You do realize all the old farts on the site are going to yell at you for being squids? And the young farts will yell at the old farts for being old farts, and the women and mrg will start yelling at us for yelling, and pretty soon you'll have more carnage than you two could ever cause by being squids.

Go figure.

Yo! No lie, I wish I could get down like that.

You can really tell the difference in exhaust between the two machines.

Nope, in this case "gooder" is the correct terminology. :pcplod:

Yep, you got skills. I was always afraid of wheelies myself. Not to say squidly, but like RJK says, when you chose the place and time, I guess it's a calculated risk.

I prefer putting the knees down on a track, though...

Boy I never knew the brotherhood could turn on you this fast. Dizzying, really.

There's NO ONE who will join me in saying:

"You young hooligans are standing up on your motorcycles and endangering wildlife"
"Your pant legs are too short"
"What if there was some road hazard, like a oncoming cement truck"
"You could put an eye out"??????????

In college (i.e. many years ago) I looped my enduro on the street and broke my arm. Been "gun shy" about doing large wheelies since. Hat's off to ya!

Just to help prop up Mark--hopefully you had a good way to know there wasn't traffic coming at you over that last hill? Otherwise--empty remote road, go for it!

Dude, you are really cementing your old fart status with the above.

You need a day at wheelie school! :cool:

I have a child in college. The cement is not only hardened, it is old and crusty with mineral deposits and a dank musty smell.

When I was a kid, I could wheelie a bicycle for blocks. Sometimes, I fell down. If someone would be willing to let me borrow their SV, I would be willing to learn to do it properly on a 400 lb. motorcycle:rofl:
Actually, I can do it, but not for any great distance. I guess I'm skeert (thats right, skeert comes from the same grammer book as gooder!)

I grew up in WV man, I just like to pretend I didn't. You are not going to say anything I haven't heard a million times and flinched at.

I wanna see... I wanna see.... But when I click the link is says "video is private"... What the heck?


Any anybody who is skilled enough to hit a ballance point isnt squidly. Whats squidly is all of the goofy sons of guns who just hit the gas(or clutch it), bring it up for a few feet, have it come right back down, and call it a wheelie. Or the goofy sons of guns who cant control a bike(on a race track, on a wheelie, or on the street in general), calling wheelies squidly.... And that hasnt happened yet in this thread, and I cant even see the video to say see why.... Arggg...
