I don't think it is bad to not use the clutch. I learned to shift durning wheelies without using the clutch, then after I got good at doing them I now use it.

refused.... Just learning stay in like second gear and you can go as long as you can balance, once you get it down its alot more fun to shift through the gears while doing wheelies.

when i had my banshee i was riding a wheelie on the interestate ( to get to the riding area you had to ride alongside the interstate!) i started in first and was in fifth and the interstate on ramp was creeping up on my and the incline of the ramp sent me and my quad backwards and i started rolling and flipping! i had on a t shirt and sweatpants and a helmet! lets just say its a little painful wrecking on the pavement doing 50+ mph in sweats and a tee! i had to quit my job ( i couldnt gite out of bed due to losing the back of my sweats in the crash! i had road rash on my whole neck to calf area and ate one of my palms to the bone !) keep the story short 1 month later i finally could shower/ walk and found a new job and the only things wrong with my quad were a pipe mount and my grab bar! LESSON LEARNED!!!

Bad 350 twin im not going to start anything but part of why they try to outlaw atv's is for people that go down the interstate and do wheelies.. man keep it off the streets and if you where going to a trail just dont whellie.


just my 2 cents

Ime not shure what atv trail you where going to but if you where on the interstate it would probobly have been wiser to use a truck to haul it there. Im not shure abought Nebraska but Iowa does not alow atvs any where nere the inerstate, and seing as how nebraska is one of the most anti-atv states I know of I doubt they alow it either. Like the other guy said its people pulling stunts like that that give atvs a bad rap.
