Stoppies on a 1995 ZX9R...

Following a mate - he stops at a set lights.
So... Me being clever, thought it would be REALLY cool to stoppie right next to him...
I come flyin up from behind, apply the brakes, lean forward... Schweet...
I stopped just before the line, rear wheel same height as his head...
- I'M A PHARKIN LEGEND!...
Now the word to look for in this story is 'stopped'... I found this is a 'bad' way to end a stoppie... cause you loose sideways balance...
The rear came down on an angle and when it landed, I couldn't hold the bike up...D'oh!... So i had to put it down on the road (with everyone at lights watching
) and my mate too busy laughing to help pic it up.
Oh well...

Did you damage it?

small scratches on the left side fairing...
Did more damage to it when I dropped it riding across another mates lawn...
Neva fixed it, cause some mofo pinched it while I was at work.
Thats why I've got an '01 now...

mofo is urban slang for "Mother F%*ker"
Hope this helps...

Odd, thought it would have been a common term.
Surely it's not just SA and WA?

I pretty sure its only WA ans SA.
You bastards are weird in those area's.
Been to SA and it was ok but alot of difference in language and behaviour.
