Wheelie Survey??????

Hey all, I'm doin a project for a class and I need some info from my fellow stuntin brothas and sistas. My professor doesnt think that there is a market for a training wheelie bar, but Im sure a bunch of you know that some already exist. I wanna prove teh ol' prof wrong, so here is my question....

If you were just beginning to stunt on bikes and you didnt wanna wreck yur brand new GSXR 750, or yurself for that matter; WOULD YOU BE INTERESTED IN LEARNING WITH THE HELP OF A TRAINING WHEELEI BAR (like the ones they use at wheelie trainign clinics)?

I didnt learn with one, but im sure there are people out there that would...

Anyway, Id appreciate the feedback, THANKS!

Re: Wheelie Survey??????

i dont think i'd use one. if you hit that ****er to hard it will make you get all shaky and stuff. i learned the hard way without any wrecks or anything so why not just practice and take it smooth.

Re: Wheelie Survey??????

if you dont have enough control of the bike to learn them without a wheelie bar, then you shouldnt be trying to learn them. period.

Re: Wheelie Survey??????

scares, bumps, close calls there all part of learing and i feel that if you use a wheelie bar then your A. not getting the real felling and B. your not really sure were that point of balance you will also not know were that point of no return is its not just a matter of slaping on a bar and ripping the gas all you guys know what im talking about its the hole feeling........SO no i would not have used one and i would not use one now .. also i would not tell anyone to use them ....... F that
