Re: wheelies?

you can use the search button free of charge.. but most ppl rock a 2nd gear pick it up at like 45 to 50 and rock your back brake and if you dnt no how to. maybe your not ready for highway wheelies and buy a 50

Re: wheelies?

I dont think 954s have enough horsepower to do wheelies. If you re-torque the carbine jet solnoid and switch your exhaust to "Mach3 Mode," then it should be good to go.

Re: wheelies?

Anytime someone thinks their bike doesn't have enough power, there is a simple test to prove you don't have the skills!


Put the bike in 2nd gear at 50mph, take the bike to red line holding the throttle wide open, let go of the clutch.

Make sure to get it all on film, trust me, you will wheelie, and you will probably even 12 it out! make sure you have a 12 bar so you can do a stunt.

Re: wheelies?

i agree a 954 is not the absolute best bike to learn on but its not the worst. it will definately teach me good throttle control. but so far as far as highway **** im doing just fine.

So you're saying throwing a newbie on a 954 and tellin him to go try and learn highway bp wheelies is a good idea? I wouldn't wanna see one of my friends do that... unless I really didn't like him.
