It probably won't hurt it, but this is dangerous riding practice. You don't want to end up with a handicap sticker on your atv.

Hey, there's nothing wrong with wheelies. If done right, they are loads of fun. Few things are more exciting than riding a wheelie for a few yards. However, I would recommend a helmet. Even though all bikes today are equipped with a grabbar, there is still a chance for a rollover.

Automatic clutch bikes are usually harder to get a wheelie out of, but if you can get it up, they are usually easy to keep up and to ride because of the smooth powerband.
