ok now i mean no harm when i ask this but are all noobs as stupid as the 1 i met this weekend??? We were talking about different things and we started talking sbout wheelies. He has a 2005 gsxr 500....i said all you have to do is hit the back break to get it to come back down if you get scared and that dumba$$ says oh....i hit the front break i guess because its a 500 it will come back easier....my mouth just dropped i didnt know what to say.....someone that stupid shouldnt be riding a bike

 

What the F is a GSXR 500??? Just curious, and for the record, most newbies are futtin dumb!!!! You gotta try to help them to survive till they are not so dumb. Its a resposibility of the strong to help the weak when they can!

 

should have told him he was right

 

Ummm yeah...

Dont talk to people like that anymore.

yeah....

 

some kid was tellin' me about his buddie's stock '02 954 that'd do 200+....I had to fight back the urge to laugh in his face....

 

I re-directed my exhaust so that it would push me back forward like a jet engine pushes a plane. I can not possible loop with all the force from a yosh!!!!!!

 

GS500...wheelies...um, yeah. maybe hes rockin the new handbrake that operates front and rear?

 

I have never heard of a GSXR500... maybe Im not up on the new bikes as I thought I was

LOL at TELE

 

People gotta search the web man..... GS500F, NOT GSXR 500

Anyway, that guy knows his stuff. Hitting the front brake will increase drag and bring him back down. Its all scientific type stuff I can't even try to understand....

I should hook him up with my boy Karate-klutch and they will take over the world..... :YEAH

It makes sense with the wind drag and the aerodynamics of it all... but how effective would that be compared to the rear brake?

 

if i want to come down on a wheelie i just push down on the tank and say "GET DOWN DAMMIT!!!"

works everytime, 70% of the time

 

he's got a point... i do it alll the time.. gs500=gsxr500 like yzf600=r6 fvckin ppl

 

I had a guy at work on an Sv650 tell me he couldn't wheelie his bike because of bald tires...

 

lmao

 

ok, so some people out there are very mis-informed or just not smart.

although one point to mention....when i raced dirt (from age 8 till about 15 ) i learned that stopping the rotating freespinning wheel will have an effect on an airborn bike. i.e.....hitting the rear brake while in the air will tranfer the energy that the wheel is creating to teh swingarm and inturn bring the nose down. the same applies for throttle...if you're ina nose dive gunnning the gas in teh air will create an effective amount of "work" to where the front of the bike will tend to lift or the rear will duck, depending on your point of view

as for teh kid using the front brake ina wheelie...prolly just stupidity, but honestly try it, especially ina coaster...when the front wheel is spinning in a wheelie, grab the front brake with one finger and stop the front wheel....i can feel it's effect and you should be able to also.

 

lol people need to take an IQ test before they are allowed to purchase a bike.

 

yea thanks 4 all the oponions....does tele's bike really have jet force??? lmao

 

Yeah, sure does, problem is all the hot air is blowing me backwards. I need to turn my head around and then it would go forwards.

 

wow i understand it all now

 

Did we all smoke way to much last night or what
