My first wheelie wasn't really intentional. When I go full throttle in first gear,my front endstarts to come up andI end upletting offsince I think it's going toflip on me.Is it possible to flip if I keep the throttle pegged in first? I only weigh about 145, so maybe that's part of the problem.

I doubt it, I dont think you can flip the bike with out using the clutch and revving it hard as hell.
Ive had it at full throttle through first gear on several occasions, and ive never flipped it. The front wheel comes off the ground a little, and the front end feels real light.

Damn winter! I want to learn wheelies!

that guy isn't doing powerwheelies like you're probably thinking. He doesn't rock the throttle to compress the front shocks.

I'd rather have a nut buster then a tank slapper for 1 reason.Tank slappers can make you wreck which scares me
