How far can you wheelie? I can go from 1st to full out. Can anyone here wheelie till they want to put it down.

I can walk a 125 on the rear end until it runs out of gas or I have to make a decent corner. But interestingly enough I can't come close to doing the same on my AF. It's very hard for me to control the throttle at the point of balance. I think there are two techniques generally used to keep the front end up. I use the power to fluctuate between the point of balance and a couple degrees forward of it. Another is to use the brake and keep the front end down from a couple degrees past point of balance and the sweet spot. I just grew up using the throttle so I'm not good at dragging the rear brake. You won't see me practicing much either because I don't really feel like embarrasing myself infront of a bunch of fourstroke riders. "oh look another guy who can't ride a 500 two stroke! Quick somebody go let him ride your 450!!"

X2 on that 125, the '88 500 will do a cowardly low catwalk with no effort for miles on end. BMX til i tuckered out too.

My favorite thing to do on a ditbike! Been known to hang a front wheel for a bit myself.

That's funny, the bike that Paul is on doesn't look like it would have enough power to do a wheelie in the first place! I mean it's only got a 4 cylinder engine!
