So, I have been just randomly searching stunting stuff, not trying to be a squid or anything , but how the dink do you do a BUNNY HOP on a 400 pound bike!?

My only hypothesis is that as the front wheel is going up, the rider puts his feet under the pegs and hits the back brake while pulling up with his feet?
What the dink...
So AWESOME!
And, also because a GS500 can actually do a 2 foot wheelie-ish, would it be possible to pull this off?

I doubt he was actually pulling up with his feet. The main part would definitely be wheelie to back brake, I would think the rest might he his thighs pushing forward on the gas tank or something like that, although I can't see the video at work to actually watch. It wouldn't hurt if you had the balance to actually bounce the back end a little bit before you hit the brake, although the wheelie itself should do a pretty good job of compressing the suspension

That is friggin epic, so, as the front wheel is comnig up JAM the back brake down.
Bunny hop.
Might beed to try this.

Raise center of gravity (wheelie) then rotate the bike around the CG by pushing HARD on the bars... stopping rotation of both wheels might help too

I'm betting that he bounces hard done on the pegs to compress the rear shock and use that to bounce the bike off the ground.

I can bunny hop a bmx bike...but not my gsxr
