What? Let me tell you something,, Here's the truth, I paid cash fo my bike,, I look at it like a safe,, But once it goes down, yeah, might as well do something with it,, cause I ain't buying new plastic,, until I can ride a 1/2miler! Don't get me wrong, I play off the line alot and get it up,, but not on purpose!! My Corbin seat comes in tomorrow!! God I hope it helps!!

why is the whole forum catered toward wheelies? Wheelies are easy and are even more easier with a damper. I dont see how you can crash with a wheelie unless you looped the bike or did not give yourself enough room to stop.
Now, stoppies/endo are every difficult to control. Lets see the poll on that one.

funny how everyone saying they love wheelies and have crashed, they have less than 100 posts...damn noobies...if you are gonna do wheelies all the time and not use your bike for talent, like trackdays, or twistys, go buy a gixxer, wear shorts, look cool...[sm=rant.gif]

i want to learn wheelies, but not on my bike. i got a custom paint job i dont want to mess up. for the dudes with stunt bikes out there, do you care if people learn wheelies on your bikes?? i sure as hell dont want anybody riding my bike at all no matter how good of a rider they are, unless of course they can pay for another paintjob and plastics
