The actual 41.5 mile wheelie is at the end of the SportBikeHype video, and it takes about 38 minutes. Greg is the guy that made up the little phrase "Blocks? Blocks are for little boys, we do counties in Texas!" lmao

Looks like you better move to another state, hell just come to Canada and you'll be king.

So down in this part of texas you can get about 2 miles on a good day before the calvary moves in because all the homo's are on their cell phones telling that, THERE'S THESE CRAZY GUYS RIDING WHEELIES, THEY GOING TO KILL SOMEONE, HURRY HURRY, SHOOT THEM, lol. Then they move over in front of you and hit the brakes, gotta love that. I hate it down here in BFE, where every cop knows your name.

I've done 7 miles on the fiddy just meandering around back streets
The longest I ever went on the gix that I measured was 1.5 miles on the freeway @ 70mph (granted I only have 2 miles of freeway and it's the only road w/ a speed limit over 45mph in chico HAHAHA)
I think I've gone longer down in sacramento but cops scare the **** out of me and my luck sucks @$$.

I read 40something miles. That's sick!
I got a 1/8 to 1/4 mile. Just started picking the front end up seriously a few weeks ago. Getting the hang of it. I just gotta learn to stand, I hate peeking around the side of the bike.

Right after Joey B went 31.5 miles on the Turner Turnpike... On a stock R6.... He was having to chase the oil light too.
