When I first got my 2005 R3 Standard... I intentionally tried bringing the front end up.... I would ride in second gear... do a little throttling then I would throttle down to let the front end dip a bit..after it dipped down I would throttle up and pull the handlebars and lay back to bring the front end up a bit... I did a few short ones.. then I finally got the balls to try to ride it out.. the bike came up nice and clean.. all I could see was the gas tank... almost ****ted myself and set the bike back down... I felt like I rode like 100 feet.. but im sure it was more like 3 feet...
