 lol Hence why they fitted the crash bars. Never tried it either, as I do not want to bend me or my bike. Let along bash the life out out my fork springs.

Well....after the NTV the strom was 100 bhp....you just HAVE to try you know?  I have done a few wheelies....welll...mostly hops but 1 or 2 proper ones.....scared the carp out of me when it finally worked So I stopped trying all together....maybe when I get a racer or a proper off-roader (KTM or the likes) I'll try again...but for now two wheels on the ground is good enough  About the guy in the movie: doing a wheelie from standstill by slamming open the throttle isn't the best way to practice....unless you want to do .. well.. what he just did |

What a wally... trying to wheelie from the stop position is never a good idea at the best of times... you don't have balance as soon as you start to move.. your feet are not on the foot rest so you have no brake control..
there is a wheelie school in Hitchin, Hertfordshire that teaches you to wheelie road bikes under controlled conditions....... perhaps he should enroll !!!!
BTW i am no wheelie expert... but been riding bikes offroad since 1981.... first time i rode my cr500... thought i would give it some going onto the track... yeah.. you guessed it.. fell off the back
