What's up guys been a while since I been on here since my accident. Went down in april not so fun.. anyways I'm back to riding thank God and well since then its as if I supppose I forgot or I'm just to scared to give it throttle but I cant wheelie like before. Anyone here wheelie their F2? Cluthpop.. I used to do it on first go up to about 4-6krpm and rev and pop the clutch but not sure what it is I can't stand it up anymore. For anyone here thinking "blah thats a dumb idea" "you're an idiot" I don't care if you've never wheelied just don't even comment

 

Yea, mine is too finicky to keep the front wheel down. Yoshi race pipes, stage 4 or 5 jet kit, 1/5th throttle tube and fox twin clicker rear shock will bring mine up a foot on hard take off. Gets scary that I don't have a steering dampener on mine, so I have to lightly bring it down without a tank slapper.
I did some years ago 3 blocks of a wheelie on a highway till I starved the carb bowls of fuel and took ten minutes to start the b!tch back up again. Remedied that with the F3 fuel pump and harness. She is a Screamer!

 

Well, I definitely don't try to wheelie my F2 - without USD forks, it's just too hard on the fork seals, but there are rare occasions, where I end up with one and go ahead and ride it out a bit, cuz it is fun!
Anyway, I have to fight to keep the front wheel down, so I can't imagine not being able to do it on purpose... maybe you're starting to get down on power? Or maybe it's just psychological, since your crash - maybe something is "subconsciously" holding you back?

By the way, glad you're back on the road!

 

@JNSRacing what do you mean fighting to keep the front wheel down? I want mine off the ground haha! But honestly I really think it might be subconcious like you said. And what a shame bro those mirrors I bought from you they broke on my fall :/ I just ended up throwing mirror caps on lol

 

Yeah, yeah, yeah!! Like I said, it's brutal on the forks and seals on these "more flexible" traditional forks, besides, wheel up in the front means slower lap times!

Anyway, as I mentioned sometimes I'm "in the hooligan mood", and when one catches me out, I pull on up, and ride it out a smidge, but it's just not something I'm trying to do.

Ahh yeah, that's right, I forgot I sold those to you - yeah, that is a shame, they were brand new... what happened anyway, I didn't read anything about you having a crash?

 

That is very true no matter what your weight is. I blew 2 sets of forks seals just hitting the twisties hard in one season, let alone wheelies. My Gsxr inverted fork swap fixed that problem.
