I figure, if you weren't exceeding the speed limit, the bike is under full "control" while doing the wheelie, nice and straight and "calm", and then the wheelie set down nice and gentle-like, would that necessarily, always be ticket material? Is there specific motor vehicle code against em? For me, there's no way I'm wheelie'n the C-14, or even a tricycle with pedals, but pretty amazin' what some doods do. Makes ya wonder how many times they hadda CRASH to learn that stuff.
Nah i didnt do wheelies on that neither did my friend, he bought it like but with 4000mi thats too soon to need fork seals.
I can't even wheelie on my freaking pedal bike. :mope:
Its presumed taking a wheel off the ground is NOT being in control; i believe they'll get ya with reckless operation or something like that. Bike doesn't quite steer so well w/ front wheel in the air. Isn't it supposed to be automatic arrest in MA?Quote:

BIKES ARE DANGEROUS!!!!
I'm too afraid to drop the clutch..I'll get it all set but then I will end up slowly letting out the clutch...I don't wanna drop my baby :mecry:
If you dump the clutch just make sure you are covering the rear brake..Or your in for a lil surprise
My bike won't power wheelie because it is lowered so I would have to dump it but knowing me I'd go flying backwards so I think I'm just going to keep both wheels on the ground!

blah come on, just get the seat re done. Im around 5'7 or so and i just lean to the side, hell even when pushing the bike back into my garage ill do it with one leg haha. Looks funny i know.
Believe me I'd rather not have it lowered but it would be impossible for me to move it when it was stopped...I have a hard enough time doing it with it being lowered still
