What the heck is that supposed to mean.

Since when does a heavy front end have a place on an mx track? Knees straight out while railing a corner (from the wide seat-tank junction).

It's not that it has a heavy front end, the anti-squat/anti-dive rear suspension makes it difficult to wheelie if you aren't experienced. I would rather have that comin out of a corner on the gas than have the nose pointed skyward trying to finish a turn.

I have pic's in my Gallary of me doing one footed Wheelies on ice on my Predator (yes I have two legs and feet) lol

I had it studded in the winter about 1700 in the 4 stock tires hooked up extremely well as good as or better than ashpalt.

I only weight 135lbs and my raer suspension is at it's softest settings on the top and bottom of the shock with thw clicker or 4 and I can wheelie mine through the gears until 4th and extended wheelies are no problem at all, in fact I can ride them out farther and easier than on my 400ex which is a wheelie king with it's incredable torque but harder to balance.

Riding on the side two wheels is very hard, the rear tire will come up but the front likes to stay planted.

Endo's are hard also due to the anti-dive but are possiable with practice and I can pull them off easily now also but you really have to shift your weight forward and down other wise you'll just drag the tires

One Wheel wheelies are possiable also but also take alot of practice.

It's not a easy trickster bike, but when you do manage to pull it off it looks really sweet.
