As it says^.

There are a couple of places round this neck of the woods where.....well:eek:.....you sort of get airborne:rockon:. I'm pretty certain the highest I've got would be around 10 inches.

Cheers

There's this one turn on a road called Highland Valley Road. I brake into it and as I accelerate hard out of it, there's a dip in the road and my front end always goes airborne about 6 inches. It's fun!!!! :BLAA:
 
What's this, about a foot? :)

Dunno. Probably about ten inches or so, (both wheels - accidental).
 
there are a few places I know of where I purposely get airborne. the highest I've got is probably between 6 to 8 inches (rear wheel) (front probably a foot and a half simotaneously) but I'm one of these :squid:
 
I've jumped mine. It felt like a lot, but I'd be surprised if I was three inches off of the ground.

I've jumped dirt bikes higher, but they cost less and the ground is softer.

He did, I was behind him. My shorts were brown after that one!

The front end of my FZ was about three feet off the ground as it dangled from the tailgate of my pickup. As it decided to lay down I flew about three feet over it and landed on the lawn. Stupid ramps and trucks...trailers are much better.
 
Not very far...a couple of inches.....i am a fattish 105kg's, and gravity sucks! plus i dont like jumping over crests in the road....especially when i cant see, or know what's on the the other side!

but this one time, when i was flat out in top gear at 290km/h, i hit a crest and got 2ft in the air.....



then i woke up, all wet and gooey! ;)

You weren't dreaming about your avatar again were you?:eek::spank::spank::spank::eek::ban:
 
There used to be a great hump back bridge near my old house in blighty.
If you hit it at 50 mph you got great air probably about 10 inches to a foot off the ground.
The actual air bit was easy, it was the bottle to go over it at that speed.
hitting it at 30 - 40 mph just got the front off the deck and it would all go a bit wobbly lol.
