Make sure you don't go in hot cause maybe you'll lock up and loose your front end and its hard to recover from a front lock.

I will never do another stoppie on my zx EVER.
My buddy snapped his forks yesterday in a 50mph stoppie.
No bueno.

was there a weak link? Something to explain why it snapped so easily? Or is it just stoppies put so much stress on the front end that this happens?
