And I was bringing it down by choice with the rear brake. The wheelie in the video was a below average wheelie for me, I just wasnt doing very well that morning.
    Wow, so u pulled a 200 metre wheel stand in 1st gear going 80kmph?? You must have had it up near 12 oclock for that and holding the balance point, i've only seen one or two guys do that but it takes some skill. I'll have to see you do that to believe it...soon mate.

    Just take it a step at a time man, i'd hate to see you bin it as a result of stunting, and it sounds like you're taking some huge risks. Just some friendly advice, take it or leave it.

    NIce Tex, you were doing some pretty good wheelies at present! Gareth got a vid of my wheelie and a few stoppies, dont suppose you have those do you?
    Keep the practising man!
    Nail your colours to the mast that all may look upon them and know who you are.
    It takes a big man to cry...and an even bigger man to laugh at that man.

    Well done Tex
    To every man upon this earth
    Death cometh sooner or late
    And how can a man die better
    Than facing fearful odds
    For the ashes of his fathers
    And the temples of his Gods
