 5. If everything goes well, you'll slightly pop yourself a stoppie, not high enough but under safe limits. 6. Please repeat the above stated steps as frequently as you can so that you easily get used upto to them. 7. Once you are used up to them, increase your speed uptill 30km/h. This will make your stoppies higher. 8. When you get familiar with the stopping factors, you can try rollin stoppies by simply increasing your speed and decreasing pressure on the brake lever. That's all dude, know you are a stoppie king. Note: 1. Police hates stunting on bikes, so better check you are alone. 2. Check the gripp of the front tyre and that of the road because uneven grip can lead to accidents. 3. Always wear you safety gear cause you won't know when you'll topple over. 4. In case you topple and break yourself and your bike, please for god sake, don't blame me cause I have flipped thrice of my pulsar and dude it really hurts. Goodluck..............
