Re: my second day trying wheelies on a big bike

gecelica1 great video I love it when someone posts video's of their first days on a big bike. I havnt got mine yet so I have a few questions....

1. How long you been riding any kind of motorcyle?
2. Does the 50 REALLY help out?
3. Are you on stock gearing on the big bike?
4. Are you clutching up or just throttling it up?

Thanks bro!!!

The only one I can answer.

2. YES....worth every penny.......

take your first falls learning brake instinct & control on the 50, that way it hurts your ego worse than your body.

The first time I brought a wheelie behind the BP on the big bike my foot automatically started pressing without thinking.

Plus, they're fun as ****!!!!!!!

i have had a total of maybe 2 years worth of normal riding but i have never really tried to wheelie a big bike. I bought the fiddy last august and pretty much rocked it

like i said i could never ride a wheelie before the fiddy now i can. So yes it helped me

Stock gearing.....If a 40 tooth is stock on a 636

I am clucthing it up at as slow as i can go without falling over..

Re: my second day trying wheelies on a big bike

too bad fiddys are illegal..
our police are real ****ing bastards.. if they catch you; your fiddy 's gone + a big fine..
However I've already been caught about 2 times.. both times by police on motorcycles.. respect for them..

* they already got some street legal thumpstars 50 cc & 125 cc but they're ugly as hell & are quite expensive
