what is your longest wheelie?
#3
almost three miles-standup- on the highway, I could go longer if my arms didnt kill me. they cant be those gay mach 5 power wheelies either, I say that is kinda cheating because if you are going 120 mph, you are going to go a longer distance faster. if you are going 50-60mph, you dont get as much distance. here is a little scenario. say I am wheelying at 55mph for say, 2 minutes. now say I am wheelying at 100 mph for 2 minutes. I am going to go much farther correct????? the gangster way is to use pure balance. i hold mine at 55 mph and it feels like FOREVER!!!. I say that you should TIME long stand up wheelies, and see who can hang them in the air the LONGEST. That way, it is not only SAFER, but more people see you, and see the skill and control of the bike, thus are fascinated, and dont think we are crazed lunatics trying to kill everyone and ourselves. Joe Brown showed me that like 2 years ago. Thanks Joe!! WHO AGREES OR DISAGREES WITH ME, I wanna hear input------

hmm....i don't know.
i'm pissed though cause i can get them balanced but then i either fall side to side or i'll let out the throttle a little and then i fight the throttle back and forth the rest of the wheelie...it really agravates me.
any help? i don't want to have to stop and turn my idle up every time i want to do a wheelie.

5 Milez once down the freeway at 2am with my bud beside me watching. Around the 80 Mph mark...
I have never tried it again and dont even have the interest to.
I remember my mind sort of wandering off thinking about wierd
shiat cuz I was up there for so long.
Slow is definitely the way to go.

Goddamn 41.5 miles, aint no way in hell I could ever hold on for so long. After the 5 miles I could feel my grip slowly letting go.
41.5 = long wheelie.
