ZX10R anti wheelie question

[Crasherfromwayback]

No actually not one. got any videos of your signature crashing?

Sure have...

Tut, tut. We all know this will end in tears.

The bigger question here is why would you need to use the clutch to wheelie a modern 1000cc (or 600 for that matter) in FIRST gear? Am I missing something? Have I slipped into an alternate universe where sports bike have 30hp? Oh bugger, it's the 1950s again. Must be a delayed Y2K event.

The point is to do wheelies s l o w e r

[cowboyz]

its 3 mins into it.. pay attention.

a zx10r is not a 600 .. forget about the clutch. esp in first. that just seems nasty.

Yeah nasty and fun I have clutched slow wheelies in 1st on a 06 1000RR an it was exactly like a 600. So I guess you forget about the clutch in 1st Ill carry on peace
I just want to know if its possible on these new fan dangle electronic gizmode bikes
can you not see the appeal of doing a slow wheelie at 50km/h in first rather than powering up in 1st and doing 100 before you know it ?

My understanding is that the wheelie control is incorporated into the traction control which can be turned off.

So you trying to get a girl huh?

She'll fall off the back.

She'll fall off the back.

And then all bikers will get a bad rep, I know two chicks who are terrified of motorcycles because their friend broke both legs after falling off cos some dude was trying to show off at about 30kmhr in a straight line. Not sure what you guys reckon, but it sounds to me like the muppet was trying to do a wheelie (probly with the clutch), fucked it up, and ended up hitting a tree at around 70kmhr.

Replace the "she" with a "he", and this is the result (which I know is a repost).

thank fuck for that!!!! didnt take long. should of just asked you Thanks bassmatt and death

I am sincerely sorry if my riding gives people a bad impression of bikers hhahaa oh wait no Im not

Wheelies are neither big nor clever

and I nearly lost a chick off the back on the front straight puke in 08 she was so scared hahaha oh I love bikes. Id forgotten about that thanks

She still loves bikes probly more than me actually

I don't know the Kawasaki system, but if it's like the BMW one, then it's simply measuring the wheel speeds of front and rear, and when there is a greater than acceptable difference it cuts in. Spinning up the rear wheel and pulling a wheelie is effectively the same thing to the computer, the rear is spinning faster than the front.

As Death says, if traction control is switchable, turn off and away you go.
