Default Endo on a Quadzilla???

Hey, Well consitering I cant do them on my wolverine or my polaris how well do you think my quadzilla will endo. (up on the front wheels, reverse wheelie or whatever different people call it).

Ive been doing wheelies for years but i havent had the nuts to attempt an endo but I think its time to kick it up a knotch. Just looking for any tips on doing it or if anybody thinks the zilla is a bad choice to try it with. I know my brakes are pretty good but it is a real long frame. I dont know if my buddy will let me practice on his 400ex.

Stoppie. Thats the phrase you're looking for. Started them on my old EX and now do them every once in awhile on the 250R. Word of advice, Grass and Sand are much more forgiving than concrete/asphalt.

yeah I have a feeling that if i go over definatly not pushing the zill aback with my hand lol. Well when the grass gets not so wet and muddy around here ill give it a try a suppose. what speed do you guys start at and do to feather it in or jam it right away. should i start to compress the shocks first then slam the brake in??

I did an accidental endo on my zilla once. It was pitch dark and I was goin down a field and approaching a corner in 4th, I hit the back brakes but since it was rain I was only sliding, at this stage I was headin for a dirt mound and an electric fence so I grab the front brakes and up she goes. Its as scary as **** and never again thanks. One thing if you do do it lie back onto the seat and try from slower speeds and build you'r way up, and as you get higher relaease the pressure on the brakes. And good luck (you'll need it if that thing comes up too far)
