Default can you wheelie a stock cbr f2 in first gear?

ive been more of a car guy and own a couple dirt bikes but im a newbie when it comes to street bikes. i cant wait to ride it this spring but anyways...

question is, in first gear can i just floor it and will the bike lift up on me if im sitting up right? i know these bikes arnt really that quick but enough to have fun with!

the guy i bought my bike from claims its power is equal to a 750cc and rambles on about it having mild cams and exhaust with a new rebuilt engine etc. i think its kind of B.S. but i guess i dont really know.

i floored my bike in first gear to see what it had (lying as far foward on the bike as possible) and i could feel the bike start to pull up on me around 11k when i let off the throttle. just curious, is that normal for a older 600cc street bike?

If you truly want to know if he has done anything to it, Take it to a Dyno.
I highly doubt without putting thousands, if not more into the motor that it would be near a 750cc.
Did you see any receipts for the work that was done?
If he did it himself do you have receipts for the parts?

If not he most likely thought he gained a HP everytime he parked out fron tof the local coffee shop.

My bet would be it has a sprocket change making (smaller front/larger rear) it have better acceleration.

nope! he just was upset i was only paying a grand for the bike (running good love it!) and he had supposedly put tons and tons of money into it to send it into honda and get a whole new engine/rebuild it forgot what he told me.

if you want to know if it will wheelie, pull in the clutch, get the rpms to about 9-10K and then dump the clutch. :icon_instawheelie:
