    Heh, yea that reminds me of my first bike... 86 zx10, that fucker weighed 592 dry and I was like 130 at the time. Definitely needed to hop off that thing to back it up even the slightest hill (or get the push assist).

    The only thing thats not convienient and short person friendly about the gsxr is they made the kickstand too far back so its harder to turn around.

    Re: Why not to do wheelies

    i've never done a wheelie and i have a bike that they apparently teach people to do wheelies on (bandit 1200). i'm just too afraid to drop my bike. if i dropped it i'd be sad

    anyone want to give me a dirt bike?

    Think about this for a second. If god didn't want us to do wheelies, then why did he invent gravity??

    Re: Why not to do wheelies

    Are you talking about the center of gravity of your bike of when you are pulling a wheelie? Or just that gravity that pulls you toward the tarmac when that thing tips over? LOL
