How to do a rolling burnout

Leaving a gathering of bikers quietly is fine. But covering them in smoke and specks of melted rubber is better.

1 Start moving
Trickle away from a standstill at
no more than 5mph and stand on the pegs. Gather your thoughts for steps
2-5, which all happen simultaneously.

2 Pull the clutch in and blip the throttle
Being the revs up swiftly to the middle of the range (the level where the engine is putting out around 50bhp is ample).

3 Apply the front brake
Do this at the same time as bringing the revs up. Come to a virtual stop.

4 Throw your weight forward
Get as much weight
over the front wheel as you can as it’s this which helps the rear tyre
break traction more than the engine power.

5 Drop the clutch
The rear tyre will break
traction instantly. Keep your weight over the front. Don’t relax. If
the rear wheel grips it will break the front tyre’s grip and throw you
off.

6 Feed out the front brake
Once the tyre is
spinning freely, gradually release the front brake to generate forward
momentum. Keep the revs up towards peak power. If the front wheel feels
like it’s drifting away from you, lean forward and increase the revs.
Adjust your speed with brake control only.

7 Change up (optional)
To create a thick screen
of smoke you need to change gear. Maintain your stance, keep rolling
then in one movement whip in the clutch, give a big blip of throttle,
change up then drop the clutch again. The rear must never have a chance
to stop spinning and get traction. Once you’re into the higher gears
you can relax a bit more because the rear is spinning so fast it will
never grip.

8 Don’t go too fast
Or you’ll be catching up with your spinning rear wheel, increasing the chances of it gripping.

9 Ride into the sunset
To convert your burnout
into clean drive, throttle off a bit, then completely release the front
brake with your weight still forward. As the wheel catches, move your
weight back into the seat and get ready to control the wheelie that
will result as the tyre grips.

NB:
Rolling burnouts are antisocial, bad for
your tyres and not many people have learned to do them without having
some kind of mishap along the way. If you can’t afford to replace
several potentially expensive bits of your bike, don’t try it.
