One o' clock wheelie angles.

The sites in French, but there's 6 pages of the forum showing wheelies over the balance point.

Can I say squids on this site? Those silly kids, I know it takes a lot of practice to learn that stuff but how many parts did they and do they replace on their bikes weekly? It would be fun to watch video of that to see how many dropped the bikes. I have seen some highway versions of wheelies gone bad ...ouch! :y24:

Mike, I agree. I had older bikes with no plastic when I used to do wheelies. And, yep, I went down a couple of times doing them.

This is what scramblers are meant for, and old one at that. The price I paid for my bike I try as hard as possible not to inflict any damage to it.

Must be a French wheelie forum. Their avatars are all wheelies.

The only times I have popped wheelies was by accident. Like the time I took B&D's 1050 Speed Trip for a trip. At the time I had a Daytona and to pull off you've gotta give revs. B&D didn't tell me that the Trip definatley doesn't need revs!!!!! Every blinking time you change gears on that bike the front wheel takes off!!! I nearly crapped in my best knickers. I also pooped a wheelie by accident at a road block! I didn't have a licence at the time and was riding in my TT. (had 21kms on the clock) I got such a fright when they pulled me over that I played the "dumb female" role......... then pulled off on the back wheel.

Some people just have no respect for their machines, honestly! :tongue:

You have no respect for your finest underware or your bike do you? "Pooping" a wheelie is just not nice :tongue:

PS BTW the website is Finnish (as in from Finland, not finished)
