very hard , i have tried and it doesn't work the way you would think , when you lower th center of gravity and take the travel out of the susp. you give up the ability to use it as a sortof spring to pull the front end up , i would be amazed to see anyone doin more than a wheel carry in 1st or maybe 2nd on a lowered bike !

I would think that all that is necessary is enough hp and traction along with proper control. I figure Big Red probably has no problem, don't ya think? Physics anyone?
