Yeah if your not expecting rubbern and cords to be all over everything back there, I would think twice about it. Cords can come up and whip the brakelight/tailsection and scratch or even crack things. If your ok with that then getter done.
And have someone video tape it so we can see too.

roll about 10mph, brake semi hard to lighten the rear end (almost like you are gonna do a baby stoppie but dont lift the rear wheel offa the ground) let out the clutch (dont slip the clutch, if you use the front brake right to lighten the rear end enough, it will start spinnin when you let the clutch out) and get on the gas at the same time you let out the clutch. Stay below 4k rpms. High rpms equal more responsiveness for steering and faster donuts, Low rpms equal ease of control, the bike will be slow and predictable. As soon as you let out the clutch and get on the gas, slowly let pressure off the front brake while staying in the gas and you are now doing a rolling burnout. This takes a little practice, clutch,gas and brake timing are key. Modulate the front brake while always keeping the gas constant. If you let out the brake too much, you need more gas to keep it going. Experiment, have fun. Once you get the rolling burnies countersteer and lean inside for donuts.

The bike is stalling because you're still sitting on the seat. Easy 1st-timer burnout, stop, put your feet on the ground, keep your ass off the seat, bury the front brake lever, grab a few thousand revs (~4K), let the clutch out quickly. The tire will break free instantly. Smoke in good health!
My first few attempts were lessons in stalling too. My stock 600cc didn't want to light the tire with much weight on it.
setuid: Thanks for the How-to on rolling burnouts! I wandered in here looking for input on just that. Quickie question: Once the back tire is lit and the bike rolling along slowly, can I lean back off the bars into a more comfortable position, putting more weight on the back tire?

tang: yeah, however the more weight you transfer to the back, the more rpms you need to keep that back tire spinning. If you dont have enough rpms kickin you will push the front. The main trick is to be smooth with the brake and steady with the throttle. Any choppy brake inputs and you are likely to push the front (letting your rpms drop too much will cause this also). Its all practice. Once you get steady, you can do sitdown donuts and rolling burnies.
