shit no...its bad enough going from 4 wheels to 2...but one thats just nutz although when shifting at 14,500 rpm that front wheel gets a lil happy and wants to come up
pure noob(been riding for about 8 months) question here but HOW, i mean after i grow some bigger balls. when i shift at high rpms like 14 or so it does feel like it wants to come up but hell by then im already going to fast, or it seems that way. how did you guys learn? what did you do?
I'm a noob at wheelies but I've done them, haven't wrecked ever. I have been riding for a year and half. I've tried doing wheelies on my 92 VFR but OMG! that thing is atleast 500 lbs with a full tank, it only has 80 whp, I've only been able to get it up in first and when the tank is almost empty, and even then it won't stay up even on full throttle.
On the other hand my brother's 93 katana 600 can easily get up, haven't tried in 2nd gear. I think I'm not going to do many wheelies though they are fun. I love going fast in corners.
