    If you consider a wheelie a light front end over a bump in the rd at 120 k then... ya have a lot to learn, to lift it up at that speed and hold it at the ballance point till over 200k with a slight side wind (eg) takes a lot of skill, ballance and good judgement...
    cheers DD

    Sure if you qualify it like that, but the statement - 'I don't think chucking a wheelie at 120 on a modern litre bike is a big deal' - I agree with.
    On most of them it's harder to keep the wheel on the ground if you are nailing it.

    Yea agreed, but at least u stand a lesser chance of dying goin to get milk.... vs hooning on one wheel at 200, I dont say hoonin is all bad, im a young hoon myself do wheelies too but always under 100 and always on straight roads with noone around for miles.... aside from the odd turkey.

    My bike runs out of power on the back wheel, so it won't make it over the 100km/h mark... unless I manage to get into third... hmmmmm

    Then I'll cuff him (just like Danno used to do in Hawaii Five-O), kick him in the nads and shoot him in the thigh. Mail me your gun would you?

    PS: I might miss the thigh and get the skull area.
    Must have missed RMs post... or he deleted it since????? Bling earned...
