    You'd think so (I used to) but it's more freaky cause I feel like it's more easy to flip the thing.

    On sports bike, I feel more confident. Easiest bike to wheelie that I have found are 1000cc sports bikes like the R1 or 954. No clutch, just wack it open and hold it up there, as easy as that cause of all that power!

    Fuck yea! Primal instincts mate!

    Just make sure you don't stuff it up. Sometimes it's good even if you stuff it up if the chick is nice and caring enough to come to your aid

    hey Quazzie, yeah mate Showing off is what its about, however when it fucks up, its normally pretty embarrasing, and bugger me people seem to rememeber,for a long time, don't know how to search or do links or that sorta shit, but somewhere in here (KB) is a story about me out at woodhill, were I made a complete dick of myself, I was trying to copy the rider skills of John Nic of Kiwi rider mag, I had watched John many times ride his demo bikes on to the back of the trailer with out the need of a ramp...... If someone can find a link thingy or the post , I a'm sure you would enjoy it Quazzie, if not, next time were on a ride I'll tell you about it.

    hhhhmmmmm, Saturday is a bit short notice, ill be out riding with my old man on Saturday, and might pop in to the track...... also no leathers

    I spent all day today practicing wheelies on the CT110, best wheelie i did lasted 10 metres, just getting used to the balance point.... Shat myself a few time when i hit 11 oclock but my problem at the moment is i get to the balance point and roll the throttle off too much resulting in the wheel dropping

    My rolling stoppies need HEAPS of work, and havnt done wheelies on the RG in ages

    Sweet!! See ya in the afternoon then TS! (if it's fine, if not what time are you starting your road ride?)

    LB, I will head out in the van. I always try to get there at about 10 but somehow when I get there it's always 11. This time I'll be putting my very best efforts to be there at 10-10.15. The track will be opening at 10:30.

    Dunno what the knobblies are gunna handle like in the wet but yea, it'll be a great ride anyway!!

    Being the super cool guy FF is, he is going to put the weather report and track condiotions in here tomorrow morning. So I'll just check in here and we can decide what to do then.
