But now I can't bump the bump at all, so I still haven't gotten it 

Also, sometimes the camera shakes like shit when driving, other times it doesn't. Is there a particular reason for it?

Yes. If you load a quick save too many times, your screen will start shaking and the camera will start bugging out. This generally happens after a few hours of play. I think stunter's are pretty much the only people who would discover this kind of bug . To fix this, reload the game. Also, make sure to load your save again after starting up if you want to get your special meter filled back up. As for the bump, just take the time to learn the intricacies of the spot, and try new ways of approaching it.

Use shorter runups for higher wheelies, use curbs to help you pull a wheelie, and lean forwards before pulling a wheelie. Try all of that and see how it pans out. I've literally just gone back to one of my first bumps and landed a building that's 50ft higher to a precision; that's how much I've improved over the last two weeks. You will all feel the same

Another thing I found that probably is obvious, but I didn't know, is that the bike works like a cat. If you do a 180 degree flip and let go of the lean button it will quickly finish it's flip. Like really quickly. if you are under 180 degrees, it will finish it by spinning forward, of you're over it's spin backwards. If you are leaning a bit to the side it might just do half a barrel roll to finish it, point is that it does it quickly, so can be useful if your stunt isn't big or long enough for an entire backflip, using it you can get the most out of the lean back method as well as landing the stunt

Aye, I've tried to use this to land a backfllip in a small space already

SS, do you even work? Or do you only stunt like 16hours per day without eating and with no piss break

[s[a1]nt NM]

You gain a significant amount of extra height and distance if you lean back in the air (ie. doing a backflip).

backflip not required. enough to press down and hold Left trigger on your gamepad

GTA V Vehicle - Carbon RS - Collector's Edition Bike (rare) + Wheelies & Wheelie Fails
GTA 5 Motorcycles - Carbon RS - Collectors Edition (GTA V)

Has anyone tried this bike from the Collectors Edition and how is it compared to the other bikes?

[VaNilla]

I haven't tried it myself, but from the videos you posted, it seems about in line with the Bati in terms of the wheelies and stoppies. However, the Bati has slightly more traction than the Carbon RS (everything else is the same). If it could wheelie as well as the Ruffian, the Carbon would probably be the best bike for stunting, but it seems to me that it's worse than the Bati as a fast bike, and worse than the Ruffian as a high bump/combo bike, so I'm not sure how useful it really is.

[Daffy]

It looks like it handles really well though and you can make some really sharp turns with it, but anyway are you basing any of that from any stats from the game or from your observations from watching the videos?
EDIT: Yep seem pretty similar, still I'm at eBay looking for a European collectors edition now:P

Heres some easier to read vehicle stats

Considering getting an Elgato Capture HD. But it's expensive and would mean buying another hardrive too

This is probably the best discovery yet, I've been trying a stunt that I couldn't reach at all. With this shit I almost overflew it. Man, the difference is massive. Thanks

By the way, someone previously mentioned that while driving cars, using the slow motion ability actually gives you an acceleration boost. I think that I said they were wrong, but I've just realised that they were actually right . Turn slow motion on and off while driving in a car, and you will boost to max speed very quickly . I assume the same applies to bikes, haven't tested it yet.

That was me, and yes it indeed does

Found a few ways of surviving larger falls if you don't use the invisibility cheat or it runs out right after you start falling. Number 1, I haven't really tested it too many times, but if you are Trevor you can use his special ability and he won't take fall damage. I found something for the other two as well, but it requires precision timing  If you press pause right before you're about to hit the ground, then load a mission, then when it asks you "are you sure?" press no, it will speed forwards a few frames without being in game, so when you get back to the game you'll just be on the ground with no fall damage taken, if you do it too early you'll still be in the air though. I'll see if I can make a video of this soon  Might also be possible if you see a bump going wrong, but again, timing is everything.

Any news on where to find a decent motorcycle? I can't find shit.

[Simon]

Go to your phone, internet, something vehicles, find a site that has shit you want and buy it 

[Turtle Boy]

Okay I bought a garage and the bati with michael . how do I trade it to franklin? Or does franklin have access to the garage?
