You have really big feet... | ||
| Froggy |
Is that a banana suit or are you just happy to wheelie? I need to show you how its done  Damn traffic getting in the way | ||
| Jraice |
Froggy you have the softer suspension and luggage helping though  . Jk but yeah... Im guessing those were all power wheelies? | ||
| Froggy |
I clutched that one. Was doing about 40mph, backed off a bit, squeezed the clutch, kicked down to second, revved and dumped. I was at like 4000ft, the thin air required more effort and it was harder to keep up, hence the little bit of seesawing. At sea level where I live the same wheelie would of been like 5th gear just twisting the throttle and then hoping it dosen't loop I can do the same on my SS, which happens to lack the La-z-boy suspension and top case full of lead | ||
| Hendro |
yeah power wheelies...still learning, actually just started doing them that day. | ||
| U4euh |
you have some nice video's hiding in there also!!!! | ||
| Ochoa0042 |
you chop too much of the throttle | ||
| Hendro |
^^^chop too much...meaning just before i wheelie it? I think I know what your saying. I'm getting it tuned by Mike soon so hopefully I wont have to worry about that lol. I was "chopping" so it wouldn't bog out...any tips? | ||
| Froggy |
Tuning ain't gonna help if you don't know what you are doing. I am glad that you were practicing in a parking lot. You will get a feel for it over time. | ||

I havent laughed so hard in a long time great vid | ||

Here is a tip if you really want to stunt. Go outside right now and kick your bike over hard then put your gear on and go for it | ||
| Hendro |
I don't want to stunt, just have a little fun on takeoff. Is that too much to ask for.  If I ever do want to get into stunting it won't be on my Rio(that's what I named her). I have an old GS500 laying around that would be perfect with a little gear modding... | ||
| Froggy |
To stunt a GS500 you will need a sprocket bigger than the rear tire, even then it will be a bitch. It would be easier to hoist the front from a fork lift. | ||
| Hendro |
Haha ^^^ I know it will need to be bigger, but I have the smaller front sprocket also, and the rear can be bought for around 80. | ||

Looks like Jersey is the new Banana Republic | ||
| Zatco81 |
Glad to see you kept the rubber side down...with no gear on you could have ended up a banana split. Oh my god, can't believe I said that...but somebody had to...right...right? | ||
| Firebolt32 |
Andy...Do you put those in your tank to stay "up" longer and harder? I'm always hesitant to wheelie the bolt. I'd be pissed if I dropped her... | ||
| Andymnelson |
lol I'm glad someone caught it :-p he was looking for tips on getting it up... | ||

When I posted that pic, I had just watched this episode of Two and a Half Men, and I couldn't resist! |
