I've wheelied once on purpose, but several times Ive had the front up just so few inches I really didnt notice for a few feet, just launching it, crossing a road. Its pretty torquey & I feel like its almost stout enough to wheelie just slamming the throttle open at about 12 MPH in 1st or even at 15 or so in 2nd. The brake line comes near straight as the front comes up. I NEED a few more hosspowerz!

Hahaha I tried this last night for the hell of it!!! I almost looped it she popped up so hard! Then she came down waaaay hard. I then proceeded to do about 10 more, it was a riot! I was able to ride some for a while, but not too long. Somebody has to get a good pic of  Savage popping a huge whoolie... I'll work on it.

This thing pulls way better clutch wheelies than either of my sport(y) bikes did!

Just got back from a ride with my brother. I got tired of him teasing me about how his GL500 could still outrun the FireLizard, so we pulled out from a stop sign and I was in second doing about 15mph, waited for him to get beside me and I rolled the throttle hard and lifted my front end about half an inch.

Now remember, I have that heavy a$$ Girder front end on it, and I still lifted it.

Well,...
now that that is settled,.. has anyone tried a stoppie?????


Willingly?  No..   The other day though I had to come down hard on the brakes at a stoplight and felt the rear come up a little.   Grey-haired menace in the cross traffic started pulling out before the light was officially green on her side.
