Well, I am a short height rider, I cannot reach both sides of my bike simultaneously and only my boot tips touch the ground at best.The seat height of my bike is 790mm, so when I stand up, it goes without saying that I am keeping the bike on one foot.

Even then I tried Burn-out with on foot down.

This is how I attempted it:
1.I started the bike and revved upto 6000 rpms.
2.Pulled in the front brake and held it there hard.
3.Pulled in the clutch.
4.Shifted to first gear.
5.Popped the clutch.

What happened is that the bike just jumps ahead after its rear spins once or twice sideways.It happens everytime.No matter how hard I brake or try to keep the weight forward on the high handlebars,the bike keeps going forward even with the front disc squeezed to the max.

Result is,I get more black marks on the tarmac from the front wheel rather than rear wheel

Please help me with some advice as to how a short rider like me can attempt a Burn-out successfully.
I guess you got the order of operation wrong!!..
it goes like...
1. Start the bike and let it idle.
2. Pull-in the clutch and engage 1st gear.
3. Lock the front brakes.
4. Revv the engine to say 6000rpm.
5. Leave the clutch halfway before popping it.
and there you have your rear wheel spinning and smoking..make sure you are maintaining the correct air pressure in your tyres..pumping-in a few extra psi would also aid in getting the back wheel spinning easily.
hope this has helped you bro..and happy smoking!!!

The only reason for me suggesting the rolling burnout was keeping in mind that our friend can only get one foot on the ground - so maybe he cud get a better balance while having both feet on the footrest + that would also help tranfer more(complete) weight onto the handlebar - but then sure, that isn't too easy either until one learns the art hai na?

+1 to GRZ , keep as much weight on front as possible and compress the front forks with your hands , you can even try sitting on tank with 1 foot on ground . otherwise front does not grip the road and bike will drag forward with front tire skidding instead of rear .

@all who posted and wanted to help :

Today I had attempted both rolling and stand still burnout and I achieved some degree of success in both.Hence thank you all for advising.

I would specially like to thank Yaser and throttle_GRZ for their useful inputs.

The standstill burnout: Since I did not have the Fiero or the shorter bike with me today, so I did a small trick. I opened the seat of my GS150R and got on the bike, both my feet reached the ground albeit only the front of the feet touched the ground.Then I did exactly what throttle_grz suggested and maybe I had got a burnout.I had this feeling,at first the bike went sideways, meeting my leg firmly there it came to middle and then some sound like exploding of small firecrackers was heard from the rear wheel and I felt that the rear wheel was spinning at the same time.I maintained it in the first gear but only for 15 secs or so. Then I watched for marks on the tarmac and it did have black rubber marks but also rubber dust on it.I am not aware of any smoke since I was keeping all my weight on the front and didn't even care to look back.After this happily I tried to repeat the process once more, but failed twice after it and gave it up for the day.
The stupid front of the bike kept moving forward in all the later cases.Maybe I wasn't putting much weight on the front as I tried to look at the rear wheel this time.The high handlebars on this bike couple with my short height poses tough challenge for executing good burnouts on this bike.

The rolling burnout: This had to be the savage attempt. When my bike was clocking 22kmph or so, I got on the footpegs and put the weight of my entire torso on the handlebars and pulled in the brake gently with the clutch fully disengaged, the bike was about to stall when I started putting more throttle to it, The rear tyre screamed in protest as the bike slowly moved forward, I continued it for two metres or so and then suddenly the bike swayed left.Fearing about dropping the bike, I let go of the throttle and ended the rolling burnout.This time again I did not take note of any smoke but, I stopped my bike and looked back, well there was a wet black stretch of tyre mark on the road which confirms the tyre drag and scream was actually a burnout.But even this burnout was joined by failures before and after the successful attempt.The first time I tried to do it, The bike stalled.The last time I tried to do it the bike stalled again.

I hope after this I will get insights on how to refine this technique from others

For now I think I need a tank pad, because attempts of putting weight forward had the buckle of my belt scratch the tank
