Little kids can do wheelies on bicycles for a city block. Big Deal!! Showoffmanship

 

Ok, but i dont see little kids pulling wheelies in 4th gear going 40mph. Showoffmanship or skill?

 

I ran just fronts on mine for a while, it looks pretty good actually, kinda has a "raked" look....

 

I prefer 5th gear wheelies at 55 or 60 MPH

Watch the "parachute" effect of the front fenders at those speeds though! Especially in a headwind... Been there done that, pretty spooky the first time you get an unexpected lift. (us old 3-wheeler rider's didn't have to deal with that problem on our old rides).

Any of you contemplating TCS shocks, prepare for your 400 to lose it's wheelie king status. On my stock shocks, I could ride wheelies thru all five gears and hold them as long as I liked (or until I ran out of room), and pull it up at will. Now the balance point is much more narrow, and it is much harder to pull the front end up. Not that this is bad, actually it is very good, the fronts stay stuck to the ground much better now for much improved cornering.
