There are probably a lot of online references for popping a wheelie, too. I saw on Super Bikes that Rossi feller went to wheelie school. He seemed pretty intimidated at first. I think I am going to spend my energy getting fast through the turns...that is where I find the joy of being on the bike, like many others, but we all get our kicks in different ways...and that's a good thing!

to whom it may concern,

If you have to think about how you are going to do a wheelie, your best off not doing one at all....

people who own a bike that was made to race and say they are experianced, and do not do wheelies from time to time, are not experianced enough to do a wheelie..

My dad is 53 and he even does them on his H-D!

wheelies are a method of showing other people how good we are at riding our machine (showing off).. thus wheelies must be exicuted at every possible moment.

directions are cool, but its all about technique; so don't worry if it isn't as easy it seems.

x2madf4i:
Im gonna be as safe as possible, im buying some armor to help me protect, you may say its extreme but i do values my self to much, so im gonna take any protection i need and advice....thanks alot for the video, it helps alot

spdrmns:
I admire your dad for doing the wheelies on his H-D....Im not trying to impress anyone i just want to do it for the adreneline, im into that surf of stuff, I haved sky jumped and other exating things, but sky jump was the best thing i've done...i also want to be knowledgable on everyting there is to know on the MC...im also taking mechanic classes to learn more...i jusr not the type to give advice if a havent experinced it, and i want to experince everything on the bike even thou is going o take me a long time...

EULOGY:
i agree with you, so thats why i want to take classes so i'll have someone telling me what im doing wrong...

i appreciate everything ya'll put and om gonna take every advice into consideration.. Im still young so im not in a hurry to learn all this at once, so Im taking it slow...aint that how good riders become good, they had to start at one point...Im just starting
