Shafties can't wheelie

[SARGE]

I was reading a thread in in Rant and Rave and there was a comment from someone that shafties cannot wheelie.

bullshit.. there was a picture in one of the bike rags when the M50 just came out.. poised nicely on its rear wheel


and the person posting that has never ridden an old Vmax...they were hard to keep on 2 wheels at the best of times

when i was at colemans.. i took an old shitter GN home every once in awhile.. group of Busa's (bikeshop groupies) were giving me stick about it until i put it mono and rode it down the hill..

hell.. even scooters can loft the front if ya ride them right

maybe said person needs to ride a shafty..with some balls

[SARGE]

Hell the rider isn't exactly malnourished either.

just goes to show ya just how much power those damn things have..

I better tell my Yamaha 1979 XS1100 "SHAFT DRIVE"
that it better keep the front wheel on the ground
And that means in second gear too

But it is not intellygent enough to read, so dont it know any better
