use protection and learn in a wide open space use your head as for wheelies themselves I have no clue. but be careful and please don't hurt yourself | ||

Use the search button, this has been covered extensively. As for "on demand", I haven't nailed it but sometimes it comes up real easy and sometimes not. It seems to depend on hitting exactly the right RPM's and going off/on the throttle the right way (or just whacking it at just the right time). I wish I could avoid trying but it's just too tempting.  [Insert DaveS post "I never wheelie" here] | ||

What's a wheelie? | ||

Good one Coldwthrrider! Although "I never wheelie" I have heard that if you wind the bike up to about 6-6500(on a 9)in first and then very quickly shift into second, the bike will stand up for you, if you are good, you can then catch 3rd gear and ride up to about 90 or so on the back wheel.

No, if your real good, you don't need to shift! (not that I can) | ||

I can't shift either. | ||

I'm scared to try and shift to 3rd...  | ||

nice lookin exhaust there misato.i note that you have some left body english going on. are you steering, or countering a crosswind, or compensating for an intrinsic gyroscopic effect? i am not smartassing you, honestly curious. later, dean | ||

Awesome pic Misato! The first one I mean... the Glitch edit looks like you're being chased by Rosco from Hazzard County! | ||

It's hard to get over 100 mph in second, that's why you need to shift! Dave | ||
| Misato |
HA, I mean shift into third while on one wheel. | ||
| 99buellx1 |
Balance and you can go forever without needing to shift is what I was saying. I've seen Bill(my tall friend) hold a constant 70mph wheelie for 4 miles. Yes thats right 4 MILES! It was very impressive. (and yes, we got it on tape.) | ||
| Dropnstyle |
4 is good. from one of the riders on our team ive seen 23 miles, and yes its on tape.i can do about 5 on my 929 but still getting used to the xb9r to stretch them out that far | ||

Can you pass cars and change lanes too????CRAZY MAN!!!CRAZY!!!!!Wheelies are run but I really get a kick out of hitting the curves and grinding my knee sliders on the asphault!!!Or better yet Slap some woop -A on some RC51 or GSXR100 or what ever,as we're talking I remind them them about my under powered little Buell. Hope to see you at the Ridge run!!! |
