I never say "One last lap" at the end of a open track session.

I can't wheelie for beans. The only times I can do wheelies is on corner exit even those are pretty rare. I think I tend to stay too low and forward on the tank when accelerating quick. The RC does seem more willing to wheelie though.
Now stoppies and corner carvitist I have bad cases of. I think I may rapidly be approaching a terminal case of racebikeitis soon as well to relieve some of the stress on my license muscles.

I have been struck with corner carvitist.

I have done a couple of first through second gear wheelies, but the last couple of times I got hung up in Neutral and the front end dropped like an anvil.

I always hated dropping the front end like that when I was learning to wheelie. Now, I mostly do 2nd gear clutch wheelies. They are much smoother.

Brian,
I don't know why, but I feel "connected" to that bike in your picture.

If this does not make you want to wheelie, get back in your cage!!

It's midnight here right now, otherwise I would get out there and raise the wheel for props.
