My fave is cresting a hill on the gas, the rear sticks to the tarmac and front keeps climbing...that's what makes MY boy parts happy.

i went out today and took off out of my street road onto the main road, layed into it and it comes up in first and the front end gets awful light in 2nd. clean those carbs son. a good clean set of carbs will give you throttle response that rivals the often blowjobbed efi bikes lol

Yeah, it sputtered so bad I actually started to pull over, felt like i was running on empty, but then it got power so I shot back to my spot, probably looked like an idiot to the people behind me, but most cage drivers dont know anyway. Fuel switch was in the right spot and all, seriously think it's the carbs, if not them, the pump

haha i love pw.

shortbus, you actually get a balance point in a power wheelie? and i crack it at like 9k for a pw in first.... this 6k talk has got me confused.... i can never get a balance point tho, only a long wheelie that, beside my attempts, comes down after hitting a climax

i don't like power wheelies....i mean i never got one up high...but i like the control of the clutch slipping wheelies, and the sounds is just cool, everyone knows the wheelie sound and all heads turn to look like "OMG WHEELIE!!!"...lol...

I did my first real power wheelie the other day, i have always clutched them. i was riding with a friend who pretty much only does power wheelies and he was egging me on to do one, so i closed the throttle and snaped it back open and sure enough my bike did a wheelie, a pretty good one to. much fun, but i am still scared of the whole looping out factor involved with power wheelies.

Sadly, my front tire hasn't gotten above 3-6 inches off the ground. [&o]

Mine hasnt even left the ground yet. I'm too scared. all i can think of is how much it hurt the first time i rode a dirt bike and looped it out. My friend lent me his dads 450F to ride and i looped it out 30 sec after riding it. By the time we got back from riding i looped it 4 times in 2 hours. My pants were ripped open on the *** and it was all bloody. I couldnt even imgine what it would feel like on cement.
