How far is the longest wheelie you`ve carried on the RR??
« on: January 03, 2006, 07:32:47 AM »
Ok wheelies arent always the same.
First, there are the "Mono" type. A "Mono" consists of the front wheel lifting quickly off the ground and then going back down as soon as it came up. Mono`s are very common among big bikes and newbies 8)
Then there is the "Wheelie" which is at balance point, but, all too often is slammed back to earth after the operator has an "Oh Shit" moment.... :pop:
Third is the "OMG did you see that shiat!!!??" type, controlled, balanced, perfecly placed for maximum skirt lifting effect :P :drool:
How far have you taken a wheelie before?? Pics from the braggers will be appreciated too ::)
Whats your best wheelie ??? :P :pop:

A lot of mono's, and a few  "oh Shits."  The oh shits were fun, they weren't really high, but it was up long enough to go a few feet.

I don't know what is the longest wheelie I have done in terms of distance. 

I did pull a nice "power wheelie" accelerating from 100MPH  to "an undiscolsed rate of speed" on my '05 GSXR 750.  Basically, I shifted down three gears and gave her full throttle.  I moved my weight all the way forward to try to keep the front end down, but the Gixxer went HUGE on power and nothing was going to keep the front wheel on the ground.  Jessica the GSXR 750 was stolen and totalled on 12/31/05.  Now I have an RR.

I have found the CBR600RR does not wheelie so easily.  I have run through the first three gears on the back wheel, but I don't think it was more than a 1/2 mile of distance max. 

From 1997 to 2000, I rode a Yamaha XT600 with sick engine mods - full White Bros power up kit, 11:1 compression, 5 angle valve job, custom porting, custom jetting, etc.  That bike could wheelie like nothing else I have ridden.  Any speed, any rpms, any time, just open the throttle and the front wheel was up in a snap.  It probably spent twice as much time on the back wheel than the front.  Many of those wheelies were with my wife on the back.  For that reason, we won't say much more about that period.   Hey, it was the 90s lots of people were making bad decisions . . . let it go, man! 

I have seen a lot of riders using the rear pegs or kneeling on the seat to wheelie.  While I respect the skills involved, it looks well . . . lame.  I am much more impressed by riders that shifting through the gears on the rear wheel.  IMO, That looks friggin' awesome. 

In the 1970s there was a TV show called "That's Incredible".  On that show a dude rode a wheelie out of his garage and all over LA basically until he ran out of gas.  I mean all over, side walks, pedestrian bridges, stairs, you name it.   The guy was the world record holder for wheelie distance.  It was a Kawasaki dirt bike that he rode, I remember the green.  After I saw that I realized that there was no way to be best at wheelies. 

I still like blasting a few gears on the back tire when I am in the mood.  Nothing to prove, just a damn good time!

Cherry as in mint or as in cherry red. And if cherry red, wine cherry, wild cherry, black cherry, or mint cherry? Actually do you have some mint tires in minty green, or mint & chip?  ;D
