But yeah changing forks is a pain. I thought I was going to have to change a clip on and almost said fuck it before i realized the change would be unnecessary.

Bill @ full throttle can machine inserts in the lower fork halves to keep that from happening but it makes the front end a lot heavier.

stoppies are probly the hardest trick to really master. Cuz once your up and you go a lil to far...there is NO coming back. Usually results in broken collar bones and bruised legs cuz the bike drives you into the ground like a nail. Especailly if your running a Flat 12o'clock bar...aslo know as the "chopping block" cuz thats exactly what it does if it comes down onto your legs. Enjoy!!!
