Default Does the Yamaha Raptor and the New YZF 450 ride wheelies well??

I used to have a yamaha blaster and rode mad wheelies with that. I also rode a 400ex and i know they do good wheelies. They just stay right up so easily. Anyways i was wondering if the Raptor and the YZF 450 can stay up so i can ride mad wheelies once again down the road.

The Raptor is a sweet wheelie machine... We will have to wait to see about the 450 though!

The raptor is hard to stop from doing wheelies. It wants to lift the front end up in every gear. You just got to be careful on it though. All you have to do is tap the gas, you don't have to lean back or pull up on the bars for it to pull the front wheels up.
