Go to racerxonline.com and check out the "tell me a story" section with Denny stephenson, there is an almost identical pic of Denny doing this on his Kx125, except maybe even a little gnarlier. Anyway check it out its funny too.

Everyone should try tubeless tires. Really. Less hassle, less rolling resistance, more traction, less danger of events like this. You will not regret it.
