WHEELIE

[globalvtec]

Hey guys..anyone of u ever wheelie using ur s4??is it possible?i mean wheelie for a distance..wld appreciate if u can share ur knowledge/skills.

[Jibet]

s4 not dat sure..U gotta ask goodfella..he wheelie using rxz b4..maybe he tried on s4 maybe not..

[Manzz]

I wheelie on wave before counted or not?.. hehheh

 

Anywayz I saw one instructor did a wheelie on the spec 1 over at SSDC before.. quite a short distance though. Abt 12 to 15 metres...

[IceZ]

s4 is quite hard to do...

leane ur body abit further to handlebar,hold ur clutch(fully),keep rev n close ur trottle,rev ur rpm above 8k(hold it right there),den throw ur clutch,if ur front wheel start to leave the ground,rev slightly more,den u feel like flying,use ur trottle to control the balance....try shift to 2nd gear if u cant control the distance wif 1st gear(if too slow the bike were land)well diff ppl gt diff way to wheelie.

 

but plz take note:

if u wanna try..make sure tat

theres no driver/rider around u(to prevent accident)

beware of tp(suspend)

do not pillion(consider bout others)

hi guys, jus a note tho, wheelies can be damaging to ur engine too. here's an extract found in the main forum under bike n bytes:

 

"Engine etiquette

The way you treat your engine, from cold start to switching off hot and ticking, has a huge effect on its life and performance...

 

Don't get too good at wheelies

Bikes are designed with two whees, so if you choose to u se just one, you're outside the engine's design parameters. On most bikes, a lengthy wheelie will drain all the oil to the back of the crankcase, and away from the oil pick-up pipe, which can strave the bearings. Early Nineties Yamaha EXUPs and YZFs are particularly prone to this. On some bikes (notably Ducatis) you might even end up with most of the oil spat back out through the crankcase breather and into the airbox. So the better you get at them, the more damage you're likely to be doing to your engine.

 

One last thing

Everyone does it, and no-one knows why: that last blip of the throttle before you turn the engine off. If you have a Scott Squirrel two-stroke it might help clear the plugs, but for the rest of us it has the unhappy consequence of dumping a large shot neat fuel down the bores, washing the oil away. That means extra wear when your start up or corrosion if you leave it standing for too long. So don't do it."

 

call me humji if u wan, but i think personally, i would rather let my bike live longer and avoid costly damage repairs. cant afford lah... den if fall worse, wait break bone no need ride for months + hospital bills + repair = :cry: unless can rent driving centre those lousy bikes practise, den i dun mind! haha...

True but for some ppl, wheelie is a skill. So y not once in a while show ur skill to others? Dun be so selfish la.

you can do it!!!

[samuels1984]

its pretty simple in cb400, it lifts off in medium rev, i do it in phantom ta150.. abt 100 meter long wheelies, when i tried cb400 of my friends, its very simple and stable during lift off. ive planed to upgrade my license to 2a and get a cb400, just for stunts

[Blahhh]
