standard on the front and 65 on the rear, easy as to do wheelies in second, third, but first is a bit scary and i haven't got the hang of it yet, ( it jumps up so fast is scary ) but when i do get the hang of it i'll be wheeling at walking pace

nothing wrong with not changing gears ( i don't it scares the hell out of me )
i have learnt to get the bike to bp and keep it there and hence dont gather any speed and dont need to change gears ( when i"m on the gsxr i can slow the wheelies down )

Hell yeah, changing gear is NASTY!!!

Walking pace wheelies are brilliant though i would love to be able to do those! I think the slower the better, it takes more skill than clutching it up at 80!

65??? Do you have to get that sort of thing custom made? Looks like a dinner plate with teeth cut into it to me!

yep have to get them custome made, there are a few that make them in aus and can be done in al or steel usually take about a week to get done depending on wheather or not thay got balnks in stock or not.

havent been out to the track to practice latley so progress on the slow wheelies has gone backwards but hopefully start to get out to track more often and make some progress on the VTR.
