Default 1st Wheelie

Earlier some acura wanted to race from a light, so when the light turned green I ripped the throttle and out of no where; completely unprepared my front wheel came way off the ground, I kinda freakd out but kept it going some how when I finally came down I shifted to 2nd and dusted the acura. it was quite the rush. Im really thankful for not coming off to much. Thank you God.

Haha I remember when I did this on my first bike. Though its probably a lot lighter. It was a Suzuki drz400. I had no idea what to do so I just held the throttle until I realized I was in control and eased off gently. Safe to say I took it easy on the rest of the way home. Ever since ... Both wheels have stayed down.

My 954 comes up so fast in first gear that if I'm not ready for it the tank punches me in the stomach, haha. My first accidental wheelie was actually at 60 mph. As soon as it hit 8000 rpm in 2nd gear, she came up fast!
