cuz your a ***** haha j/k j/k ..now when i tell u this im not being a ******* or a smart ***..... its probly becuz your scared a lil so u tend to lean tords your break just in case u go back to far so when u do that it only takes a lil weight and it will do it..so to fix that u can buy a hand brake so u can leave your two feet on your reg pegs..and can control it with your fingers...my theory try it out let me know bro...good luck

Yeah thats what a few other people said but it seems just a bit more then that. out here in west texas the wind blows fairly hard all the time. if i ride with the cross wind blowing on right side i can ride them perfect lol kinda weird. Im ******* tired of it though!

Re: Question please

Maybe because of the route you take daily you are wearing the tire down more on one side then the other.... or a tire that is flat in the middle, like one that hasnt been getting leaned over much, is wiggly sometimes in a wheelie but you should be able to counter balance, maybe your not realizing how close to 12 you can get and still ride a wheelie safely? pretty hard to counter balance a speed wheelie that isnt brought up super high.

Re: Question please

lock your left leg. chances are its not locked so most of your weight is pushing down on the right side. besides that practice practice practice - thats the only thing that will improve your wheelies
