Home of the First Wheelie
Where did you see your first wheelie, before you were part of this game?
I watched a guy rock one out on the interstate along side of us and remember my old man freaking out at him and swearing at him about how he was going to kill some one and I was in the back laughing my *** off thinking how cool it would be

I remember in the mid 90's, (I woulda been about 10) haning out at the local motorcycle spot, seeing somone roll by a power wheelie, needless to say i was hooked at that point.

well, i there was a dude who lives down the raod from me who's got a gixxer 1K....he did power wheelies for us sometimes.
but i'd have to say the first "real" wheelie i ever saw was a triple extreme video from 02 called "practice nite in fort lauderdale" or something like that

Re: Home of the First Wheelie
first wheelie was dirtbikes, my cuz used to ride all the time, first time I rode I was around 11 and poped the clutch and brung it right up lol, then he ended up destorying the bike, but first big bike wheelie I was playing ball at the courts in my town when I was around 13 and a crew of about 15 rode through doing stand ups, wished I would have been able to get into it then, but I had to wait 11 years later lol, but better late then never hehe

Re: Home of the First Wheelie
First wheelie I saw was a vid of myself in 97 on a 94 f2. I rode dirtbike till I was 16 then I got a streetbike and figured I could wheelie it like my dirtbike. Then in 98 I saw starboys at bike week and was hooked for a bit on wheelies.

Re: Home of the First Wheelie
I don't remember, I think I've been scarred by post traumatic stress from several things and can't remember any specific things in my life.
The first one I remember was a 2nd gear standup on a 600rr it was sick he rode it completely balanced with brake control for a mile.

Re: Home of the First Wheelie
When I first made some friends that rode, the oldest guy in the team did a BP wheelie for miles.. (well kilometers over here ) I was shocked, and hooked. He died though in a non stunting accident by some fvckstain in a van turing left in front of him. RIP TIK8S... It's nice to remember the good times though.
