cool, not good idea puttin names and where they do it tho is it ?!

[Northern ANdy]

I need a smaller front sprocket my bike seems to be so disinclined to lift its unreal

[RedexRobB]

Yeah i thought that was a tad silly putting ya ame on the vid, you may as well go into the local police station and own up

Mines pretty crap at wheelying, I can get it to come up about a foot but there not enough in the motor to keep it going

[Dubstar]

think its all balance over power. mate use to be able to wheelie his ped and cant say they got power !

[RedexRobB]

They dont have much weight either

[rene]

its not power to weight that gets it up, its all about balance, i've seen people do excerlent wheelys on both zxr's and vfr's its jsut pratice!

[ancozxr]

use an 14 frond sprocket from the 15 stock, and u make wheelie's for fun.

I have in mine ZX and is really cool, but u have to change gears sooner in drive.

vfr's r piss easy to wheelie. i had an rvf which uses the same motor, they have so much low down torque, anyone can wheelie them

zxr's r tricky, but then again, if the trick to wheelies is balance over power then i have been doing them wrong

well, i can't actually wheelie (more than a couple of inches), but i'd say it's a mix of both.

if you've got a very powerful bike, then you would be wheelying on the throttle, and the power (or more accurately the torque) will be enough to keep the front wheel at almost any height.

if you haven't got the power, you'll need to clutch it from high revs, and try and use that to get to a steep enough angle that the power is enough to stop it coming down - at which point you are probably dangerously close to looping it. you won't be able to hold the front wheel a constant few inches off the ground as you can on a more powerful bike.

if people can wheelie a CBR125 then a zxr will wheelie fine! its all about balance

[RedexRobB]

The problem i found trying to wheelie was getting the bike up there in the first place.

[rene]

you sure its with wheelieing?





...some one had to say it

[RedexRobB]

I was expecting someone to say that funnily enough! Yes i am talking about my bike

[deviant]

only just actually looked at the videos.

bit of a nob really.
