the 5-0 caught be yanking a wheelie

and that is fine, and what I like about Adolph is that you are mature enough to accept your actions and have calculated your risks and accepted them with your actions.
I bought my bike to ride, you bought yours to play. Both are fine.
Agian the arguement here is that the premise was ill conceived place to wheelie brings tickets. If the tread wants to go in a stunting direction and the VT simply wanted validation for his action, then the stunting corner would have been a much better place as you will not gather much support around this part of the forum.
Have a good day all.

Granted i can do it for miles on a road, but when it comes to the slow stuff in a parking lot, u need sum real skill, and it would b pretty damn difficult to do it without a 3rd brake and a sprocket. So those that say do it in a parking lot dont know wat theyre talkin bout. I know that i aint even skilled enough to hold a wheelie or even get it at 12 o'clock goin under 20mph. Before sum of you object y we do it on open roads u need to know wat your talkin bout!
A wheelie that is not at balance point is NOT CONTROLLED. It is hard acceleration, plain and simple. Hard acceleration is unsafe, especially when you have only a small patch of tire making contact with the ground. A car can pull out in front of you or make a lane change in a split second. And it takes that whole second just to put your front end down, and by then it's too late.
Ask ANY real stunter where the appropriate place to perform is, and what kind of stunts they do. Then maybe you can set yourself a goal to become better with your bike, and get the dangerous activities away from innocent people. You'll get respect from all directions in that case.

I tell you right now that I have not nor have the desire to do wheelies. I'm not trying to put on some front, there are more mature and less mature people on this site.
I have friends that do them all day long down the road. I have parking lots plenty big enough to go and do that sort of thing, but I perfer to watch. I grew in Florida and most recently lived in Metro Atlanta. I have been around Sport Bikes since my dad brought home a brand new CBR F2 in Jan of 1992.
I have seen first hand what a little over confindence will bring you.
I am very safety minded. If Jason Britton has broken bones many times what makes you think you are safer or better that a pro.
I'm already missnig body parts for not following safety rules. I'm set and have nothing to prove.

Please tell...how bad were you bending the rules?
Are you extremely harsh on people for doing a simple wheelie over the fact that in the past your extremety resulted in an accident?

Well just perhaps out of the 67 members online right now, we might have some that consider this forum a place for information and making friends ect ect ...and not a place to brag about breaking the law, to what is most of the time, hundreds of un registered members reading our boards at any given time ....
and hey ..the thread still lives , it just live here now ...
no biggie
