    One Armed Wheelies
    So this chap from NZ e-mails me looking for a place to host his videos.
    The first one he passes to me shows him doing some one armed wheelies.

    Nothing special you might think.

    Except for the fact that he truly has only one arm!!!!
    He had lost his other arm in a motorcycle accident awhile back.

    I believe his next videos he will pass over will be some of his racing videos.
    You can find the vid here-> http://www.gotcanyons.net/oab.htm

    Gotta love the sport

    Re: One Armed Wheelies
    Great camera work, especially on that opening sequence...

    -------------------------------------------------------------------

    Its hard to tell in the vid.

    -------------------------------------------------------------------

    Re: One Armed Wheelies
    Yea unless you now he has only one arm You really could not tell. He says that what he did was swicth the clutch lever to the other bar and operates it with his thumb. This is how he is able to downshift.

    Might be interseting to see in his racing videos if he shows the operation of shifting.

    -------------------------------------------------------------------

    Re: One Armed Wheelies
    that's about the best place to practice wheelies, anyway...

    -------------------------------------------------------------------

    that is impressive...

    -------------------------------------------------------------------

    very impressive

    ------------------------------------------------------------------

    Re: One Armed Wheelies
    Ahhhhhhhhh???? that was special? did we all watch the same video?

    ------------------------------------------------------------------

    wow good for him, fall off the horse gotta get right back on.

    -------------------------------------------------------------------

    pretty good for one arm.

    ------------------------------------------------------------------

    nice

    ------------------------------------------------------------------

    Impressive. there use to be a guy around here that lost an arm in a motorcycle accident and still drag raced down on 11th street. he rode wheelies and shit too just not as good as this guy. that road is pretty sweet for practicing wheelies on

    -----------------------------------------------------------------

    It would be REALLY good if he lost the other arm .....

    Good stuff there OAB, great clip. Now if I could just learn to do them like that with 2 hands I would be pretty impressed, you are a demi-god.

    You could tell them that the cameraman has only the use of one arm too!! Hell, tell 'em we're all pretty 'armless down 'ere! (They should send some chicks as an advance party...)
    They shall not grow old as we that are left grow old.
    Age shall not weary them nor the years condemn.
    At the going down of the sun and in the evening,

    Weird that. Just recently I was wondering how you (OAB) operated the clutch. A bit of footage would be very interesting!
