Default Wheelie..oil supply..........

I do a fair amount of wheelies...usually around mid range in the rpms..iv heard wheelieing is bad because the oil drains away from oil pump...is it safe to wheelie once in awhile for say like 30-40 ft..or would this oil starvation lead to bad things....i know it could...ive blow a camshaft b4..not beciase of wheelies but a plugged gallery..

im jus wondering if its safe at all to do a good wheelie here n there?

im probally pick up a 250r this fall...yes it has a training wheel lol..but it beats having a hardtail trike that can only do 70clicks...[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]
