[QUOTE="FMX_novice, post: 161862, member: 21243"] If a bike is more stable, does that mean its less likely to change pitch from parallel to the ground? I have never went off a jump straight no matter how low the rpms and landed sideways. The key is, in what RPM's is the bike most perpendicularly stable. Since the rear wheel will increase its speed at a faster rate in the heart of the powerband i think the bike would be less perpendicularly stable at high RPM's. Also the brake would have a more dramatic effect at higher speeds. A jump in 4th gear mid will have good stability, perpendicular and parallel to the ground because the wheel is spinning fast, keeping the rubber side down, and the bike will rev slower because it is producing less power on the low RPMs'. Now, i want everyone to go out this weekend and find the biggest double and hit it in 6th gear pinned, tell me how stable the bike is, or have your priest post a copy of your eulogy here. :p [/QUOTE]
