Hey Pushin the limit A friend of mine( Mr Miller )gave me a video tape of some 400exs on a lake in central WI doing wheelies for miles on the glare ice .That wasnt you was it. Ill see if I can get it transfered to digital and post it .

 

Well none of ous have a vid. camara with us when we were doing this. BUT EVERYONE ON THE LAKE FISHING AND OTHER RIDERS JUST STOPPED WHAT THEY WERE DOING TO WATCH THIS KID RIDE A WHEELIE ALL THE WAY ACROSS THE LAKE LOL!!!! Unless someone else out there was taping us it can't be us........ Is there a BLACK DS650 in the vid.???? That would be my quad but my friend was riding along side me with my DS while I was on the 400. It's probably a different vid. BUT, it would be just like that lol!!

 

Nope it was from a helmet cam. After closer examination I recognize one of the stunt riders. These guys spend way to much time on the lake . Its amazing how the otshu pro wedge tire can give traction to do wheelies on glare ice. Even the guy filming with the helmet cam was doing a wheelie while filming. They could sustain a wheelie until they ran out of lake.

 

I rode one for about 75 ft. slipped of the back on accident and broke my tail bone. THat was the most pain I have been through in my life and haven't tried real long wheelies in a long time.

 

One of my old neighbors had a highly modified Honda Big Red, and well let me put it to ya this way, I think the only time the front end was touching the ground was when the thing was shut off. No joke. I'm not sure what his longest wheelie was, but it was at least the length of our road which is about 2 miles.

 

As far as the road is. On my 400ex you get your balance point and you can go for ever.

 

How do you measure a wheelie. I've been riding wheelies for years. And haven't measured one..[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-confused.gif[/img]

 

My longest one was probably like a mile, but I don't do them for distance very often. Like the others said, you can go forever. The only time I drop mine is when I'm going off the road or run out of room. A place like a lake or something like that would be sick.

my longest is like 20 ft because we dont have anywhere to do them and i just started a month ago.

 

I got a friend that will ride one on a Banshee for 2.2 miles. We measured it with a car. the only reasson he didn't go longer was because the motor blew and fly wheel broke intp piesces. He says put the banshee in 5th and hold it on the pipe and it goes forever
