dont wheelie with a chick on back untill you are flawless.

its not just you, to worry about, you would have another life behind you.

No doubt. I don't recommend doing wheelies with a girl on the back unless they really really want you to and they wear full gear.

Just know that the bike comes up easier not to mention loops easier with someone on the back!

i do 2 up wheelies with my wife every now and then, she just holds on to my waist like normal, but a little tighter. just remember it comes up a lot easier and the balance point is a lot lower with someone on back


good luck and be careful! cover the rear brake!

Just make sure you have solo wheelies on lock before you attempt it with a passenger. Injuring yourself is one thing but doin it 2up you are responsible for another life also.

i have one arm around my guy and have one hand on the gas tank so i don't fly into him when we come down.
be careful...I have ridden on my bf's bike so often i can tell what he is gonna do b4 he does it, try to get her used to your riding style first if you haven't already.

Be careful bro.....she'll be on the bottom of the pile if you loop.
A dude i know put him and his 929 on top of his girl....she was less than thrilled.

150grl is a decent person
Make sure she holds on tight and has no space between the two of you. A friend of mine and I used to do it best when I sat a little back on the seat but was still locked onto him. If she jerks back when you go up it will throw you of gaurd so just make sure she has a tight grip. I also would put my hands on the tank on the way down so the guys ***** don't get smashed in the tank Be careful!!!

Ditto, just to add as a referance, my old bimmer with 65 HP is hard to willie at all solo, but with someone on the back it will power up at 55 MPH. My f2 comes up without even thinking about it with someone on the back. Go VERY easy the first few times.

One other thing to add that I didn't see mentioned....I am guessing bikes are the same as anything else you wheelie, but I could be wrong....Anyway, they not only will come up easier and quicker, but the balance point will be lower as well.

I'm sure I don't have to say it, but be careful bro.
