Hello!, my name is Mathijs. I am a streetbike freestyle stuntrider. It means that I drive a custom streetbike in my own style. There are 4 categories in this type of motorsport. Wheelies, stoppies, burnouts and acrobatics. In a contest it is the intention to do as many stunts from the 4 categories in 2 minutes. Unfortunately there aren't many competitions in the Netherlands so I also do stuntshows and demonstrations.
I started stunting in 2007 on a scooter (Yamaha Slider). In 2008 I switched over to a shiftmoped (Motorhispania RX). At this moment I ride a real motorbike (Kawasaki ZX6R). This motorbike is modified for stunts. Many things are adjusted by myself, but there where things I couldn't do.
At that moment I contacted Biggelaar Motors if they could help me. They made me a second braking system and did some special welding on the motorbike.
Thanks for that!!!
