I'm with you Greenmon44 - wish I could do those wheel stands.
Last time I tried a wheelie like that I was in high school and I ended up running down the street holding onto the handlebars until I finally had to let go of the bike. Of course, their was a crowd of onlookers. I think that was end of my stunt career.

That stoppie lays waste to the myth that the Buell braking system isn't adequate, right?

Cool pics. Good to know/see the Uly can perform like that with the right rider. Thanks for posting.

How about a short video and posting on YouTube? Then I could convert and download to my iPod and show it around. Any chance of that?

Hats off to the Photographer for the Stoppie picture! No offense of course Sanchez. He must have seen you do that a few times and knew that you are good enough to get that close. Great Pictures.

Been there and done that...

Thanks for the compliments.

I told Sanchez he was nutz for wanting me to stoppie right up to him sitting on the ground!

I am not as confident in the wheelie dept. on the Uly as I was on the firebolt, I could def. get the front wheel higher with a little more practice.

Oh yeah, only one foot on the rear peg, the other was covering the rear brake.

A wise man!!

Hey Sanchez, did you ever post any of the pics you took on Sunday at Buelltoberfest?

I assume that was you with the camera as I made the right turn on 60 after waving at the crowd.

...now I just wish Powers Stuntworx would come up with a crash cage for Uly's. I don't stunt, but it'd be nice offroad....

Nice pics, btw. Now my wife doesn't trust me on the "Buell Bagger", either. LOL.

The Buell bagger is one very capable machine, it stunts, track days, commutes, off road, jumps, and tours. show me another bike you can do all that with confidence on.

It's a Canon 30D. I shot those with a Canon 70-200 f/4 L and a Canon 17-85 f/2.8 L.

Charlie, it's a shame there's no luggage on your bike. That would've made for some hilarious shots. : ) Maybe next time we'll get some shots of you on my bike.
