Guy on the main strip in Myrtle Beach riding a Sportster was popping upwhile riding about 30 MPH. Will a stock Sportster do that?

So what are you doing to get up on the back wheel at 30? Just dumping the clutch while rolling on the throttle?

Sorry for the stupid reply, but WHY.
What the hell is the point.
I can jack up the front end of your bike and have you sit on it. Will that do it for you??
I never understood this stupid question.

I smell ya. Its a chromosome thing.
I get it. I have thought about it too.
Just do it in a parking lot and away from the car people.
Car people are stupid.
You dump it, you pay it. HD's cost too much to risk it (in my view)

I was going to go with my boss's famous line......"Do you sit down when you pee?" but I think I got my point across.

Let's not mistake ***** for brains. Those who do usually have more than they need of one and not enough of the other.

Of course that doesn't apply to anybody here, but we all know somebody like that...

Can someone answer this question please? I'm not going out to try, but can a stage 1 with 79 HP at the rear wheel do one, provided the rider knows how to perform?
