    Dont do it!!! Or practice on a ****ty bike with gear. The risks out weigh the cool factor in my mind.

    Plus the fact that it is a Felony... And comes with a large fine, impound of your bike, and some jail time if done on a public road.

    Rduncan what are you talking about? Here in Wisconsin you get disorderly conduct with a motor vehicle for $429 or a display of hp ticket nothing more.

    1st power wheelie
    2nd gear clutch wheelie depends how fast your going if your doing 45-50 I rev it to 6200 and let the clutch out
    2nd gear stand up wheelie Stand up compress the shocks during rebound pull up and accelerate at the same time.

    Once you get good 2nd gear clutch wheelie ride it out and shift to third.

    But I do agree Cover your rear brake and if you have a beater bike use that. If not prepare to rebuild your forks.

    Just go to a drag strip
    You'll do everything you can to keep it down

    Well, here in Florida it is a Felony $1,000 fine for 1st offence, 2nd offence is $2,500 and loss of licence for 1 year. 3rd is $5,000 and permanent loss of licence.
