Yea, you need to get those tires to stop spinning. Have you tried doing a wheelie on the pavement?

Don't be scar't. Ain't like your trying out for the X-games, just give it a try on pavement and I bet you can get the front end up.

Rider skill definatley plays a big role. I know my warrior makes decent power (mods in sig) and I have practically new tires. I can barely wheelie it in 1st gear because I don't have the skill yet since I don't get to ride it often. However, when I do ride, I go with one of my best friends, who is a very skilled rider. I think he does this just to **** me off...but he will jump on my warrior and ride the snot out of a wheelie in 1st and 2nd, and sometimes he can keep it up in 3rd. Then he jumps off and says "see...its so easy, you try it." I admit, it does look so easy watching him. But like others have said, I can't get past that fear of falling on my a$$. But alas, I am sure I would if I could ride it every day and practice.
