The Wheelie

[Squiggles]

I have a sneaking suspicion that its not possible on my rgv.....would i be correct?

[Hitcher]

Anything can be wheelied (unless, of course, it has a shaft drive).

[HDTboy]

Possible, yes. A good idea, probably not

[bugjuice]

hell, even I can wheelie an RGV.. Just roll on a bit in first, then acclerate hard and give it a tug. If ya really want, slip the clutch slightly, but don't go too over board. My first decent wheelies was on an RGV250 actually

150s probably won't unless you strain your arse off

[SARGE]

hell man.. i had a GN250 mono 2 weeks ago in front of the shop ( witnesses too..)

I still reckon a shaftie could be wheelied

I can make my VTR250 pop a short abrupt sad mono without too much effort, so your RGV should be able to do better. Rolling, clutch in a bit, revs, clutch out rapidly, WEEEEEEE!!!. Be careful, find a big empty carpark with a surface free of gravel and perhaps a friend to pull the bike off you when/if you drop it.

I could only just pop the front up on the FXR with a heavy backpack. Stoppies were piss easy and a lot of fun on it. Yet to try on the ZXR but will undoubtably attempt them later on. I would think that wheeling an RGV250 would be easy conidering the HP they put out and their low weight.

It should wheelie off the throttle in 1st, if not then you may have a restricted horsepower model or a stuffed motor. In that case just bounce or clutch it up, both will work.

My mate wheelies his Moto Guzzi V11 Sport every chance he get's and thats a shaft drive.

...the poor thing....

Clearly cheap special effects. jrandom once told me that shaft-driven motorcycles couldn't be wheelied. Therefore this must be true...

[onearmedbandit]

I remember jrandom saying that, 'twas a good laugh.

A shaftee can be wheelied I usta do 'em on a VF750 sabre,about 10' long and 300kg or so,but she'd do it.
RGV's do 'em too,did one the day before yesterday on my workmates one.....
