Talking just bought a new goldwing

Hey guys..... I was wondering if you could give me some pointers of how to pull good wheelies on a 2002 honda goldwing. I just bought it a week ago and i'm really excited to go stunting.

Umm for some odd reason I don't think stunting is in your future.

I have see a picture, in the european mag Super Bike, of a guy 12'n on a goldwing. So maybe you have hope.

Redline the motor

Let the clutch out

And hold on hoping you dont break some thing

Just chop the throttle in first gear. And if you can, have a extra weight on the rear.

After you get wheelies down, you can always work on doing rolling burnouts

My buddy is a saleman for Honda and he had a Goldwong for the week-end once . We laugh at him like crazy until we drove it . That thing has alot of power and will wheelie very easily

I tried to pull wheelies today in the goldwing and got like 2 inches off the ground..... i was soooo stoked. I'm thinking i should stop while i'm ahead because i don't really want to get hurt..... maybe i'll try to go for about 5 inches.

I never thought a goldwing could do wheelies like that. Actually pretty impressed. Hey starboyneil we should meet up sometime so I can see it since we both live in Columbus.
