I had a wheelie good time

**RevHappy** · 07-12-04, 08:16 AM

A buddy of mine is making a video of last weekends ride through some pretty fun twisty "as Jay would say" Fo Shizzle roads.

I've got a clip from the straight away my buddy is chasing me on his R6. I'm on the R1

Wheelie good times

nice bounce up

i gotta work on that... i refuse to clutch it up & wear something out needlessly that costs money to replace... especially if there's a more sensible alternative

Actually once the short clips are done there will be some corner fun to! If its a long and straight road I must wheelie it.........

**Half Squid** · 07-12-04, 03:21 PM

I want my R1 to do that..... We need to discuss what I need to do with the bike Doug!!!

I like the Vid, but enjoy watching while riding behind you live! The vid doesn't do it justice!

**RevHappy** · 07-13-04, 09:12 AM

kham that was 3rd gear into 4th. Slower you go and the higher the gear the more fluid the front comes up.

Ha..... Thats a half Knee slapper.

On a serious note, once this is inspected I will invest in new sprockets, probably 1 down F, 2 up in R ... Not sure I will bother converting to the 520 untill the chain is used up, but It will hopefully have a new owner by that time!

The bike already has a K&N filter, and a high mount Mig, so thats all that will get invested into her after the facelift it's already had!

**Cam_In_IL** · 07-13-04, 09:17 PM

Hmm... so you have a bigger rear sprocket then. I'm stunt-retarded, so how would I go about doing a standup wheelie? Details, man!

I had a wheelie good time
