Wait til the electronics malfunction, you go to pull a wheelie, it doesn't apply the brake for you, you loop the bike, then count the number of flips you do down the highway at 80mph... the theory for it is there, but computers aren't failsafe

Yes, there is and it was discussed in the new Super Streetbike Magazine in the Starboyz wheelie school article. They say that it is not a preferred method because it can slam you back on the ground, and it stops the fuel, it doesn't use the brake.

There is one that use the rear brake to keep you from going over. It was actually displayed at the Lone Star Biker Bash in Texas in September. You can manually adjust the settings so that you can go higher and higher in a wheelie and your own pace. There are a couple of wheelie schools that use this method and it seems to work great for beginning riders who want to learn the safe way instead of taking the chance of wrecking the bike.

Here is the link of the school that was at the LSBB. Check it out.

thanks guys for all the help, i mean thats all i was asking for. now if there is some smart a$$ comments to be made some of them could be made after something with sense. i am new to this and want all the help i can get. where i am at there is no one around to teach or i can get pointers from i am not in florida anymore i am in the bahamas an there isnt anyone that i know who can help so i rely on mostly what i get from here but i notice now
that the wheelie questions dont even get answered anymore i know it has been asked alot but it will be the most popular one because anyone who has a sport bike and share the love for riding want to do it. its give them a lil more feel like being in control of the bike they are riding

I could make you one that uses levers in about an hour, but you have to send me your bike because I'd have to bolt some stuff to the swingarm, rearset, and possibly the frame. It would actually be real easy to do.
