The bit I can't get is how they do wheelies at speed. I can do corkers from the off, but not lifting it like they do.
I think you've got to really hate your clutch and not worry about bouncing it off the limeter. Not something I'd like to try 8O
Saying that, you could do what I did on the Storm. I re-geared it and then put a really fat bloke on the back. I couldn't accelerate faster than a moped without lifting the wheel and that was at seventy :lol: :lol: :lol:

geriatrics shouldn't be pulling wheelies, that's just wrong. :roll:
You do not have to say anything. But it may harm your defence if you do not mention when posting something which you later rely on in quote. Anything you do say may be ripped to sh*t.
