I have never heard or seen anyone have one wheel on the ground at at time that would be hard.

Why would you want todo that? Doing wheelies I can understand.. my P700 will wheelie at ease, but why would you want to go onto one wheel?

hey atv123 do you need to hit a bump or rut before, or be on a incline before you start your wheelie on the kodiak 450? I have the same bike and i have to do this if its gonna be walkin' and talkin' . Are you able to do one from a dead stop on flat ground?

Yeah I can do one at a dead stop. It does require getting on it and pulling back at the right moment though. If I have a hill/incline, my Kodiak will wheelie w/ ease. To start out, you might want to put your right foot on the rear rack. Place your right knee on the seat with your left leg on the floorboard as usual. This allows a little more weight to be placed further back and makes wheelies easier. After you do this for a while, you'll get the hang of it. Have fun and be safe.
