We stunt on a Friday, party Saturday and sleep Sunday!
What's your weekend plans? We fly out to Denmark today (Friday 20th) to meet up with Craig Jones to get some stunt tuition on the most unlikely bikes (Harley-Davidson Ultra anyone?) and Buell.
I have just been on the phone with Craig Jones that currently is in Denmark for a stunt show next weekend. Craig's got the world record for the longest rolling stoppie and he'll teach me how to do it in Denmark. From 119 mph, he travelled 225 metres (740 feet) on the front wheel of a Buell XB9S lightning!
I also asked Jones whether it is possible to stoppie on a V-rod. It's virtually impossible to even do a wheelie, but Craig's already done that by transforming all his weight to the back of the modified V-rod he uses. A stoppie is impossible even Craig admitted, but he's working on a couple of Harley's now to make his stunts easier.
Reports will include stoppie/wheelie/burnout school and interview with Craig coupled with spectacular photography. There's a somewhat bigger chance than usual that I'll end up sliding on my arse on this one! By Tor Sagen/Photo: Craigjones.com-Harley-Davidson
