I don't think you are completely one and comfortable with your bike if you cannot at least perform a small wheelie...what happens when your coming out of a corner and power it out...wheel comes up...you get nervous...into guard rail you go....

wheres that Biaggi video when i need it. Years ago when 2-strokes still ruled, Biaggi brought it up across the finish line and went well beyond the balance point, from the angle it looked like he went beyond vertical, anyone have this, great clip, luckily he saved it, but probably needed forkseals aftertwards.

That's not extreme, that's just Max Biaggi doing his thing after the final lap of the 500cc MotoGP. GOTTA LUV IT!!!

I like watching it and think it was fun to do with cheaper bikes. But now with the price of bikes I just enjoy riding. Paying $9000 then mods I would rather keep the bike out of the repair shop. I have a lot of respect for the guys that stunt but it's not for me anymore.

Poor Ben has a Kat, I dont think you can power those up, its hard enough on my 01 zx6r. Would it be nice to wheelie? Sure.. Am I going to risk dropping the bike trying to learn? Heck no. Sure, I will "play" around and try to power it up, but I take it easy because I really dont want to drop it. I do have an old track bike I hope to play around with this summer to learn, but its really not a big deal if I can't or don't.

It is annoying to get the wheelie gestuer from everybody and their grandmother, and I doubt a single one of them rides. When I do learn I still wont do it at their request, as this only encourages their behavior...
