I have thought about doing the back sprocket adjustment but I also like doing first gear wheelies too. And I am afraid if I did that it would tac up to fast. Also I don't go to the balancing point. That is when you loop it. I do have a wife and kids I have to think about.

It's actually a lot safer to wheelie at the balancing point. Once you hit it, the bike wants to stay there and it is much easier to control. And once you learn the balance point, you won't have to be doing 75mph on the freeway to wheelie. You can go to a parking lot, with no traffic and wheelie all day long. Stunting in traffic makes you a "squid" in the eyes of the sport bike world. You gotta take the stunting off the streets, or at least on lesser travelled roads. If you have guys to ride with, find a nice spot out of town on a road that hardly anyone uses. Put a guy with a cell phone/CB at one end and another guy with the same on the other end. That way, if a car does come by, they can call ahead and tell yall to lay low for while until the car passes. We did the same thing in high school for car races. I am onl 23, but I gave up my freeway stunting years ago already. It's too dangerous for my blood. Either way, I suggest you try out the sprocket changes. They can make a big difference in the bike and can be a lot of fun. Plus, they are easy to change, so if you don't like, you can go back to the originals. Just my 2 cents though....

actually, 1st gear is very twitchy, so you're better off doing 2nd gear wheelies.

and gong to the balance point won't make you loop it. going too far once you get to the balance point will though.

i know you have a wife and kids. this is why you wear full leathers, full face helmet, gloves, and sturdy boots when you go out riding and pulling wheelies, RIGHT CURLING?

Yeah, that and I hope you don't frequent any gixxer boards. All those squids talk about is doing 125mph endos wearing shorts and t-shirts with their skirt clad girlfriends on the back. I don't know what it is about those gixxer guys, but 95% of the ones I know are clueless fucks that don't have a clue.

What a rush. I shift to second slow down to 45mph on the freeway(this is the dangerous part) then pull in the clutch rev up to about 12k then slide my butt back againt the back seat then pop the and I am UP. I can ride it up to about 14k before I gently put it back down around 80mph I think. The dudes in cars give me the thumbs up and goodlooking chicks catch up to me smiling shaking their heads like I am crazy but they like it type looks. Man it is rush. Like Ferris Beuller says with me changing it up a bit, "if you got the means and the balls, you should buy a gsxr and start popping wheelies on the freeway...it is SO CHOICE!!!"

Hey Curling, I know you aren't a big fan of us non-christians, but when you die on your sport bike can I have your Chopper?

Cheers,
Scotsman

or he could go +3 on the rear sprocket and it'll pull up a hell of a lot easier. i went +3 on my F4 and the front tire will graze the ground if i'm launching hard and don't have all my weight up front.

i'll say this, the thing that's nice about a smaller bike is you don't have to worry as much about accidental wheelies. of course, accidental wheelies don't usually happen to experienced riders as they know smooth throttle control, but it does happen to the best of them. it's mostly the new riders that have some idiocy ingrained into their heads that a 1000 is safer than a 600. yes, it's true, a 600 comes out of the box practically ready to go to the track and they need to be respected. that warning is given out a lot to new riders as a lot of them want to start on a 600 because they think it's "safer" than a larger bike. then some dumbass tells them a 600 is a track bike in street trim out of the box and a liter class bike with more power yet cuts turns like a 600 is safer. i swear, those idiots should be shot. (don't get me wrong gab, i'm not bashing you, i'm just making a general statement.)

i want a liter class twin for my next bike. i like having more power in the low and mid rpms instead of having to rev up to 9K to hit my torque peak. the Honda RC51 is a pussy out of the box and needs aftermarket parts right away, and Italian bikes are high maintenance. i think Suzuki stopped making the TL1000, which would suck if they did. i'd rather have a TL than any of the others.

The homo's dubbed as the "Streetfighters" (from St. Louis, and they have all kinds of DVD's...so Curling you should pick them up) bike of choice for stand up's is the TL 1000, just because of the balance the big bike has....although my buddy has an RC51 and he does just fine with that.
