INteresting question

[pastorfreak]

I was told by a Triumph sales-person that they know that the Rocket could do a stoppie, I am questioning that due to the length and weight of the Rocket. What does everyone else think? Those who have tried or done one, I and I am sure others, would like to hear about it. With this size, length and weight of a Rocket motorcycle, a stoppie would be truly impressive.

I am afraid that a stoppie on a rocket would result in a stoppie with my face on the pavement. I prefer a goie.

Maybe on a 45 degree down-hill stop.. On level ground, I'm betting the weight would push the front tire into a slide before the rear tire came off the ground..

I'd have to agree with the majority thus far. Strange concept I know. Help yourself.

No thanks, I didint think it was possible, but he swore ot me it was. He said the stunt rider for Triumph does it. I told them I saw him do it on another bike but not on a Rocket he does power wheelies etc but no stoppies.

PF.....We want to see you do it with the ape hangers installed......

I'm with Raymond for a change.......A Goie is way better.

Hey Pf

The key word in your statement was STUNT rider. Hey gets paid to hit the pavement, I have to pay when I hit the pavement.
